Solstice Senior Living at Santa Rosa

We are very happy with Solstice. Staff and residents seem to get along and have lots of activities. Food is good. Absolutely! We spent four months looking in the Santa Rosa area and this was by far the best.

I would definitely recommend this to a friend or even a stranger I have recommended them to people who come into my tasting room.The rooms have been remodeled and the floor and carpets are renewed every time someone moves out. The staff and the grounds are very nice. It is one of the more reasonably priced facilities at its level In California or maybe even Oregon and Arizona also.

The food is bad and their system for dining and meal ordering is very ridged and complex for elderly people to learn. Most offerings in the building are geared to early risers. New residents are supposed to be assigned a buddy for an orientation but that did not happen in our case. Overall it is a friendly building with beautiful views. We chose it based on it being closer to family than other options.

Overall experience has been very accommodating. When it comes to the cleanliness - deferred maintenance detracts. All of the staff members are friendly. I'm independent but many with walkers and some scooters. Counted 13 helper's names on mother's day card from [name removed] home care. The meals set time sometimes takes an hour to get the entrée. When it comes to the activities there is no bus driver, only one lunch trip. Good selection of games for shut-ins. It is a good value compared to other month to month in the area. I believe I made a good choice moving here.

My 101 year old mother decided that she no longer wanted to stay in her home alone. She moved and has found new friends and staff that keep her engaged in social and physical activities. We checked out almost every facility around Santa Rose and this one exceeded our needs and expations.

It has been a wonderful help to me and has taken a big load off of my shoulders. We procrastinated for a long time before making the decision, and I wish we had not done that. It has been such a good thing for our family. They made the transition from home to independent living very easy. The sense of community among the residents is wonderful. The staff has been amazing, especially Catherine. They're taking very good care of our family and have been wonderful to us. It's an amazing value for the cost, and we've been very happy with them.

I love it here. The staff have been friendly, helpful, and my loved one has been doing fabulous here. My loved one was able to fit right in with the community. My loved one is enjoying the food. The portion sizes are good and are tailored towards the senior appetites. The services can be slow in the dining room; however, this might encourage a little more socialization with the residents. Movies, walking path in the hallways, and more are available activities for the residents to choose from.

Our loved ones apartment is so cute, it is perfect for her and her kittens. We wish we would of found Solstice much sooner so our loved one could really experience it all in better health since right now she is back and forth from the hospital. The meals are good but the dining service at times can be slow. They do have a ton of activities which is amazing. Overall she is happy there and really liked it.

There seems to be a little bit of staff turnover. The art room, doesn't have staff member in it to run the course. The marketing director to General Manager, [name removed], is personable and takes an interest into each resident. [name removed] provided an excellent first tour, and remember the special items my loved one wanted to be in their room. Overall, the staff is personable. There is a shuttle and town cars available for the residents to use. There is a nice nature path around the grounds of the community. The community is beautiful inside and out. There is a wide variety of food for the residents to choose from. My loved one enjoys the meals. The meals I have been lucky to have has been wonderful! There are activities available for the residents such as poker nights, movies, and more for the residents to choose from. The fees are comparable for the industry.

Nobody available to ask for info/tour. Nobody in Sales office or front desk??? 2/3/18. Smelled like smoke/older buiding/furnishings.

My mother has recently made the move into this community and I have no complaints of how things are going for her. She is loving all of the fun activities and has made lots of friends with the other residents. The staff have been lovely to work with and I am comfortable with the care she is being provided with. The only improvement they need is the breakfast. She is not a fan of the eggs and would like a bigger variety to choose from.

Gorgeous grounds and a modern building. It appears the residents are on the older side. Very nice residents and very qualified staff. I really like their meal options and the activitiy facilities.

We've visited several times and have signed a lease for a fabulous 2 bedroom apartment, but haven't moved in yet. So our review is mostly prospective heavily tempered by our excitement in getting ready to make the move. Our excitement at getting ready to move is at fever pitch and we're still getting ready to move from our coast side home and putting down our roots at Vineyard Commons. We're severely challenged by a houseful of stuff that needs to be adopted by our children, and decisions regarding the disposition of our accumulated 'stuff' of the last 46 years of marriage. As daunting as that may seem, we're looking forward to winnowing our accumulations and transferring our base of operations to the apartment.

Very nice, a bit too far for us from San Rafael, units smaller than most and with tiny kitchenettes.....

This is a great place for my dad. the staff is excellent and very caring. The community is very clean and taken care of. The activities that are offered are a great help to my dad. I would highly recommend this for the care of others.

My father is not in assisted living, he's in independent living so he does not receive any care services. My father does not participate in any activities but they offer tons of activities. What I like the most is that in most places they have an odor and smell funny. This facility has a welcoming feel to it and it feels like you're in a hotel.

All I have to say about the Vineyard Commons facility is that it is all very, very good. My loved one, myself, and my entire family really enjoy the place and we are all happy with it and with the decision to put our loved one there.

This place seems okay. Most of the workers are nice and seem to really love the residents here. The grounds and the inside of the building are pretty clean. Pretty reasonably priced. There were a few bumps in the road in the beginning, but it seems okay now

Are we happy with them?... Yes, and no. Less than a week after we moved in there, they went into a quarantine for two weeks. That was hard, because the move was made based on socialization, and activities. When they went into quarantine, it was full on, stay in your rooms, food brought to the rooms, and that wasn't very good. But I will say they jumped on it to handle that flu outbreak. The facility is nice, with sunny apartments. They have quite a few activities. Whenever you tell them anything they are very receptive, and I think they are doing a good job, overall. I would give them a four.
