They are caring, kind folks who really do their best. There is a daytime nurse who oversees the care. She runs a tight ship and creates an incredibly strong team. The facility is nice, clean and smells good. The meal choices are varied and delicious. I'd highly recommend this assisted-living facility to anyone who has a need for it.

Pretty delicious here. The burgers are delicious as well. I really love this place for my family member as i know she's in a beautiful place. She was able to bring her own personal furniture so that she feels at home. They have a library and TV room, game room, entertainment here as well. I highly recommend this business for friends and family.

Chef is awesome! Order off menu daily. The previous place you order a week ahead and it didn't make sense. Nice to order what you may feel like that day! My mom says she's on a cruise without the water! Beautiful place with lovely and caring people that work there! Communication has been beyond my expectations. GM Sherry is an inspiring soul and Erin has handled my mothers move with great professionalism! I couldn't be happier.. I hope they can hold up these expectations they set from day 1. if house keeping does a great job, This is a 10+ so far.. You won't be disappointed!

Stunned at the disregard for patient safety. I would not send my parents to this location. I work…read morein patient transport and although I can look past the rude interactions with certain staff members, I'm in awe of the sketchy circumstances they create in order to push out patients to where they insist on transporting; regardless of patients' wellbeing. It's been too many times that I've encountered this to not speak up and warn potential families.

When looking into any facility that is portraying the service of care always look at the most…read moreminute things like, is the floor dirty, are there stains on the walls? Etc. That said if the facility cannot keep up with those basic items of maintenance, how would you expect them to care for someone whom you Love and hold near and dear to your heart. Upon review I've come to know that this place provides sincere care and what that means is the "certified nurse assistants" whom hustle and bustle up and down those halls to answer call lights, feed, change, read to their patients and so much more is what makes this facility worth writing about. It's not the registered nurses, or the dietician's or the LVN's those people you'll find sitting behind a desk somewhere hiding out I can only imagine because their lazy. The CNA's are what make Royal Crest the best! Get to know them for they will be the ones whom are providing that 24-hour around the clock care that will be issued to your loved ones they are the unspoken of heros in this place so before committing always do your due diligence and check this place out.

The first time was…read morewhenI was in graduate school working with a partner on an assignment to interview a retired missionary who lived there As we visited, I was si impressed that I thought "too bad its for Presbyterian ministers and missionaries because I would LOVE to have a place like this to live when I'm elderly." The little homes and streets are so charming, there are many shade trees and nice places to walk, as well as many activities and a convenient amenities. , which is the main reason I hope to s p end my " golden" years there. It is no longer run by the Presbyterians and is open to all. I have attended interesring events there and hope to move there within the next few years. They have fruit trees. A small fitness center, pickleball court, swimming pool, guest housing, assisted living and memory care if needed, though most residents are independent, active seniors. There is a nice community feel in the place

Young Mario (Manager) is a complete idiot, I received mistreatment and bad attention from him, and I even asked for support with a couple of things for the proper functioning of my apartment and he dared to charge me for the parts. (nothing like old Dennis) This boy forgets that he is dealing with older adults, so disrespectful and his team always shouting bad words and rudeness along with him. The facilities are decayed and forgotten, the cleaning lady just walks around and everything is always very dirty. Be careful with this guy (Manager) who just likes to squeeze money out of tennants as he can.

Need to update my review. You may notice some reviews from Gary M…read more I am so upset that someone is saying that Huntington Oaks Village is unsafe. That is totally untrue. We do have a guard, Mohamed, a very kind young man. He is there to ensure our safety and has ALWAYS BEEN PROFESSIONAL when I have met him walking around. This complex has always looked out for our safety. Be it enforcement of no drinking outside the fence on the wall, no drinking by the pool, or no smoking of anything on the complex. Smokers are allowed to smoke outside the complex, more than 30 feet from the fence. Additionally camera's have been installed to make sure we are safe. I have never seen anyone nor have I heard of anyone threatening Gary's Mother, who happens to be a very sweet woman. Also, the accusations being thrown out are complete unfounded. There are no Drug Dealers, mafia knee cap breakers, or enforcers. The Staff is nothing but professional. Efren and Romi are the nicest people you have ever met. The disparaging comments about Efren, Romi, and Mohamed are untrue and outright mean and racially biased. Tchia, Marsha, and Antionette are always available. There are times the office is extremely busy, but they do their best to help everyone. This is a community of seniors 55 years and older. We have coffee and donuts every Saturday, Super Bowl Parties, Christmas Parties to name a few. The Club House is open for socialization and bonding. It is scary getting older and not having socialization. But we watch out for one and another. If someone goes to the hospital, we jump in to care for their pet. If someone isn't seen for a few days, we check on them. This is how a community works, how it use to work back in the 50s, how it needs to work now. If I fall, I know that my neighbor will be there to help me. It saddens me that one person has a personal vendetta against the staff who are always kind and helpful to all.

In fact, almost every spot in here has a fantastic view be it the 1st floor with the tropical "forest" setting or a view of the mountains and white/red housing which defines life in California. Some of the many pluses: 1)Security Gate-For those parked outside (1 spot per car within the gates), you have people in the two park area's watching. 2)Pool and Jacuzzi 3)Centralized Air - Digital (gets cool quickly)-Living with a single A/C unit in the house was never ideal) 4)Clubhouse events-Movie Nights, Game Nights, Cooking classes, pool table, library where you can take out books. 5)Close to the Walking trail (approx about 5 miles in length from starting point to end). 6)Maintenance responds quickly with anything that would be an emergency. 7)Short drive to the Duarte Library, Tennis, Park for picnics (which is on the trail but also parking spots there). 8)Clubhouse has two BBQ's plenty of chairs, tables, umbrellas, and lounges. 9)Relatively safe neighborhood, and beautiful Palms everywhere, it has become my safe haven when I come home from work, very nice. 10)Mailboxes, I know this sounds dumb, of course there are mailboxes, but I had lived in a house where I had to walk around the block to get my mail, and the mailbox was missing the flag so I had to drive to the post office to send my mail out. 11)Each Apt home gets a chair or two, great for laying out and getting in the fresh air that comes in from the mountains. 12)Very friendly staff and residents living here. 13)Laundry Facilities-24/7 14)We have our own Traffic Light :-).
