The Kensington Redondo Beach

Our family commends the entire Kensington staff for providing a wonderful home for our dad! Good food, wine, live music and daily exercise are a must for dad. Kensington definitely meets those needs! Dad requires frequent assistance. When he calls for help, a caregiver or nurse is in his room within five minutes or less. Not only are they quick to respond, but dad consistently tells us they show kindness, patience and compassion. Our family also observes that when any staff member interacts with other residents. Kensington strongly encourages family and friends to visit and dine with their loved ones. We greatly appreciate that because sometimes it is difficult for dad to leave the facility. Directors and other staff members always make our dad's family and friends feel welcome. Thank you, Kensington!

Our Mom moved into Assisted Living at the Kensington 2 1/2 years ago because it became too difficult for her to manage alone at home. We couldn't be happier with our choice! The staff is incredibly attentive to every detail. For example, they bring her a cup of her beloved coffee without being asked at the daily(!) musical happy hour. They evaluate Mom regularly and keep us informed of changes. We can easily consult with the responsive on-site nursing or physical therapy staff if we have any questions. They are kind, caring and supportive and look after Mom like family, because they know her so well. They welcome us like family too! We often schedule to join Mom for a meal when we visit. The food is excellent with a new menu daily, though as vegetarians/pescatarians, we'd love a few more options ;) . They are good about accommodating special requests, though. Mom is out of her room a lot – there are people to see and things to do. She's found her "crew" whom she eats with daily, which means we no longer worry about her being lonely. The environment is immaculate and tasteful, with indoor and outdoor public areas that are a pleasure to hang out in. I would recommend the Kensington without hesitation.

Moved my dad to Kensington Redondo in August after 4 years at Oakmont Torrance. What a step up! The people are great. Turnover is low, so they know their jobs and their residents. And seem to actually care about the residents. Food is also a huge improvement versus Oakmont, as is the entire dining experience. And daily “Happy Hour” is a real plus - something the residents really seem to enjoy and look forward to. It is more expensive, but it’s worth it. I no longer feel like we are “nickel-and-dimed” as I did at Oakmont.

My parent(s) were/are at this great Sr. Living facility. I say this because my father passed there but mom is still a resident. The care that the staff embodied to my parents was/is incredible. Everyone is so personable and knows their job. The dining facility and food preparation is out of this world. The special events for the residents and their family is second to none. There is no detailed spared. Additionally, they have medical staff on site which is very comforting for families. I would highly recommend Kensington RB to anyone looking to place their loved one.

After extensive research on assisted living facilities in the area, we settled on the Kensington. It’s now been three months since my mother moved in and we couldn’t be more satisfied. The staff is caring, attentive and accommodative. The food is excellent. The grounds are pleasant and well maintained. And there are plenty of activities to keep residents engaged and socialized. It’s a well-run organization that has exceeded our expectations.
