GoodLife Senior Living Los Lunas
5.0

A very home type welcoming atmosphere . From my observation very skilled caring staff, the handling of residents is gentle and careful. Yes, housekeeping is available. The extra curricular activities are great. They bring in families and residents seem to be comfortable and enjoy being there.

Coronado Villa Retirement Resort in Albuquerque, NM

I'm currently a resident at Coronado Villa Retirement Resort and I am thrilled to be living here. I certainly made the right choice to move here. The staff and the residents are all VERY friendly and call me by my name. My apartment is comfortable and is the right size. The cleanliness is super. They have more activities than I have time for! This is a great place to live and the ONLY facility in Albuquerque in which I would live. If Coronado Villa had not been here, I would still be living in Tucson.
