Las Ventanas at Summerlin looked very nice, bright, and clean, but financially, I think it would be a little bit too expensive. You had to pay so much upfront to get in. The staff was great. They were a little pushy, but they seemed nice.

Las Ventanas at Summerlin is a buy in, so you have to pay up to $200 thousand dollars upfront. If she has to go to assisted, they will move her to another part of the building, and that was the biggest drawback. But it was a very modern facility. The staff was very good. I interacted with a couple of staff that was there, and they were very good. They also have three levels of care.

Las Ventanas has independent, assisted, and skilled nursing. My aunt is currently in independent living; however, she is awaiting assisted living, so she has caregivers. The facility is phenomenal. They also have a memory care center in the works. It should be open by early next year. They appear to be highly qualified. The facilities are immaculate, and they are very well kept. They have a good game plan for entertainment, as well as independence for their residents in the independent living. They have a separate area that is tied into the common areas where they can utilize the facilities in assisted as well as the independent. They have regular doctors that make visits on a weekly basis to the property, so they don't have to go travel and find a doctor.
They have an exercise room that is fully equipped. They have a swimming pool, a pool table, and a card room. They have a banquet/meeting room where they have movies. They have a concierge for the independent and for the assisted living, and basically, you could call in. They can take care of it. There's a craft room that my aunt hasn't had the chance to use.
There are a lot of things going on there. I was able to attend one of the evenings of entertainment, and they had a number of people from the local civic center come down who did some operatic music for them. They've had guest speakers. They had a lot of local candidates there just recently for their promotions. They provide transportation. They have field trips every week. They have a lovely dining room that's open 6 nights a week for seated dining. It's a beautiful facility. It is high dollar, but at the same time, you get what you pay for.

What I like about Las Ventanas was the fact that you could get moderate care all the way to total care if you needed it without having to move. I was able to get into their independent care and the staff all looked like they were very attentive. The residents seemed to be very happy with high energy.

Las Ventanas is a place that seemed to be very well run. It's neat, orderly, and clean. The place has a very homey feeling and they have an area where the residents could walk.

I have friends who live at Las Ventanas Retirement Community. The place is new, modern, and lovely. It's a high end facility and they are a bit expensive because of the fact that you need to buy the property. They have independent villas and high rise building. I think the villa that I was in is probably bigger than the house I am in right now. I like the fact that they have housekeeping once a week and meals are available.

Las Ventanas is a really nice assisted living community, in my opinion. My grandmother really liked it there. It is in a really nice part of town, which happens to be just a cat-jump away from our home. It was important to us that she was close to us so that we could visit her more often. The rooms are really nice and fairly spacious. The food is great, which I didn't expect from a nursing home. We were so happy that she was able to keep her Pomeranian, Lucky, with her at Las Ventanas. She loved that dog, and couldn't bear to part with him. Since most nursing homes don't allow pets, this was one of the best selling points for us. The staff was nice, but they seemed to be a bit apathetic at times. Grandma made a ton of friends while she was there, which played an important role in her treatment. My only complaint is that it was very expensive. My grandma needed a lot of care due to her condition, and the bills were pretty steep, even though the insurance covered a portion. All in all, it was probably worth the extra cost because she got the care that she needed in a beautiful environment.

Las Ventanas is great, and it's probably the best in town. The staff was very good, very caring, professional, and informed. The room is very pleasant and more like a hotel room. It's not institutional; it is very clean, bright, and airy, and it has a large window. It's definitely a place to consider when one needs skilled nursing or rehabilitation.

My friend was at Las Ventanas. I didn't like that facility at all. That's where she was when she became really ill. She was in a hospital, and when she got released, they told her she couldn't come back. It was a very elegant place, very beautiful, and very expensive, but the people that work there were very rude and very unhelpful. My friend was there for just short of a year. The room she was in was very nice, but there were a lot of extra charges. It became very, very expensive, and her money was very quickly running out because of all of those extra charges. With the inconvenience of her being sick, they locked her out. I would not recommend this facility to anybody. They need to improve the way that they care for and treat their residents.

Las Ventanas offers from independent care all the way to nursing care. It’s the only place in the entire state of Nevada that offers that. It's a huge place with several buildings because of the different types of care they offer. It's very modern and expensive as well. It’s going to cost you at least $100,000 just to move in, and then you have to buy your apartment. We met with their managers, and they walked us through, showing us the entire ground, the dining facility, and several different apartments. They have lots of activities for their residents. They keep them busy. I would recommend them because they are one of the places in Las Vegas.

Las Ventanas has more than what we really needed. The facility and the plans are fantastic. But it is more than what we are going to need in the next little while. So we just kind of set it aside in case we decide to finally come back. For one, the cost is way up there because it is a nicer community. We looked at three or four unfinished rooms. The size was sufficient for both the one and two-bedrooms. But none of them were ready to be moved into, so it was hard to judge. But both bedroom types have a den and a kitchen facility. They were nice, but it is more than what we needed in the next few years. They have a schedule for every day with different activities. They have a full gym, and outside they take them to different places for different events. Mainly right now, the cost is the only thing that keeps preventing us from going to that one.

Las Ventanas was clean, organized, and beautiful, but it was too expensive. I went on a tour and checked their library and their activity schedule; it was nice. They have basically the same thing, but their dining room was so formal. It was nice, and even the servers they’re dressed like butlers.
They are ideally located on the west side, and it’s accessible. They have field trips if you want to go to the casino and play and to doctor’s appointments; they really accommodate you.

These health care tax deductions are only available through Continuing Care Retirement Communities that offer a Life Care program such as Las Ventanas. As always, you should discuss your individual tax situation with your personal tax advisor.
