The staff is friendly, caring and attentive. The facilities are clean and there's plenty of natural light in the home. We could not have found a better place for our family member who needed care and comfort during his final months.

I toured several facilities when my dad needed assistance in his twilight years. After visiting Desert Gardens, I knew that I didn’t need to look any further. Given that I live out of state, I was concerned about the quality of care he would receive if I wasn’t visiting on a daily/weekly basis. Tiffany and her team checked in with me regularly and put my mind at ease. They were so incredibly accommodating to all of my dad’s needs and so caring throughout his stay.

Great care, they actually know what they are doing. They care and feels like family.

We loved Desert Gardens! My Mom arrived at DG last year in very poor health. The kind and caring staff at DG helped save my Mom’s life. The manager, Tiffany, was always extremely helpful and communicative with me (which I so appreciated especially since I live out of state). The entire staff really, genuinely cared for my Mom and her health and safety. The meals and food they prepare at DG are delicious and well balanced. The home itself is clean, well maintained and rests in the beautiful foothills of Tucson. My Mom loved to sit outside and enjoy the mountain view. We had a private room with its own bathroom; which we were so grateful for because that wasn’t always an available option at other homes. At DG, the residents and their families are the number one priority. My Mom has recently left DG to return home, but while she was there, I had peace of mind knowing she was safe and well cared for. My Mom has said she misses the staff and the residents that live there. I absolutely, highly recommend Desert Gardens!

Where does one begin in trying to find the best place, the final home for one's loved ones? This was the question facing me in seeking a home for my two elderly parents. To make a long story short, the task is incredibly long, frustrating, and difficult. After visiting a dozen places and having moved my elderly parents from two assisted living facilities, I could not believe my good fortune in having been connected with Desert Gardens on Hacienda del Sol Road with Tiffany and her amazing care team. I was incredibly fortunate to have both my parents live there from May 2021 until their passing in December 2022 and 2023! In short, I could not have asked for better care on every front for my parents. The actual physical home is absolutely gorgeous, with the center piece being a living room floor to ceiling picture window focused on the Catalina Mountains. This view oozes relaxation and calmness. The meals are nutritious and tasty, and as much as possible, the staff always tries to accommodate individual requests. There are regularly scheduled activities for the residents, and the once a week art session with Martha is phenomenal in revealing hidden and/or buried artistic talents or just helping residents build on their artistic creativity. I loved observing how my parents' cognitive functions improved overall just from this experience! While the above-mentioned aspects of an assisted living facility are important, they mean nothing if the nursing and medical care is not excellent. This is THE reason my parents remained here until their passing. Tiffany and her team is unsurpassed in Tucson in this regard. In fact, when my mother entered Desert Gardens, she was in hospice due to terrible care at another local assisted living facility. My mother flourished at Desert Gardens and eventually came off hospice. I never had to worry if my mother was receiving her meds, and I was always notified in a timely matter about significant changes in her status. In terms of patient care, she was attended to in a timely manner, and the caregivers were extraordinary in their compassion and work with residents. While Desert Gardens is as close to "perfect" as one can get, no place is perfect. Another aspect that I really appreciated was how Desert Garden's staff and leadership approached problems and issues. If I had an issue or problem concerning my parents, Tiffany, the manager, and Chaz, the owner, were always willing to have a conversation and address the issue. This willingness to communicate with residents' families was critical in helping me entrust my parents into their care, especially living 1500 miles away. If you are looking for a phenomenal assisted living facility, look no further! You have found one in Deserrt Gardens Hacienda.

How our free service works, and how we are paid

Arizona asks us to share this with you in writing before we introduce you to a community.

MyLivingChoice is a free service that helps you find senior living. We are paid by our participating communities: if you move into a community we introduced you to, that community pays us a referral fee. You never pay us anything.

We do not own or manage any community, and none owns us. Our only ties to the communities we list are the referral agreements that pay us and the listing upgrades some buy. A community that pays us is marked Partner or Sponsored on our site, and a community that has bought verification is marked Verified.

The communities we suggest may not be every one in your area, and we can only make introductions to communities that work with us. We suggest communities by the care you need, the area, your timeline and budget, and what families say about them, never by what a community pays us. If a community stops meeting our qualifications, for example its licence lapses or it stops accepting referrals, we stop suggesting it.

To make an introduction we share your name, contact details and the care needs you told us about, and nothing else. You can stop using our service at any time, for any reason and at no cost, and if you do we will let any community we introduced you to know.

Arizona law requires that we provide you with the following disclosure notice.

We are in the business of referring residents to assisted living facilities and assisted living homes. We will be paid by the assisted living facility or assisted living home if you move into one of the referred assisted living facilities or assisted living homes. The fee we receive from the assisted living facility or assisted living home into which you move typically ranges from 50 to 80 percent of your first month's rent and care charges. We do have a current business relationship but we do not have a common ownership or control in, or any other financial, business, management or familial relationship with, any of the assisted living homes and assisted living facilities to which we are referring you.

By providing us with a written or electronic notice, you have the right to terminate our services to you at any time, including our use of your personal information. If you terminate our services, we will not be entitled to any fee for any move-in you make after the date of the termination notice unless either:

1. The assisted living facility or assisted living home you choose within the next twelve months is one that we specifically identify and refer to you after we evaluate your profile and requests but before we receive your notice of termination.

2. You communicate with us before you move into the assisted living facility or assisted living home.
