After looking at several retirement communities in East County and in North County, I was extremely…read morehappy to find La Vida Real. It's well organized, clean, professionally staffed, and very reasonably priced. It was easy to make the decision to move my parents in because there is only a small move-in community fee ($1k) that is sometimes waived all together. Pricing is for studios, 1 Bed or 2 Bed units. And it's extremely flexible in that you only have to give 30 days notice to vacate without any further charges. The activities are well organized- a great balance between social events, physical activities, mental challenges. Top picks include smoothie socials, bingo, chair yoga, coffee and doughnuts. My dad is stubborn and picky and he has finally settled in and enjoys being here.

Every resident has personalized decor and care. Sometimes when Im there it feels like im treating someone in an individual home rather than a facility. I have yet to have a bad experience there.

Upon first meet Ana was kind, professional, sweet and full of knowledge about the (ALW) Assisted Living Waiver program and about the staff, the entire aspects of the Gardens. My mom had worked there for about 35 years and they welcomed her back as a resident with open arms. Ana always was there to answer questions quick to respond on emails and calls. Working with Ana was a fantastic experience; she was incredibly knowledgeable and efficient". Ana always displayed high-level professionalism and made the entire process stress-free. I highly recommend talking with Ana when considering this property for your loved ones. Ana went above and beyond to solve our issues or concerns I had. I did look at other properties in San Diego and they looked and felt like dorms or prison not to match the price. The Gardens had the lowest price for the best clean rooms and staff, the caregivers are very nice always there when needed. The Gardens felt like Family Ana made us feel like family. My mom is happy and safe. My 2 concerns: 1: with the wait staff and servers most of then were nice and friendly but a handful were always grumpy and just not professional.. They are not quick to see if someone comes in to eat and take there order or even clear the tables so other people can come in and sit. Note: I saw a server not on break in the kitchen area just eating chocolate Ice Cream, I thought Really!!!! 2: They need better activities all day even if only a handful of people are there: Example when they go in trips they should have something going on if you don't go. Maybe different type of activities if you are not a "Religious person" on Sunday. OVER ALL 5++++STAR for Ms Ana above and beyond... I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Calling her take a tour.. Make the Gardens a Forever home for a loved one..

Our brother has been living at Grossmont Gardens for approximately a year and a half. Initially he…read morewas in Assisted Living. Unfortunately, due to the progression of his dementia, he was moved to Memory Care. He has been living in the San Diego area for more than 50 years and although he has many friends, (who look in on him regularly), he has no relatives nearby. It is for that reason, that both myself and another sibling, we are dependent completely on the care and care givers at Grossmont Gardens. We could not be more pleased. Their communication, kindness and concern has given us a sense of relief. We are all very appreciative of the genuine warmth given to our brother.

My Dad has been at MesaView for a little over a week. I can't say enough good things about this…read morewonderful place. They have the best of a board and care and the best of a facility and none of the bad of those places. I've spent at least 5 hours a day there every day and the staff have shown over and over that they really care. They have made efforts above and beyond my expectations to make my Dad feel at home, cared for, and even loved. They have also made me and my family feel at home when we are there. Dad's dementia got so much worse that we could no longer care for him. They worked with us to get him in and comfortable so quickly after a fall at home that made his needs dramatically worse. They moved him closer than we had arranged so they could keep a closer eye on him and be quicker to help him. I love that there are plenty of people there that just need assisted living too. The variety is so good for him. The pet tortoise there provides Dad with entertainment that suits him. They have activities programmed that are wonderful too. The grounds are beautiful. Gigi and Iliana run this place so well. Wonderful staff, wonderful facilities, wonderful price, wonderfully administrated, and the meals look amazing. They did stock my Dads favorites when he did not want to eat and now he is eating again. I met the owner, Jeff, and he seems to be genuinely kind too. Every day I feel more and more confident that he is in the best place I could ever hope for. Thank you to Gigi, Iliana, Sonia, Chris, Carlos, Daniel, Carina, Alia, Maria and the rest of the staff for your patience and care! I hope to learn the names of more of you. It's just this place is well staffed and I'm still learning names.

My beautiful mother has been a resident at MesaView Senior Assisted Living for almost two years…read more My mother has dementia. Having to place my mom into a facility was a difficult and painful decision. But my mother needed care to keep her safe, more care than I was capable of safely providing her. So in dealing with the guilt of this decision to place her in a facility, I feel beyond blessed to have found MesaView Senior Assisted Living. To begin, Genoveva was warm, understanding, reassuring and welcoming. It was a rough time to move her, as it was also during COVID. But, Genoveva made the move seamless, in doing everything to make my mother feel safe and comfortable, as well as us. The facility is beautiful! An inviting and renovated room to call her own (we decorated with her personal belongings). A fantastic large open yard for her to be outside and enjoy, which was important for her and to us. There is even a large turtle that roams freely, as well as birds that sing, to put a smile on all the residents faces. The facility is smaller, cozy and more charming than a larger facility. I never feel like my mother will be confused or lost among too many people; I have observed how she smiles as she recognizes the people there (even with her dementia). The staff is absolutely incredible! The staff are always helpful, professional, kind, warm and friendly to the resident's and their needs, as well as the families. You can always hear them cheerfully greeting the residents by name even when just walking by. They are fantastic in their communication with me about medications and any concerns I or they may have about my mother. They are available 24/7 for any of your questions or concerns. Let me add, they did a fantastic job for the resident's safety during COVID times. The food...they strive and take pride in providing very healthy meal plans for the residents, with respect for meeting individual's needs as well. I am so VERY grateful for the amazing staff, they are truly the best!!! Now that Covid is relaxing guidelines, more activities are opening up for the residents and their families at MesaView. They have a calendar of daily activities available for the resident's enjoyment. They also plan special holiday family days, which are always lovely to participate in. I could go on forever about the many good things MesaView Senior Assisted Living has to offer. I feel blessed and happy my mother is safely in their care. I more than highly recommend MesaView Senior Assisted Living to anyone that wants their loved one in a place that feels like home.
