My mom moved to Villa Valencia in June 2019. The first thing she said was she should have moved here earlier. We looked at several places, but Villa Valencia was the top choice by far. I certainly couldn't praise enough the quality of the entire staff, which is so important. There was genuine care and concern for the residents, real sincerity. Plus, it was the first time in a few years my mom actually gained needed weight. The menus for each meal have terrific choices, and are wonderfully prepared. And the residential units are extremely well designed, with care and consideration for what an independent person or one needing assistance needs to be fully comfortable. There are also lots of social activities one can participate in. A well-run and extremely well-equipped place that goes the extra mile to provide the comfort and care residents need. Villa Valencia is truly a special place, and it shows not only in my mom's attitude, but all those I've met and come to know during my visits.

The recommendations of others is key in determining whether or not a facility can be trusted to provide the support and care that you or your loved one needs. Since needs vary by individual not all recommendations will have importance, therefore you need to rely less on a specific review and more on the overarching message that the reviews convey. When it comes to Villa Valencia and its reviews take note of a very important message that can be seen in most all of the reviews.... they don't just meet expectations they exceed expectations. Not an easy task for one of the premier assisted living facilities in the country. They set high expectations and yet continually exceed them. From clear upfront pricing without sales pressure, to ease of doing the necessary paperwork they make you feel welcome and valued. No surprises! The facility staff from administration to medical and support personnel at all levels are there for you and your loved one. This is truly a team of professionals at all levels striving together to make your experience exceed your expectations and they do. They care and it shows! we could name a lot of names and yet there would be many more whose names we do not know, from the great staff at the front desk, to the back office, from housekeeping to the dining room, from the medical technicians and nurses to the resident assistants, they all contribute to the Villa Valencia experience. Even with the construction that they are undergoing which will make this facility even more beautiful, their passion for their jobs and genuine concern for their residents shines through. The Villa Valencia team is family and when you become a resident you become a part of that family. We feel fortunate to have become a part of that family during this past month.

Family friend moved into Villa Valencia not too long ago. When going to see her new home we felt welcomed. Staff were all polite, professional and courteous. During lunch we were impressed by the servers and the managers who asked how everything was (just like an upscale restaurant). Food was great, options were more than plentiful and the whole building was clean (even during construction). Her apartment was very large, had so much storage and a great view! Cant wait to see everything after the construction.

My mom moved in to the facility in October and the experience has been awesome. She loves her room and the food is great. She is starting to meet friends and the staff is friendly and very helpful. Wanted to move her to a facility closer to me in Long Beach but she did not like any of them. Although Villa is 30 miles from my house, I am very happy about our decision and mom seems very happy with a tough transition from being on her own to an assisted living environment. Would highly recommend to friends with parents having similar needs.
