1000 Cottonwood Ln, South Windsor, CT 06074, United States
My mother moved up from Long Island NY into Alto Senior Living just over 1 month ago to be closer to her family in South Windsor. She absolutely LOVES everything about this community! Her apartment has exactly what she needs. Its a new community, only a few years old. The apartments are well lit, safe and very spacious and also have amenities included, including laundry, housekeeping,maintenance, cable, internet. All the meals are prepared fresh in the restaurant and are delicious! We often have meals together here and the menu is so diverse and made to order. Daily specials and a great kitchen and dining staff. Our teenage kids love visiting grandma and getting to eat at the restaurants here too. The options for activities here are endless. From art sessions to daily happy hours and fire pits, to movies and cards, and can't forget about bus trips to events around Connecticut, mom is more busy now than she has been in a long while. The in house salon is exactly what she was looking for to get her hair and nails done whenever she desires. She calls her new home "Bougie sleep away camp for seniors." She has connected with and made many new friends in just the short time she has been a resident here. I can't leave out the amazing nursing care and assistance that is given to mom at Alto. She gets all the attention she requires for her daily needs from a dedicated and caring and knowledgeable nursing staff that assists her with all of her medications and really listens to her needs and concerns....plus any help is always a button push away.The physical therapy/occupational therapy department has to be commended for their incredible work as well. We looked at several local assisted living communities and the choice was easy once we found Alto.

My Mom was in assisted living at Harbor Chase before she passed. The care services that she received were exceptional. The nurses and aides treated her with respect and attentive to her needs. The hospitality staff was so friendly and the meals were good. My Mom especially loved getting her hair done at the salon. Her hairdresser, Debbie, was like one of her best friends. They really enjoyed each other's company. And she always loved her hairstyle. Thank you all for making her feel so special. Our family will be forever grateful to you all.
My mother -in-law is a Resident in the Cove section of Harbor Chase which is their memory care facility. I have to say that after having experienced five different memory care facilities for my own mother who has recently passed away I am very very impressed with Harbor Chase. The food is excellent, the floor staff as I call them who do the day-to-day chores of taking care of the residents is nearly flawless. The executive staff is very friendly and efficient. Everyone I have interacted with has been more than kind and patient. The facility itself is exceptional and is decorated with warm inviting colors and artwork. I have known my mother-in-law since I was 12 and I couldn’t feel any better about where she is under the circumstances. If I had to start over for my own mother this is where she would be. I really do give them high praise and after interviewing eight other local memory care facilities this one tops the list in all areas.
My mother and two of her sisters live at Harbor Chase currently. The staff there have been caring, sweet and absolutely wonderful with my family. My mother may not know any of the names of the staff members, but she certainly knows how they make her feel… you can tell by the way she lights up when she sees them or laughs and kids with them that she is well cared for and loved. Every time I’m there, she shows me around and honest to God she should be recorded as she gives me the tour! She tells me how nice everyone is, how beautiful her room is, how good the food is… the list goes on. Reading some of the negative reviews that have been left, I will say this… Harbor Chase opened during a pandemic which transformed our workforce. There isn’t a company that hasn’t had difficulties getting help and Harbor Chase seemed to struggle at the beginning too. But things have leveled out, growing pains seem to be easing and I have not seen my mother smile & laugh this much in many years.
Kristi and HarborChase staff worked with great care and diligence to enable a quick move-in to Assisted Living for us. This special attention to our family’s needs helped us greatly in relieving anxiety about the safety of our loved ones. Our family is delighted with the beautiful surroundings, excellent food, and caring staff. In a short time, we have already seen improvements (eating, resting, smiling) for our beloved parents—who really deserve the best. We look forward to ongoing quality of life improvements for them in a safe, caring, beautiful setting.
