I'm staying at Fairwinds - Rio Rancho. It's very clean, very pretty, and very, very friendly. The people there are very friendly. There's a lot to do, and there are rides to go to the store, the pharmacy, and the doctor. There are rides, and they take care of you. There's a little workout room and there are things to do there like a reading group. They have things like that and that's a good thing. You can go to the desk and get help with anything and that's nice.
The staff are very nice. My room is very nice. I like it. There's a really pretty window that looks out. I enjoy that. I have not gotten my room cleaned too much because when I went to the hospital, they put a lock box on my room so that nobody could get in just for safety. So that meant that the cleaning staff couldn't get in too much. The dining area is very nice. They're going to have a Thanksgiving feast for families, which is nice. The atmosphere is very pretty. That's one thing that's very pretty. There are a lot of benches and a lot of little places to sit. If the weather is very nice, you can sit on the benches and just enjoy the atmosphere, and it's very nice there. Very pretty.

We visited Fairwinds - Rio Rancho and we ate there. The food was great, the people were very, very nice and they seemed very knowledgeable. They were upfront with us about all it entailed, what they had to offer, and things like that. We would move in there in a heartbeat if they have the third level care, like memory care and nursing care. Before any of the residents move into the rooms, they put in new carpets and new appliances. So when you go in, practically everything's new with fresh paint and everything. The facility was clean and their dining room was also clean. We enjoyed the food, the people that served us were courteous and very nice.

Fairwinds - Rio Rancho's staff was very nice, helpful, and friendly. The people in the independent side loved it there. The amenities are great and I was very impressed. They also have transportation. The rooms are very nice.

My parents moved into Fairwinds. I think they're really friendly, and it's beautiful. The amenities they're using are the beauty shop and the driver. The food has not been the best, and they have run out of the specials often. They're in a spacious one-bedroom with a very high ceiling. They have a nice courtyard in the backyard. The staff is very nice.

Fairwinds in Rio Rancho has everything that I was looking for. The staff was very good, helpful, and accommodating in showing me what I asked for. The community is up on a hill and away from the traffic, which is what I wanted. They just won't have any apartments available for a few years on the first floor. They have a movie theater, library, exercise room, luncheon dinner facilities, and they take residents to stores and to the doctor.

Mother and I looked at several facilities and when we talked with the staff and saw the gorgeous bright dining room and had several of the residents say "hello", we knew we had found the perfect place for Mother.
They were over the top when it came to helping Mother get adjusted. The day she moved in, they had balloons and a big "welcome home" banner hanging in her room...of course, both of us burst into tears....tears of appreciation...

Fairwinds - Rio Rancho was great. The problem was it was too big, and my brother got lost in there. If he had participated, I think he would have loved the place, but he just held up in his room, went down for his meals, and sat by himself because they had restaurant style dining, and the food was excellent. There wasn’t anything wrong with Fairwinds. It just wasn’t the right fit for him, and it was too big of a facility. They had a lot going on down there; he just didn’t participate.

Fairwinds-Rio Rancho is a great place that's reasonably priced for my mother's services. We picked Mom a $2,400 a month studio combined with an additional $200 a month of extra services, but these include an enormous amount of stuff. There is a menu of additional services that you can pick from such as medication, inhalers, and showering. There are also elevated services that become available as needs become necessary. My mom came down with a horrible gastrointestinal sickness and shortly after that, other residents started coming down with the same sickness, so they locked down and quarantined the entire building to stop it. It took a couple of weeks, which was hard on the staff, the residents, and the families, but I appreciate the fact that they were so diligent to make it stop.

Fairwinds was wonderful. The residents were active, engaged, and fun. We looked at their apartments. Although they were a little dated, they were clean and the roomiest we've seen. It was the most reasonably priced of the ones that I visited. The location was great for me. It had a homey atmosphere. The residents were involved in all kinds of activities and had fun. I took my parents for dinner there. The food was superb, and the wait staff was really good. I would recommend them.

We moved in at Fairwinds - Rio Rancho. The place is satisfactory but costly. The staff are professional and very friendly. We get all of our meals here, which is a plus.

I’m living at Fairwinds Rio Rancho right now. It’s very elegant and very luxurious. The staff is very caring and very friendly. I live in a 720-square-foot apartment. It has one bedroom, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. It’s a private room. The grounds are fine. It is probably the least expensive of the most luxurious places to live in.

Our tour at Fairwinds went really well, and we were impressed with the facility. The rooms were nice-shaped and were nice space-wise. The space was used very well and wasn't dead space. We were impressed with the room and the staff, and it seemed to be very busy like everybody was doing something, going here and there, so it seemed very well. I feel that the package they give was very informative, they answered any questions we needed to know, and pretty much everything is a really good facility as far as the care for elderly, their doctors, the care-giving, and the stages. I was very impressed.

Fairwinds - Rio Rancho is excellent, and my dad is there. The facility is very manicured, well-kept, modernized, and remodeled. It is very easy to get around and maneuver through. It's a nice facility. There is a ton of activities on the calendar. The food is great. They offered us several free meals when we came to visit. I would highly recommend it.

Ditto on all the other reviews, however, the monthly rental rates are not as prohibitive as others in the ABQ area. I visited many facilities in the area for my Mom, and I fell in love with Fairwinds because of the positive happy energy I felt the moment I walked into the front doors. All the residents seemed very happy and well taken care of. The food was great and the apartments were sunny, clean, modern and inviting, I was impressed with the amenities, including the transportation, and the management staff were very personable. I also like the fact that it feels very safe. The property is very well taken care of. I would love to see my Mom as a resident at Fairwinds, as she lives in Rio Rancho and would not have to transition out of her community, and I think she would be happy here.

I was very impressed with Fairwinds. The only reason that I didn't choose it is that their community is a little more active than my mother, and so there weren't quite as many things for her to do.

The friendliness of the staff at Fairwinds impressed me the most. They offered many activities, like exercise classes. There was a bistro off the lobby, and the food was excellent. Residents and staff stopped and talked to us. The staff and residents were extremely happy and interactive with each other.

We chose Fairwinds - Rio Rancho because it's pet friendly, and it seems to serve all of my wife's needs. They have a restaurant inside, and a bus service that will take them anywhere. They have outings everyday if you want to go to a casino, grocery store or doctor's appointments. The food is good if you go there once, but then it gets routine. They have a daily special, and then everything else is the same everyday. They provide two meals per day, lunch, and dinner; which are part of the rent. You can also buy breakfast if you want or you can just have oatmeal or a bowl of cereal. She has a refrigerator, and a microwave in her room. They can improve on responding to requests. There are a couple of things that I questioned. The remote of the TV didn't work; I requested for her to get a new one. It's been two weeks, and she still doesn't have a new one. I've contacted the general manager a couple of times for this kind of stuff, and it gets handled right away. She has been there for two months now.

Fairwinds - Rio Rancho was very nice. They are in an area that has less traffic and a lighter population. I felt much more comfortable in this facility than other places I visited. It is pretty good but very expensive. The staff was just as nice as could be and very accommodating. The residents seemed happy to be living in this facility.

Fairwinds was excellent, beautiful, and very nice. It offered everything my mother needed like transportation services, and their transportation policy kind of throws on it. My mother wanted to drive. She goes to her activities, and there is an extra fee for that but that’s fine. Fairwinds offers that, and the other facilities did not.

I just looked online and found Fairwinds - Rio Rancho and thought it might be in my price range. The staff were very nice. The rooms were very clean. The dining room was very pleasant. They had movies, Bingo, a lot of different groups that did things, and exercise. The facility seemed to be pleasant and comfortable. I was really impressed.

Fairwinds is very nice, but it is expensive and it doesn't have continuing care. The staff was very nice. I looked at the menu and it was outstanding. The rooms were very nice.

We had mom at Fairwinds. The rooms and the people were very nice, but the other service staff seems to have no direction.
