I found guest parking a big problem. I thought that it was a Gated Community. The lunch was delicious, and it is truly a beautiful place. I have just started my search.

Jenna did a great job of giving us an overview

When we were looking for a facility for my parents in the East County, we found La Vida Real. From meeting with Jenna and Bonnie they were very knowledgeable about the options for them. It was comforting to know that mom and dad could stay here together for the rest of their lives and not have to move apartments if one needs more care. All the care would be done in the same apartment. Cristi, the Assited Living Director, assessed them and let us know exactly what their care would be. I was also very impressed by the length of employment of the staff and how many have been there since the beginning. So happy we made this choice.

Bonny was extremely knowledgeable and took extra time with us. We were waiting for our 23 year old son to meet us there after work. He ran I to some traffic making me anxious,Bonny was very understanding and put me at ease, our son was very glad we waited for him.

more cost than I have at Lantern Crest.

Ms. Hay did an outstanding job of presenting this beautiful and comprehension senior community to me and my friend. Also every staff member we met was so gracious and accommodating. We were treated to lunch and my goodness, I wish I could go there daily and pay to have their delicious food. We were both very impressed and as of this day La Vida Real is number one on my list for retirement communities when the time comes. Claudia Hayes

Excellent tour and lunch provided.

Excellent tour and lunch provided.

Met beyond expectations!

This visit was to show some of my daughters a place I am strongly considering as a retirement location.....

We were very impressed and will consider following up on getting further information from Jenna. However, we are still independent and don't intend to make a decision about moving in just yet.

Bonnie Hay was absolutely fantastic!

Mother-in-law lived there for 5 years about 10 years ago. Loved the place.

La Vida Real is a beautiful community. The staff and residents were happy, friendly and courteous. I had a fantastic visit and I’m hoping my father will feel the same way. I hope to be moving him in soon!!!!

It's everything we'd hope for in a retirement community. I like the accommodation made for couples with different needs. We're some time away (about a year, probably) from making a firm decision.

Current residents would like additional van drivers on staff.

Beautiful property! Definitely at the top tier of our searches. Jenna was awesome! Very knowledgeable and welcoming. Great tour! Lunch was delicious too!

Jenna was extremely professional and very knowledgeable of all aspects of your facility. She was also very knowledgeable of the other facilities I have visited recently.

La Vida Real is perhaps the best possible Senior Community in San Diego, from an outstanding facility to the most professional and caring staff. I feel no other San Diego Senior Community offers more to its residents than La Vida Real.

Jenna did an amazing job informing us about La Vida. She made my father in law feel so at ease and listened carefully to all his wants and desires for independent living. Jenna made him feel valued and respected! She was able to answer all our questions and gave us all the peace of mind that Bernard would be happy there. If Bernard's VA benefits covered the cost to live there, he probably would have moved in that very day! Jenna did more than just show La Vida, she showed him a HOME where he can belong and feel valued.

The reason for my visit was to enjoy the Oktoberfest and meet a resident. Hence most of the questions were not applicable

Bonnie made me feel so comfortable and welcome. I ended up not even going and looking at other places that were on my list!

Bonnie was welcoming, informative, caring, and so professional. She showcased the property and answered all our and then some. She was genuinely concerned about our future care and quality of life. We could certainly see ourselves moving here and spending the rest of our lives! We’ll see Bonnie again....Thank you Bonnie!

Jenna was friendly, professional and very knowledgeable of all aspects of senior needs and was very interested in my parents well being.

Jenna is the best!!!

Your facility would be at the top of my list to live. I am struggling as to whether I can afford it and may have to wait a year.

Bonnie was very friendly and made us feel comfortable on the tour. Everyone we met seemed friendly and made you feel at home. I Like the place very much and all the activities you have to offer.

Thank you for the delicious lunch--every thing is lovely!

My in-laws lived here; so we are very familiar with La Vida Real, and we appreciate all that it has to offer. We stopped for updated information for ourselves plus a friend who is beginning to consider retirement options.

Not at this time. We have just started on this. We were very impressed with you facility and Jenna Ballard.

This is a great place, and we plan on visiting again in the near future to meet with more residents.

Your residents all seemed content and happy.
