Independent Living Communities in Woodland Hills, CA

"I have toured Ivy Park at Simi Valley. It was a beautiful facility, very clean, and there's lots of activities. They seem to be able to provide the care that my sister needed. The people that I met there were all nice. Everybody was very, very nice. They were extremely informative. They answered all my questions. They were excellent. The dining area was beautiful. I liked the fact that they have the kitchen open. You could go down there pretty much any time during the day, so they have flexible eating hours, so that's good."

"We toured Oakmont of Agoura Hills. The one who took us through was lovely, very enthusiastic, and couldn't have been more helpful. She showed us all the different types of rooms and showed us all the activities. Everyone seemed very engaged. It was just lovely. Their atrium is beautiful. They have activities all day long. You can participate in them or not. The rooms were quite large and really, really well done. We saw some that people had decorated. They were actually nicer than the ones I saw at the other community. These were lovely. They had a very nice dining room. I think there were two different dining rooms. Parking seemed fine to me. We just pulled in, and it was fine."

"The Ridge at Westlake Village was very tidy, nice, and new. I hardly saw any residents, and it seemed kind of empty. It has a beautiful deck on the top, but you're not looking out at anything very pretty. They're just buildings. It just seemed not personal at all. It was very nicely done, but that was it. The rooms were very nice, but the whole thing kind of felt a little cold. We didn't see much interaction with anybody, so you didn't get a real feel for it. The dining area looked nice. The whole thing was nice and brand new. They have a patio on the roof, and it is beautiful. However, there wasn't much ambiance. It was really well done. Parking was easy, and it was very nice, but it didn't have much feel to it. The staff was nice, but wasn't nearly as enthusiastic as the lady at the other place. I didn't try their food, but they gave us a box of probably the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever had in my life."

"I liked Simi Hills a lot. It felt very warm and homey there. The apartments were large, which was nice. They showed me their schedule, and they had their shuttle, happy hour, and barbecues. The décor was a little dated. The staff were casual, friendly, easy going, vivacious, and fun. "

"My friend and I went to Atria Hillcrest. It was very bright, a newer facility, and very well decorated. It was very pleasant to walk into. The outdoor facilities and the little courtyards they had were beautiful. And it was in a community that was a bit isolated. So, it wasn't noisy. It was quiet and serene there. The staff was very knowledgeable and gave us extensive tours. We saw several rooms. They tried to meet our needs. They asked my friend what she likes to do, and what kind of things she would be able to do in the facility, and then pointed those things out, the movie theater, and the music that's played."

"Beverly Hills Carmel Retirement Hotel is a five star facility. Staying in this facility is like staying in a hotel. The staff members are cheerful, welcoming and full of energy. The facility is well decorated and clean. Loved ones are well taken care off. This facility is five out of five and I would hifgly recommend. "

"I went to look at Laurel Heights. The facility was really nice. The people were nice. The amenities were excellent. The restaurants looked nice."

"I toured Westmont of Culver City. The facilities are very new. It is very nice, clean and organized. It looks like there's a lot of space, and the staff seems to be quite professional. The staff members were very responsive, too. They greeted us quickly and they took care of us. They seemed very helpful and professional. They offered us some snacks and drinks, but we didn't take any. The atmosphere felt okay but it felt like a shopping mall. The layout of the rooms was very modern. There are wide hallways and high ceilings, so it felt very open."

"Palm Court may not be the newest retirement community around, but I'm so glad I placed my loved one there! The community has a certain charm to it and the entire staff is excellent...many have worked at Palm Court for quite some time, which is not standard in this industry. I don't know why other people have complained about the food--my loved one residing there and I think it's very tasty! It must be tough to make 3 meals a day for 90 or so residents that everyone will enjoy. Everyone has different taste buds, likes and dislikes, and an opinion of how food should be cooked and prepared. Also, each apartment has a kitchenette so residents are able to purchase some of their favorite foods desired that the community may not offer. My loved one also gets daily housekeeping services, which are not offered at other communities unless you want to pay extra. And, the activities at Palm Court are top notch! There is always something to do! Plus, residents have the added bonus of living right next to the Culver City Senior Center for extra activities. I would highly recommend Palm Court to anyone!"

"Belmont Village of Hollywood Hills has the resources when it comes to specialty care. They offer a variety of services in this senior community and my grandmother is currently receiving Alzheimer's care.The price to stay at Belmont Village is comparatively affordable when you look at the costs for other assisted living locations in the San Fernando Valley. This facility is well kept and right in the middle of Hollywood. You can walk or take a quick drive to restaurants and the location is great for seniors who like to go out for outings.My grandmother loves the location because she is so close to major attractions and is only a quick ride away from where they film "The Price is Right." More importantly, it is only a few miles from major hospitals and Kaiser on Sunset. The staff is made up of well-trained professionals who are very friendly. They even recommend a place of worship in the neighborhood and there are numerous churches in the surrounding area. "

"I was very impressed by CityViewVilla's facility. They had an awesome area on the roof where me and my client spent most of our time, overlooking the city. It is very close to Hollywood and right on a main bus line at La Brea - making for an easy commute to the store and back 24/7. The rooms were very neat also. My client's room in particular was decorated very fancy, with lush pillows and nice paintings lining the wall. He had no complaints whatsoever about the place or about the staff when I asked. He also said that the "food was very good" here and I got to see the dining area, which was like a European-style fancy restaurant. "

"So far, my stay here at Scholl Canyon Estates Gracious Retirement Living has been good. It's a very nice community with very nice administration. They are very accommodating. The people are great, and I've made several friends since I've been here. They might need a little improvement in their food, but they had good choices. Everything is nice and very well kept up. The staff is the one that's a plus to me, in how gracious they are for whatever it is that you need. They have a few staff that need some training, but overall, they're very good. The building is very clean and very presentable, with pictures on the wall. Everywhere you walk, it's just beautiful. They have activities and things, and they're going to have a line dance pretty soon. They take you on trips and shopping, too. They have games here and movies. I haven't attended any of those activities yet because I have things outside of this already that I have to get together before I can settle in. It's a bit pricey when I compare it to others, but they are kind of neck and neck with a majority of these facilities. When I talked to the head, Eileen, she was just kind of impressive to me because she was very down-to-earth. That was the first time I've dealt with any type of retirement living place, and they are the first ones that I called, and Eileen just made me feel so comfortable. She helped me get past my fears and encouraged me to come over and see her, talk with her, and see the place. Even though I couldn't get there at the time that was convenient for them, she was able to put the time later enough for me to be able to still come. I came late and brought my sister with me, and they were still very accommodating. It was as late as six or seven, and that was the only time I had. They were very pleasant. She made me feel at home. She let me see the place, and it was so beautiful. We just fell in love with her and the place on the same day. Even though there are other beautiful places that I was referred to that were just as nice, there's something about Eileen that brought my attention back here, that makes me feel very welcomed. As we walked through the hallways, it just really lifted me. I didn't know these places were like this. I didn't know this is what senior living was like. It's been like that since I've been here. It's just very gracious and very beautiful. I brought my friends here to see it. They're very impressed. So, I'm good here."
