Earlier this week I visited a friend who lives at Sandia Vista. An extra special visit as they were hosting a Luau...festive decorations, a delicious variety of Luau type foods and Polynesian dancers. Everyone was enjoying the day and comraderie. Every time I visit, there are friendly hellos and folks involved with each other in various activities or just relaxing. A wonderful environment.<br>Sydney W.

I recently had a client whose family was looking for the right place for their mom. She was understandably reluctant to make a move, so the family asked me for a recommendation on a community that would not only take great care of her, but also be somewhere she could truly enjoy, feel secure, and become part of a warm and welcoming community.<br><br>Without hesitation, I recommended Sandia Vista Senior Living.<br><br>The biggest reason is their hospitality. I have been working with Erica, and she is genuinely one of the nicest people you will ever meet, and it is immediately clear how much she cares about her residents and their families. She goes above and beyond to make the situation a win-win for everyone involved.<br><br>There are so many emotions that come with making a decision like this, and Erica has an incredible ability to empathize with families, help them work through those emotions, and ultimately guide them toward what is best for their loved one.<br><br>I couldn’t recommend Sandia Vista enough, their hospitality, amenities, and offerings are unmatched here in NM, and I help a lot of people make this move. I always first recommend Sandia Vista.<br><br>If you’re looking for independent living community where your loved one will be cared for, feel secure, and be welcomed like family, Sandia Vista is absolutely worth considering.

I visited recently and was amazed at the quality and cleanliness of the facility. Erick was very warm and receptive to my needs. The units were very beautiful. The activities list was very lengthy. There's at least 6-7 activities events everyday

This facility is amazing. Erika was extremely helpful and made the transition for my sister easy. They have field trips and tons of activities to keep the residents busy and happy. The atmosphere is upbeat and all the staff are very kind. My sister loves it here and I am so grateful to the entire staff. I highly recommend them.
