I've had the pleasure of having both of my parents stay here. My dad has since passed and my mom is enjoying her stay at Celebration. I love how the staff treats my mom like she is family. She has met a lot of lovely residents while staying at Celebration. The best thing for me is, I no longer have to worry if she is eating or taking her meds right. It is a beautiful property and I highly recommend it. Thanks Celebration Villas.

We needed a short-term respite stay for my Dad while my Mom was in the hospital. He wasn’t too keen on the idea initially, but John Imler went out of his way to be helpful & once Dad got settled he said everything was fine. Dad’s ultimate test, the food, passed with flying colors!

Celebration Villa of Altoona is a family oriented dwelling for your loved one. Regardless how busy the staff is with giving care to the residents they always have time to stop and speak with the residents or their families. Management and staff work well together to keep our residents clean, comfortable and well adjusted to their surroundings and activities. The family is a very important link to making residents adjust and feel comfortable with his/her surroundings. No matter what goes on at Celebration Villa of Altoona, the residents and their well being is the most important aspect of joining us as a resident.

Celebration Villa is by far the closest to HOME I have found for my mother. The care, knowledge of residents, and activities that the staff promote are exceptional. I looked at several other facilities before I found Celebration Villa and that’s exactly what they were, “Facilities” not HOME. I am so at ease knowing that my mom is at home there and being cared for by what I believe to be friends not just staff.
