"I recently stopped by Belmont Village to visit my aunt who recently moved there. My cousins had had a hard time finding somewhere close, affordable and that seemed like it had good care and this was one of the few places that met all three categories (though to be fair, it seems like assisted living is just expensive all over). I was so impressed with the community - it looks more like a high end hotel than a senior living community. We had lunch outside at the pool and then I got the tour - a very pretty place all around!" - Isabel…

"As long as Frontier Management manages this property, I would stay away. The building is lovely, and some of the staff are great. However, they've had serious citations for lack of care. The company is all about cutting costs to the point of being unsafe. They put extremely unqualified people at the helm, which is why they can't keep anyone longer than a year. I know placements agents that will not refer here. I've seen residents in wheelchairs forgotten about and left in the bathroom, food poisoning, lots of staff turnover, and they've never had a consistent activities person. They give lip-service to their individualized approach to care via the Spark program. How can you do that with one activities person and sixty residents? They can't keep the place full because people move in, realize how it's run, and move out. It's a terrible company and I hope the owner changes course because it could be an incredible place. Do not be fooled by the beautiful building." - Nicole…

"Do Not Trust Ivy Park Playa Vista My family and I are deeply dissatisfied with Ivy Park Playa Vista. After two years of my father living there, we ultimately had to remove him and transfer him to another facility. Following our departure, Ivy Park continued to charge us, even drafting funds directly from our bank account without authorization. I am appalled by the lack of care and integrity we experienced. My father was enrolled in the Memory Care Program, yet he did not have the mental capacity to communicate the disturbing realities of his care—or lack thereof—that I later uncovered. It became painfully clear that both he and many other residents were enduring unacceptable conditions. The facility is chronically understaffed, a problem that has persisted for years. Despite the efforts of a few dedicated employees, even they began leaving for other facilities because the environment was simply unsustainable. Since January 2022, staff and administrators have turned over constantly." - Lorenz…
