Solista Salem

I can’t say enough good things about this independent living community! The staff consistently go above and beyond to make every resident feel valued and cared for. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with genuine warmth and professionalism. The customer service is truly exceptional any request, big or small, is handled quickly and without an attitude. They take the time to get to know each resident personally, which creates a welcoming, family-like atmosphere. It’s clear that exceeding expectations is their standard, not the exception. I highly recommend this community to anyone looking for a place that combines comfort, independence, and outstanding service.

I have been here since Nov. 30, 2023 and just love the people who I have had the pleasure of meeting. The staff are all very accommodating and helpful.

Our Aunt moved in four months ago. This was our families first time looking at retirement communities and we found Solista/Salem to be the most welcoming. And it has CHANGED HER LIFE!!!! She has gone from being almost a recluse to joining in with the many activities offered. She loves going to the dining room for meals (raves about the food, and she’s picky) and loves happy hour. (They often have top notch live entertainment). They have activities every day and field trips to all over. Her apartment is super large with a lovely deck for all her flower pots etc and she is able to sit out there year round. The staff is first class all the way. Lacey the director is an absolute treasure to deal with. Every promise made has been delivered and then some. Our family and Aunt highly recommends!!!!
