The Stratford is a special senior living community for many reasons but the foremost being the below. Many engaged and active residents from different backgrounds who are involved in continuing to make The Stratford a great place to live . The building itself was built to the highest standards and has stood the taste of time. The upkeep has been stellar and the size of the units are some of the largest in the Peninsula with many 2 and 3 bedrooms to choose from. The marble counters and floors, hardwood floors, Japanese screen art, live orchids, and many other touches make you think you are pulling up to a hotel. The team there is the heart and soul of the building and many folks have been there for over 20 years. They perform their jobs with compassion, authenticity, and create a familial like atmosphere. I cannot recommend it highly enough for those looking to purchase a condo in an engaged and active senior living community.
I have lived at the Stratford for 5 years and can say it is the loveliest senior/assisted living facility That I know of. The beauty and cleanliness are evident. The staff that maintain it are exceptional. The dinning room is another excellent beautifully appointed and managed feature. The apartments are larger than similar facilities in the area adding to its charm. All of these qualities managed to stay functional in spite of two years of COVID induced problems.The Stratford is also beautifully situated in central San Mateo making it convenient for residents to shop, bank and walk through the Central Park for restful days. The Stratford’s many activities are perfect for its friendly outgoing and active residents.
It has been a pleasure working with Amnes Vega at the Stratford in San Mateo. She has been very helpful in finding accommodations for our organization's monthly meetings in December 2024, May and August of 2025. I've been to other organization's meetings at The Stratford and noticed that they bent over backwards to make us welcome and provide a beautiful and especially delicious array of pastries, fruit, and drinks for the occasion. In addition, I find Amnes knowledge of the facility and amenities exceptional! Mary Lee Delehanty AbilityPath Auxiliary Hospitality chairperson
We have been residents of the Stratford for two years and really love it. The management and medical staff guided us through the COVID pandemic skillfully and safely. The availability of a 9 room intermediate level assisted living clinic is one of the main reasons we are here. Competent nursing staff is always available. The staff is friendly and helpful. The heated swimming pool and spa are a pure delight. Activities abound and the food, thanks to a resident food committee, is five star. It is the best place to retire!!!
