Paradise Village had very nice staff, and there were a lot of activities at the swimming pool. They had a separate art room, a library, a hairdresser, and a doctor in-house. They had everything. You don't ever have to leave the building. It has beautiful grounds, and the rooms were good. The dining room was big and nice, too. Everything was great. It's just very large, so there's a lot of walking.

I did a tour of Paradise Village. Their staff, Caroline, is very good. She has an excellent attitude, is very accommodating, and is very patient. She accompanied me on a tour inside of their facility. We toured the restaurant and amenities that they have, like where the patients stay and where they eat. It's very good, they welcome you with a smile; everybody did, including their staff and the front desk of the assisted living. The director and the receptionist were very good. It was excellent service, and they give me a big smile. They put their sign for welcoming me, even though I'm just touring the place. It's one of the places I would consider if I'll be placed in assisted living. They offered food, but I declined. Caroline offered me a cup of coffee and it was good. She just discussed activities with me. They have a library and reading facilities. Even though we didn't tour it because, it's on another floor, it's good that we learned that there is a library. If we decide to go to such facilities, it's nice to know that that they have those kinds of facilities, libraries, and places where you can stay in. They also have an outside place where you could get the sun. It's a very nice place.

We toured Paradise Village to see their assisted living but they showed us the entire complex too. It has the best quality, of all the ones that we saw in the area. The community was well thought out and has great customer service. The person who showed me the property was excellent. You feel safe in having your in-laws, or someone you care about there. They had several precautions against COVID like during meals, they cut back on interactions. They were limiting things whenever there was a fear of an outbreak. They immediately instituted precautions to keep the people safe and also limit visitors so that it doesn't create any problems. They have great protocols for COVID.

Last Tuesday, I went to see Paradise Village. The tour was very nice and very informative but I wasn't too crazy about the facility. It's a beautiful facility but it's too much like a hotel and not an apartment. I saw both assisted and independent living. The tour guide was okay, just new to her job. She was professional though. I didn't see a whole lot of the staff, as far as that goes, but everybody was very friendly. It's a beautiful facility with a putting green, indoor swimming pool, and a nice gym area. The facility is great.

I liked the fact that Paradise Village is very clean, I liked the fact that the people do not seem unhappy, that they're there and doing stuff. Everybody seemed to like their food, and there were sufficient activities so you don't get bored to death. So overall, it had a great living vibe, so it was a good trip. My cousin liked the outside gardens and stuff. He was a horticulturist, so he likes going outside and looking at plants, and they had garden areas which he really liked. So I think that was the deciding factor right there. I liked the community the best. Everybody was friendly, everybody knew what they were doing, and everybody seemed to be doing their jobs very well. The food was as good as almost any restaurant that I go to all the time. I had a Reuben sandwich with potato salad; both were excellent. I thought the facility was outstanding. Some of their facilities are closed right now because of COVID.

We visited all, but the memory of Paradise Village. It's a very nice location. The buildings are immaculate. The outdoor space is huge. It really feels like an outdoor space. They're in the middle of the old Seventh Day Adventist property there behind the Paradise Hospital, and it's a nice piece of land that they sit on. They have done very well. They have a very large community center with a full gymnasium, not just a hallway of a gymnasium. It's probably on top of my mom's list. An amazing thing is that it is the biggest and nicest facility, and it's the second least expensive of all the facilities we visited.

I toured Paradise Village, and it was really pretty. I would say the amenities were good. The only thing (and it was not even anything against them) was it was just a little bit further for me to travel to see my father-in-law. It had so many really nice features. They showed us a studio and a 1-bedroom. I would say they were spacious and both were really, really nice. They have a pool, a little golf course (which was nice), a pharmacy, a credit union, and a movie room. It was really great. The staff were very nice, pleasant. They looked like they were doing a really good job. I liked that it was gated.

Paradise Village was good. It was more like individual apartments, and they have a communal kitchen. The rooms were clean. They're really friendly and the complimentary lunch was fine. They have a library, a media center to watch movies, a gym with little treadmills, a courtyard, and patio area, so they have indoor and outdoor amenities. The staff was very cordial and courteous. The place was very well-done. It's a hotel that has been converted into assisted living.

My father-in-law has been in Paradise Village for four months now. My overall impression of it is not very good. The patio is good, but the furniture is old. The dining room is not very clean. The smell is not good. They need more assistance in cleaning the place. The nurses are good, but for their services, it is too expensive. Also, at the time I visited, I didn't see any activities.

Paradise Village is a good place to live, and an excellent facility. It's comfortable, a nice family, and we're pretty much satisfied. The staff is great, friendly, and professional. However, it's expensive.

Paradise Village gave us a lovely dinner. It was very well done. However, this was too large for me. It was overpowering. They showed me an apartment, which I didn't like. It was too bad because I met very nice people there. They had thousands, it seemed, of programs, but what I wanted was not there. They did have a swimming pool, but I didn't like their pool either because it was inside. Paradise Village was very depressing. They used dark colors, which was very unappealing to me. I don't like that. The reception area was overbearing. It was the feeling I got when I walked in there, it was this massive feeling and dark colors. There was no appeal to me at all. It wasn't the people's fault though because they were very friendly, and they gave me a beautiful presentation.

Paradise Village has tons of amenities like a library, an indoor pool, a gym, a snack room, and a couple of open community rooms. There is an activities director who is very much engaged. There is also a bus that takes the residents to shopping centers, supermarkets, and outings. It has a putting green, too. There were 2 restaurants -- one in the independent living side and one in the assisted living side.

Paradise Village is our top place. You don't have to buy into it, and you can pay rent. They had a nice swimming pool, nice gym, and plenty of places to walk around. The lady who took us around was very nice. The dining area looked nice. It had a little coffee area with the main dining area adjacent to it.

Paradise Village was the best place that we saw. They had nice rooms, and everything was top notch. If we had the money, Dad would have went there. They had an indoor pool, gym, theater, library, and a game room.

I visited Paradise Village. They have a chef, and the meals are excellent. They also have a pool and offer recreational activities in their pool. They also have an outside putting range. They seem to be very happy there. They have a gym, and offer music and dance. I saw people dancing there.

I am in Paradise Village now. It's very spacious and comfortable. There's room for all my furniture and collections. I moved here partially because of that. They give us a budget to eat and the rest we provide ourselves. The food is OK and tastes like restaurant food. They have an indoor, saltwater pool that's good for arthritic exercises and a gym as well. I was in assisted living, but I am now in independent living.

Paradise Village was a great, well-established community. They just didn't have anything available in the family suites. The staff was friendly and had a lot going on, so sometimes it's tough for them to get back to you. I've had delays in getting communications back when I was trying to talk to them. But besides that, they were very good.

Paradise Village is the one we chose. It was great and we loved it. Everything was really good. It’s a great facility: the activities, the atmosphere, and the friendliness of the people. There are too many activities to list, but most of the activities are nice. They have a movie theatre, a swimming pool, and a workout facility. The food is great

The food is good at Paradise Village, and the people are nice. They have some water exercises, which I need badly, and aerobics exercises, too. I am taking advantage of all their activities. I have a spacious, quiet one-bedroom apartment with nice, big windows, good lighting, and high ceilings. The older staff is good but the younger staff is pretty inexperienced.

Paradise Village is large and beautiful. It had everything you could ask for, but it was a little too big. If given a chance, I would recommend this facility because it is very nice. They have exercise rooms, games, outings, and programs. They also have a movie theater. They have an in-house doctor. The staff is wonderful. The rooms were nice.

Paradise Village was gorgeous, very big, and catered to people very well. They didn't have any vacancies and were still building their memory care facility. I needed to see what kind of memory care was going to be provided; however, they might not have the building completed and operational by the time my mother needs it. It was just too much of a gamble. I did love it, though. The facility was clean. The employees were delightful. I know somebody who works there. It was wonderful. They had multiple dining areas and a four-page ala carte menu if you don’t like what they’re serving on any given day. The chef came out to talk to me and assured me he would fix whatever my mother wanted to eat even if it wasn’t on the menu.

We went to Paradise Village. It was beautiful inside. The meals were great. We stayed overnight, and there just happened to be a party celebrating something in a room, so we met many fantastic people. They were so nice to us. However, you couldn’t have wine in the dining room. We just like wine with dinner, so, for us, I think that would be a big negative about that place. Also, we didn’t like National City. It didn’t seem like there were any shopping centers or nice restaurants around. The facility was beautiful, and the people were very nice. For our needs, I would give it one star, but for someone who doesn’t care about wine with dinner and not going out, it would be nice enough for them. Also, it only had an indoor pool; it didn’t have an outdoor swimming pool.

Paradise Village is beautiful. It has a ton of amenities, and it is reasonably priced. They have a gym, a salon, and a heated indoor swimming pool. They have a church service which is a Catholic Mass on Sundays. It has a theater and a restaurant in addition to the resident's dining area.

I just thought Paradise Village was wonderful. It is extremely well-appointed and had wonderful facilities. I talked to a lot of the residents, and they were whole-heartedly in praise of many facets to the place. The rooms look good, and it was a good value. Another thing that I have since found out is that a number of people that we know have been residents there and give it a really high mark. The person that was assigned to my sister and I think to another couple of people, and they were very informative and extremely pleasant. I was very pleased with it, and the residents seemed very happy.

Paradise Village was beautiful, and I liked it a lot. The staff were very accommodating. If it worked for me and I needed it, I would consider it. It was set up really nice. It's got an indoor pool and a restaurant. We did have lunch there, and it was very good, but the location was really the downside of it.

The staff of Paradise Village Retirement Community was very nice and very helpful, and they gave us a tour. The rooms were big and very clean. We liked it. We did not eat there, but the dining area was big and fine. I did not see any recreational activities, but I think their residents were happy.

I visited Paradise Village, and I thought they were a little expensive. But they had rooms that were nice although their studio didn't have a balcony. If you went to a studio, you have only a certain amount of food credit a month. That is all they give you. They have plenty of activities though. The community is very good, and I liked it. It will be very good for a person that is a little bit wealthier than I am. It is a very good community, but I can't afford it.

I really liked Paradise Village, and if my father-in-law gets worse, that’s the place that I would chose for him. It was all inclusive; they had even a bank there. They had a van that would take them to the grocery stores and activities, so it was a gorgeous place. The rooms were of good size and clean. The price was reasonable. The grounds were very nice; everything was very tidy and well-groomed. The staff was very professional and helpful. I met these guys, and they were very accommodating. There was a place where they were playing poker or blackjack which I thought was very entertaining. They had a gym and a swimming pool, and there were people working out. It was really beautiful.

Paradise Village is probably the nicest-looking place we had seen. It’s large, it’s new, and it looks more upscale to me. They have a huge swimming pool, and the apartments are lovely, lovely, lovely. They’re spacious enough, just beautiful. A young gentleman showed us around. The staff has been very friendly and very helpful.

My mom has been in assisted living now for a month and a half. It's called Paradise Village. So far, my mom is very happy there. People working there are good. The facility is about a block from the hospital if needed. They have everything that is needed within walking distance. Food there is great so far. I have no problems with it. Their rooms are a little bit small though.

I wasn’t happy with my visit at Paradise and it didn’t impress me. It was too big and exuberant. I didn’t care for the place at all. They have a lot of activities for the residents. It was expensive and the staff that took me on the tour was more like a salesman. It didn’t have a homey feel for me.

My husband and I completely enjoyed our recent stay at Paradise Village. Our room was beautifully decorated; in fact, the entire community exceeded my expectations. From the rooms, lobby areas, grounds, Wellness Center, theater, and restaurants went above and beyond any retirement facility I have ever seen. Everything was beautiful and elegant. The residents and their guests appeared happy and active and the central Plaza building had a wonderful liveliness to it. The staff were friendly and helpful - especially the dining team, who served us several fantastic meals. I would heartily recommend taking a look at the community.

We visited the Paradise Village assisted living facility in National City, near San Diego, CA as a place for our grandmother to live. As she has many friends in the region and has always liked the South Bay area, it seemed logical to visit the facility. The building resembles a resort community, with all the style and comfort of a secure gated community, but with a kind of exotic décor. Our grandmother has embraced vegetarianism, so we were thrilled to find so many menu options that catered to this lifestyle. She loves to swim, and the pool and spa were as nice as any we've seen at any hotel. The hot tub therapy includes a salon and the fitness classes could be tailored to fit her needs, which we really liked. While she was ambulatory, she was a regular member of the local YWCA. The wellness center would provide a lot of convenience for her. She really liked the theater and pointed out that many of her guests would enjoy the putting green. The Plaza area included a wonderful open atrium with restaurant dining and an outdoor patio. There is also a coffee shop and a library, which we know our grandmother will really enjoy, as she is an avid reader. Recreational activities were plentiful with tennis courts, walking paths, billiards, an art studio and many other cultural and social events. The chapel features a variety of religious activities and covers all faiths. This facility has everything that a senior needs in a retirement facility and more. Very well designed and thought out, with wonderful, caring staff.
