I am a physical therapist and recently visited Regency Point to work with one of my new patients. I was very disappointed by the way I was treated by the fitness coordinator, Karen. I brought my patient to the resident gym for therapy activities, and instead of being supportive or professional, she was extremely rude and aggressive. She refused to allow us to use the gym and made inappropriate comments, including saying that if I was “a personal trainer,” I should work with my patient inside her room instead. When I attempted to calmly explain the situation, she mocked me in a disrespectful manner. I also asked to speak with the manager, but the manager was unavailable at the time. As a healthcare professional, I always try to provide the best care possible for my patients, and this interaction was very discouraging and unprofessional. Unfortunately, this was a terrible experience.

I've now lived at Regents Point for 3 years. The staff are so wonderful that it felt like home after 3 days. The residents are so interesting and friendly that I now have many new friends and our discussions are wide-ranging.

As an active 80-year-old, I want to be sure that the next chapter in my life will provide a vibrant environment that will continue to challenge me. Since Regents Point is near UCI, the location is a big plus for the many opportunities UCI offers. And beautiful Mason Park provides tranquility and serenity for casual walks right out your front door. I am not yet a resident, but my Regent Point move in date will be soon. Through the kindness of Director of Sales Eric Salgado, I have had the opportunity for tours and various interactions including talking with residents who graciously hosted visits to their units. Observing the staff’s caring and friendly exchanges with everyone generates a feeling of family. Even the simple act of providing name badges (which everyone wears each day) signifies their desire for strong social engagement and meaningful relationships. It is a community which cultivates a sense of belonging. When friends asked my impression of Regents Point, I have described it as the ‘Ritz Carlton’ of independent living opportunities in OC. It is beautifully decorated, pristine, and feels so fresh. If you are looking for your next home, Regents Point will provide a warm, fulfilling and enriching life.

Great place. The residents are very friendly and welcoming, and they clearly remain actively engaged with the world. One example: The community maintains a large and well-organized library, with good depth across a wide range of interests. Another example: When we toured RP, a number of residents approached us to chat, and they were happy to show us their apartments. Eric from Sales also treated us as individuals and tailored his discussion to address our specific questions and interests. He devoted several hours to us during our tour, and many hours after that. Highly recommended.

My husband and I are active seniors in our 70’s. We wanted to do our children a favor by being proactive about downsizing our life. We decided to find a retirement community that would supply our current need for comfortable independent living, but also offer other types of care for the future — assisted living, skilled nursing and memory care. We are so happy to have found everything we desire in a senior community at Regents Point in Irvine. We are now living in a beautiful apartment that was remodeled to our specifications. The staff and other residents have proven to be very friendly and helpful. There is a strong feeling of community here. The amenities include a fitness center, library, a full service dining room (plus a separate Bistro), outdoor pool, lawn bowling and a putting green. The days are filled with a wide variety of activities. An added plus is the close proximity to the University of California, Irvine and Regents Point is adjacent to the beautiful Mason Regional Park for leisurely walks. We highly recommend Regents Point to any senior who is ready to find a welcoming home and community of friends.
