Lovely Accommodations!
The food is exceptional and the home is very clean with no odor. Most staff, especially the owners, are friendly and communicate well with the family. There is nothing this well managed in this price range in the valley. One area for improvement would be social activities outside of mealtime. I would recommend this facility to family and friends.

Tour experience
We had a good tour experience with A Place in the Sun. The only reason we did not go with this residential care home was because they do not have a doctor who comes in to see the residents. If you live far away like we did, this would not be ideal because you would have to go and take your loved ones to all of their doctors appointments.

Our experience with A Place in the Sun
We chose A Place in the Sun because of the value for the money. The room sizes here are on the smaller. They were really good with communication, my grandma was allowed to see him as well. The facility did not provide much in general when it came to activities, it was mostly just a lot of walks outside. Everyone here is very friendly and I would recommend them to others looking for this type of care.

Very nice place. Residents looked happy and well cared for. [name removed] answered all our questions. This type of location is not quite what dad needs yet. He is much more independent, but will keep this in mind when the situation changes.

The gentleman who ran the place pleasant enough. There was an odor and the areas were very poorly lit. The kitchen and bathrooms were clean. The bedroom he showed us was ok. The backyard was overgrown and not maintained. The house in general a little old and not kept up with fresh paint. Needed new furniture.

Passion Caregivers
I liked the caring atmosphere and intelligence and passion of the caregivers. Try to include them as family. My husband has been there a year and a half and I'm very glad I chose the place. They have birthday celebrations for birthdays and Thanksgiving and last year invited the families. At Christmas had a baby in October brought they baby in and let the patience place with the baby and hold the baby. They include them in as family.

I believe I made a good decision, the management is very compassionate and cooperative.
I believe I made a good decision, the management is very compassionate and cooperative. They have a really nice backyard, with flowers and rosebushes. They have a table out there, but he can't go out alone, I wish he could spend more time outdoors. I'm very happy that I did choose A Place in the Sun. It is close to home for me, and I have been really pleased with them.

about A Place in the Sun

A Place in the Sun offers Private and Semi-Private. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored A Place in the Sun 7.5 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
