Absolutely gorgeous community from the moment you walk in. Becky and her team are phenomenal and help you at every turn. From the outstanding food to the robust activity calendar. The views are just perfect. Trust me when I say that you must check this community out.

My Mom and Dad have been residents for about 5 months and they are very happy. They constantly rave about the staff on the floors but especially Ryan and McKenzie. Personally Joanna has been an overall superstar. She has helped me with so many details and supported and provided options. Recently my mom was admitted to the hospital and the staff including Kelly has helped get my dad to the hospital. Joanna even went to visit my mom in the hospital. The new management team are making some important improvements as well.

La Sonora at Dove Mountain is a fantastic community in the Oro Valley area. I have had the pleasure of working with Joanna to move several of my clients there. What I love most is the variety of living options, from Independent, Assisted Living, and Memory Care all on site. The staff at La Sonora do not shy away from individuals with high care needs that other large facilities would turn away. You can move her and know that no matter what your future will bring, La Sonora will have you covered.

My dad is very happy at La Sonora! He loves the food, has made good friends, and is really enjoying all the community has to offer. In the short time he’s been there, he has become engaged in lots of activities and has even joined a committee. The staff provides great care and is cheerfully responsive to his disability needs. Management has been easy to work with and attentive to the family as well as Dad. This is all in stark contrast to the year he spent in a different facility. I’m so glad he made the change to La Sonora.

La Sonora's representative, Danielle, did a very fine job showing my wife and I around the beautiful facility. She answered our questions and provided a straightforward but warm experience. The residence apartments were spacious and well designed for adding one's on touch for decorating and even appliances. The dining rooms and other community rooms were very comfortable and had great lighting for reading or other activities. We're beginning our research regarding Independent Living arrangements and were very thankful for this fine start with our adventure.
