I am a current resident at Vista Gardens

I’m a Vista Gardens resident and I have been living here for four years. I love this community. It’s so friendly and helpful. The amenities are housekeeping, laundry service and the Dining Room meals. They have activities daily like Bingo and exercise. Sometimes they can arrange for outings with their shuttle bus. Mostly importantly we have Med Techs to dose our medications daily. I feel very safe and secure here and I’m extremely grateful for Vista Gardens.

Beautiful and caring!

My sweet best friend recently needed memory care and we chose Vista Gardens. It was a hard and emotional decision to move her from her home but the staff at the community made it easier! We chose it because it has a resort feel when you walk in the front doors. It also has a big beautiful park, even with a putting green! My bestie was an avid golfer so we thought she’d enjoy it! Upon moving her in, the team was so supportive and friendly. They took pride in caring for her from her appearance to her lifestyle activi

We had such high expectations. I thought I'd found the prefect place where he would be taken care of, safe, secure....

My husband wasn't there very long. A couple of weeks after he moved in, he was hospitalized with an infection in his toe. He's diabetic and his feet needed to be watched closely. They didn't check them. I don't know what happened while he was there, I only know of the consequences of him being there. He spent 3 weeks at [name removed], from there went to [name removed]rehab for a couple of months, then to home care at a home in La Costa. He was there two weeks, had a massive coronary, and passed away. I blame the c

Not too small. Not too big.

They have shuttle service on Tuesdays and Thursdays to doctor appointments within a 12 mile radius. The staff is very attentive. Facility/maintenance requests are handled quickly. The housekeeping is good. High quality meals. They rotate frequently with a variety of entrees. I would recommend the facility to others.

Overall Great Experience

We had a great experience. They were in transition, under new ownership. Everyone was great. We picked this community, because It was the only one that was focused on memory care, and it seemed to be the best option. It was also recommended by friends. I would recommend to other families.
