My mom is staying in Alta Vista Independent Living. It's a beautiful place, it's clean, well-decorated, and beautiful. The people are nice. They have a restaurant, they've got a movie theater, they do bingo, and they've got a lot of activities in there. It's a nice place. Her room is pretty spacious, she's got a 2-bedroom with a big patio. The rooms are nice and large enough for all her furniture, though the kitchens are small, they try to encourage the residents to go to the restaurant to eat. But the kitchens are still big enough so she's able to bake or cook. The food is really good. I haven't personally tried it, but my mom says it's very good and they have a good selection. The staff is nice and helpful. If she were to need help, she just pulls the cord so she can get someone to come up and help her with something if she's not feeling well. Recently, she had to be taken to the hospital so they called 911 for her. I wouldn't say that the food is spectacular, but it's decent. So they're good and they came pretty fast and helped her. The place is really clean, really pretty, and nicely done. It's expensive in my book, but it's worth it with all the things they've got to offer. They take you in the van if there are places you need to go, they have a lot of things so it's worth it.

We toured Alta Vista. It's an older place and we want something newer. The price was reasonable, though. We only talked to one person, but that person was knowledgeable. They have pretty much everything. They have meals, laundry, they have a salon, and a small gym.
The place was clean. But the rooms we saw were too small.
You really couldn't walk to anything from it, but they take you places.

My father will be moving into Alta Vista. It's an excellent, fantastic place. I would advise anybody to move in there. It was clean. Everything was laid out beautifully. He got a room with a balcony with a view, and he's got a washer dryer in his room. The bathroom and shower had safety rails, and there's a sitting area in the shower. He's got a full kitchen. It's just excellent. The people were just smiling all the time. They were happy. The staff was helping the ones that needed help. They had a doctor that's there 24/7, which I like. They had call buttons in their rooms like a hospital does, one in the bathroom and one in the bedroom. They carry a call button around their neck if they need help anywhere in the building. It was outstanding. They have two restaurants, and the food was excellent. They have a full menu to pick from. I talked to the people that were living there and they were really happy with it. Everybody looked healthy and they were playing games and laughing.

I will be moving into Alta Vista. I like everything about it. It was independent rather than assisted living. I have a washer and dryer in that apartment and everything, so I'm very pleased with it. I would grade them just as high as you can get because I wanted to move to independent. That is the main reason for me leaving my place. I want to leave assisted. I do not need assistance in anything. I'm able to do everything here and then some.
I was very pleased with what I saw. I liked the independence mostly, but everything was one step higher than where I am currently. I liked the staff very much. She impressed me as being an honest person. I could have a meal, but I never ate. I assume it's good because it's independent living. Eating is extra there and you have to pay for the meals. It was very nicely maintained and beautifully designed. It was excellent. I think they planned everything beautifully and it was a more recent building than where I am. They kept independent living separate from the assisted living. It was very nice. I was very impressed with the way it was organized and administered, and it just seemed like everything was OK.

Alta Vista in Prescott is too far for me. It would have been all right, but I don't drive that far anymore. I went to see their independent living. It's been weeks, but I know they had everything I wanted and everything I needed. It was just too expensive. The staff was excellent though.

We toured Alta Vista for myself and my husband, and it was absolutely beautiful. The apartment was just right, as far as how big it was for us. The food was wonderful. The people were nice and the apartments were beautiful. We only met two staff members, and they were a five. The food was delicious. The place is on a hill which makes it inconvenient for people to go up and down, but it is a beautiful place. It was well kept and well cleaned.

My experience with Alta Vista was great. The only issue I had with my visit is that I wasn't allowed to tour the place. I only got to see one room, and because of COVID, I wasn't allowed to tour. The lady I talked to was very informative, gave me anything I needed for information, and even followed up and sent some information I requested. That's the only person I talked to, so it was very good. The one apartment that I saw was OK. There was a snowstorm that came by, so they were just cleaning it up when I came in. I liked the apartment, but it was a bottom apartment, and my mom wouldn't like that. There was no view, no nothing, and it was kind of dark and dingy. I needed to see something that was going to be what she would actually be in. It would have been helpful. Because of COVID, their activities weren't as much, so I asked her for their pre-COVID activities, and she was going to send a list back to me, so I know what exactly it will be here in a couple of months. It was very informative. They don't really have a courtyard, so that was kind of disappointing. I walked around the building myself, and they had a little dog park, but no real areas to walk outside in. It's just a parking lot, but to make up for that, they also have a workout gym. My mom likes to walk, and she doesn't work out, so we'll have to find something better than that. That was one of the downsides.

My overall experience with Alta Vista, so far, has been wonderful. I have only dealt with a few people and they have both been very helpful and very nice. My mom is in a 1-bedroom apartment. I haven't been in it itself but I have been in one of them that has been shown for planning out, and they looked really nice. They have a gym, a spa, a movie theater, two restaurants, and different activities, but my mom hasn't partake in anything because she is still in the quarantine part of it. The value for money is wonderful.

Alta Vista was very pleasant and had a very nice location and nice staff. It has a very rich ambiance, and there were happy people there. The staff had been very friendly and very courteous. It seemed a very active community with a lot of card playing, Bingo, socializing, and spending time together.

Alta Vista was a very lovely place. If something happened to my husband, we probably would go there, but he's not ready. The staff was very pleasant. When I cancelled, they were very forgiving and they said "Come and see us anyway." They had good people there ,and I thought they were very caring and very pleasant. They had a nice bunch of people living there too. We ate in the several dining rooms and they had very good food. Some of the apartments I would say their rooms were challenged. In other words, you would face a blank wall, but they always had some areas that are open to a view, which was very nice. It was kind of an elevation so you could see some of the town. I thought there were a little more reasonable in their prices.

I am in and out of the Alta Vista Community all the time and I will say the staff goes above and beyond to make sure residents and family are taken good care of. I will also say that it is policy for everyone that comes into the community to check in at the front desk. This is their home and people try all the time to just come in like they can do whatever they want when in actuality the lobby is the resident's home. I support the actions of the staff! They are amazing!!
visitor Alta Vista facility
I had a very bad experience visiting this facility An extremely rude chunky woman probably in her fifties, who is supposedly a staff member at the visitors center (she did not introduce herself), approached to me and created a conflict.
I would never recommend this place to my elderly friends and relatives. This woman was screaming in a rage: This is my building!, meaning that she can do what ever she wants, including being rude with visitors. I found this place unsafe and unpleasant because of this staff member. I can only guess how she allows behave with retired elderly people, who cannot just leave this place as I did.

This is a new facility that offers senior apartment living and assisted living units. It is well thought out in the layout of units which come in a variety of sizes. It is open and airy with great views of the town and mountains. It is near downtown but very private and quiet. The staff is extremely helpful. The restaurants have the best food of any facility I have visited and a wider variety of offerings than in usual in this area. It is worth considering by those seeking maintenance-free apartment living or assisted living.
