Still Family-Owned After Five Decades
A Half-Century in Arcadia
In a field now dominated by large chains, Arcadia Gardens stands out as one of the few communities in the area that is still family owned and operated. It has cared for seniors for more than 50 years, and its owner has described it as a place built to care for older adults as if they were family.
A Team That Tends to Stay
That sense of continuity carries over to the staff. Some team members have worked here for more than 20 years, an unusually long tenure in senior care and something longtime residents often mention. The community has also earned local recognition, including a BusinessRate "Best of 2026" award for assisted living in Arcadia.
Care That Can Change With a Resident
Because several levels of care sit under one roof, a resident can often stay in place as needs shift, instead of moving somewhere new each time.
Independent and Assisted Living
The community supports independent living for seniors who are still active, and assisted living for those who need a hand with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, grooming, or managing medications.
Memory Care
For residents living with Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia, Arcadia Gardens offers memory care geared toward safety and routine.
Hospice and Respite
Hospice care allows a resident to stay in familiar surroundings near the end of life, and short-term respite stays are available for families who need care for a limited time.
Doctor Visits at Home
Everyday medical needs are handled through a resident's own doctors, and care can also come to the resident rather than the other way around: through the Doctor2me network, families can find a physician who visits the home instead of requiring a trip to the hospital.
A Community That Feels More Like a Resort
At 200 residents, Arcadia Gardens has the space and amenities of a full community rather than a small care home.
Suites and Private Spaces
Residents live in spacious one- and two-bedroom suites, many with custom kitchenettes and private balconies.
Grounds and Common Areas
The grounds are a genuine draw, with landscaped courtyards built around a waterfall, plus a pool and jacuzzi for warm Southern California days.
Dining and On-Site Services
Meals are served restaurant-style in a banquet room, and the community keeps an on-site beauty and barber shop, 24-hour emergency staffing, and scheduled transportation. It is also pet-friendly, welcoming cats and dogs.
Built Around an Active Calendar
Ask residents what sets Arcadia Gardens apart and the answer is usually the calendar.
Games and Daily Fun
There is something happening most days, with games six days a week, including Bingo, dominoes, Mexican Train, and Kings in the Corner.
Music, Dances, and Seasonal Events
Live music and performers are a regular feature, the month often ends with a dance in the penthouse, and summers bring gatherings by the pool. For an older adult who would rather be in the middle of things than sitting quietly, that pace is often the deciding factor.
Licensing and Oversight
As a licensed California senior community, Arcadia Gardens is subject to state residential care rules covering staffing, fire safety, and accessibility. Its current license status and any inspection records are held by the California Department of Social Services and can be checked directly before a visit.
