Sunshine Villa, A Merrill Gardens Community in Santa Cruz, CA
5.0

The friendliness of the staff members and care services really stood out to us. Overall it was a good first impression. The rooms are very nice, and before COVID our loved one really enjoyed the food and eating in the dining room. She said it was good, and the servers are awesome.

Whispering Pines Inn, LLC in Hollister, CA
5.0

Whispering Pines Inn has devotedly served the San Benito County for over 26 years. The management & staffs are caring & very responsive to their elderly residents. Being a caregiver is not an easy task. You have to have the heary & compassion which I have seen with the employees as well ad the owners who are there even on weekends. They are hands on in all they do!

Carmelo Park in Monterey, CA
5.0

It is smaller than the community next door. It depends on the individual; however, they have been able to accommodate a friend of mine into this community. The staff's communication and proactiveness about my friend stand out to me. They have been amazing to work with. The staff is nice, has a clean community, provide good care, and healthy food. I would highly recommend this community to others.
