    Lovely community but costly, understaffed

    I live in the independent-living section and appreciate the villas/apartments, friendly staff, good food, active programs and the life-care continuum to memory and memory care. However, the upfront cost is steep (large down payment/upfront investment) and the exit refund policy is unclear/terrible; new management seems money-focused and caregiver/CNA staffing is limited - it's not like it used to be. I enjoy the social life and accommodations, but the cost and staffing issues worry me.

    About Splendido

    Splendido is a Life Plan Community for adults aged 55 and better, sitting in a spot with breathtaking views of the Santa Catalina Mountains, where people can find both villa and terrace homes that are contemporary and comfortable, and all the buildings have wheelchair accessible showers, with many types of accommodations like apartments, resort-style spaces, guest ranches, and destination spas, plus amenities such as a holistic wellness center, spa, and a leading-edge fitness center, so there's always something for body and mind. You'll find lots to do here, because there are activities that let residents engage socially, physically, mentally, and emotionally, which helps everyone connect and feel part of a friendly and social community, and dining is a big focus too, with carefully curated menus, vegetarian options, and distinctive restaurants, along with fresh Mediterranean cuisine. Splendido offers unique food and drink tours, culinary events, and connects with the City of Gastronomy, plus things like golf, nightlife, shopping, kids' activities, and various arts and entertainment options.

    People living here can feel secure knowing there's a continuum of care available through Sonora at Splendido, so as care needs change, the community can support independent living, assisted living, memory care for Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, skilled nursing, high acuity care, diabetic care, incontinence care, and non-ambulatory care, including help with daily activities, and there's a unique Life Care Plan that's the only one of its kind in southern Arizona, which means residents have support as health needs grow. The staff keeps friendly hospitality a priority and meals are nutritious, with quality ingredients, and the community takes pride in services that are distinctive and tailored to individuals. People can join health and wellness programs, take part in nature immersion, creative arts, and sound bathing, and enjoy wellness activities that help with long-term good health.

    There are helpful resources for senior care planning and caregiving, including a documentary called "Time to Get Ready" and real resident stories, so families and future residents can learn what life is like here. Splendido has been recognized for its innovative wellness programs and keeps a strong focus on helping residents explore, learn, and connect, with on-site skilled care for those needing more than assisted living. Staff offer personalized support, and the community supports active, vibrant living for seniors, but what stands out is the unique Life Care Plan not found anywhere else in southern Arizona, making Splendido a forward-thinking choice for those wanting a place to stay involved, supported, and well-cared for, all within a setting that feels both lively and welcoming.
