La Vida Llena had the best outdoor space out of all the places I visited. They had two lovely pools where they could do water aerobics. They would start as independent and then assisted living. Then if you have dementia of any kind, they have assistance for that. They even have a medical unit with nursing staff if you need to be with health care every day. So, they have all levels there. It's an expensive facility and it's large, but if you run out of funds, they have some kind of program to help you meet the difference. The person who took us was someone they called an ambassador. She lives there and she takes visitors around, which is a very nice idea. She even showed us her own apartment and everything. She's very generous with her time. The food was OK. It was very varied.

By far the largest number of residents at LaVidaLlena are in the Independent Living areas, so it is a very active community. My husband and I moved here in 2015, both fully mobile but seeking a place where we knew we would be taken care of should we need assistance. He died three years ago without ever staying in any of our care units, but we did have help from several nurses and aids right in our apartment during his final illness. They were unfailingly cheerful, competent and professional. For the past year during Covid-19, when we were sheltering for everyone's safety, our Life Enrichment Department went to work immediately designing exercise, lectures and other programs on our in-house TV station and online to keep us sane and happy. Normally there is an abundance of lectures, classes, day trips, exercise classes, chances to attend Popejoy Hall events, too many activities to list. Walking among our beautiful grounds is a favorite pastime which was never curtailed. We are all looking forward to the day soon when the life we knew before 2020 resumes here. Our newly remodeled Health Care Center with private suites looks fabulous, and the new Assisted Living/Memory Care building does as well. There are 40 new, upscale apartments going up in the new 6000 building on north campus, with both these new buildings nearing completion, so the excitement about them is growing. The future looks very bright at La Vida Llena, and I am so happy to live here!

La Vida Llena was great. It felt very warm and welcoming. The residents were happy. It goes all the way from independent living to skilled nursing care. They had no openings at the time, but there was a waiting list. They had transportation to places and because it's multiple care level, it seemed like a happy place. I saw a lot of residents walking around. They had a dining room, meal plans, a separate little grill area, and a little convenience store where they had hot dogs, chips, and candy. I felt very comfortable there. If I needed a place to be as a senior, that would be a good place to go. You could stay there until your dying days.

La Vida Llena probably have the best amenities compared to any other place, like a gym, and lots of activities. They do have a fairly large buy-in, they do mention that upfront, and it covers your rent after you run out of money. The rooms were about the same size as other places I have been to. They also told me about the activities that they have. The staff is friendly and the building is fairly up-to-date and modern.

We have friends in La Vida Llena. It's very nice. My friends are very happy there. The wife has developed memory issues but she is well taken care of. She is very happy about that. One time they invited us to have dinner with them, and the food was pretty good. They have different restaurants, so you could pick anything you want. I think it is very good because if you have only one place to eat, no matter how good the chef is, you're going to be tired of the food repeating and repeating. I saw the schedule and the whole week is full of activities.

About La Vida Llena in Albuquerque, New Mexico
La Vida Llena means "the full life." Four local churches saw a need for a retirement community that could provide an independent, active lifestyle, with customized levels of care to meet residents' needs through life's aging process.
Part of the full life is having easy access to a wide variety of senior living options: activities, services, and choices. Instead of driving all over town between the bank, hair salon or wellness class, now you've got time to read another chapter or work on your putting stroke. Rather than spending the morning tending the lawn, you can finally try your hand at ceramics, volunteer at a local museum, make toys for young children or swim some laps at the pool.
Amenities and Services include:
- Heated, indoor swimming pool and Jacuzzi
- Well-equipped fitness center, with personalized exercise and wellness programs
- Carving
- Studios and workshops for artists and hobbyists including a ceramics studio, an art room, a fiber arts room with a weaving loom, a unique model railroad room and workshop
