I visited this facility I'm on a wait list for Villa Gardens in Pasadena. I've talked to some residents. It's off the top of the chart, but it's also a buy-in community. It's very expensive. The rooms are beautiful. They've got waitstaff in the dining rooms. They've got beautiful bistros that are open 24 hours a day. It's got the nicest physical therapy facility. They've got a staff person there for eight hours a day, five days a week with no charge. It's ideal in many ways, ... read more

I visited this facility We like Villa Gardens, but Pasadena has its own health rules. They couldn't eat in the dining room or anything, so they were delivering meals. The hallways had chairs outside where they'd put the trays down and it just made the hallways look junky. They looked like a motel. They didn't look like a nice residential place, and it felt more like assisted living than independent living in the apartments. There just seemed to be not as much flexibility. There didn't seem to be as much a... read more

I visited this facility A friend of mine referred me to a place called Villa Gardens. This place was amazing.If I could put my dad in there, I would. They were independent living. They did have a rehab, which I'm very much interested in. They're going to call me back tomorrow about it. The place was for the wealthy, and the dining room was beautiful. The menu was amazing. It had a library that was beautiful. I saw both the rehab center and their independent living. The grounds are amazing, and the gardens were just... read more

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident My mother has been an active resident of Villa Gardens for over 12 years and has loved every minute of it. The apartments vary in size, but all are bright and sunny with balconies and pleasant views, and even the assisted living/hospital sections are well-appointed and homelike. Apartments have kitchen/no-kitchen options and are designed for freedom of living. There is a library, store, salon, computer café, and a number of other important amenities which create a homelike... read more

I visited this facility Villa Gardens was great. The person who led the tour was fantastic. The residents seemed super happy and very friendly. They're doing some construction now to revamp their entry and other things, but it looked great. Their facility looked good. They had an outside pool that looked like a great place for everyone to hang out or get into the pool and use. They had a small rehab facility which was more than adequate. The rooms looked nice and comfortable. I liked the fact that you can individualize ... read more

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident My stepmother lives in Villa Gardens. It's very attractive and pleasant. It has a large exercise and meeting area and excellent dining facilities and staff. The rooms have large windows and lots of light. I've been to their exercise activities and lectures, which were all excellent, particularly the exercise.

I am/was a resident of this facility My children put us here in Villa Gardens because they felt that we would need help in case we fell. My impression is that we do not belong here. The staff is good, and the place is good, but the food is not. They have a lot of activities, but not the kind that we like. We like to play cards, go to the theater, and do a lot of activities, and most of the things here are lectures. We are in an unusual situation. There is a 40-people waiting list, so we are in a small apartment, and it is ve... read more
