My mom fell in love with the Waterford at Shavano Park. We have reserved her an apartment and are working on getting her there. The staff was so nice and friendly. The facility is welcoming, clean and smells nice (a big thing for me) and inviting. The residents we saw seemed very happy, joyful, comfortable and were nice.

Our family's experience

The experience was great and [name removed] was very very good. However, technology [name removed] it's ugly head and the fax machine wasn't working, but the staff was unaware so we kept trying to fax mom's medical records and the two different entities in Alpine Texas said that it was a constant busy signal. This caused a lot of unnecessary stress as Waterford didn't realize that the fax machine wasn't working until the day before the paperwork was due for mom. What made me choose Waterford was all the activities and also there were none of the hidden fees. I realize that levels of care can vary from place to place. However Waterford was very clear about the cost and it still great value for the offerings there. The food I can't really speak about as that would be more mom. However, we were told that the kitchen is a scratch kitchen and there's no frozen food which is another reason why I liked it for mom. I hope it's remaining the same. At that point in life food becomes very important. So good food and nutritional food is key. All the staff we've encountered have been very friendly and helpful. I was impressed with the cleanliness of the place and the availability of help. Also, the medical staff was very good and caring.

Tender Loving Care

The ratio of resident in the Memory Care units to caregiver is excellent. All needs are attended to quickly and efficiently with care and respect for the resident. Meal portions are balanced without being overwhelming. The rooms are well appointed and are sized to accommodate personal touches and furnishings.

Our family's experience

The staff is very friendly, attentive and caring. The facility is very clean. Room size and location is ideal for ma's needs. Meals are good. Lots of opportunity for socialization and activities. She seems to be very happy and we are relieved to know she is well cared for. Monthly price is high, but well worth it, especially since I've been able to secure additional funding for her through the VA.

Very nice facility, very nice staff. This was our last tour after touring several other facilities. I guess you can say the best was saved for last. We came in at the right time and were able to acquire the perfect accommodation, Which will make a huge difference for the transition. The staff has been very accommodating and that means so much! Great location for us also! Highly recommend!

What a difference

We recently moved in and have enjoyed the staff, facility and residents. Im thrilled to have found such a caring place for my mother. The food is great! The staff are amazing and have gone out of their way to make this transition seamless for my mother and myself. It is such a relief to find a place you can trust to care for your loved one.

Peace of mind

5 on all. Only glitch was elevator not working which delayed move-in. The staff are extremely caring and attentive. The facility is very clean and inviting. Wish it cost less, but it's well worth it. Mother-in-law is very happy and thriving. Would highly recommend it to other families. This move was my mother-in- law's biggest fear and husband's biggest regret; but it was the best thing for all of us.

I recently toured this assisted living facility and was very impressed. The location is excellent—convenient, peaceful, and beautifully maintained. The staff stood out the most; everyone I met was warm, professional, and genuinely caring. They took the time to answer all my questions and made me feel very welcome. The overall atmosphere was positive and inviting, and it’s clear that the residents are well cared for and happy.
