Coastal Senior Living is a small, licensed care home about 2.4 miles from San Juan Capistrano, California, with two houses in the area and room for six seniors in each one, and you'll see when you drive up that the place is a completely renovated 5,500-square-foot mansion with big bedrooms, walk-in closets, and amazing views of the ocean, the Dana Point harbor, and all the boats drifting by, which is something many folks enjoy watching from the windows or while sitting outside. This community is for seniors who need memory care, assisted living, skilled nursing, respite care, hospice, and even independent living-everything from help with bathing, dressing, and medication to support for health needs like high blood pressure or diabetes with specialized diets, plus things like music therapy or pet visits are part of daily life.
Residents here get three fine dining meals every day, snacks whenever they want, and all utilities are covered except the telephone bill, and rooms are furnished with linens, with options for single or double occupancy, because sometimes a married couple or siblings want to stay together, and there's always someone around since a 24-hour live-in concierge watches over everyone, making sure help is close at hand. There are wide-screen TVs in lift recliners, internet/WiFi, and spaces to read or just relax, with housekeeping, dry cleaning, and laundry all taken care of, so seniors don't have to worry about chores.
Families can schedule tours, check room availability, or send messages before coming in, and the place has a small community feel where staff focus a lot on social activities and making sure everyone's safe and comfortable, so there are activities like book club, art classes, music programs, sewing, and things like movie nights, museum visits, outings to restaurants, concerts, and even outings to the beach, plus sunset celebrations, s'mores by the fire pit, and gardening for those who like to keep their hands in the earth. The staff provide personal support for each resident and tailor care plans to what folks actually need, and if someone suddenly needs more help, there's a sister facility available for backup care and unexpected medical needs.
The home is all on one level and includes wheelchair accessible rooms, and special transportation is arranged with the CSL wheelchair van for doctor's visits, shopping, or church. There are visiting chefs and local musicians who drop by sometimes, and certain medical services like in-home dental and physician visits can be set up, so seniors really don't have to go far for basic care. The place uses an all-inclusive rent model, except for a $1,000 entry fee and whatever is needed for the phone, and people refer to it as a "luxury temporary or permanent home," though what stands out most is how the community aims to bring peace of mind to both the residents and their families by creating a home-like setting, offering choices for meals, daily pace, and giving folks a chance to stay independent while knowing help is there when needed. The license number for Coastal Senior Living is 306005619, and the mansion itself offers a warm group environment with privacy, dignified care, and genuine kindness, keeping things simple but comfortable for seniors wishing to spend their golden years by the coast.
