I liked Villa Santa Barbara. It was beautiful, but it was way too much for me. They showed me a very nice studio.

Villa Santa Barbara looked nice. There are like 120 residents, which is a comfortable size. The rooms and the apartments looked fine. They’re mostly studios, which is all my mother would need. The menu looked professional. The dining area is clean. For Santa Barbara, Villa Santa Barbara is very reasonable. I would recommend them to others.

If you were an able bodied person then Villa Santa Barbara would be a great place to go. If they need help being fed, they don’t do that. They have a dining room, so you have to go to the dining room and feed yourself. They do have nurses there. They won’t assist with feeding and incontinence care. You live on your own apartment. If you are completely ambulatory and independent that would be a good place. It would have been convenient for me, and it was moderately priced.

Villa Santa Barbara seemed nice. We were looking for, at least, a one-bedroom and they seemed pretty good but on the small side. The facility itself was very nice, but it’s not one that we’re considering at this moment. They have a game room and a small exercise room.

We visited Villa Santa Barbara, and they took us everywhere around the building. They showed us all the different areas that were available to everyone, the dining area, and where you could play cards or whatever. They showed me some rooms that were available to look out. They did a very good job. The room had a very nice setup. The dining area was very nice, and very busy. They had cards; you could sign up, and they could take you on trips. There is a casino in the area; so they could take you down there.

My mother in law was in this facility for approximately 5 years. At first when she didn't require much care it was fine. The food and aides at this facility are not what we thought they found be when she first moved in. There is a high degree of turn over in all positions in the kitchen and staff aides. They are incredibly negligent in all duties relating to medications. Once we realized how many errors were consistently being made and had gone to great efforts to resolve the issues with the facilities management but problems continued we made arrangements to move her to another facility that we thought would be much more professional. We were on a waiting list to move her to The Heritage House but she passed before an opening took place. I would strongly suggest not using the Villa.

I came to this facility in order to visit my great-aunt who has been living there for the past 4 months. I came to mainly insure that my great-aunt was getting the proper care that she needed while still be able to live a normal life. When I first arrived at the facility I realized that it wasn't your average care home. The residents there are able to live an easy life as if they were young again. I was blown away by the different ways they made the residents feel completely at home. The atmosphere was great and the apartments overlooked an ocean view. My great-aunt said she felt like she was living in an apartment without having to cook or clean. There are constantly nurses who are always available if needed and the residents are always able to have fun and not be stuck to a daily plan. The food wasn't too bad at all and the staff are extra caring and loving. They are always there to make sure a resident never feels lonely. Overall, I give this facility 5 star and would recommend it to anybody looking for a regular live with a little assistance.

I thought Villa Santa Barbara was a great place. They had very nice apartments and all kinds of good things. The dining area was very nice and there were lots of friendly people. I heard people saying that they have very good food. It was very clean and very well-run. They had a wonderful outdoor area. It was an excellent place, and the best place with the best value in Santa Barbara for what they provide.

Villa Santa Barbara was a beautiful facility. It's clean and well organized. The residents seem perfectly happy and content. If I had a place to live, I think that would be a nice place for me. The staff was lovely. We had a really nice tour -- very lovely people. We enjoyed the visit very much. The rooms were more like studio style apartments. They have basically all the amenities, the kitchen, and the dining room, so people don't need any more than a microwave oven or coffee pot in in the room. They serve food in the room for people who don't want to get out. They had a nice little library. I think it has everything that anybody could need.
