Our family had an in person tour and the lady who gave us the tour was very nice, sweet and professional. Even though it is an independent community they do have outside services you can hire if your loved one needs extra assistance. However just in the end we realized this would not be the best fit for our loved one but the community was very well maintained and clean.
The rooms were very spacious & the grounds attractive. The tour guide was fine, but didn't seem too professional ([Removed]). The pervasive smell made me cross this one off my list.

I did not like, the only think that I like is the full Kitchen. the bedroom is to smal and the Dining room is too far.

My mom thought the community looked older and it was less modern looking. She was not too thrilled about the place. It was not bad and the price was better. We did have to consider that they were too far. They showed us a clean community and were prepared for our visit. They even did good following up afterwards.

My tour of Villa Serena went well. The staff was all very nice and friendly. The community was a bit more expensive than what we were looking for. It was more in the city and my loved one wanted something more home-like. This place would be perfect for someone just not for my father in law.

I have no complaints about this community and have been very pleased with the quality of care that my mother has been receiving from the staff. They have been very comforting to her and helpful during the transition of her moving in which really helped my family and I have peace of mind. She has had no complaints about the food and is looking forward to participating in the many activities they have to offer.

This community is doing a great job keeping the place clean and well maintained. The staff are wonderful, the management is great. There are activities available but since I'm still moving in I haven't had a chance yet. I get 3 meals a day which is very tasty. The staff even brought me my meal while I was moving in. I get all the help I need and I have a would keep recommending this community.

My mom absolutely loves it at Villa Serena. There is a closeness with the people. The service is excellent. I really like the layout of this facility. The value is the best there is around. Mom loved the activities although she does not participate in them as much anymore. She loves the food there. The only trouble mom had was with the comcast getting set up at the beginning. It took a while but it finally got resolved. Overall we are very pleased here.

October 2, 2015it's great to hear your mom is enjoying her new home and the transition has been seamless. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make her experience even better!
The community is absolutely wonderful. They have staff and ambassadors who helped my 95 year old mother in law over her fear and confusion to being VERY happy here in about two weeks. She now goes to exercise 5 mornings a week and bingo twice a week, and has even played poker. She loves the meals and is now comfortable making choices from the 6 choices at all 21 meals a week. She has even on two of their day trips and is looking forward to more. And she has quickly made friends here. Oh yes, the few times she pressed the GPS button by mistake, someone was there checking on here in minute, even though one of those times she wasn't in her apartment. And she loves the grounds, with the foliage and koi/duck pond.

October 2, 2015Thank you for your praise and sharing your mother-in-laws experience living at Villa Serena. If there is anything we can do to make her experience even better, let us know!
Sprawling, nice grounds. Food was pretty good. The units are not bad and they let you customize the units. You get your own back entrance sliding glass door to the parking area. No internet.

February 25, 2015While Internet is not included in the monthly rent here at Villa Serena, this is the only additional expense required. We offer three chef-prepared meals daily, transportation, utilities (excluding Internet), maintenance, fitness classes, social activities & outings, and more! Situated in beautiful Northern California, our residents take advantage of our exterior walking path, communal gardens, dog park, and large patios. Let us know if you have further questions or would like to stop by for another visit to see these amenities!
Narrow hallways, seemed like too much walking for my parents. Small one-bedrooms, didn't seem as organized. Meal selected seemed more limited than Redwood Villa.
