What does Exclusive Raya's Paradise cost?
$5,350 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $4,400–$6,600. This home’s own rate is not on file. Ask: “What is the all-in monthly rate, and what would push it higher?”
Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 24 small homes and similar homes within 10 miles publish, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices. In testing, the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 homes. This home’s own rate is not on file.
Among 9 other homes of a similar licensed size in Los Angeles that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,375 to $8,250 a month, and the middle figure is $7,000 (n = 9 other homes publishing a starting rate).
Each of those is a home’s own published figure, gathered on its own date in September 2026 — not an average of ours, and not a survey. Similar size means small and mid-size homes counted together, and large communities counted on their own, because they are different markets.
A home outside the band is not overcharging or underpricing: a starting rate covers different things in different homes, which is the first thing to ask about.
The price is made in the phone call. Nothing here is a quote, an offer or a discount.
A starting rate is the room and the base care. California homes commonly bill care levels, medication management, supplies, transport and a second person in the room as extras. Many also charge a one-time fee at move-in. Ask for that list in writing before anything is signed.
Only prices a home put out itself count here: its own website, a listing it supplied, or a price a listing site says the home confirmed. Prices a site shows without saying where they came from are left out.
Does Exclusive Raya's Paradise take Medi-Cal?
On Medi-Cal’s Assisted Living Waiver: this home is not on the DHCS participation list dated September 23, 2026. Ask the program about current options. The waiver pays for care services, not room and board.
Who holds the license?
The license is held by Exclusive Raya's Paradise, Inc., per CDSS records as of September 13, 2026. See the homes licensed to Exclusive Raya's Paradise, Inc. — at least 4 on the state roster.
Is there a hospital nearby?
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center is 1.7 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

How people payPrivate pay, Medi-Cal waiver, SSI/SSP, veterans, insurance
- Private payMost residents pay from savings, a home sale or family help. Ask for the rate and what it includes in writing.
- Medi-Cal Assisted Living WaiverThis home is not on the DHCS participation list dated September 23, 2026. Ask the program about current options. The waiver pays for care services, not room and board.
- SSI/SSPCalifornia’s 2026 standard is $1,626.07 a month; $1,444.07 of it goes to the home and $182 stays with the resident. Whether this home accepts it is not on file — ask.
- VeteransVA Aid & Attendance can add to a veteran’s or surviving spouse’s pension. Ask whether residents here have used it.
- Long-term care insuranceMost policies pay for licensed care homes. Ask what paperwork the home provides for claims.
- MedicareDoes not pay for room and board in a care home. It can still cover hospice or home-health visits inside one.
Avoid surprises on the billWhat changes the price, and what to ask
- The care level
Some homes charge one all-inclusive rate. Others add levels or points as needs grow. Ask how the level is set, who decides, and what the next level costs.
- What is billed separately
Medication management, incontinence supplies, transportation and a second person in the room are often extra. Ask for the list in writing.
- Move-in costs
A one-time community fee or deposit is common. Ask what it covers and whether any of it comes back if the stay is short.
- Increases
California requires at least 90 days’ written notice, with reasons, before a rate rises (Health & Safety Code §1569.655). A change in the resident’s care level is the section’s own exception and can be billed sooner.
- What is the full monthly cost for the room and care we need, and what does it include?
- What would the next care level cost, and who decides when it changes?
- What is billed separately, and is there a one-time fee or deposit at move-in?
- Is any private-pay period required before another payment program can begin?
How this estimate worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing
Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 24 small homes and similar homes within 10 miles publish, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices. In testing, the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 homes. This home’s own rate is not on file.
24 homes like this within 10 miles publish starting rates mostly between $3,000–$8,000.
- Only prices a home put out itself count: its own website, a listing it supplied, or a price Seniorly says the home confirmed. Prices a listing site shows without saying where they came from are left out.
- Nearby homes are the nearest of the same size that publish a rate, widening from 3 to 40 miles until at least 8 do. The estimate starts from what they charge, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices.
- Room, care-level, second-person and move-in lines come from what California homes publish on listing sites. Memory care uses Covelight’s researched premium over assisted living.
- Totals add each line’s figure and combine the lines’ ranges as separate charges, because a home is rarely at the top, or the bottom, of every line at once.
- We tested this estimate on 1,546 California homes that publish their own starting rate. It was within 10% of the real rate for 3 in 10 homes and within 25% for 7 in 10; the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 (September 12, 2026).

Licensing Program Analyst (LPAs) Chris Alemoh and Michael Cava conducted a subsequent complaint visit to the facility to conclude the investigation regarding the above allegations. LPAs met with the administrator, Brian Rosales, and advised him of the complaints. Staff raped resident: In regards to the allegation, the 10 day visit was made by LPA Laqueena Lacey on 08/22/23. Complaint was also accepted by Investigations Branch (IB) Investigator, Juan Lozana, as an assignment. The investigation by both LPA and IB consisted of interviews, record review and a physical plant inspection. On 09/13/23, interviews held with the facility manager and staff do not corroborate with the allegation as no witnesses and dates of this incident could be identified. Interviews were also made with Resident 1 (R1) and Staff 1 (S1), and both deny the allegation. Furthermore, R1 stated the allegation is made up. Unsubstantiated On 09/18/23, IB made contact with the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) dispatch. According to dispatch, there were no calls generated to report that R1 had been raped. Based on the information obtained, there was insufficient evidence to prove that S1 raped R1. Therefore, the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time. Staff are having sexual intercourse during work hours: In regards to the allegation, it was alleged that staff were having sex during their shifts. The complaint received did not identify any staff, witnesses, dates or times. Interviews made with five (5) of five staff deny the allegation. Interview with one (1) of three residents also deny the allegation. The other two (2) residents were non-responsive to the LPA's questions, therefore, could not be interviewed. Based on the information obtained, there was insufficient evidence to corroborate the allegation of staff having sexual intercourse during work hours. Therefore, the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time. Facility air conditioning is in disrepair/Staff not providing a comfortable room temperature for residents: In regards to the allegation, it was reported that the facility air conditioning has been in disrepair for months, causing the residents to complain of the facility being too hot. It was also reported that administrator refuses to repair the air conditioning unit. Interviews with one (1) of three (3) residents deny the allegation. Resident 1 (R1) states room temperature is always maintained at a comfortable level, and expressed no complaints of the air conditioning being broken. The other two (2) residents were non-responsive to the LPA's questions, therefore, could not be interviewed. Interviews made with the administrator and maintenance staff reveal that the air conditioning unit was never in disrepair. Both stated the air conditioning unit just went under it's usual annual service for maintenance, but the air conditioning wasn't shut down for more than an hour or two. Maintenance was made in the morning to avoid the heat during the day. Air conditioning has been running alright since. During the day's investigation, the room temperature appeared to be maintained at a comfortable level. Based on the information obtained, there was insufficient evidence to corroborate the allegation of the air conditioning being in disrepair, causing room temperatures to be kept at an uncomfortable level. Therefore, the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time. Staff not keeping facility free from pests: In regards to the allegation, it was reported that the facility is infested with roaches in the living room and resident rooms. During the course of the investigation, LPAs Alemoh and Cava conducted an inspection of the physical plant, which included all five (5) bedrooms, and three and one half (3 1/2) bathroom, common areas, living room and dining room. No roaches were observed. Interview with one (1) of three (3) residents deny ever seeing any roaches. The other two (2) residents were non-responsive to the LPA's questions, therefore, could not be interviewed. Interviews with the administrator and staff also deny the allegation, stating they haven't received any resident complaints or concerns of having roaches. Furthermore, the administrator stated pest control provides service at least twice a month for preventive measures. Based on the information obtained, there was insufficient evidence to prove that staff is not keeping facility free from pests. Therefore, the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Oct 3, 2023 · control 31-AS-20230821171127

Life here
Rooms, meals, the rhythm of a day, faith and language, pets and house rules — as the home describes them. Tap any detail for its source and date; nothing here is graded.
The home has not described daily life anywhere we have reviewed yet — that is the case for most small homes, and it says nothing about the home. These questions fill in the picture; keep the ones that matter to you.
Before you call
Ask every home the same questions — the state’s record does not answer these. Keep the ones that matter and they travel with your saved homes.
- What is included in the monthly rate, and what costs extra?
- Who is awake overnight, and how do residents ask for help?
- Which rooms does the non-ambulatory approval cover, and what transfer support is provided?
- What could change whether someone can stay here?
- Can we see a bedroom and share a meal during a visit?
