Vi at La Jolla Village, a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) in San Diego's "Golden Triangle," offers many options for seniors who want to stay active and comfortable as they age, and folks there will notice the high-rise building is filled with natural light and looks well-kept, with thoughtful extras around each corner like access to elevators so people can join activities easily. The community sits close to high-end shops, parks, walking trails, and dining spots, and many apartments have nice views. The apartments for independent living come in more than 40 floor plans, from 639 to 2,618 square feet, including options for one or two bedrooms, and sometimes extra rooms or basements, and residents can have pets up to 35 lbs.
There's a salt-filtered heated indoor pool for swimming, a therapeutic whirlpool for relaxing, and a modern fitness center with TechnoGym equipment, treadmills, bikes, and classes like Tai Chi, Zumba, and weight training. For wellness, a registered nurse staffs the Wellness Center Monday through Friday for confidential check-ups and advice, and therapy like physical, speech, or occupational care can be arranged. People can visit the art room, private theater, salon, or spa, with a menu of beauty services, and get help with their hair or nails without leaving home. Residents can play golf, enjoy the landscaped grounds, or take part in many cultural, social, and intellectual events, often run by fellow residents, and they can always use the Wi-Fi or common spaces to connect with neighbors or family.
Vi provides weekly housekeeping and laundry for linens and towels, scheduled maintenance and repairs, plus convenient services like 24-hour front desk staffing, valet parking, high-speed internet, and scheduled transportation for shopping, outings, and medical appointments. For dining, residents can choose between fine dining, casual spots, or a bistro, with seasonal menus and nightly specials from chefs who have won awards. Staff in nursing, housekeeping, and the front desk are also noted for being helpful and positive.
As a CCRC or Life Plan Community, Vi at La Jolla Village supports a range of needs. There's independent living, and on-site assisted living for those who need extra help, with studio and one-bedroom apartments and caregivers and nurses on-site 24/7. The Medicare-certified Care Center provides skilled nursing, short-term rehab, and long-term care, as well as a memory support unit with round-the-clock supervision and thoughtful spaces for residents with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia. The healthcare center has both private and semi-private beds, and residents needing extra support after surgery or major procedures can recover safely on-site. Residents can bring in their own home health aides if they wish more personal attention. Vi accepts private pay, Medicare, and some other insurance plans.
The community's management, Classic Residence Management Limited Partnership (dba Vi), offers contracts for units with several repayment options, including non-refundable and partially refundable entrance fees. The facility is for-profit and has been reviewed for licensing and compliance. Residents can enjoy the feeling of a resort, much like sailing on a cruise ship, with daily excursions, activities for all interests and abilities, good food, many services, and a staff noted by many for their quality and support. The goal is to help people stay busy, engaged, and comfortable, no matter what level of care they might need down the road.
