We ended up not moving my mother to this community because it was too far from my home. Also, there was limited parking to the point where we were afraid to park on the street. The rooms were all very nice and it seemed like a great affordable place, but it was not what we were looking for.

I recently had a first-hand experience with Monte Vista Village with my 90 year-old Uncle that couldn't have been more positive. From my first phone call inquiry to Tracy [removed], all of the Staff has been incredibly responsive and helpful. My situation was unusual because of my Uncle's unique attachment to his dog, Bella. The Staff at Monte Vista Village went WAY beyond my expectations in welcoming and accommodating my Uncle and Bella. Monte Vista Village itself is a wonderful place with beautiful grounds and attractive and clean facilities. The activities are also fantastic - lots of parties, happy hours, live music, exercise classes and more. The transportation department has gone above and beyond the call of duty on more than one occasion to serve the needs of my Uncle. I have also been extremely impressed with the medical care. Monte Vista Village's medical coordinator, Myka Go, has been fantastic in communicating with me and arranging mobile doctors and nurses to keep close tabs on him even though in independent living. Wonderful! I highly recommend Monte Vista Village to anyone looking for a special place for a loved one where you can be confident in the positive environment and excellent care they are receiving.

Things are going pretty good. They love the food and they are starting to get more active and get adjusted to the facility. There was a theft in the room, unfortunately, but the administrative staff responded appropriately.

November 13, 2021Anonymous, thank you for your kind review; we are happy to pass along your comments to the team here at Monte Vista Village!
Tracy Walter was very helpful, answered all my questions and was attentive to my Dad. She engaged him and made sure he was comfortable with all the decisions. ad moved in without a hitch and loves it. He is very impressed with the food and enjoys playing a game or two of poker. All of the staff are friendly and engaging. The grounds are very well kept and every thing is clean. I looked at several places in the area and thought Monte Vista was by far the best. They offer many activities and encourage residents to participate.

I spent two months at Monte Vista Village visiting a friend and had no idea what to expect. What I found was a pleasant surprise. The grounds were lovely and well cared for, the residents were friendly and interesting, and the food was great. The staff was attentive and always willing to do whatever they could to provide high quality service. Special activities were frequent and fun and included many areas of interest. When it is time to consider a Senior Living community, that would be my first choice. A happy place.

November 13, 2021Hi Anonymous, thank you so much for your positive comments about Monte Vista Village!
I have had an excellent experience. I would go there myself. I haven't seen anything I would like to see improved or done better, at least so far. I felt they had the friendliest staff of all the places I looked at, and they connected to my father a little more. It seemed unpretentious, and really seemed to fit his personality.

November 12, 2021Loved One, we're glad to hear you enjoyed your visit.
We had our loved one here briefly and our experience was not a good one. We had numerous issues with the medication management service, and ended up moving our loved one to a different facility after a short time.

October 30, 2021Hi M C, thank you for taking the time to let us know about your recent experience. We are disappointed to hear that you are not satisfied with your visit.
Mom-in-law has been at MVV just over a month, but staff all know her name already. Friendly, clean, well-laid out. Lots of activities to choose from. She is "content" as she tells her friends.

November 13, 2021Jean, thanks for your praise and kind comments about our team.
My father moved into Monte Vista Village a few months ago and he is very happy there. He has taken advantage of all the center has to offer and is very pleased with the property. It is well maintained, the people are very friendly and the staff is very helpful. We visited several facilities in San Diego before Choosing Monte Vista Village and we were pleasently surprised at what Monte Vista had to offer. We especially like the park like surroundings. Tracey, the Marketing Director was very helpful and accomodating as my father made his tranisition from out of state, into Monte Vista Village. We highly recommend Monte Vista Village for Senior living.

November 13, 2021Hi Anonymous, thank you so much for your positive comments about Monte Vista Village!
I had billing problems every month. Even the corporate couldn't do simple addition. For meals management waited to the residents left and then secured the dining area which is in the same place as the residents lounge. One day they asked me to turn down the TV because they were having a meeting which was not in the conference room but instead in the residents lounge. The food was okay. At the time that I was there they had chicken and salmon choices which I liked. While it's really pretty on the outside they had things like cracks in the sidewalks. They started taking care of it but then they stopped. I found the billing person was exceptionally rude. She'd make me stand out in front to discuss my billing problems where people would come and listen instead of letting me into the office.

October 30, 2021Former Resident, we regret to hear that you had a negative experience with us, but would appreciate the chance to turn your experience around.
Nice facility. Friendly staff - knew clients names. The staff and clients were all happy and "milling" about. Variety of activities and outings. Didn't have a "Clinical" smell. Enjoyed all aspects of this facility.
