I love Avista

There are so many reasons why I take pride in calling it home. Being part of the choir here has been a joy, and I've made so many friends that I never feel alone. The staff is wonderful. I can truly say that I love it here & would highly recommend Avista looking.

The staff at this property where very professional during our tour and made sure to answer questions we had for them in detail. I like that I did not feel pressured or pushed into a deal. The property was well maintained and they had an open floor plan that was easy to navigate through for all of the residents. It was just not the right location in the end decision for my loved one.

The apartments are big and each one has a private patio or balcony. This is nice since we enjoy great weather so much of the year. It is also a nice option for people on ALTCS - clean and comfortable with great care. The staff is professional and kind. This is a gem in the East Valley.

Nice apartment but not secure for someone who needs assistance. Staff was friendly but made us wait and did not have accurate info.
