When I toured Atria Hacienda, I looked at both assisted living and the memory care sections. Both sections were very nice. I was very impressed with the staff. It was just very positive and welcoming.
The woman that gave me the tour was knowledgeable about the facility and about the different levels of care. She also showed a genuine concern for the residents there.
The dining was actually more like a restaurant area, where people could order things they wanted at any time. In the memory care, dining was more restrictive.
They had some water aerobics that were happening in the pool. In one of the rooms, they had puzzles and some arts and crafts. There were things happening.
They had a movie theater area that was nice, and they had a little sitting area. It didn't have an institutional type of feel. You had small living room areas, where people could gather, sit with their friends, or read. They were not just in a giant room together or in their own individual rooms.

I went to Atria Hacienda. It was a good tour. It's a nice place, very new, and modern. There are a lot of activities for people. Out of all the places I looked at, it was probably the best place as far as what it had to offer. It was expensive though. You pay for what you get and everything like that, but it was the best community that I looked at.
They got a bus to take people if they don't want to stay there. They've got a movie theater, they've got morning activities as far as tai-chi, and all those little physical activities. Onsite, they've got a physical therapy place. They also have a hair salon if the ladies want to go get their hair cut and I guess they do men as well. They had a lot to offer.
The issue with us specifically would be that I don't know if my mom would utilize all that stuff. She doesn't need a swimming pool or whatever, but they've got all that stuff if you want it. Depending on your age, you may or may not be using those amenities. The rooms were nice and big. I like their bathrooms. Their bathrooms were basically level walking; there was no step.

Atria Hacienda was a lot bigger and had more residents. The showers they had were a straight shot for someone in a wheelchair. So, there was no lip on the edge of the walk-in shower and it was much easier for wheelchair access. We don't really need that for now, but it's going to be at some point, and we're just being proactive. It's got a better layout and the place felt more like an apartment complex. It was nice.

After looking at several assisted living facilities, we chose Atria Hacienda to move my mom to 3 years ago. The apartments are good size (bigger than some of our kids!), they have kitchens with a stove, microwave, dishwasher and a full size refrigerator. Our mom's furniture fit nicely and that made her feel 'at home' in her new place. Our favorite part of her particular apartment is its fenced in patio that views the pool. It's also an end unit so she has lots of privacy. The units are quiet, very clean and well laid out.
We are impressed by how friendly the staff is, everyone says hi to you and smiles. The residents are all well dressed and seem happy too. My mom has played bingo, bridge, gone to the movies, enjoyed flower arranging and jewelry making - plus the additional entertainment that visits Atria. There's always something going on if a resident wants to participate.
My mom started with no additional care but now has help with bathing a couple times a week, and daily medication. Lupe, my mom's main caregiver, is a caring, compassionate lady - and my mom likes her!
COVID was a challenge for everyone but the staff worked hard to keep the residents engaged safely. We did weekly zoom calls that they set up. Those really helped keep all of us connected.
Their restaurant (and happy hour) is great. As soon as the COVID restrictions lift, we'll be back enjoying lunch or dinner with my mom. My mom turns 97 this year and we're happy she's in a safe environment that's close to her family.

We did an in-person tour of Atria Hacienda, it was very good. The room is very nice and I like some of the things that they have. They have a common area in the middle, you can have a patio, and you can walk out into the middle area but you can't get out from the middle area. Basically, no one can wander off or anything like that
Initially, we were gonna be off to food tasting But because of COVID-19 they couldn't do that for us, but they did offer. They did send us a complete video of a lot of the meals that they serve. We looked at the menu and probably counting everything, there were 18 different plates. Of all the places that we looked at or saw on virtual tours, or pictures of, and saw in person, I personally thought Atria Hacienda was the best. The staff was very friendly, very nice, and very accommodating. I wasn't able to taste the food but I saw a video of all the food and the chef they have. My wife looked at the video and she made a comment saying that it's almost like being on a cruise ship that doesn't leave the dock.

My mother stayed at Atria Hacienda. She started out independent and then went to assisted living. Everything was very nice and very good. I had no complaints at all. She just needed more care, and it was getting too expensive. It's very clean. She was on the first floor, and the landscaping was very nice. There were so many activities to choose from like Bingo, crafts, movies, popcorn nights, and live music. We were overall very pleased and mom loved it.

Atria Hacienda was a large community, and it felt more like a hotel. We visited the whole place and I was treated very well. They had a movie theater. The building was totally updated. They're very amicable. It had a Western look with Mexican style tile. Its appearance was more of a desert. They had bougainvillea, palm trees, nice landscaping, morning glories, and flowers all around. The dining room was nice.

I liked Atria Hacienda. The rooms were beautiful and very spacious. The staff was lovely. They had a bar, a movie room, an outdoor swimming pool, and a very beautiful and luxurious dining area. The food was very good, too.

I would give Atria Hacienda a 5. They had three dining areas, tablecloth linens, a salad bar, excellent choices, and good food, and there is a café that is separate from the dining. It is the best in the area.

What I like about Atria Hacienda are the people that are there and the people that take care of you. The rooms are very wonderful. You have choices of sizes that you want or need, so you make the choices according to what you can afford. The rooms are very nice. They’re exactly what I want. The food was excellent. I was given choices and options. Every time I come into town, I have been invited to go at lunch or dinner or whatever I want. The dining area is very nice. There’s 2 of them. There’s a dining area and a grill kind of. They have more activities than I can ever do in my lifetime.

Atria is probably one of the best of its kind, and I’m extremely happy with it. The care of the staff was absolutely wonderful. Mary is the person in charge of memory care, and there couldn’t be a better person. She is helpful, kind, and always ready and able to do anything she can to make my husband, and I am comfortable and satisfied. He’s only been there a week and a half, and I’m extremely happy. It couldn’t be a better situation.

The tour we had at Atria Hacienda was just wonderful. They answered all of our questions and were really good and accommodating. The one person who gave us the tour was so helpful and spent a lot of time with us. It was such a good experience. The rooms were a good size. The lady showed us the library and the other rooms where they do their activities. The food was great, and the dining area was nice. I liked the whole place because it was so family-oriented. The staff talked to the residents.

We visited Atria Hacienda. The staff was very lovely, nice, helpful, and not pushy, but they do call me all of the time. The room would have been fine for my neighbor, and she could afford it. They have a theater, movie room, and a lot of activities. We had lunch there, and the food was very good.

We are moving to Atria Hacienda. Their rooms have a top burner, a refrigerator, and a microwave. We want somewhere to fix breakfast but then eat the rest of the meals in the dining room. The dining room looked very pleasant. They had a nice menu, and you can eat anytime of the day you want. I was very pleased that Atria Hacienda could work with me quite a bit. It was the most expensive one, so I don’t like the price, but they have done a lot for me. It has been a very pleasant experience.

My parents are going to Atria Hacienda. We toured the facility, and it is absolutely beautiful. The people are nice and lovely. I feel very comfortable with my parents being there for the winter. They have a lovely dining, common, outside, and pool areas. The staff, of course, is absolutely attentive. It is really worth a five-star rating. They have a two-bedroom apartment that is lovely. It does not feel institutional at all.

I visited Atria Hacienda. It is the top-of-the-line. Out of the four that I have gone to, it is my favorite because of their flexibility. They have a dining room that is open. You can go in whenever you want to get food. You do not have to show up at noon for lunch or be cut off at 1 or 1:30, so I like that flexibility. The location is excellent. It is across the street from our regional mall and so there is many places you could walk to. Also they have early-morning walking in the mall when the weather is bad. They have two separate restaurants and very good and very nice rooms for the library and theater seating for movies. It is top-of-the-line, but it is also the most expensive. One bedroom is ranging around $4,400 to $4,600.

My friend is at Atria Hacienda. It is an excellent facility. There are lots of activities for the people. The food is fantastic. All the staff is very friendly. The facility is very clean. I looked at several facilities, but I felt Atria was the best.

Our experience with Atria is great. They are wonderful, and we are moving in there today. We decided to move our parent there because the staff is very caring and helpful. The facilities are beautiful. The food is really good, and it seems like a really nice place. The apartments are beautiful. Everything is clean and new. As for activities, you name it, they got it.

Mom is at Atria Hacienda. The staff was bending backwards to do everything my mom wants, and I think that is the reason why she is deciding to stay. It's one of the nicest places in the area. They also do her medications. Her room is very nice, and it is clean. It has a nice view.

I liked the Atria Hacienda very much. Everything about it was nice. If I were to consider going to a place that I could afford, that is probably where I would have gone. The room where my cousin was is small, but I did see the other rooms and they were larger. They were a decent size. The food was good, the facility was nice and clean, and I thought it was a good place to be.

What I like about Atria Hacienda is that the people are very friendly. My mom got into several conversations with different people. They seem to have a lot of different activities going on for seniors. They had a cute little beach shore place which is adorable. The rooms are pretty good, and their sizes are decent. The biggest issue I had with the room is that it's dark. It’s painted with dark colors and the bathroom also has dark colors. What we didn’t care for was their dining area as it was very much like a cafeteria. They have just very casual tables, and it just didn’t feel like fine dining. The food was outstanding.

I picked Atria Hacienda for my parents, and they will be moving soon. I chose it because it didn?t feel like an assisted living place. The apartments felt like condominiums and not like a hotel. Everything looks very new. The room is very clean and really pretty. They all have balconies or patios, and I really like that. The staff were very helpful, and they always tell me that I can call them, and every time I call them, they call me right back. We have eaten there several times, and there are two dining rooms, and the food is very good. They have a very large exercise room with an outdoor pool and Jacuzzi. I would like to live there. I would just like for them to have an indoor pool because when it's summertime, nobody can use the pool because it's too hot.

I did visit Atria Hacienda and I was about to sign a contract there. I like the facility very much. I like the layout of the place. I like the way the personnel interacted with the patients there. I had a one-on-one with one of the counselor and she was very helpful. They were able to check on me again. We had dinner there one night and it was excellent.

I have come across Atria Hacienda through an online senior services website. Its price was within the market. They're an excellent facility. They're very nicely laid out and I think they have the facilities to assist my dad. The staff was friendly and caring. They were very receptive and they did a lot of following up with me.

Atria had an extra staff for memory care patients. They actually had computer room for people like my mom that had some memory issues and worked with them. They don't have to be in a special designated place because she was not that bad. She could take care of herself. She just couldn't remember things. They had special program for people there in that place that they take them into these classes, which I thought was pretty cool. They had an indoor pool. I liked the food. I thought the staff was very knowledgeable and had more to offer for memory care people. They were friendly and very helpful. They had a nice dining room. They had a designated movie area. However, the rooms were smaller than where my mom was right now. It had a window but no balcony.

We chose Atria Hacienda because of the well-founded reputation especially for having excellent food. The caregivers were very accommodating and caring. Although on occasions, the serving people at the grill took a little too long to notice you.

The only problem that I had with the Atria Hacienda as with most of the facilities was there were not that many, I don't think there was any Spanish speaking personnel. Unfortunately, that's one thing that we need because my mom speaks very broken English. I need a place where she can relate to some other people. I am sixty seven years old and if I had my way, I would go there myself. The amenities were excellent, the staff was perfect, and I did not see any problems at all.

Atria Hacienda is very, very nice but it's just too small for me. The receptionist Gretchen is great. They have lots of entertainment, movies, bingo socials, and someone comes in to play the piano for them. I recommend Atria very, very highly.

I lived there for 8 years. I moved out once because I decided to live in a condo and I didn't like it so I went back. I had a lot of friends there. I was very active then and I was in charged of entertainment. I got 3 or 4 tables of bridge that I started and I ran it. I had a nice one bedroom apartment. The food is better because we paid more there. The staff there are fine.
I think that the top management there needs to improve in handling the facility. They try to ran it more and tell the residents what they want instead of asking the residents what they want.
