My parents left in [date removed]. Things that they were told would happen did not. Laundry done and sheets washed--no. Beds changed--only put clean sheets on if stripped. Clean apartment weekly--every other week at best. Would not vacuum furniture or dust. Only bathrooms, kitchen and floors were done. Prices raised, services lowered. Dining room was inadequate. Closed periodically for various reasons, staffing, AC not working. Bagged food only provided during those times. Made them stand in line and not get food served. Only served people who weren't mobile. They liked their apartment but hated living there. Were told they would have free covered parking. Had to pay for it. It was bad.

My mom is very happy there! The dining room manager is awesome! She spends time with each resident and makes sure they have what they need for their meal. They have lots of activities that covers a variety of interests for the residents. If you need the maintenance man, he comes up right away to take care of whatever you needed of him. My mom loves her apartment and her life there.

I really enjoy living here. The atmosphere is always cheerful and friendly. The food is so important to me and recently I was taken out for dinner by my family and the ribs we have here are incredible. Put the ones I ordered at the restaurant to shame. The kitchen staff works very hard to provide great meal choices and the serving staff is friendly and helpful. I am so glad I moved in here.

Great place to live. Staff is amazing. I find the meals exceptional. It is so nice to have good choices for each meal and the food is really good. The kitchen staff and the wait staff are so helpful and I don't need to cook!! I really enjoy all the activities available every day and the library is so nice. I just can't say enough about my life here!

I moved here a month ago and have never been happier! The staff is wonderful! I was living in a place that gave me a peanut butter and jelly sandwich that it became a joke trying to find the peanut butter. Here at Solstice, I have 3 hearty meals a day! If I don't like what they are serving, there is an alternate menu to choose from! I can get a hamburger!! every day!!! Moving here has literally been life changing for me!

I am a resident at Solstice, and I love it here! Our dining staff is incredible! Their pot roast tastes just like when my mom made it, and that brings back so many wonderful memories. The staff here really cares about each one of us. I have made so many wonderful friends here. And the activity director always has fun things for us to do.

I have been to many different communities and have never see anything like this kitchen staff! Most Independent Living communities don't do 'specialized meals' in independent living. But Solstice does! I am a 100-year-old resident that is now gluten free. [name removed]& [name removed]go above and beyond to make sure I always have a wonderful meal!

Our mother left Solstice last December to live with my sister in Flagstaff. We thought Solstice was a great place... we as a family were very happy with them and their services. We thought all staff were caring and very attentive.

Since we offer 3 meals a day and housekeeping, we are a good option for those on fixed incomes. Staff is friendly and easy to talk with. Few problems. We also offer some medical help. Apartment sizes are very good. King-sized bed still leaves room in the bedroom. Some have walk-in closet. Full-sized kitchens. Bathrooms have many grab bars. They do also had 2 bedroom apartments available as welll. I am happy here.

January 29, 2024Thank you for your 5-star review of Solstice at Sun City West! We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us. Have a great day!
My father in law loved it there. He made friends and was very happy there. Which in turn made the family very happy. The apartment was definitely dated, appliances, kitchen cabinets and countertop as very old and inexpensive. But it was completely adequate! My father in law picked this based on price and amenities.

I was in assisted living due to health issues which had impressed. The Manager came in to meet me during the tour and demanded my POA be involved. Even though my POA was only incase I couldn’t make my own decision. But he demanded she be part of the conversation and told me to come back with her. I won’t go back at all. I was treated badly and rudely by him like I can’t make my own decisions. Who wants to live where the manager treats you like your stupid.

The facility has well-lit hallways, you are allowed to have pets here, the food is good and they also offer alternative selections if you do not want or like what is being served that day. They do offer one and two bedroom apartments. The 1st floor apartments have patios for those who have dogs. 2nd and 3rd floor apartments have a small balcony. All in all, I love this place!

The housekeeping is by a new company, the old staff was fired for theft. The food is a nice selection and is well prepared. My loved one enjoys all of the activities, especially the heated pool. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

I would tell others that this seems like a great place to live. All our loved one's needs are met, and it is reasonably priced, with friendly staff. There are three meals a day served, and a couple of choices to choose from. There is a full kitchen in the apartment. There are laundry facilities in the building for the residents to use. The community is in an older building that is very kept clean.
