I've had a wonderful experience so far. Its quiet in the morning to meditate. There is a gym on-site. We've used the fireplace. The pools are clean and there are enough chairs for residents to use. There is a very precious landscape of nature with a variety of trees, and wonderful grass areas to read a book or have lunch out. Villa Sierra also has several picnic areas with view over the city. Plus, it is a pet-friendly place, so the whole family is welcomed. The entire place is nested on the mountain side.
