Villa Capri at Varenna sits in Windsor, CA, right along Fountaingrove Parkway, and it brings a boutique approach to assisted living and memory care in a two-story building with elegant architecture, blue skies, and landscaped grounds with terraced vineyards and gardens, which really makes going outside pleasant for gardening, relaxing, and soaking up the sun when the ocean breezes come through, and residents have choices between well-appointed studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartments, each with large windows, kitchenettes, emergency call systems, and finishes that look modern, while the living environment stays clean, well-maintained, and supportive so everyone feels safe and at home. The staff here is dedicated and you always see nurses and caregivers on hand, with a nurse present all day, every day, working alongside a team focused on providing compassionate and respectful support, especially with dressing, medication management, and daily tasks, because they want residents to feel independent but know help's there if needed, especially in their specialized Traditions memory neighborhood for those who need more support. Activities happen all the time, both inside and out, and range from book clubs, group walks through Sonoma County, and outings for shopping, to movie nights in the plush community theater, sessions in the fitness and yoga studio, music programs, hobbies, crafts, and resident-led gatherings, which keeps people engaged physically, socially, and mentally, with a full-time engagement director planning new things to do. The environment feels warm and welcoming, with a lobby that has a piano, fireplace, and comfortable seats, and amenities like a pet park, library, activity center, beauty salon, bistro, and shaded courtyard seating areas where you often see people enjoying a meal or chatting with friends. Residents have access to a wellness center with visiting physicians, a concierge who arranges transport for errands or appointments using a community Cadillac, and help with errands, laundry, housekeeping, and meals, direct to apartments for privacy or in the formal dining room for more social meals with white tablecloths and classic décor, while the culinary program provides various seasonal menu choices and can prepare special diets when needed. Memory care and assisted living services follow a boutique, personal approach in a family-owned setting, which means staff take time to get to know residents and their families, and everyone benefits from flexible support and strong community ties. There are independent living options as well, so folks can move in at their own level of need and get more help if things change, and between the variety of housing options, amenities, attentive staff, and curated wellness programs, Villa Capri at Varenna aims to make every day both safe and comfortable, with ways to stay active and enjoy life in a peaceful, beautiful part of Santa Rosa close to local culture, medical care, and recreation.
Villa Capri at Varenna
1397 Fountaingrove Pkwy, Santa Rosa, CA, 95403- Assisted living
- Memory care
Beautiful community with some concerns
I moved my mom here and was impressed by the gorgeous, hotel-like European design - spotless, bright apartments, lovely courtyard and plentiful amenities. Staff are caring, knowledgeable, and often go above and beyond; memory-care support and on-duty nursing have been reassuring, and activities/dining are strong. Downsides: it's expensive, there have been occasional staffing/ training hiccups and meal inconsistency, and communication can lag. Overall a beautiful, full-service community I'd recommend if the cost and staffing concerns are acceptable.
