About Desert View Senior Living
Desert View Senior Living is an assisted living and independent living community in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving residents across multiple care levels. With a 4.2/5 Google rating from 31 reviews, the community operates with both independent and assisted care services.
Families consistently praise the staff's attentiveness and compassion. Multiple reviewers highlighted that caregivers go beyond routine tasks, one family noted the staff "really do care about each of their residents and their families." Food quality and activities draw positive mention, with one resident reporting that "the chef is open to new menu ideas." The physical environment is described as clean, comfortable, and non-institutional. However, reviews also surface concerns: some families reported delayed or unresponsive communication during critical moments, unmet medical requests, and visitor restrictions that were not clearly explained upfront.
The most glowing accounts come from families whose loved ones settled in successfully, with staff like Kelly earning individual recognition for building genuine connections. One family wrote of their mother having "the best year and a half of her life there." A smaller set of one-star reviews detail serious issues including ignored health complaints, extended family separation policies, and administrative inconsistency. These divergent experiences suggest outcomes may depend significantly on staff assignment and timing of placement.

My mom had the best year and a half of her life there. She made friends, did some of the activities, went to church and was given such good care by the staff. We did get charged for level 3 care when my mother was in the hospital and didn’t get the full 7 months of $300 discount but they said we would receive a refund. Kelly was such a blessing to my mom. She made her feel comfortable from day 1. My only complaint was with Ryan when I was trying to get answers about what standards my mom needed to meet to come back and what the move out policy was since I couldn’t find my contract.<br>They still deserve 5 stars ⭐️ in my mind.<br>My little boy Brady was allowed to visit and brought so much joy to everyone there. Mom and I miss everyone there. She’s unfortunately had to move somewhere with a higher level of care.<br>Last note, my grandmother lived here 17 years ago when it was called Willow Creek. I guess my turn is next.

We moved my mom into Desert View Senior Living (memory care) and could not be any happier. The staff to resident ratio is excellent and they take exceptional care of her. I have reached out on multiple occasions for guidance and always receive a quick response. I highly recommend this facility to anyone who needs memory care for a loved one.
