Assisted Living
My loved one was previously a resident at Sky Vista and the overall experience at this facility was great. The move in process was great. The staff, housekeeping and communication with the family were all excellent. I would recommend Sky Vista to others. I am 85 years old and I told my kids that Sky Vista is my next home!
Their meals were outstanding! We love love love The Renaissance! Unfortunately my mother-in-law couldn't get along with her neighbor so it was her problem, not the communities, but we decided to move her out. We're still sad that it didn't work out.
I love them. I am very happy with it. The communication with me is very good, and they keep me informed. They take good care of her, and the food looks good and is appealing, when I have seen it.
