About Marbella Santa Fe

Upgrade your lifestyle and retirement when you choose to build your home at Marbella Santa Fe.

Marbella Santa Fe is also close to the historic Santa Fe Plaza and an array of colorful art galleries, museums, and popular restaurants. As a resident here, you can enjoy a variety of personalized services, the pueblo-style architecture, and unforgettable mountain views. Best of all, you can find the precise care you need, if it's needed. Whether it’s assistance managing medications, eating during meals, or grooming before bed, a smiling face and helping hand are close by. Rest assured, the staff is available 24-hours a day, seven days a week to be alerted to an emergency. An emergency alert system is also in use to provide additional security and peace of mind. To make residents’ days feel effortless, the staff assists with transportation to appointments, cooking, and managing the housekeeping and home maintenance services. Some additional perks to look forward to include the concierge service, beauty barber/shop, postal services, bank, snack shop, and general store. Community Services and Amenities How do you prefer to begin each day? Luckily, you have choices. Take a walk through the scenic courtyard and garden, or read the newspaper in the library or screened lanai. If you enjoy staying active, be sure to use the fitness center or host loved ones using the private community rental space. As an added perk, your guests can stay overnight using the guest suite, if needed. Daily community activities are also planned and include sing-alongs, movie nights, brain fitness classes, and more. If you find yourself running short on soap, hearing aid batteries, or other personal hygiene items, be sure to let the team know. The staff will be happy to save you a trip to the store, thanks to the Personal Solutions program. Just submit your item requests like toothpaste or body wash, and they’ll be delivered to your door at no additional cost.

We would not recommend people to visit your place at the moment, due to the fact that you refurbish your place at the present time. It will look much better in a few weeks when the whole place will be lighter with bright colors, new flooring and furniture. We enjoyed our tour as well as the courtyard. The whole atmosphere was lively and friendly; residents seem to be happy and actively involved at the time we visited. Negative: Elevator not ventilated. Questions: - Can residents remain in assisted living till t

I Made the right decision to move here.

I moved into Brookdale Independent Living in [date removed]. I chose Brookdale after touring several facilities in New Mexico, Colorado, Oklahoma, and Nevada. I saw the somewhat outdated building, and apartments without a lot of amenities, and Brookdale was not as up to date as some of the other places. These items were important to me, but the decision was easy, because the staff was so open and welcoming. The residents were friendly and welcoming. The vas majority of them were happy. I had to have a total hip r

Brookdale Santa Fe Review

I would tell others to: Eat the food ahead of time before moving in Ask for better maintenance and cleaning It's a hard job what the caretakers do and they are underpaid With that said Some were more responsive Some just didn't care There was human hair in the stairwell for over 2 weeks The list is long
