The Hacienda at
Mission San Luis Rey
Oceanside, California
8-Acres
Winner of the 2024 SAGE Award for Best 55+ CCRC Community, The Hacienda was built adjacent to the historical Mission San Luis Rey in Oceanside. The community includes Independent Living, Assisted Living and Memory Care making up 210 total units. As part of a historical site, existing oak trees had to be safely relocated within the mission, while California pepper trees were integrated or removed and replaced. Designs for three separate courtyards were created along with open space for active living while tying in the historical mission connection. To promote health and wellness, the community was designed with a looping path around the perimeter connecting to pocket seating, a vegetable garden, a prayer garden and two pickleball courts. A dedicated entrance connects the community to the mission’s historical courtyard. The independent courtyard offers residence a lap pool and mulit-use lawn area.
