The physical setting, the public spaces, and the individual apartments distinguish Atria Marina and all make for an extremely inviting place in which to live. I have a roomy one bedroom which features a double windowed living room, a large entry way and well laid out bathroom with a bit extra space. As for the public spaces: a windowed wall makes for a pleasant dining setting. Public sitting rooms on the resident floors add a place to hangout when not participating in a program. The community of Marina Bay with its boardwalk is within walking distance for mobile residents. I found front desk, maintenance, dining room, and program staff universally friendly and helpful. Everyone called me by name right off. The dining room staff go out of their way to remember what I like and Mark, the chef, has been very helpful in accommodating my specific dietary needs. The food is definitely a cut above average. It's always well prepared, never overdone, and the portions are sizeable. Because of Covid-19, the same choices are available for lunch and dinner currently, but I'm told that historically that was not the case. Activities are scheduled continuously from morning into the evening and feature regular "brain activity" sessions and bus trips to surrounding areas. Stephanie who heads programming has been with the place for many years and interviewed me at length when I came in to get to know me personally. I cannot say enough about her interest and efforts to acclimate me to my surroundings when I moved in. There has been some turnover in top management recently, but it has not affected my living experience.

I like Atria Marina Place. It was nice. They helped me. They were the first ones I went to, so they answered a lot of questions. They were very friendly and very empathetic. The people were very nice. Very well maintained. The staff was attentive. They have a schedule monthly board, and it showed the activities planned for each day of the month. It's very interesting. They had a wide range of social, arts and entertainment activities for the month.

Somebody has recommended and sent us over to Atria Marina Place, so that's where my sister is going. It's close to family, and we liked the options available to her and the fact that she can go from assisted living at a level 1 care straight through like a memory care situation. It seemed very social and very clean. The food looked great. The tour was good. Everything looked good, but mostly the proximity to the family and the fact that they have services that we were looking for, are the reasons why we chose them. For amenities, they have a dining room, a front foyer, a patio for outdoor dining, meeting rooms, and a hair salon. They also have a private dining room that you could reserve if you have like 10 people for dinner or something like that. The staff who gave the tour was very professional.

Atria Marina Place looked decent. The person I talked to there was good. He took us around and showed us everything and explained everything to us. I think his name was Kevin and he was very friendly. He showed me all the areas where they cook and all the places that the residents hang out. It's really lovely. The room that was shown to us was refurbished. It's a really nice place. Everything is just up to date and I really love the place. It was clean. They have a patio, a salon, bingo, and games that they play.

My friend might be able to move into Atria Marina Place. It's near me, and it's small. I thought that she would do better in a smaller facility where she could walk around and find her way around. The apartment that I'm looking at is right near the elevator. Everything is handy. The dining room was right near the elevator. That was my main concern, her eating and socializing without fear of getting lost. It is convenient to where I live so that I can go see her any time. The other thing I like about it is it's smaller and there's a lot of staff there. Everyone seems nice. I saw the activities that they have, and she'll have a great time if I can get her to participate. The activities looked good. The people seemed friendly and nice. They gave me a package and it had a page that included a sample menu, and that looked good. I like it. I wouldn't try and put her in it if I didn't like it. I didn't see anything negative. The director, the person who took me on the tour, was excellent. I can't assess the staff because I only smiled at them and said hello. I didn't interact with them, but they were friendly enough for me to feel comfortable that my friend would be comfortable there. It's clean. I wouldn't go back if I didn't think it was good.

Atria Marina Place was very lovely and was more upscale than the other place I toured. It was very nice, very well-appointed, and clean; it looked like a hotel. The staff that we met were very friendly, very social, very warm, and affectionate towards the residents. It was a very good experience. There was a barber shop, a beautiful dining room, they had a beautiful library. It was very nice and seemed to cater to a wealthier clientele.

I toured the assisted living of Atria Marina Place. I thought the area itself was really beautiful. I liked it because I've been around the Marina Bay area before. It was in a very quiet, sort of secluded, area. They had a library and a room where they did their activities. I liked the fact that they said that if you want food, you don't have to go to a scheduled time because it would always be available in the cafeteria. The person who interviewed me was very good. He told me about what I would have to pay upfront or if there is insurance. He gave me everything about the figures and went over them thoroughly with me. They did not offer me a meal but gave me a box of chocolates and it was very nice of them to do that.

We went to look at Atria Marina Place. The facilities were very beautiful. The staff was very nice, friendly, and accommodating. They had a beautiful outdoor area. We spoke with the kitchen staff, and she told us about the food options, the service they provide, and their sitting accommodations. They had a nice reading area and library. The apartments were new, with a lot of natural lighting, and very spacious. When we were touring, they had an exercise class going on, and they had the residents engaged in that.

Atria Marina Place was very good. They're very clean, and the staff was responsive to all of my questions. What I liked best was the location and the people. The cookie they gave me was good. They had multiple classes and activities, an exercise room, a library, and dining areas. The outdoor space was very good. It's near where my mother lives, and it's near hospitals and restaurants.

We are going to go with Atria Marina Place for my mom. They have friendly and professional staff. The facility itself is nice, clean, and bright. It is very close to the ocean, and it is close to Boston. Those were the factors that stood out to me. We had lunch the last time we were there, and the food was pretty good. They're doing great.

My wife moved into Atria Marina Place. I think they're all very, very good. Excellent. The most I like is their honesty with me with what's going on, but I wish they were more honest with me. I don't like surprises. The staff was very nice. I think there needs to be a contact person when someone like me is approaching them for placement . There needs to be someone who will give me all the directions that I need to know straight up. I find that I 've been getting miscommunications. He's got a private, little apartment, with a kitchen, a private bath, a living room/bedroom setting arrangement, and a door with a key.

My overall impression of Atria Marina Place was positive. It seemed like a vibrant community, and the food seemed to be good, and the staff pleasant. The facilities looked good. They have a gym. It's a place I would like to live myself. The activities seemed interesting. There were things that you would want to do. The facilities could be a little bit more expansive, but for what it was, it was lovely. I saw a current events discussion and I heard that music was going to be there that night.

They were very nice and good in Marina Place. The staff tried everything, but my mom was just not happy. She is 95 and has been living on her own all these years, so it was a big adjustment for her as it was for myself and my family. She did not want to leave her room and did not want to eat. It was just not working out. The facility itself is lovely; you would not want for anything there. It is very, very nice. The dining area was very big, and my mother felt it was like going to a restaurant and sitting there by herself. They have activities, but she would not go out of her apartment.

My mother was a recent resident of the Atria at Marina Place. My mother was very ill so I spent many hours at the Atria. The staff from the dining room to the Managing Director takes an active interest in all residents, everyone knows your name. The facility is clean. The staff is professional, kind and conscientious. This facility is about engaging life no matter where you are on your life journey. I would definitely recommend this facility to anyone who has an elderly relative who is in need of assistance.

My mom has been at Atria Marina Place Assisted Living for about 6 months. I looked at many assisted living places, as I was fearing for my mom's safety. She was reluctant to leave her home, where she had lived for over 45 years, but between the gas stove and the stairs, I was afraid she was an accident waiting to happen. I chose Atria Marina Bay for my mom as I was impressed with the cleanliness of the facility, the many activities, and most of all, the staff. I have not been disappointed. I had to bring my mom to the hospital once, as the staff noticed a change in her behavior, which may not have been noticed or discovered had she still been living alone. Mom is eating better and has made many friends, and I truly believe she is better off than she was 6 months ago. She is much more engaged and alert. There is always something to do and someone to do it with. If the staff notices that she is not participating, they will knock on her door and encourage her to attend whatever activity is going on. I sleep better knowing she is being well taken care of. Ideally my mom would still be in her own home, but even she has admitted that if she cannot be in her own home, then Atria Marina Place is the next best thing.

My Mom has always been a vivacious, independent person so when it was time to find assisted living accommodations, I diligently, carefully and considerately researched the choices. I knew we were starting at the independent living level and wanted a place where more advanced levels of care were also available. It was easy to choose Atria Marina Place as Mom's next home. First impressions of the Atria were that it is in a wonderful location with a beautiful appearance and is obviously well-kept. Entering the Atria, I saw that it is a safe and secure building, planned so that residents can easily get around, and has a lovely interior that gives you a feeling of brightness and comfort. The Atria has various rooms where Mom can enjoy activities and entertainment, relax, dine and even get her hair done. The front porch and side patio are also delightful places to enjoy the outdoors while still being on property. There are several apartment types to choose from and Mom's one bedroom "house" even has a view of Marina Bay and the Boston skyline. I would give the Atria building itself an "A". The staff gets an "A+". Atria Marina Place personnel are friendly, knowledgeable, positive, and engaging. Every staff member knows each resident's name. That is because they respect and care for their residents; they treat them like family. They know my name and I know their names, too, because they greet me, make themselves available to me, and contact me with information they think I might want to know (not just need to know). I feel like they happily give my Mom all the individual time and attention she needs and they do the same for me. From the Executive Director, to the Engage Life, Life Guidance, Sales, and Resident Care Directors, aides, Chef and kitchen/wait staff, reception, maintenance, personal care, memory unit "“ everyone -- even volunteers, I am extremely impressed. And when it comes to my Mom's health and happiness, my standards are very, very high. This is not just a flowery infatuation. The Atria was tested and won the day: Sometimes things happen in life that are difficult to deal with and Mom had such a situation. The staff at the Atria faced the challenge head-on and resolved the issue in a personal and professional manner. The Atria staff proved that they're not just capable "“ they are naturals. It has been about three years now since Mom made the Atria her new home. As her care needs grow, the Atria will still be my choice for Mom's home. Mom loves living at the Atria and I love Mom.

I visited 3 different assisted living facilities in the greater Boston area before finding Atria Marina Place. My dad and mom were in their late 80's and it was clear they were missing out on life by staying in their home of 55 years. We brought them to see Atria Marina Place and almost immediately they saw all the benefits of community, comfort and safety afforded to them. Plus, my dad was tired of shoveling snow in NE winters and cutting the grass in the summer. That was over 5 years ago, and even though my mom has since passed away from Alzheimer's, my Dad is going strong at 92! When my mom was in declining health with this disease, it was crucial to her well being and that of my dad to have a memory unit in the same building where he lives. That way my mom could go to Alzheimer's day care during the day and my dad had some down time for himself without anxiety. They spent each evening together in their apartment and it gave them great joy to be together until those final days. The staff is superb!!! My husband and I don't live in New England, but we feel very connected with what is going on in my dad's life. This would not be possible except for the caring and consistent way both he and my mom have been treated. We cannot say enough good things about our decision to entrust their safety, well being and happiness to the Atria Marina Place team.

My mother has been a resident of Atria Marina Place for five years, first in independent living and for the past two years in the Memory Impairment Unit. To anyone considering Atria for themselves or a family member, I would offer this advice - do everything in your power to make it happen! When it became apparent my mother's dementia was worsening, I was sure no one would care for her the way I would. I very quickly learned I was wrong. The staff is just incredible and it starts at the top. The Executive Director constantly makes herself available to residents and family members and is so involved I actually found her shoveling a path in the snow last winter so a family member could take a resident out! I am fortunate to be able to visit my mother every day and I constantly witness the staff's gentleness and kindness to residents when they are not even aware I am observing them. I have made myself available to talk to someone who may be considering Atria Marina Place and wish to talk to a family member in addition to the staff. The sadness of watching my mother's deterioration has been greatly lessened by having her at Atria.
