Critical

Friendly staff. Way over priced

My mother moved in a couple of years ago. The building was new and prices were competitive. The staff have been friendly and helpful. The food and options for activities have been very good. It's a big change and high stress for a parent to move and start over. When Mom moved in, they said average price increases would match inflation at about 3-5%. Sunrise Senior Living took over management in 2025. They have reduced services and increased prices by about 45%. This has forced us to move. It's been a painful expe…

Our family's experience

The administration at Varenita and many of the caregivers as well as those at the front desk greet me by name. I will just say you get what you pay for.

Review for Varenita Simi Valley

The facility is beautiful and very clean and comfortable. The staff is very good. It takes a little while for the different workers to get to know what each resident needs. My mom has been there for a year and she likes it. The cost is expensive but for now it is worth it as long as she is healthy enough to enjoy the amenities. If she gets to a condition that needs more individual health care and she can't participate in the activities they offer, we will have to move her.

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

My aunt and uncle like the Varenita of Simi Valley very much. The food is top-notch gourmet. The staff members are very observant and very caring. We have been impressed with their attentiveness to the residents. For instance, my aunt had ordered shrimp served on a bed of fettuccine. She has Parkinson's so she had trouble cutting the shrimp to bite-sized pieces. Someone noticed it and said, 'Would you like some help with that, ma'am?' She said, 'Sure.' So little things like that make a…
