My father has been living here for 2 years. The place is beautiful and spotless. The food is very good and the care he receives is excellent. We miss not being able to share an occasional meal with him as we did pre-covid. Hopefully we'll be able to again soon. Everyone is so friendly and we are so pleased to have him there. Moving from a lifetime of independence to an independent living facility with some assistance is a major transition. Arroyo Gardens team has been very engaging to help my dad adjust and feel comfortable there.

My mother has flourished in her 6 months at Arroyo Gardens - even after losing my father shortly after their move. The staff is amazing and the friendships she has developed give her such support and encouragement. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Absolutely beautiful brand new facility. It is kept up so nicely and all the employees are so friendly. Everyone makes sure you feel at home and are taken care. If you are looking for yourself or a loved one you must come in for a tour and complimentary lunch!
