Why we like it

Belmont Village Cardiff is a 175-bed assisted living and memory care community in Cardiff by the Sea, a charming coastal village within the city of Encinitas in North San Diego County. The community pairs Belmont Village's structured care programs with one of the most desirable coastal settings in Southern California.

The laid-back beach-town atmosphere distinguishes this location from other Belmont Village communities.

  • Coastal village setting

    Cardiff by the Sea is a relaxed beach community known for its surf culture, the San Elijo Lagoon nature reserve, and the Cardiff Seaside Market. The setting offers a genuine coastal lifestyle, not just proximity to the ocean.

  • Established memory care programming

    Belmont Village's Circle of Friends program provides structured cognitive engagement for residents with dementia, backed by research partnerships with leading universities.

  • North County San Diego convenience

    Located along the Coast Highway corridor with Encinitas, Solana Beach, and Del Mar nearby, the community is accessible for families throughout North San Diego County.

  • Below-average safety record

    Belmont Village Cardiff holds a 5.7 FYI Safety Score, reflecting a pattern of inspection findings that families should examine before making a commitment.

  • Coastal premium

    Cardiff by the Sea is one of San Diego County's most desirable neighborhoods, and the location carries a corresponding price premium compared to inland Belmont Village communities.
