Atria La Jolla review

A 10% possible rent increase each year is a reason this is not a place to stay for an elongated period of time.

Liked it enough to move there.

On the way to Atria for a respite stay to try it out, Mum wanted to return home to MA. When she was done with the respite stay, she did not want to leave. She felt very welcomed by the staff and residents. She is looking forward to moving in at the end of the month.

Feeling welcomed

I visited Atria four times before the perfect apartment came open. Every time I came, I met new people and I liked them all. The community that you find in a retirement situation is very important. No one wants to stay in the room all the time so it’s good to find intelligent interesting people who really care for one another.

Moving to Atria

We decided to move from our large property because we couldn’t keep up with taking care of it. We toured several senior living communities and chose Atria. Everyone is so friendly and we felt comfortable here. There is a variety of activities to enjoy and getting to know people at dinner is very interesting. The staff is friendly and helpful. We have a cute apartment overlooking the park where we take our dog for walks. No more cooking or doing major chores . Atria has been a good choice for us.

Wonderful place to live

I have lived at this community for some months, everyone is very friendly. Food is very good and they will accommodate to you if you want something different. Staff is always willing to help you in a very welcoming way. Apartments are nice clean and tidy as well as the entire facility. The activities are fun and interesting and you can give suggestions and the managers take suggestions well. The park being close by is a great thing, I walk there every day! I highly recommend this retirement community, it really feels like home.

They promised me that if my mom got worse that they could still care for her

They promised me that if my mother got worse that they could provide her with the proper care. Now that she needs more they tell me I have to find someone. I'm probably going to be moving her out soon to a place that is better suited for her.

I love Atria of La Jolla

I have been a resident of Atria La Jolla for almost 3 years. The people that work here including the leaders are fantastic. The staff bends over backwards to provide the best service possible. There are some residents here that are so hard to please and no matter what they staff does they are never happy. The new kitchen staff is great we are so happy about the new menu items. The community looks good always clean never any odors. I highly recommend Atria La Jolla.

Lovely Facilities and Staff

My 89 year old uncle moved to Atria last summer and we love everything about this senior community. He was looking for a smaller community when we decided to move. Atria is the perfect spot. Very friendly residents, caring staff, and beautiful facilities. He especially loves the pool and access to the park. We highly recommend Atria to anyone in need of independent senior living.

Review for Atria La Jolla

I would not recommend it to anyone. I moved out of that place as soon as I was able. A large percent of the people who live at atria should be in assisted living and not in a senior living facility. The place is not clean, elevators often not functioning and 'chefs' never last very long. The food is TERRIBLE. The staff talks to you like a child and will not take any of your issues seriously until a family member brings it to their attention.

A terrific place

I have been impressed with Atria La Jolla up and down. The staff are so kind and caring and the facility and activities are top notch. Would recommend for anyone looking for independent living with a bit more support than most places.

My Experience

I was previously a resident at Atria La Jolla, it's the best priced facility in the area. It is an older building and something is always broken. The elevator was out of service for over a year. The staff is friendly, but turnover is high for the waitstaff and housekeeping. With the new chef, hopefully the food has improved. There are lots of celebrations and activities.

Happy to be in Atria.

When it comes to the meals and dining service the hours for lunch are to short and too early.. For the activities I have not been able to participate in any events so far. I do like my apartment, but I am unhappy that they are going to increase my rent in January.

Great facility

Someone recommended Atria La Jolla to me while I was seeking for a facility for my mother. I received tremendous assistance and a wealth of useful information. We only looked at two locations after hearing what I was looking for, here and at [removed], and while we finally chose the second due of the location, we continue to suggest Atria La Jolla because of the good vibe we experienced during our initial visit.
