    Caring staff great facilities costly

    I'm generally very happy I moved here - the staff are caring and responsive, emergency response and security are excellent, and the campus, grounds and rooms are beautiful. The food is often delicious with many dining options, and there are endless activities and top-notch amenities (pool, fitness, bocce, trips, clubs) so I stay active and social. Housing choices are spacious and well-appointed, but the buy-in and monthly fees are high and recent dining closures/changes have hurt accessibility and social interaction. Overall the care and facilities exceed expectations, though expect steep costs and occasional curt staff or management hiccups.
