I was skeptical at first that my grandma would be okay away from home but I feel like she has really come around and I think a big aspect was Sakura's cultural affinity; there are a lot of people here who share my Grandma's native Japanese language and culture.
I have seen more luxe places in LA but this place was very tidy and well put..." - Grateful

Recent Reviews on Independent Living in Los Angeles, CA
Adria S
January 2025
I am so grateful for the staff at Country Villa. The attending doctor was thorough with my husband's signs and had him returned to Cedars for further care. He was 'on it' from the beginning. The place is freshly painted with neatness a virtue. The food brought to my husband was both nourishing and delicious. And he is not easy to please! Everyone had smiles on their faces from the moment I walked into the facility. COVID tests are taken on each visit, which shows their concern for everyone. The group meeting was thorough with each participant clearly well-informed in his/her particular training. Further tests on my husband indicated that some of the 'goals' at this point, are not possible, but they could not have known that prior to the many test results. My only complaint, which was the complaint of my husband, was there appeared to be no heating in the place. My husband had/has a small room temp gadget that showed how cold it was at night. This is a good place.

My father lived in North and South. This place was special in our hearts. Took care of our father and gave him a fresh start at 80! Made wonderful friends, residents and staff. Stayed till he was 90!
I would recommend both buildings to anyone who cares about their loved ones.
Thank you!
