The apartments are comfortable with thermostats in each unit so that you do not have to rely on someone else to be comfortable. Wi Fi is available & free. Basic cable TV is free also. Nutritious meals are served with generous time periods in the dining room, & room service is available (for a small charge, or free for those who are ill).

I have lived at Sandra Vista for almost four years now. It has been everything I had hoped for. Our patient and watchful staff has kept us safe during the pandemic. There are creative and social activities every day. We are blessed.

Moving to Sandia Vista has turned my life around. I was in a very dark and down place until I moved here. What turned it around was the many activities available and the ability to get out for shopping and sightseeing. I felt trapped at my previous residential facility. On top of it, I am saving money.

When we moved to Sandia Vista we completely changed our lifestyle of living. We spent 25 years on the road in RV living and then we moved to a living facility that we were very unhappy with. It has been a complete joy living here.

I visit my dear friend of 3 years every week. We have lunch in the dining room and I actually also take an art class with her each week at Sandia Vista. From the first time I visited I was impressed with the ambiance. I am impressed with the personal services my friend receives.

My dad moved in about 4 months ago. This place is so nice. Everyone is truly caring. The food is great. I feel like it is totally safe and beautiful. My dad seems to like it so far. There are lots of activities to enrich one’s life, hoping one day my dad will take part in that aspect of sandia Vista

I like the community and the ability to interact with people. I enjoy the activities and group programs and socials. I have lived here 5 years and I feel safe and secure. The staff takes the time to get to know us and they remember our likes and dislikes. I get to participate as a volunteer for a number of programs, like Bingo.

I have lived here for 8 months and my expeirence has been enjoyable. Not just the staff who work here, the residents are as friendly as a neighbor should or can be as you would expect in a " friendly neighborhood". They make the best cream puffs that I've ever had. I try to stay away from them because I don't want to get fat. I don't like fish, but there is always other choices. You can always find something to eat because there is an always available list of food. I would have to say that the green Chile cheese burger is the best.

As an almost 4 year resident I continue to find living at Sandia Vista a joy. The dining room is filled with conversation, laughs and lots of smiles. Our staff cares about us and is always there to share in our joys and sorrows. There is a wide variety of activities to choose from daily including volunteer opportunities. My apartment is comfortable and the community is pet friendly including birds, rabbits, cats and dogs. These are just a few of the reasons that make Sandia Vista home to me.

I am a Vietnam veteran going on 78 yrs.old no longer able to maintain my home. My family thought it would be best if I moved into a senior community. My son in law and I visited Sandia Vista and I felt very comfortable, I liked the apt. And the tour guide was exceptional for the explanation of what they have to offer. I've meet a few people here and they have been very nice. I am still getting settled in and selling my home. Eventually I plan to be more involved with the community once I get my affairs in order.

Sandia Vista is very comfortable, and clean. The staff is attentive of our needs. Polite and respectful. I have lived here about a year and have made lots of friends. It was hard to move from my house in the east mountains. I was isolated there and now I am surrounded by people my own age and you still have your privacy of being in your own home. It is a nice community and have been very happy with the decision I made to move here.

We just moved our mom into Sandia Vista and everything about this stressful change was made easier because of its absolutely amazing staff. From the very first phone call, [name removed]and her colleagues showed us tremendous care and respect. We visited places that cost twice as much and did not feel even half as much warmth and compassion for our mom and for us. For starters, we they wanted to help us figure out the right solution for our mom, as opposed to pushing a sales pitch where they would come out on top. They truly take care to be sure they are a match. When it came to move-in time, nothing was too much trouble. They went the extra mile to ensure our mom had a smooth move-in, and that she felt included and welcomed. Her apartment is beautiful and the campus is peaceful and lovely, with delicious food served in a happy atmosphere. Mom's first breakfast she reported, "the bacon here is really good." High praise from a tough critic. We are so grateful to Sandia Vista.

Sandia Vista is marvelous. It's the place you would want to be. I can't imagine any improvements or anything being better. It feels like home. All of the staff know you. They even get to where they know what kind of food you want, or whether you want it sent up to your room. They're just very accommodating. I like my apartment too. It definitely meets my needs. And I was able to bring my dog with me.
