My father-in-law is currently in Villa Marin, and it was very positive and very nice. I think it's pretty well run. The people are extremely nice and extremely helpful. The food is great; we've had dinner there several times before the pandemic. He's been there for a couple of years. So before the pandemic, we would go and have dinner there every once in a while with them, and food was always great. It's a different experience because it's independent, but they have good activities. He's very, very involved in the social activities there. They have movie nights and sometimes they have dances and he likes that. He's been involved in the resident advisory boards. It's pretty darn expensive; you have to buy in. It's not just paying a monthly rent. It's like a condo, so you have to come up with a lot of money upfront and then pay a monthly fee also. It's a nice place though.

If you have an issue with this facility good luck getting it resolved. The nurses in the skilled nursing facility are horrible. The CEO avoids issues when contacted. Lots of questions were left unanswered. Looks nice on the outside but would not recommend for my loved one.

Villa Marin has been a Godsend to my family member who was in dire straits before moving into the skilled nursing unit. Since her transfer there, she has had exemplary care by the nursing staff. I realize how difficult it can be to work in a skilled nursing facility and be pressed with the demands of so many patients, but the staff, all of them, jump through hoops to provide the best care possible. My family member is happy and feels her move there actually saved her life. If you are considering a move to a skilled nursing facility, do not hesitate to visit Villa Marin as a choice for care. You will never find the perfect care Center, but this place will be the closest you'll ever get.

My mom has been at Villa Marin for 5 years now. It feels like a condominium complex or an apartment complex. She has a regular apartment like a one-bedroom with a den, two bathrooms, and a kitchen. They have a dining room, and they provide meals. They have independent living, and then they also have skilled nursing care. They have a full range of social activities. They have classes, social gatherings, outings, and a bus service that goes shopping. As assisted living, they are a little disorganized in their information of how you access a lot of these things.

Villa Marin Retirement Residence wants a million dollars in your bank, and that’s a little bit out of my reach, but it is awesome. You name it, it has it, like tennis courts, swimming pools, everything. It’s high up on a hill and like a real country club. The gorgeous rooms were like two studios made into a living room and one-bedroom. It was a rental and I could afford it but not the million dollars in your checking account part.

After many years of a 5 star opinion of the whole place, I had to comment on an unforgivable incident where a 95year old hospice resident patient was denied a bed for an overnight stay because it was a holiday and "some paperwork" was missing. Told in the morning that this would be "no problem." But when night came, the duty nurse's pleas on the phone with the managing nurse, empty beds, and common sense, she was turned away. The manager "nurse" was apparently willing to leave the old lady sitting in a wheelchair in the hall all night. Reviewing the very expensive contract with Villa Marin for residents' medical care, they should lawyer up if this is the way it is gonna be honored - and perhaps review the mission statement and one employee's attitude.
