A great place

Earlier this year, my wife passed away. we had a large house and I am a social person and didn’t want to stay there. I also ended up in the hospital for almost three weeks and was unable to return home. Since my house was in Bixby Knolls, one of my daughters found Bixby Towers and walked in a signed me up for an assisted living room. I had no idea what it would be like, other than visiting my sister in the Bay Area in a senior living facility. The last time I was in communal living was 65 years ago in the Air Force. From the moment I walked into my room, I felt that this was a place for which I was destined. The staff here, from the bottom to the top, are both friendly and caring. We all kid around, but most of them do their jobs with a smile. It can be very stressful for them but they don’t pass that on to the residents. I have made many friends here and the activities directors do a great job as well. I am happy to be in a place like the Towers.

The street, Atlantic Ave, is great, but Bixby Towers is not.

Atlantic Ave is great, with loads of restaurants and watering holes. Sadly, Bixby Towers is not. The food is terrible with few exceptions. The rooms are wonderful, with a full kitchen and a big bathroom. The wifi is constantly up then down. The air conditioning seldom works and I bought a portable to keep the temperature stable. Overall, the building is old and poorly maintained. The bus is old and the wheelchair lift does not work and they have no plans to repair it. In a word, Bixby Towers sucks.

Nice facility. Clean. The room I looked at was nice. Pricing seemed fair. Concerned with the elevators. What be if there’s a fire? How do tenants get down? Very little parking available for visitors.

Bay Towers at Bixby Knolls

A lot of things to improve on: - their elevator seems like it's dying - friendliness of the staff towards residents...they seem to pick and choose whoever they want to be nice to - responsiveness to the needs of residents. My sister did not have a shower for weeks. Her air conditioning knocks but never fixed. They keep dodging the issues. - variety and good servings of food. When my sister was there, they were stingy on food If there was an emergency, how are they going to get 14 floors of senior residents out? How do they even pass the fire department's safety inspection? The marketing people are nice, tho. But it's their job to be nice. The receptionist on regular days? Nope.

Great Value, Amazing Staff, but facility needs some TL

The entire staff from the administration to the assisted-living care providers have been absolutely fantastic. The only issue we've experienced is that my father's room had some paint and flooring that needed to be repaired and still has not been completed. Food taste is average but provides all that my dad requires.

Improvements needed

The admin changed about a year ago and the care has gone down. For instance, they haven't had hot water since [date removed]. I don't know if the new admin will bring up the care or not. But, it isn't a par right now. They should do more mobility activities like chair yoga and light weight training.

Review for Bay Towers at Bixby Knolls

Very friendly residents and staff. My mother has a one-bedroom apartment and is pleased with the layout and closet space. It's not a plush facility but very livable and affordable for what's provided. Can attend activities in both assisted & independent living.

The building is located conveniently to a lot of places. The interior is nice and bright which is nice for low vision residents. The apartments are newly renovated with flooring and appliances. My biggest concern is with staffing. There isn’t a marketing person available on weekends and I kind of had trouble getting an initial tour. The person who helped me suddenly was gone and no one contacted me to let me know who I would be working with.

Wonderful experience at Bay Towers

My mom moved to Bay Towers in August 2024. She has adjusted well to her apartment in the Independent Living building. The staff are wonderful and friendly and the food is delicious. She calls Bay Towers her new home. She appreciates the daily activities and being able to socialize with many nice people. Bay Towers has exceeded my expectations and my mom is very happy!!

Disappointed in Pacifica

Bixby Towers used to be a great place to live. We have had family members reside there over the last 15 years. I have witnessed the dramatic decline in amenities and lack of customer service regarding repairs since Pacifica has purchased the property. The environment is unhealthy at times with regard to temperature regulation. There is no air when it's hot or heat when it's cold. The building is old and has been under construction for the last two years. This has been a nuisance to the tenants, it would be nice to be compensated for the inconvenience of it all. The elevators are unreliable as well as ground transportation. It is sad to me to have to deal with all of the above.

friend's experience at bad Bay Towers at Bixby Knolls

My friend lives in the independent living tower here and tells me that the elevators stop functioning often, new ones are promised by management, but never are installed. Heating has ceased in several apartments, the whole tenth floor at one time in the very recent past. Space heaters are provided, but do not adequately heat living spaces. Additional television channels have been promised after the public station KOCE was arbitrarily removed. The standard reply from management is that they are "waiting for a part". The "part" never comes. Also, an elderly black resident was told she could not enter the dining room with her motorized wheel chair when other walkers and manual wheelchairs are permitted. Said tenant has moved elsewhere. Been told others are planning that, too. Me, I would not live here. Been told Pacifica has a bad rating with Better Business Bureau.

Great Facility and Staff. Worth the Value!

The Facility is old and the Staff is young in comparison. They both express their curiosity and service to prospective patients!

Tips for evaluating your community options.

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the California regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about California regulations for Assisted Living.
