My mom moved in a few years ago and she loves the food. It's nice that there are 2 dining options to chose from as the menu's are completing different. Plus, no reservations needed and one of the restaurants has an all day dining menu!

The experience at atria Hacienda was not good. They Told me he needed to be in memory care which he did not. After eight days he left and they demanded another months payment which I am not paying. The whole experience was terrible. Trying to get someone to talk to me was impossible they would make you wait forever. They always said someone would get back to me and talk to me about the situation and they never did. It was an expensive ordeal with having movers move in furniture, and then having to move it all out the day after he left. It was not good.

I moved my Mother to this facility after losing my Father. At first, I was nervous having had to make the decision for her. We have been very happy with our decision!! My Mom has made many friends and is happy. The staff is also kind, caring and attentive.

They are understaffed and then force you to hire one-to-one care to the tune of [price removed] a month on top of their monthly fees. My mom's teeth were not being cleaned we found the toothpaste covered in scum from under the sink. Her clothes were dirty and they lost three pairs of eyeglasses. And they never encouraged her to go to activities they just let her sit in front of the TV all day long.

What we like the most about Atria Hacienda is the safe and ideal location with many services / shopping close. What they could improve on would be the Variety in menu options - refresh more routinely. Housekeeping - pay attention to common areas and keeping them clean and orderly.

I’m very impressed with how Atria is run. Administration is helpful and personable. All staff is friendly and address most on a first name bases. Almost like living in your own home. Lots of activities to participate in, and 2 movie times a day almost everyday . We get three meals a day and as much food as you want included in your contract. Extra services are based on your individual care plan. This is an Independent Living place. If you need more care, resources are available.

My dad is very happy there. The food seems good and the staff is very helpful and friendly. Lots of activities. It's like living on a cruise ship. There is a nurse practitioner who visits patients with house calls. And an in house salon for hair and nail care. And movies twice a day with candy and popcorn. And a social hour daily with cocktails as appropriate for the residents.

The value for cost is to say, elder care is expensive! She’s been there just [date removed] so it’s a little premature to rate, but I would definitely recommend this community to other families.

When my wife and I toured for her mom we noticed that all of the residents were smiling and welcoming. The grounds and buildings were also very well maintained and comfortable. The staff is very available and involved in ensuring that the residents are safe and happy.

Atria Hacienda is a Beautiful facility and restaurant quality food. However the interior hallways are maze-like and difficult to find one's way around. Excellent med tech care.

Atria Hacienda, Palm Desert, has greatly enhanced the quality of my life. I want to share life here. As an Atria Hacienda resident for over a year, I have enjoyed a nice apartment, excellent food, weekly outings, and skilled staff. This senior community sets a standard for others to follow. When the new Senior Executive Director took over, things changed. She focused first on hiring additional exceptional staff. She started a program where she meets with residents once a week, Monday mornings, to chat informally about any issues or problems, upcoming activities and improvements, and generally connecting with residents. On Thursdays, she joins residents for lunch in The Grille for relaxed chat. As a result, the connection between management and residents is strong. July 4th is a good example. The Engage Life Director brought patriotism to us with morning activities, a special holiday luncheon, a musical program in the afternoon, and an evening get-together with pizza, drinks, and games.

I love it, because my sister loves it. But i feel that a lot of the wonderful, positive things we heard, during our tour, wasn't quite true. What matters the most, (to me) is that my sister is happy, so that makes me happy ??

The transition from family living into memory care can be a traumatic experience. My husband was completely dependent on me and I was very concerned that moving would be hard on him. The staff was very understanding and helpful with transition. They have continued to be helpful and understanding. Daily activities are a large part of the therapy and a good variety are offered. The food is great and my husband enjoys every meal.

October 2023 I was recovering at home from surgery and had weekly home health visits. I was not making any progress. I was limited to my home without transportation and limited social connections. My home health nurse suggested respite care in assisted living until I recovered my strength, etc. Atria Hacienda was recommended and after my initial walkthrough with the sales staff, meeting many residents, I was convinced to make the move, intending it to be short term until I reached a point I was comfortable moving back home. Well it is August 2024 and I have enjoyed my experience and have depended on caregivers for daily dressing and showering, but most importantly what I found here at Atria Hacienda is community. I did not understand how important community and the daily social aspects can positively effect one's health and well being. I highly recommend Atria Hacienda for anyone considering assisted living. It will improve both your physical health and overall well being.

My mom was against any type of assisted living and refused to even give it a shot. When we toured, every single person we encountered gave us a reason on why she would be there. From the gals at the front desk, they were so welcoming. We then toured and our tour guide was very knowledge on the facility and activities going on. While walking around many of the employees walked right up to my Mom and introduced themselves I know she really enjoyed the attention she was getting. Then 2 patients living there walked up to her and introduced themselves ambassadors she really liked that. After our tour we had lunch at what they call the grill and the food was very good both Mom and I had egg rolls that were complimentary from the chef and panini sandwiches. Everything was excellent including the services from the waiters. Needless to say, after our tour Mom changed her mind on assisted living and we have decided on moving her in

[name removed] is independent and doesn't require any "care" other than housekeeping. The food takes an extraordinary amount of time to receive and is mediocre at best. [name removed] does not participate. She finds the activities ridiculous and condescending. It is very expensive for what she is getting. Food is terrible. She wants to move out as soon as possible. She has also not liked how they just come into her room without her consent. She finds the place extremely depressing. My husband and I think it is a fine enough place. [name removed] is very cognitively intact and doesn't like being around other "decrepit " people (she perceives it this way) and she is not very social. She absolutely HATES it there.

Mom has lived here for 3 months now and I must say this was the best decision. Mom has shared the stories of all the fun and exciting things that happen here and it really has put me at ease. The fact that I can contact Administrator directly really has brought comfort to our family. The responsiveness is incredible
