Residents and their families say:

This community receives high praise for its amenities, care, and environment from both employees and residents. The commitment to quality meals, meaningful activities, and professional healthcare services are frequently highlighted across reviews. Staff members are described as compassionate, caring, and professional, attending to residents' needs and keeping them engaged. The living spaces, both apartments, and villas, along with the communal areas, are appreciated for their beauty and maintenance. The grounds of the community are specifically mentioned for their attractiveness and peaceful nature, contributing to the overall serene and welcoming atmosphere.

However, some concerns have been raised regarding the facility's infrastructure and policies. Multiple reviews mention the need for updating in areas such as the gym equipment, cabinetry, and the health care area, which some believe could impact competitiveness with newer facilities. There are also comments about the management's decision-making, particularly in relation to enforcing visitor restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic and the handling of lease termination for residents requiring more care, indicating some dissatisfaction with administrative decisions and communication. Despite these few negatives, the overwhelming majority express satisfaction with the care, amenities, and community life at the facility, making it a recommended place for elderly care, rehabilitation, and independent living.
