Kim was the lady that we talked to at Senior Star at Villa Ventura and toured us. She was lovely and she worked well with us. It's a nice facility. No doubt about it. It was beautiful. It's got beautiful grounds, especially. It's on the pricey side, but I think they're all expensive now. They had a variety of rooms and you would have to bring your furniture. The great thing about that was it had a patio door in the room and they allowed pets. My friend's a smoker so he needed someplace where he could just step out and not have to go down the hall, around the corner, and all that. So I would recommend that for smokers because there are not that many places out there that take smokers. Another great thing about it was there wasn't one dining room. Each floor had its own dining. So, you're not expecting the elderly to take an elevator down and walk down the halls. Their food was provided very close to the rooms in a small dining room setting. So, I was very impressed with that place. I really was. It was fantastic and a nice place.

I went to look at Senior Star at Villa Ventura. I loved the person that I dealt with during the tour. She was very professional, kind, and caring. The facility itself is gorgeous. I like the activities and the way they have things laid out for the people. I met the different staff members. Everybody was friendly, courteous, and very approachable.

The tour of Senior Star at Villa Ventura was great. It was an older facility, but the staff was great. We looked at one room that had been remodeled. It was great.

The tour of Senior Star at Villa Ventura was great. It was an older facility, but the staff was great. We looked at one room that had been remodeled. It was great. We also looked at another room that had not yet been remodeled, which I would rate lower than the remodeled one. The person who gave the tour was super. The staff spent a lot of time with us, walked us all around the facility, and showed us a lot of different room options. Our kids came, and they put up with our kids and entertained them. They were just great and super friendly. I saw their menu and the food, but we did not try it. We saw a list of their activities, but we didn't see an actual activity. Even though the building was older and not as well-kept, their staff was so exceptional. They realized that could use some updates, and they are working on them.

I toured Senior Star at Villa Ventura. Their prices were very reasonable. For less than what I would be paying for a studio at another facility, I could have afforded their a one-bedroom deluxe.

I toured Senior Star at Villa Ventura. Their prices were very reasonable. For less than what I would be paying for a studio at another facility, I could have afforded their a one-bedroom deluxe. It is a very nice unit with excellent closet space. It has very long storage, a coat closet in the living room, and a walk-in closet in the bedroom. The floor plans online show that it only has a kitchenette, but some of the units also have a stove, an oven, and a space for a microwave. I told them they should update their website because not all the units have that capability, but they have a number of them that either have a cooktop or a microwave. The living room and the bedroom were very nice sized. It's really good value for your money. However, it's a little bit far out, and I would be changing states, which would mean new driver's license and new license. It's quite far away from my current medical providers. I have a cardiologist and an internist that I really like and have been with for a long time, but having to change medical providers with all my health conditions wasn't my preference. So it has nothing to do with the unit, it was more the location. They provide two meals a day. They don't have a pool, but they will give you a membership to one close by, and they offer transportation if you want that. The laundry was not in the unit that I looked at, but it was nearby. They didn't have any garages or carports. It was all open parking, which is kind of an unfortunate thing. They have internet, they have weekly housekeeping and emergency pull cords, and their pet charge is a little bit less than other places. The woman who did the tour was completely engaging. She was very helpful and very friendly, while still being professional.

Overall, I wasn't as impressed with the rooms at Senior Star at Villa Ventura. The kitchen areas were very small. They got kitchenettes instead of full kitchens, but they were very accommodating. My mom would like a walk-in tub, and they said that they could certainly have that put in and that there...

Overall, I wasn't as impressed with the rooms at Senior Star at Villa Ventura. The kitchen areas were very small. They got kitchenettes instead of full kitchens, but they were very accommodating. My mom would like a walk-in tub, and they said that they could certainly have that put in and that there would be no problem at all. So, I was really happy to know that. One thing I liked about them was their interaction with their residents and the activities that they have planned for them. They seemed very engaged. I think of all the places that I visited, I was very impressed at how active their residents were around the facility. Even the director sat down with me and asked, "What does your dad like to do? What does your mom like to do? Let's see if we can figure out something that they would like to do." My dad likes to go outside and dabble around the garden and they said they would figure out a way where they can make a committee or something where he can be part of the groundskeeping or something for the facility. They were really on spot about engaging their residents in a way that no other facility that I have visited did. I was just really impressed with that. The lady who toured me around was very nice, very knowledgeable, and very proud of her facility. You could tell that she was very happy with the place. She stopped along our tour several times and spoke with the residents. I also got to sit down with the residents and talked to them a little bit about the place and what they liked about it. That was nice and she showed me a variety of different rooms to choose from. It was just an older facility, but it's well-maintained and it's in a wonderful setting. It backs up against the park there which gives it a nice setting. I liked it.

Senior Star at Villa Ventura was very nice. The people that welcomed me were professional and patient. When I asked a lot of questions, they gave me so much information.
