    Review

    Villa St. Francis is a hidden gem, tucked away in a beautifully located facility. Set against the backdrop of great views of the Hudson River, this place offers peace and quiet for those seeking tranquility. Its close proximity to the church makes it even more valuable for religious Catholics.

    The staff at Villa St. Francis is not only friendly but also genuinely caring towards the residents. This level of compassion adds to the immaculate atmosphere that pervades throughout the facility. Every effort is made to ensure that residents feel comfortable and well taken care of.

    The rooms are spacious and well-appointed, although some may find it lacking a stove. However, this slight inconvenience is overshadowed by the fact that every floor has its own living room and kitchen, creating a communal space where residents can socialize and interact with one another.

    One standout feature of Villa St. Francis is its dining room. Unlike traditional nursing homes where people are waited on, here residents have the opportunity to serve themselves from a variety of options including a great, big salad bar. This freedom fosters a sense of independence and reduces dependency on others.

    While there may be a small number of residents on the senior living side, some individuals might view this as an advantage rather than a limitation. With fewer people around, there may be less noise and more opportunities for personal attention from staff members.

    Overall, Villa St. Francis is highly recommended by visitors who have experienced its beauty firsthand. It's not your typical nursing home; rather it feels like a home away from home with its gorgeous surroundings and comfortable accommodations.

    So if you're looking for an excellent place that offers both serenity and top-notch care, Villa St. Francis should definitely be at the top of your list. With its hidden gem status, this facility offers an opportunity to enjoy life's simpler pleasures while being well-taken care of by dedicated staff members who go above and beyond for their residents' wellbeing.
