Granvida Senior Living and Memory Care is an 83-bed assisted living and memory care community in Carpinteria, Santa Barbara County, California. It’s operated by RBP Carpinteria Op LLC and Mallard Senior Mgmt, LLC under administrator Nithi Narasappa. Licensed by the California Department of Social Services as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly in July 2023, the community serves residents who need assisted living and dedicated memory care support.

As a California RCFE, the facility is inspected by the Department of Social Services, not CMS, so no federal star rating applies.

No fines or serious findings are recorded through the latest inspection in February 2026, which puts the overall inspection score at 83 out of 100 against California’s benchmark of 70.

For families who require short-term coverage, respite stays are offered. The community provides its core assisted living and memory care programs, chef-prepared meals, and outdoor spaces.

With a clean regulatory record since opening, Granvida Senior Living and Memory Care fits older adults in Santa Barbara County wanting assisted living or memory care in a newer community.
