Nestled in beautiful South Palm Desert, this new property provides comfort and community in a luxurious setting where every detail is thoughtfully crafted. Amber House empowers residents to live happy, healthy, and vibrant lives surrounded by beauty, with skilled caregivers providing the highest level of care.

After living in his and my mother’s home till the age of 99, my newly widowed father moved into Amber House. Even before we arrived, he, my siblings, and I were warmly embraced by Joanne and the entire staff. On his first evening there they fixed his favorite foods and helped make him as comfortable and safe as possible. They welcomed his friends as well as us, and encouraged Dad’s many interests, which was so important for someone who had been so active for so long. The Amber House team organized activities and communicated regularly with our family, as we all live out of state. Throughout his time there, he was treated with love, respect, kindness, and incredible attention to detail. It is hard to fully articulate how much we appreciate all they did for Dad and how comforted we were knowing that he was in a beautiful, comfortable, and compassionate environment. I’d give them seven stars on a scale of five.
From the moment I walked into Amber House and met Joanne (owner), I knew that my mom was moving into a very special place where she would be surrounded by joy, beautiful accommodations, creative entertainment/activities and most importantly, loving and attentive care. Joanne and her husband, Jamie have created an environment of life and celebration in their pristine home. The caregivers are tenured, engaged, dedicated and care so much for each resident, of which there are only 6 total. Their love for each person is palpable and it’s clear that everyone working at Amber House is there for their compassion for others. My mom was the first resident at Amber House and spent her last 15 months of life there. I can’t imagine a better place for her every need to be met. Since my young family and I live in Northern California, I didn’t have the ability to pop in on Mom regularly. I was so appreciative that Joanne and her team always kept me informed of Mom’s notable changes as her “Parkinson’s-adjacent” disease progressed to its advanced stages; keeping me informed of what they were doing to make sure she stayed safe and properly cared for. While I was with mom in her final weeks, I was even more assured that Amber House was a gift to our family, especially Mom. Everyone there has become an important part of our family, and we are forever grateful for their love and care for Mom. If you are looking for a place for your loved one to not only be cared for, but respected and celebrated for the exceptional human being they’ve been their WHOLE life, Amber House is the place for you. They see and honor your loved one for all that they’ve been in this life, before they’ve needed extra help in their final years. Their achievements will be shared, their stories will be told, their favorite foods will be made, their birthdays will be planned according to their wishes, their favorite games will be stocked. Your loved ones will live in Amber House with dignity and respect, and they will thrive. You can trust the staff to keep your loved one as active as possible, stimulate them with fun and unique activities, provide exercise classes, take them safely on field trips with their 8-person, seat-belted golf cart, (they took mom and the gang to the Living Desert where they got to feed the giraffes), provide live entertainment on the outdoor patio, celebrate the holidays with festive decorations and activities, the list goes on and on. This place is like no other. If you’ve gotten this far, you’ve probably already put your deposit down. Good for you…you’ve made the right choice! From the bottom of my heart and soul, I extend my most sincere thanks and gratitude to everyone at Amber House! This is certainly not goodbye.
Amber House was such a blessing! Joanne and her whole team welcomed our father into the home with open arms, did their best to make him comfortable, and provided the dignity and attention one requires in the final chapter of life.
Amber House fills a void in the marketplace in terms of end-of-life care. There is a gap between the giant assisted living facilities and the end-stage nursing homes that, in our opinion, leaves too many families without good options in terms of elder care. Amber House fills this gap by offering high-touch services in a boutique property. We highly recommend Amber House to anyone searching for quality of care with a personal touch!
If you are searching for the perfect place for you or your loved ones, Amber House is the best possible choice you can make. This comes from experience. We had our Dad in other places before he came to Amber House and nothing compared to to level of caring and kindness! The staff and the owner Joanne and her husband Jamie, really care and go out of their way to make the residents feel cared for. You can’t go wrong here!!
