Westmont Living

This community is the best! They not only take care for my loved one but the family as well. They are willing to answer any of my questions here. The staff are kind, and know the residents by name.

I'm very pleased with it. It's so clean and new and modern. It's just he sort of place that my loved one wanted. The staff are very friendly. It's definitely been an adjustment period for her, but it's getting better. There seem to be plenty of activities if you choose to participate.

I'm thrilled. I think they've been great. I like that there's a lot of light. The central area where the Alzheimer's group is located is very warm, and not sterile. It's clean and has a very good vibe. Some of the other places I looked at were dark and depressing. It's such a big difference at Mariposa. They have a great outdoor patio there too. The staff provides excellent care and is very loving. I haven't tried the food expect for the soup, and it was surprisingly good. I think they do a great job with activities and making them memory care appropriate.

The community looks so nice, and is open. The staff respects when the residents want time alone in their rooms. They have a wide variety of activities available. The staff tries to get the residents involved in the activities. They are very inclusive.

My loved one was there for a short amount of time. I would highly recommend them to others for their loved ones. The staff, it being a new community, the clean and fresh smell, and everyone was upbeat are all standouts to me. They were extremely careful during the pandemic, and I appreciate that.

Good place

What I am really impressed with are the people who work there, very kind, helpful and compassionate. The place is also kept clean and food is great.

Clean, safe, well laid out. Good communication from staff and management.

My Aunt was a resident of Westmont, both in the Assisted Living and Compass Rose sections until her passing. In both sections she received wonderful care and tremendous support from everyone at Westmont. The facility is new and beautiful with so many amenities that supported my Aunt's elderly lifestyle. She really loved her modern apartment and adored her caregivers. My family is also very thankful for the care, support and guidance shown to both my Aunt and our family during her time there and her transition from one section to another. The Westmont team, both administration and care staff, went above and beyond in providing amazing care, services and support to her and our family before, during and after her living there, always with dignity and compassion. We will be eternally grateful for finding such an incredible facility and loving staff, and we highly recommend Westmont to anyone looking for a care center for a family member. Thank you.

My mother is 97 years old. She lives here and I am so happy with this facility. The staff is wonderful with her. I miss her but I know she is being well cared for.

My loved one is well cared for at Mariposa. The staff is caring and I feel that the communication concerning my loved one and myself is excellent, especially during a time when I cannot visit my relative often during this covid season. I am comfortable knowing people are taking care of my relative as well as I would.

I chose this facility because the others I saw were very depressing feeling and did not offer much independence. This one offered more independence and had a good atmosphere. They also offer assisted living and memory care if that is needed. They also have different clubs to help new residents which I am a part of. Overall, it has been a good experience and I would recommend them.

We chose The Oaks at Nipomo because of the location, it was close to family and it is also a newer facility. It was built for what it is instead of being renovated. The room sizes here seem adequate for her needs. They have plenty of activities provided for the residents to participate in. I would definitely recommend.

The staff and community were amazing, they took good care of my mother. I would recommend this community to others.

We recently moved my 97 year old Dad from Florida, where he had been living alone. We had checked out several possible assisted living facilities but ended up selecting Mariposa at Ellwood Shores partially because the size of the place was not overwhelming and they allowed him to bring his dog. My Dad is now in memory care and I cannot say enough about the kindness and professionalism of the staff. As a bonus, the facility has been Covid-free and this has allowed the residents to have communal meals and also allowed for socially distanced (and masked) visits. The General Manager holds weekly Zoom meetings to update the families on issues and activities. We are convinced we made the best choice and have recommended Mariposa to others.

The entire experience has been terrific for my parents, and for me as I searched for the best community for my folks. The staff is professional, kind, and very caring, and the facility is wonderful - terrific apartment units and location near the Sandpiper Golf Course, excellent amenities (movie theater, dining room, fitness room, hair salon), and interesting activities to keep residents engaged (including a twice-weekly sight seeing bus tour around the Santa Barbara area). Even with the COVID-related restrictions, we’ve been able to visit my parents (following appropriate protocols), and we even arranged a picnic for my parents with their two grandchildren. My parents and I couldn’t be more pleased with Mariposa, and we feel very fortunate to have them at this wonderful facility.

This is a caring and friendly place for your loved one. I feel comfortable knowing my loved one is there. The food is good. The room is very spacious, has enough room for a bed and chair. The bathroom has a zero entry for the shower.

We looked into a few different facilities and we chose Mariposa at Ellwood Shores because of the proximity to family and we had high marks after our tour. The atmosphere is beautiful and the people here are very friendly. My brother is happy here and he refers to it as home. They do have a lot of activities to provide to the residents, but they do not interest my brother much, but he has met a lot of friends here. They do zoom visits with families every week and they have also been COVID free for 9 months. If I had to go to a nursing home, I would absolutely go here and would recommend to others.

BEAUTIFUL PLACE!! Has everything that I am looking for. Premises are immaculate and customer service is outstanding. Perfect place for me.

I am totally impressed with the Oaks. Since it is a new facility, it sounds like it would be clean, modern, bright, with many amenities.I also like the idea of a workout center with a trained therapist. I am looking forward to seeing it in person.
