Things have been much better than we anticipated at this facility. We had no idea what to expect. But so far, it's been a terrific experience. Mom is thriving here. She's extremely comfortable at this facility and loves it. She has from day 1, which shocked all of us. Her Dementia makes most things challenging, but the staff here is very skilled at handling those challenges. They're getting her to shower and to do other things that we couldn't get her to do when she was home with us. They check on her every hour and make sure that she has what she needs. The staff is very thoughtful in the things that they do here. I have nothing negative to say about this facility. They provide housekeeping and laundry services. They're organized. Their meals are very structured. They do a great job with medication management. They're very encouraging and have great activities. My mom is social and intermingling here, more than she ever has! They have a beautiful, large garden area that's secured for the residents to enjoy anytime that they'd like to. My mom also has a great view of it from her bedroom window. The head nurse often sends me pictures of mom and updates, which is really great. They keep family involved. I would recommend this facility to family and friends. I would warn them that the cost is high, but that it's so worth it to see the progress of a loved one!

Highs and lows

The care staff is great overall, better than where she was before. More responsive overall, although occasionally she has to call down to remind them of something she needs. The prices seem to go up frequently. It's a very expensive place.

Recommend to people who are still mobile and somewhat independent

It's a mixed bag of answers where they have done extremely well in some areas, but are lacking in others due to being shorthanded and high turnover of helpers. We are providing our own caregivers to come there during the day to make sure my mom receives her meals in a timely manner. To be fair, my mom has a bad attitude sometimes and can be a difficult patient. Personally, I feel the cost of care there is extremely high, considering we are bringing in caregivers to help. However, Bella was one of the nicer facilities we had looked at. Overall I would them a 3 1/2. Beautiful Facility, Friendly Staff, Staff Shorthanded in recent months

Rude management

General Manager does not know what she is doing is. Management is going downhill. Place is falling apart. Corporate Greed. Beautiful facility. Some staff truly do care. They need more hands on deck over there.

Rude Upper Management

The Manager [name removed] has no people skills. She is extremely rude defensive and unapologetic for her very unkind and inappropriate responses. Unfortunately, her poor attitude has a trickle-down effect and the other departments follow in the same manner. If you have a problem do not expect good customer service and if it has anything to do with finances or any explanation thereof do not expect a reasonable explanation.

My tour review

This community was amazing and top notch however, it was out of my loved ones budget. There were a lot of amenities and everything of another community that I was looking at but the only difference is that this building was very big. The residents were also different based on the budget so I did not feel like my loved one would feel at home.

My Tour Experience

I really liked Bella Villaggio. The facility had a pool, outdoor gardens, and the food quality was excellent. It also seemed like the medical staff was very alert and active, and had a good system in place to keep up communication with the responsible party for resident.

Positive experience so far

Our loved one has only been here for a couple weeks and so far everything is great. Bella Villaggio has a very nice living room, a big great dining room and a ton of activities. They have a nice big back yard for the residents to walk around. Our loved one came from a much smaller community so he is adjusting, but it really is nice and spacious facility. The location is very convenient for our family, and its very spacious for all the residents.

Fabulous facility

Kind, caring, compassionate and professional staff. This place was a gem for us, being that we live out of town. We can't say enough good things about this facilty - from the food, to the rooms, to the facility, to the staff.

Memory Care

We moved our client from what we thought was a 'high end' memory care residence, we moved her to Bella Villagio in Palm Desert when it first opened. Wow...what a difference and improvement in the care--givers, food, and facility. This is truly a high-end experience for our high energy memory care client. We call her the mayor of Bella Villagio. [name removed], the ED leader has put together a caring team staff who has continuing education relevant to their services. We feel like a part of the Bella Villagio family and are grateful to having found this residence for our client. Sincerely, [name removed] & [name removed]
