Kensington Reston is an exceptional community that stands out among long-term care options. I could talk about how beautiful, clean, and welcoming the facility is, but what truly sets it apart is the compassionate care and staff dedication. The team here has had remarkably low turnover since its grand opening four years ago—a rarity in an industry known for burnout. That stability is invaluable to residents, who find comfort in familiar, caring faces. Every staff member I’ve interacted with has been both professional and deeply committed to the well-being of residents. The leadership is outstanding, and the mission of caring for seniors runs deep throughout the entire team. My mom arrived at Kensington Reston after an acute hospital stay. At first, we thought a large skilled nursing facility might be our only option, but Kensington was able to accommodate her recovery, offering far more recovery support than most places. If you’re beginning your research, be cautious—many well-known national chains promise a “full continuum of care” during sales meetings, only for that support to disappear when it’s truly needed. Kensington, however, genuinely provides a higher level of care, adapting to residents’ changing needs rather than forcing abrupt transitions. When my mom arrived, she was a shadow of her former self. After just a few weeks, the color returned to her face, and we saw incredible improvements in her physical health—progress I doubt we would have seen in skilled nursing or elsewhere. The atmosphere at Kensington Reston is also special. It feels more intimate than larger assisted living facilities, and the residents seem genuinely happy. New residents are quickly welcomed into the community, making the transition easier for both them and their families. I also want to highlight Kensington Reston’s exceptional dementia care. They offer two levels of memory care, but before that, they have a smaller group program for assisted living residents experiencing early to moderate cognitive changes. This creates a thoughtful three-step approach, allowing residents to transition more smoothly as their needs evolve. Dementia is a progressive disease, and Kensington provides not just care, but also guidance for families navigating its challenges. Importantly, dementia awareness extends beyond the Memory Care floors—everyone at Kensington Reston seems attuned to the unique needs of residents with cognitive changes. I also greatly appreciate their support groups, educational programs, and events for families. I cannot say enough positive things about Kensington Reston or the Kensington brand. I encourage anyone considering senior care to look into the founders’ story—it speaks to their deep expertise and mission-driven approach. Kensington Reston is a model of what senior care should be.

My father has been a resident of The Kensington- Reston since December of last year. My family and I are so very thankful for the excellent care he is receiving. He is a very low key sweet man that deserves the best care in his later years. He is very happy living at the Kensington- Reston.

Yes, Kensington is beautiful and the benefits match. But anybody can stage a property and take nice photos. Yes, they say they will care for your family as they do their own. But anybody can pump out great phrases that give you hope. Pretty photos and pretty words don't tell the story. My 90 year old father had spent a week in the hospital and experienced significant cognitive changes. In an effort to get him a safe discharge, I wanted to take the opportunity to get him into respite care with the hopes of transitioning him fully to a residence that could give him the support he needed. He happened to visit Kensington (one of several visits to different facilities) the day before his hospitalization so we began a 60 day respite stay. From day one, the staff at Kensington treated him with such grace and empathy and were supportive and available to me. My father can be a really difficult person, but age and medical conditions exacerbated the difficulties and made him combative, exit seeking, and inappropriate at times.. Kensington medical staff worked to get the right combination of medications to try to ease the symptoms of his dementia and anxiety while keeping me well informed of his medical, mental, and emotional state. No changes were ever made without notifying me, they were fantastic with communication. Despite the temporary status, he wasn't treated as a ‘hotel’ guest and I truly felt that they cared about his well-being. He had another hospitalization due to a seizure and transferred to a rehab facility but staff at Kensington checked in with me regularly. More impressive though, is when I would come to the property a few times to grab some of his things… Even the nursing staff asked how he was doing with such genuine kindness and asked me to tell him that they hope to see him soon. That meant a lot. I'm so appreciative of their help throughout this really complicated period, I don't think this review does much justice to just how much they did. Monica, Jackie, Shavonne, Amy, Anne, Heather, and Buh… it has been a real pleasure.

My first visit and was totally impressed with the facility and the personnel. The building was warm and quite spacious. The staff were very attentive and friendly. My friend who is new to living at the Kensington has nothing but good words to say about the food and care.
