It’s expense, but it’s excellent.

Good things here are: new, good quality apartments and excellent food. Three healthy meals a day plus 24-hour snack options, special events, and ample menu choices. Good gym equipment and in-house office of 33-Health who provide superior physical therapy at additional cost. Intelligent activities and field trips Controlled size: because the facility is locked between other developments, this one can not expand, assuring it does not become too large and impersonal. Adjacent to Julian Park, so there’s nearby green space, a pretty little lake, and a useful “lung” in an urban area. Convenient proximity to shopping, good restaurants, medical care, transportation corridors, and the airport.... Read more

Everything we were hoping for and more. Amazing staff who are attentive to every detail, a talented chef who prepares excellent food and plenty of it, and tons of social interaction with new friends. There are fun and informative events daily. You really don’t have to leave the campus, but if you do it is conveniently located near restaurants, shopping, and cultural opportunities. A huge thumbs up!

Great place to live

It's brand new. There's no buy-in and month month rental; leave if you don't like it with 30 days notice. Everything is included in your rent. All utilities including cable, three meals a day and the food is delicious. Light housekeeping is done on a weekly basis. There's a fitness center, a library, a craft room, a lounge, a theater. One and two bedroom apartments are still available There are several three bedroom apartments but I think those are already rented. Pets are allowed though dogs are only allowed in first floor apartments I would definitely encourage anyone to visit and see if this is the right place for you or your loved ones.

It's like being on a permanent Cruise.

Staff is terrific, food is fantastic with choices, apartments are spacious, places always clean and orderly. A movie is showing every night. More than enough activities with importance on exercises. A beautician is available and physical therapy if ordered is available. There is nothing missing from this facility.

A Place for Mom has scored Julian Woods Retirement 9 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
