Benchmark at Alexandria

My husband was given the red carpet treatment when he met with Zeeshan (director) to tour Benchmark and talk about assisted living for his mother. As many know, this can be a challenging time for families as we work through choosing a place that will best meet our loved ones needs. Zeeshan took the time and care to hear about my mother in law and what they could do to support her in this next chapter. Touring Benchmark with Ashley (another director who is passionate about her work and so supportive) and seeing how beautiful the place is really helped us finalize our decision along with meeting the incredible staff. My husband wants his mom to experience first class service in this new chapter and from what we have observed thus far, this is happening. Thank you, Zeeshan and all the staff members we have been fortunate enough to meet since my mother in law moved in.

I recently toured Benchmark at Alexandria, and I was truly impressed by every aspect of this community. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and cared for. The atmosphere is warm, uplifting, and designed to feel like home — while offering the highest level of support for residents and their families. A special thank you to Ashley, who guided my tour with such kindness, professionalism, and genuine compassion. She took the time to answer all of my questions and provided a thorough look at the community’s assisted living, memory care, and respite care offerings. It’s clear she deeply cares about the residents and takes pride in helping families find the right fit for their loved ones. The apartments and common areas are beautifully maintained, bright, and thoughtfully designed for comfort and safety. I was also impressed by the variety of engaging activities, wellness programs, and dining options that promote a vibrant and fulfilling lifestyle. Whether for assisted living, memory care, or short-term respite care, Benchmark at Alexandria offers dignity, respect, and personalized attention every step of the way. If you are searching for a compassionate, well-run community in the Alexandria area, I highly recommend visiting Benchmark at Alexandria. Thank you to Ashley and the entire team for such a positive and memorable experience.

We truly enjoyed, and more importantly, benefited from our meeting with Mr. Zeeshan Javed, Director of Community Relations at Benchmark. First, he understood our situation, my wife and I, and internalized it in his explanations and tour highlights--with respect to needs and (relaxed) time constraints. We were very comfortable and felt no pressure all through the visit. All our questions were answered. We met lovely staff along the way, including Sunny the nurse and Shamika the Chef. We truly enjoyed discussing the unique flexible features of a potential stay at Benchmark. As well as its "structural" advantages such as being (still) a Founder-owned company, ensuring support and smooth transition through various stages of ageing, and of course Benchmark's location in a cosmopolitan, multigenerational setting. We will definitely keep The Landing in mind.

I live nearby and watched Benchmark at Alexandria being built, so I recently stopped in to see the inside and I was pleasantly surprised! The rooms are spacious, the multiple dining spaces are inviting, and the rooftop is absolutely beautiful. It truly feels like a place where someone could comfortably age in place. I’m now seriously considering asking my mom to move closer and live here.
