My friend will be moving into Aegis of Aptos. It's beautiful, the people are friendly, and I got a nice tour. I didn't see the food, I just passed by the dining area. The room I chose for him is being refurbished. It's gonna be painted, have new floors and new rug. It's a 1-bedroom, it looks spacious, it has a nice view, and it looks nice. The staff during the tour was very nice, easy to talk to, I can call her anytime and she answers. They play games in the game room, they had a library, they had a room with exercise if they wanted, they had an outdoor area that's beautiful, and they could garden if they felt like it. By looking at it, it looked wonderful, but we haven't experienced it yet. The staff was very helpful and very clear on what the cost is. I liked that the facility was really spacious.

Aegis of Aptos seemed like a very nice large home. It was very clean. Everything was modern. They had a dining room where you could choose your meal. They had religious services. They had day trips. They had garden activities, and they had a nice outdoor area. It was very upscale. They had a lot of good activities. They had singers that came in to sing for the folks there. They served 3 meals a day, and you could get food anytime you wanted. They had a nice little area that had fruits, ice, and coffee. It was like a little café. They provided free travel on certain days of the week. The staff was excellent.

Aegis of Aptos seemed really nice, and from first glance, I’d give it a 5. But it is more expensive. The order they were serving was amazing. They were just an amazing order of trays in the middle of the day that anybody could help themselves to between meals. They had live entertainment, they had what looked like a really nice menu, and the seating in the dining area looked like a fine restaurant. The rooms were nice looking, and everything looked really clean.

I visited Aegis. My friend and I love it. It’s beautiful but too expensive to me. The food was exquisite. I went there at tea time, and it looked like you’ve gone to a grand hotel for tea. There was a very nice musical program going on. The surroundings were nice. If you’re still ambulatory, it's walking distance to shops, grocery stores, banks, a drug store, and even a health club. They have their own facilities, like a very nice beauty shop. They allow small pets. The rooms were lovely. You can either have an efficiency room or a one-bedroom. They have all kinds of games, reading, music, presentations, and bridge, and a bus that takes people places. The community was bright and light, like a lovely hotel.

Aegis of Aptos was lovely, very nice, and more upscale. The rooms were nice. If you have the money, it is a nice place to go. The dining room was beautiful, big, and had a view outside. The staff member was accommodating and told me right out that I probably can't afford it because I told her what I could afford, and I appreciate that. It all boils down to money.

We visited Aegis of Aptos, and it looked good. It was all really nice. I didn't go in the apartments. I was just in the dayroom, the dining room and the offices. The place was attractive, clean and well organized and the people seemed happy.

Aegis of Aptos was actually beautiful. We would have used it if my aunt had decided to move. The rooms were very adequate, nice, and clean. It looked like a good place that offered a lot of different things.

We visited Aegis of Aptos, and the staff was helpful. They answered all our questions. The rooms were clean and larger than other place that my family had seen. It seemed very homey and not institutional.

Aegis of Aptos is a very beautiful facility. It's like a big apartment complex almost. The quarters are wide, well-lit and very comfortable. It has an outside are that was completely fenced. There are a lot of places to sit in the garden. I was looking at the memory care unit and it was divided into two separate sections. They have a very good staff-to-patient ratio. They serve quite nutritious foods and they have a lot of options to choose from. It was really a great facility, however, it was just too expensive for us.

The Aegis of Aptos was in the same vicinity where we were visiting the area to look at possible places for our aunt to live in. The facility looked like it was well tended the grounds were neat. The outside area is ample, with plenty of seating areas to enjoy. The interior had a nice decor. The variety of activities offered was impressive. Just about any hobby you might have can be accommodated and more. The staff goes out of its way to suggest stimulating things to do from spending time outdoors to reading, playing games and taking outings in the community. The rooms we viewed were all very clean, well-kept and inviting kind of resembling what you might find at a hotel that rents out small apartments but a bit more personal. The lunch we saw while there which was really delicious. Residents can order from a menu filled with impressive selections. Our aunt loves to be outdoors to exercise, but also use gym equipment, so we liked that the exercise room was large and had a variety of options to choose from. The library had a large book selection much of which was loaned from the local library. Our aunt would really appreciate this. Overall, the facility really looked like a place our aunt would like to live. We didn't see anything missing it just looked like it was all right there, with kind and proficient staff in a secure environment.

Aegis of Aptos is near the ocean, in a nice residential area. The food is great and there are many activities for residents. I really like the Dementia care unit--it is designed from the ground up to accommodate the special needs of dementia residents. Several of my long term care insurance clients have chosen Aegis when living alone at home with disabling conditions became too difficult, and they report 100% satisfaction with the exceptional facilities and care received at Aegis
