My 86 year old mom moved into Atria Willow Glen in May 2023. From our first visit, the staff was helpful, responsive, knowledgeable and incredibly supportive. The assisted living team is excellent. Care is great, staff is flexible, food is very good, and whenever I need help or counsel, I get immediate, experienced input. Atria Willow Glen is exactly where my mom needs to be and she’s safe and happy.... Read more

Looking at communities for my 92 year old grandfather and this was my favorite of all of the communities we visited. Everyone was super friendly, both the employees and residents. When we were there they had live music for the holidays, and residents were singing along which was quite nice. I can definitely see my grandfather being happy here.

We have been very fortunate to have found Atria Willow Glen for Mom. The staff is fantastic and since we live out of the area, it is really nice to know Mom is being well cared for by people who have now become family. Yes...the grounds are wonderful but it's the people who have made this a home. Thanks to the staff and adminstration of Atria Willow Glen for giving us such a nice place to have as a home for my Mother. :)

Our family had an in person tour with Atria Willow Glen and we really liked the staff but I didn't like the surrounding area. Family members would have to use street parking and when we were there we saw a lot of unhoused people doing drugs. I felt uneasy.
We picked this community, because of the relaxed atmosphere. Beautiful grounds separate housing. Caring staff and residents. I really found the right place for me, and it was the right decision. I would recommend to other families.

They are really good. There is no complaints about the food, and my loved one is eating healthier, is super happy, and seems to have adapted to the community. They have group games, movies, concerts on TV, and dancing. Every single person that I have encountered , knows her name and knows where she is at all times. I would recommend to other families.

Not sure I would rate any home a 5 overall. In general I've been quite happy with Atria Willow Glen and mom's experience. Excellent activities and a strong social community. Majority of the facility is independent living. Very nice garden and grounds.

We found a wonderful place for our mom, who lived in independent living, in her own little studio from when she was 90 to 97. What attracted her to Atria were the grounds and the individual buildings rather than a hotel type arrangement. She loved the koi pond, trees, well-maintained green spaces and the flower beds. She found the employees very kind and helpful, and so did I!

Atria Willow Glen is a highly recommended place for Seniors. The community is nestled in the Willow Glen area, it has a heated pool, very nice walk ways, well appointed apartments, near a Starbucks, USPS, restaurants, churches, etc. The most important thing about this community why we highly recommend it - is its staff, from the Care Staff, all the way to its Directors. They are very approachable, helpful and TRULY CARE about the community residents’ well being. It will give anyone a sense of belonging and peace of mind. Knowing that it is a community that one can actually THRIVE AND BELONG.

My team has been helping families move to Atria Willow Glen for over a decade and their staff is great and they do as much as they can to help their residents enjoy where they live. They always have fun events and we see family members come visit and have fun at these events. They have a Casino night where they bring in professional dealers and tables and it is always a blast!

Moving into an AtriaWG apartment, one year and a half ago, from a small home in Willow Glen, was a big life style change. With the help of A Place for Mom, I had been casually looking at various senior communities in the San Jose area. I was most impressed the first time I visited and have been glad that I made this choice ever since. All the staff, the sales director , the maintenance men, the Enhance Life committee, the cleaning ladies and the dining room people are very kind, considerate, friendly, helpful., and they work hard. There are many activities to choose from each day from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. There are lectures, exercise groups, musical entertainment, crafts and games. The Atria van provides transportation to the grocery store, banks, shopping centers, museums, parks, the coastal towns, and medical visits. There are festive celebrations on most holidays . Three meals a day are served in the dining room. I am quite satisfied with my decision to live at Atria

My loved one had a short stay here due to health issues. The community is beautiful and has a secure garden area for the residents to be in. If you can afford this community it is wonderful. The rooms are spacious. The staff truly care about the residents. I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones who are ready to move and is early on in their journey and can then transition here.
