Why we like it

Almavia of Camarillo is a 100-bed assisted living community in Camarillo, a quiet city in Ventura County known for its pleasant climate and suburban character. The community offers assisted living in a mid-sized setting that balances personal attention with the resources of a larger operation.

Camarillo's location between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara provides a calmer alternative to big-city living.

  • Solid safety record

    A mostly clean inspection record: 3 serious and 2 minor citations across 12 state inspections, with 2 verified complaints. Nothing here stands out as a red flag, though it's still worth asking how any past issues were resolved.

  • Dual U.S. News recognition

    Awarded both Best Assisted Living and High Performing 'Feels Like Home' by U.S. News & World Reports in 2025 — two separate designations in the same cycle.

  • Dedicated Spiritual Care Director on staff

    A named staff role — not a volunteer program — covering religious services, meditation, and one-on-one guidance across all belief systems.

  • Nonprofit with century-long lineage

    Operated by Elder Care Alliance, a nonprofit affiliated with Transforming Age. The organization traces its roots to 1872 through sister community Mercy Retirement and Care Center.

  • Memory care on the same campus

    Both assisted living and memory care are available here. Couples at different care levels, or residents anticipating a future transition, can stay within the same community.

  • Waitlist currently closed

    The facility's own website states its waitlist is closed. Contact directly to ask about the anticipated timeline before planning around this community.

  • Memory care pricing is separate

    The published starting rate applies to assisted living. The website explicitly notes memory care pricing 'may differ' — get a separate quote if that level of care is a possibility.

  • 100-bed scale

    At full capacity this is one of Camarillo's larger communities. Families preferring a smaller setting should ask about wing sizes and staffing ratios on a tour.
