Understanding The Mari de Villa Difference

Mari de Villa distinguishes itself from typical retirement homes by offering a more holistic and multifaceted approach to senior living. While traditional retirement homes generally provide a space for seniors with some supportive services, Mari de Villa goes beyond this model. We provide a full suite of care options, including Skilled Nursing and Memory Care, designed to accommodate seniors in varying health conditions and levels of independence. The seamless continuity of care offered means residents can transition through different stages of health without leaving the comfort and familiarity of their community.

Moreover, we believe that vibrant living doesn’t stop with retirement. At Mari de Villa, we’re dedicated to promoting an active, enriched lifestyle for all our residents. Our array of amenities and activities far surpasses the standard offerings of retirement homes. From guest lectures and live concerts to salon services and therapeutic swimming pools, our residents are immersed in an environment designed for enjoyment and relaxation. With our high staff-to-resident ratio, we can ensure personalized, attentive care that makes each resident feel valued. In this way, Mari de Villa is more than a retirement home—it’s a thriving community where seniors can truly enjoy their golden years.

We are licensed for Skilled Nursing while still providing an assisted living environment. This allows us to provide the highest level of care but also tailoring around each individuals wishes and needs. This allows all of our guests to essentially “age in place”, which means that we are able to meet the same needs for our guests regardless of a guest condition change. We want our guests and families to know that we are setup to work around their needs, not the other way around.

Not only is Mari de Villa Family owned, but it is family operated too. We are all actively engaged on a daily basis with all of our guests, families and staff.

All-inclusive rates allow for our guests and families to plan financially.

License Examples

In Missouri, Assisted Living facilities are mandated by state regulations to maintain ‘adequate staffing’. The interpretation of ‘adequate’ can vary, so it’s crucial to assess each facility’s staffing levels for optimal care. Skilled nursing facilities, on the other hand, must adhere to a minimum staffing requirement. Specifically, during the day shift (7am to 3pm), there must be at least one personnel member for every 3-10 residents.

Take Mari de Villa as an example. With a resident census of 120, we employ 19 nursing staff members during the day shift. When considering our entire staff roster during this shift, the number rises to 41, surpassing even the strictest staff-to-resident ratio required by Missouri. Notably, Mari de Villa is licensed for 224 skilled residents. However, due to our commitment to private rooms, we reach our capacity with 130 residents.

Understanding what’s covered in care packages is also essential when comparing facilities. Assisted Living establishments are designed to assist residents, which means not every service may be included in the standard package, and certain items and services may incur extra charges.

In contrast, Mari de Villa takes an all-inclusive approach for guests in our Skilled Nursing program. Our senior living residents can enjoy a range of services— from care, meals, and transportation to wireless internet, cable television, and housekeeping— without worrying about additional charges.


We understand that selecting the right senior living community is a decision that carries great weight. We warmly invite you to come and experience Mari de Villa for yourself. Take a personalized tour of our senior living community in St. Louis, ask questions, and meet our compassionate staff.
