We found Solstice to be a wonderful experience for Mom. Sadly, her condition advanced to a point of needing further care, and she has since passed away. But we would highly recommend Solstice to anyone needing minimal assistance. Wonderful staff and friendly residents.... Read more

June 2, 2024Thanks so much for taking the time to share this positive, five-star review, Sheri! We're so sorry to hear of your mother's recent passing. We are so glad to hear she had a great experience with us at Solstice at Normandy Park. If you ever have any questions about our community or programs, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thanks so much. Have a great day!
I will be joining the neighborhood very soon and I just wanted to say [name removed] in sales has been very very helpful. We hit it off from day 1. I am so happy to have met him. He eased the frustration of finding the best place to live. I am very satisfied with all the amenities especially the Cafeteria. The spaghetti was the best I ever had and the carrot cake was oh, so so delicious (I never liked carrot cake) I was told to try a piece and next thing I knew my plate was empty so I asked for another so I could eat it in "SLOW MOTION" LOL. I am going to love it here and I thank you [name removed] for all of it. He showed me so much kindness I felt like Royalty. I assure you this is not an atta boy comment he went way ABOVE AND BEYOND to assist me due to my issues and I am so GREATFUL. The staff was very kind to me as well during the tour they all treated me like ROYALTY. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH [name removed] you are truly a blessing that I was waiting to cross my path. I am HOME!

They were really super helpful getting us set up and move in. We had some difficult medical situations to work through, and there was lots of back and forth. The director at the time was super helpful and great. The staff seems to be great with my dad. He's made a bunch of friends. It's a great facility.

June 23, 2022Thank you so much for the kind review, JC! We are pleased to hear that you have had great experiences at our community and with our staff, and that your father is enjoying our community as well. We truly appreciate you taking the time to leave us feedback. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Have a wonderful day!
The executive director was incredible and so helpful. Our family was in a complicated situation and they were very accommodating. Unfortunately our loved one was not able to move in, due to the level of care they ended up needing and they were very generous to let us back out of the contract.

March 1, 2021Thank you so much for the five-star review, Lynnette! We are pleased to hear that you enjoy living at Solstice Senior Living at Normandy Park.
We chose Solstice at the time because of the value for the money as well as the location. The apartments here are larger than some other places we looked into and she also has a nice view from her room. The food got a lower score because of the quality of the meals. The best part about this community so far for me is the convenience and for my mom, she has always enjoyed the staff. I would recommend.

March 1, 2021Thank you so much for the five-star review! We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed our tour and are excited to have you in the Solstice Senior Living at Normandy Park community.
We wanted to be very careful when choosing a place for my sister and ultimately she would make the decision when she came to town. We looked at so many Senior Living facilities in the area for her. They all offered something different and prices varied from place to place. She chose Solstice because it was a warm and friendly place and the people that lived there seemed to really like it. My sister has lived there for years now and calls it home. The apartments are nice and the staff is great! The activities are fun and engaging and there is always a little something for everyone. The food is really good too. [Name removed] is in the office and is supportive of the people that live there and her staff, but also takes time if I have questions. She seems to really care about the people that live there and her staff. They all greet me with a smile and friendly hello. I would highly recommend Solstice in Normandy Park.

I liked this community when I visited. This community does allow pets and seems to offer some nice activities. The one thing I did not like is it felt a little dark inside.

My husband loves it here and I hate it. The food is horrible it is not prepared well. The quality is poor there is no taste to it and it is overcooked. We live in the basement apartment and it is extremely small for what we are paying for. There isn't enough closet space the carpets are too thick which makes it hard to walk. The staff is friendly enough but doesn't go out of the way to help you. The housekeeping is horrible they don't dust or vacuum and when they do they don't move any sort of furniture. The only thing that I like is the walk in a tub it's very convenient for me. The location of the property is poor we are near the airport so it's very noisy. They don't deliver food to your room for free there is a charge of $5.00 and they serve it in take out containers and by the time I get it it's cold.

August 7, 2017Hello, my name is Katie, I work for Holiday, and I'd like to thank you very much for reaching out and sharing these comments with us. We are so happy to hear your husband enjoys it here, and that you find our staff to be friendly. I'm sorry to hear, however, your thoughts on our food and that you yourself are not enjoying it here. I'd like the opportunity to discuss the concerns you raise, and work on a plan that would make your stay with us more enjoyable and to your liking. We love having you here, and want to see you thrive! Please, give our Resident Relations team a call anytime at [removed], or email at [removed]. We really look forward to hearing from you soon -- thank you so much! --Katie
The staff are helpful and accommodating. The food is pretty decent. This community does have an older resident population. They offer plenty of activities, however I wish they offered more outings. I like the size of my apartment and this community is in a good location for me.
