The Montecito of Santa Fe sits on Rodeo Road right in Santa Fe, New Mexico, serving as a senior living community that covers assisted living, independent living, memory care, continuing care, nursing homes, home care, respite care, and 55+ community services, and folks who move there can pick from different types of apartments and rooms so everyone can find something that fits. The place sets out to make life easier by removing the chores of owning a home and bundles in on-site help like housekeeping, laundry, linen services, even private housekeeping if someone needs it, and trained aides look after folks who live at home and need companionship or help with things like dressing, bathing, or medication. There's a nursing staff on site part-time for extra care, and medication reminders and hospice care show they're prepared for complex situations. All across assisted living, independent living, and memory care, staff are known for being kind, joyful, and helpful, and a focus on activities helps people keep busy-there's Tai Chi, yoga, stretching, entertainment, computer rooms, and programs to look after physical, social, mental, and emotional wellness.
Meals matter at The Montecito, where chefs and planners aim for taste and nutrition, and the community stays pet-friendly so folks don't leave their animals behind. Guests can dine with residents, and guest parking is available-for those who like company or get visits. Dining options include communal meals or room service, with a choice of kitchens and kitchenettes in many units so some people can make their own if they like. Fast internet and cable/satellite TV are in units and public spaces, which helps folks stay connected. Inside, people gather for entertainment and computer access, and there are places to sit and visit. Outdoors, there's a garden, walking paths, even hiking areas, which makes it easy to spend time outside, and there's an aquatic area with a hot tub spa. Transportation is included for shopping, appointments, or getting around, and religious and pet services are right there for those who need them. The building itself features state-of-the-art facilities with easy access for wheelchairs and people with mobility needs, and parking lots sit outside for residents who drive.
The Montecito offers all-inclusive rent or combined rent and care fee options to help budget better. For those planning an event or a meeting, the place connects with the local Convention Center and offers group hotels, venues, virtual tours, guidelines, and an online photo library for promotion-there's a focus on keeping things organized if someone wants to book a group or submit a request for a proposal. Housekeeping, maintenance, salon services, and wellness programs round out daily life, and folks can take a tour if they'd like to see things firsthand. People looking for long-term care, family caregiving information, or guidance on insurance will find experts who help them sift through those choices.
The Montecito of Santa Fe has a 3.4 rating from seven reviews. It's won recognition, including Best of Senior Living awards, for care and support in assisted living, independent living, and memory care.
