Visitor obsercations

I have been visiting a friend who recently moved to your facility. I am a retired RN. I would rate your facility as most excellent. It is always clean and fresh in appearance, decor is great and currently being refreshed in all ways. I have been welcomed to join her and others at different meals times and have found the food to be well prepared, visually enticing, varied and....delicious. The staff is all very professional and are happy with their jobs which they all do very well. They are respectful and very caring of the residents. A very big thank you to everyone for such a wonderful place for my friend to live in.. She is happy, safe and comfortable in her apartment and in the facility. God bless all of you.

Review for Holiday Desert Rose

The food is disgraceful. The amount they charge deserves decent meals. These people have never eaten the terrible food they are fed. I complained about it but they don't care. No for reason I would not recommend them to anyone.

good place for your 'independent' parents

They received no care so we cannot comment on the care services, as well as the activities, they did not participate in them .Their house cleaners don't do a very good job they could improve upon that; they could improve upon communication. I've called twice and not received a call back.

My Experience

The food is disappointing and usually not enough. I've been told that if I want tea or coffee outside of meal time, to make it myself in my room. I've also been told at meals that I can only have one serving of tea or coffee. The facility is nice, and the food service staff is delightful. The transportation is more often than not unavailable for either vehicle problems or no driver. It makes me feel trapped here.

Desert Rose Experience

I do have a high opinion of Desert Rose. My mother loves the food and the staff. They have daily activities that are well attended and space for the residents to organize their own activities. Excellent in every category so far, and she has been living there for almost two months.

Review for Holiday Desert Rose

Desert Rose is a nice facility, in a convenient area of town run by friendly and caring staff. There are plenty of fun activities for residents and a van that can transport them to outings and appointments. It is a good value for the money but it is not an assisted living facility and you'll need to hire help from another agency if personal care is needed. There are some negatives to be overlooked or overcome. The food was often an issue as they do not consistently offer options for people with food intolerances. The common areas are in need of refurbishing (cushions are sunken in on couches and chairs). The van was out of service several times during the year my mother was there. The outside walls and windows need cleaning. There is no staff on duty at night. But, overall, Desert Rose is a nice, clean facility with a lot to offer for people who are fairly independent.

The staff is kind and they offer many activities. The facility is clean and inviting. I have a couple issues....in the apartment itself, there should have been a better inspection prior to letting my loved one move in... There was no power to the living room air conditioning outlet. The smoke detector was broken, not just a battery change. The bedroom air-conditioning unit was filled with black mildew or mold. It seemed as though there was no maintenance checklist followed prior to her move in. Oh!! One more thing....they need more dining room staff. It takes up to an hour to get food to the table from the kitchen. And there are very few vegetarian options.

Awesome Environment

My loved one does not like the food., but if they got a new menu and better food , it would be the perfect place. It is a wonderful place. The staff is fabulous, and everyone from the cleaning staff to the front desk receptionist is absolutely outstanding. The atmosphere is wonderful. The apartments is super nice. They offer activities all the time. They are very responsive about anything or issues that you may have. Everything is great. I would suggets, putting your loved one here. Overall, it is such a wonderful place.

Our 90 day experience

We decided on Desert Rose over other places we looked because the rooms were larger, the food was better, and it is all around a beautiful facility. The kitchen was a big problem during our stay here. Sometimes the meals were wonderful and sometimes they were not . The portion sizes were small and it was not consistent. Overall I would recommend them to others looking, they have a lot going for them.

Highly recommend

The value is one of the main reasons that we chose Desert Rose, they offer so much for what you pay. When I went down and spoke with them it was like going into a house, it has a southern mansion feeling and everyone was so friendly. I spoke to some residents and they had raving reviews about the place. They were coming up to my friend and talking with him and he felt very comfortable. It was a very good experience. We had lunch and the food was wonderful, they had little flowers on every table and it just felt so homey. I would recommend them to others looking. My husband and I would move here ourselves when the time comes.

I would recommend them

The person in charge of admissions was a little to pushy and salesy but the day to day staff members were wonderful. There were some things that were "hidden" that we wish we know of beforehand like it being private pay, but the facility itself was very nice.

Desert Rose has been like "a home away from home" for my parents. They have been so accommodating with the covid procedures and have treated every one with kindness and understanding! The atmosphere is wonderful and I highly recommend the facility to anyone looking for a great retirement home.

I love it here. I am alone and could not take care of a house and yard anymore and Desert Rose was the answer. It is a warm, friendly, fun community that I found instantly at home in.
