Solvang is a special place

My mother-in-law has been a resident of Solvang for 1 1/2 years and is very happy there. As a regular visitor there myself, I can testify to the friendliness of the staff and other residents. She has made lots of friends and especially enjoys the many off-site outings that are offered, including trips to local wineries. The quality of the food and flexibility of dining times are a real standout compared to other retirement homes we had visited before choosing Solvang. My husband and I enjoy eating there regularly a…

I visited this facility

Solvang seems to be the most reasonably priced and very attractive. All the surfaces are new. It has been remodeled a year and a half or so ago, painted, recarpeted, and new lighting fixture put in. The salesperson was very accommodating, very genuine to my mom, and took time with us. The community itself is very close to where my fiancee and I live.

Really Nice

My good friend lived here for 5 years, sadly he passed a few months ago. I used to visit with him a couple of times per month, my positive experience prompted me to write this review. A very nice community, clean, never any fowl smells. His apartment was so warm an cozy with lot's of windows and a nice covered balcony to sit and visit on. I enjoyed several meals in the restaurant, what a nice menu to choose from. The staff was always welcoming and friendly.

I am/was a resident of this facility

Solvang Retirement Living was lousy. When I wanted to move out, I had to get 30 days notice, and I was there for 15 to 30 days. Even before I moved out, they were in there painting and fixing my room up. They lost some furniture that they took out of the room that was mine that I had not picked up yet. It's family-owned, and they bring in their families to run the place. It's a place to stay away from, is all I can say.

I really liked the people at Solvang Retirement Living. The facilities were not very updated, but they had very kind workers and residents. My husband and I have done some programs there and love the atmosphere. There’s nothing wrong with the maintenance. It’s just a little older and out of date, but it’s kept up really well.

I really like the staff at Solvang Retirement Living. The staff is really good. The dining room is restaurant-style. It doesn’t have assigned meal times, so you can eat when you want. The apartments are fantastic, but as a whole, the facility’s maintenance is horrible. The facility itself is not maintained very well by the owner. They have a lot of activities but because of the age difference, I really don’t participate in them, though I did enjoy bean bag baseball. The food is good, too.
