Reviews of Santa Fe Terrace/Santa Fe Place are predominantly positive, highlighting a clean, attractive, welcoming community with spacious apartments, a secure layout, a central courtyard, and opportunities for walking and outdoor enjoyment. Families appreciate being able to furnish and decorate residents’ rooms with personal belongings, and some mention that small pets are permitted. The location in Plainview allows residents to remain near lifelong friends and family. Staff are frequently described as friendly, caring, professional, attentive, and supportive. Several reviewers say employees treat residents like family, communicate well with relatives, and provide individualized assistance with bathing, medications, meals, hygiene, and daily activities. One family expressed deep gratitude for the compassionate care provided to their parents at the end of their lives. Another resident said the community feels like family and wished they had moved there sooner. Residents reportedly benefit from varied activities, including crafts, bingo, movies, church services, family nights, outings, brunches, and special events such as Fourth of July fireworks. Reviewers also praise the dining areas and, in several comments, describe the food as homemade or offering good variety. Rooms and common areas are generally considered clean, bright, comfortable, and well maintained. However, food quality receives mixed feedback, with one reviewer rating the facility highly overall but saying the food needs improvement. More serious concerns include a complaint that scheduled incontinence checks were not occurring, resulting in inadequate personal care. Another reviewer described declining nursing care, poor food, and high costs, contrasting current services unfavorably with previous management. One family ultimately chose not to move a loved one due to declining strength, despite liking the facility. Overall, most reviewers recommend Santa Fe for assisted living, though care consistency and food quality warrant attention.
