Amazingly Perfect for our needs

The staff took our needs to heart. Though my loved one needs memory care but didn't want to be there "jailed" she has appreciated that the staff realize her needs are not so strong & she & a few other high-functioning individuals get to enjoy many of the activities made available to the residential side of the facility. Everyone is a family, knows & calls each other by nameb helps each other out. Really great place!... Read more

Peace of Mind

The Gardens of Scottsdale has proven to be a great choice to place our loved one. The memory care unit has an excellent staff to care the needs and even has gone beyond our expectations. Not fully knowing what to expect was a bit nerve racking at the beginning. The staff are all fully capable of making our loved one feel safe and cared for. The facility is well maintained and clean. I am very satisfied with our choice.

Beautiful, classic assisted living and memory care

I've toured this community several times and have had the pleasure of getting to know the staff quite well as I work with the senior/elder community. It is always clean, calm and inviting when I am there. The staff are engaged with residents that seem happy, too. The memory care director, [name removed], has been with the community for several years which says a lot - as longevity and stability is important in this business when working with aging adults. He seems to really care for his residents and their well-being/wellness. [name removed], the sales director, is awesome and very passionate about what she does. The community is in a classic location with great views and the price point is really great for what you get. The Gardens would definitely receive my blessing if a loved-one was considering moving here.

Tour experience at Gardens of Scottsdale

We toured with Gardens of Scottsdale and they were very high up on our list, we liked the facility a lot. The only downfall was that it was not a memory care specific facility. We felt better with out loved one being in a memory care only facility.

Thank you for considering Gardens of Scottsdale as a potential home for your loved one. In our Bridge to Rediscovery Alzheimer’s and dementia care program we provide individualized attention for each resident nestled in a small, secure and intimate memory care neighborhood. This provides all the advantages of a focused memory care setting, with the added benefits of amenities offered in a larger community. Please let us know if you have any follow-up questions about our memory care services, and we wish you the best in your search for a perfect fit for your loved one.

Smart Owner - Management Needed

The cleanliness, and friendliness is pretty good. They have a lot of activities. It's a nice facility. They need to improve on management. They have really good caregivers but there is issues with the management. The house cleaning staff is good.

I would definitely recommend

We chose The Gardens of Scottsdale because they were receptive to us and our needs. The meals here are chef prepared and she really enjoys them. My mom is in a private room but they offer shared rooms as well. I would recommend to others who are looking, we have definitely had a good experience.

My review of The Gardens of Scottsdale (Five Star Senior Living)

Our family did a virtual tour first and our experience was okay, it was pretty good. We were able to eventually go do an in person tour which was really nice and it came down to this community and another, and our loved one just felt the other place was a slightly better fit.

I toured this community

When we toured this community for my mom it was nice and clean. The person doing the tour was helpful and answered all my questions. It was just really to far away from me. So we chose something closer.

Perfect Place for Mom

Mom chose this place after walking in and seeing a friend from church and it got better from there. They showed us the available room and we loved it ,it was sunny and overlooks the courtyard. And it is right by the elevator since she has 2 dogs which was another plus but it was easy to take them outside. The Food is really good and the staff is helpful and friendly. They have gone to the casino and they play bingo. They take her and a friend to church on Sundays and even let them stay for coffee and pick them up after they are done. I would recommend this to anybody.

The Gardens of Scottsdale is perfect for my mother

My 93 year old mother entered assisted living at the Gardens of Scottsdale last month. She adamantly did not want to leave her home of 42 years, but her caregiver could no longer give her the care that she now needed. However, after just two days at the Gardens, she loved it there. She realized that this is the place that she needed to be. The caregivers and staff are very attentive and loving. They really do take it upon themselves to make sure she is safe and happy. She likes the food, and has met some new friends there. It is not an overwhelming facility so is just the right size for my mother. They also have skilled nursing and a memory unit, which is an important aspect to me. I am now traveling and it is a comfort to me knowing that she is safe and in good hands.
