Vista Shores review

This has not only been the best experience for my sister and I who were our mothers caregiver for years, but this is also an incredible experience for our mother. When we say the staff members there are top notch, they are top notch. They are the most pleasant and most giving of their time. The memory care unit is amazing, they have met every expectation. During the big storm our loved ones routine was not interrupted, they were able to keep the residents safe. We have spent so much more quality time with our loved one. We are truly grateful, and the staff members there are just something else.... Read more

About the facility SummerHouse Vista Shores

Ease into sweet Southern comfort at SummerHouse Vista Shores, where honorable service meets luxurious charm. Their remarkably elegant and thoughtfully designed building offers assisted living and memory care services, along with breathtaking views of the bayou, waterfront lounge areas, private and stylish suites, and a host of individualized services and homelike amenities. Perched on a beautifully landscaped property in New Orleans, the stunning community is just a short drive from the well-loved festivities of the Big Easy, including spirited nightlife, vibrant live music, and spicy cuisine.

Residents have the freedom to decide how to spend their time, such as dining in one of their two large dining areas, relaxing in the spa, or enjoying the sprawling view of the bayou in the sun-filled veranda. The community also enjoys taking residents on off-site excursions to explore the culture and local flavor of historic New Orleans.

Comfort and well-being are at the center of the community, and compassionate staff is available around the clock to help residents get the most out of their day. From assistance with daily tasks to specially designed memory care services, the level of care provided at SummerHouse Vista Shores is unmatched. Staff even assess new residents’ needs to create...

Homey, Cozy and Happy!

Vista Shores is exactly what we was looking for in a community for our mom. We were blown away at how happy and we’ll take care of all of the residents were and the wide variety of activities that are offered. We toured and noticed how clean and well kept everything is! My parents were members of the original country club that the building originally was to Lake Vista. We toured other communities and none of them had near the outdoor space compared to here with the benches along the bayou and the walking paths (not to mention all of the nature and wildlife like the cute ducks!) We ended up choosing Vista Shores and our mom will be moving in during July.

would not recommend based off our experience, lack of care

In all honesty, I am not sure that I would refer SummerHouse Vista Shores to other families. I do not think the care was very good. Luckily, my loved one who was here did not need that much care at the time. Overall it was not a good place for our loved one.

Dad loves it here

Vista Shores is a beautiful place. Rooms are cute apartments that my niece wished she had when she went to college. The atmosphere is joyful and homey. Staff are wonderful. They have a wide variety of daily activities to participate in. You can walk around outdoors to the bayou or sit on the porches or sunrooms around the facility. Food is good and plentiful. Facility is very clean.

Nice Tour

This is a nice community, and my tour of it went very well. Everyone was kind to my family, and myself. The community looked clean, everything we saw looked good. The staff we met was kind, and courtesy. Our questions were answered. The experience was a good one.

Better Care and Comfort

This community was not what we wanted. The menu was terrible and the variety was not healthy. The staff were very nice. The community is beautiful, but they staff informed me that they only clean once a week and not when something needs to be done. There were times that the staff did not speak to the residents very well.They do have activities for the residents who are able to participate.I would not recommend this community to other families for care.

Vista Shores

I got a very good impression with our visit. The residents appear happy. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The residence was bright and cheerful. From what I was told I feel that my mother will get excellent care there. They will cater to needs from the food they serve her to whatever daily assistance is needed. Very pleased.
