SCHEDULE TO

     This Amendment No. 3 to Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “Amended Statement”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (the “Initial Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 21, 2004, by ARVP II Acquisition, L.P., a California limited partnership (the “Purchaser”), Atria Senior Living Group, Inc. (“Atria”) and ARV Assisted Living, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ARV,” and together with Atria and the Purchaser, the “Filing Persons”), as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 to the Initial Statement on Schedule TO filed by the Filing Persons with the SEC on March 4, 2004 and Amendment No. 2 to the Initial Statement on Schedule TO filed by the Filing Persons with the SEC on March 26, 2004 (the “Amendments”, together with the Initial Statement, the “Statement”). ARV, which is wholly-owned by Atria, is the general partner of the Purchaser. This Amended Statement is being filed in connection with the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement filed with the SEC on March 26, 2004 by the Filing Persons (the “Offer to Purchase”). Because the Offer to Purchase is also serving as a consent solicitation statement by the Purchaser, it has also been filed as part of the proxy statement filed with the SEC on March 26, 2004 on Schedule 14A by the Filing Persons. This Amended Statement relates to the contemplated offer (the “Offer”) by the Purchaser for all of the outstanding limited partnership units of American Retirement Villas Properties II, a California limited partnership. Because the transactions contemplated by the Offer to Purchase would be a Rule 13e-3 transaction, this Amended Statement is also being filed on the date hereof in compliance with that rule.

     In accordance with the rules of the SEC, the Filing Persons are amending and supplementing the Statement as set forth below. The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase (including all schedules and annexes thereto) is hereby incorporated by reference herein in answer to the items of this Amended Statement. All capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Offer to Purchase, unless otherwise defined herein.

ITEMS 1, 4 and 11

     Items 1, 4 and 11 of the Statement are amended and supplemented by adding the following thereto:

     “The offer period of the Offer, which was scheduled to expire at 12:00 a.m., Eastern time, on Wednesday, May 5, 2004, has been extended to 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on Friday, May 14, 2004, unless the Offer is further extended. In addition, the Filing Persons have reserved the right to provide for a supplemental offering period to the Offer in accordance with Rule 14d-11 of the Exchange Act. Furthermore, the date of the fairness hearing to be held with respect to the Merger before the California Commissioner of Corporations has been postponed until May 19, 2004. On May 5, 2004, the Filing Persons issued a press release and sent a letter to Unitholders describing the foregoing and sent a notice to Unitholders announcing the postponement of the fairness hearing.

     A copy of the press release issued by the Filing Persons on May 5, 2004 is filed herewith as Exhibit (a)(1)(H) and is incorporated herein by reference.

     A copy of the letter sent by the Purchaser to Unitholders on May 5, 2004 is filed herewith as Exhibit (a)(1)(I) and is incorporated herein by reference.

     A copy of the notice sent by the Purchaser to Unitholders on May 5, 2004 is filed herewith as Exhibit (a)(5)(A) and is incorporated herein by reference.”

                   ARVP II ACQUISITION, L.P. EXTENDS OFFER FOR
                    AMERICAN RETIREMENT VILLAS PROPERTIES II
                    -- AT PURCHASE PRICE OF $300 PER UNIT --
                               UNTIL MAY 14, 2004

COSTA MESA, C.A. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - May 5, 2004 - ARVP II Acquisition, L.P.
(the "Purchaser") announced today that it has extended the expiration date of
its offer to purchase all of the limited partnership units (other than units
owned by ARV Assisted Living, Inc. or its affiliates) of American Retirement
Villas Properties II, a California limited partnership (the "Partnership"), and
the related consent solicitation to 11:59 p.m. Eastern time, on May 14, 2004,
unless further extended (the "Expiration Date"). The offer and the related
consent solicitation are each being made pursuant to the Purchaser's Offer to
Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement, dated March 24, 2004 (the "Offer to
Purchase"). If the offer and consent solicitation are further extended, the
Purchaser will issue a press release no later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern time, on
the next business day after the day on which the offer and consent solicitation
were previously scheduled to expire.

The Purchaser also announced today that pursuant to Rule 14d-11 of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and
subject to the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, the Purchaser has
the right, but not the obligation, to elect to provide for a subsequent offering
period, immediately following the Expiration Date. An explanation of the way a
subsequent offering period would operate, if offered, is being mailed to
unitholders.

The Purchaser has offered to purchase all the units (other than units held by
ARV Assisted Living, Inc. or its affiliates) for a purchase price of $300 per
unit in cash, less the amount of any cash distributions made or declared with
respect to the units on or after March 24, 2004, in accordance with the terms of
the Offer to Purchase. The related consent solicitation would allow the
Purchaser to effect a merger pursuant to which each unit (other than units held
by ARV Assisted Living, Inc. or its affiliates) not validly tendered in the
offer or withdrawn would be converted into the right to receive $300, as more
fully described in the Offer to Purchase. ARV Assisted Living, Inc., the general
partner of the Partnership, directly or indirectly wholly-owns the Purchaser,
and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Atria Senior Living Group, Inc. ARV Assisted
Living, Inc. also owns approximately 52.5% of the limited partnership units of
the Partnership.

As of May 4, 2004, approximately 4,418 units, or approximately 26% of all
outstanding units (other than units held by ARV Assisted Living, Inc. or its
affiliates) had been validly tendered and not withdrawn. Approximately 95% of
the unitholders who have voted on the proposal to effect the merger to date have
consented to the terms of the merger.

Unitholders who wish to receive the $300 per unit offer price must complete the
Agreement of Assignment and Transfer previously sent to unitholders in
accordance with the Offer to Purchase and deliver it to the Purchaser's
information agent to the attention of American Retirement Villas Properties II,

to Purchase and deliver them to the same address listed above on or before 11:59

other documents disseminated to unitholders should contact ACS Securities
