"Very Bougie apartments, clean and comfortable. Valeria Cruz was a great help and made things easy. ???"
"I don't live in these apartments but was so upset visiting my daughter that I had to write a review. The positives about the apartment is the apartment itself is nice. The views are absolutely beautiful. However, that's where it ends. I'm handicapped and there's no handicapped parking. 1 spot for the entire side of the complex she's on which was occupied the entire 9 days I was there by a vehicle with no handicapped plate or placard. She's on the 3rd floor so it was already rough. The outside landscaping is a mess. The smell of dog poop and pee is so strong I couldn't even enjoy her balcony. When it rained it was 10xs worse. It was so strong. We are an Earthing family. My daughters and myself have always walked in the grass every morning barefoot to start the day and to relieve mental stress. We couldn't do that in any area on this entire property. My daughter expressed her unhappiness with nit being able to walk in the grass or sit and read a book in the grass It has actually caused her mental distress. The entire property was/is covered in dog poop. It's sad because it has the potential up be so beautiful and serene. The garbage dumpsters were overflowing all over the ground. Atleast 40 garbage bags on the ground around dumpsters at every site. The dog area has so many fleas. They were covering our shoes. The dog washing station they say they have has never had running water. She had to ask me to keep her emotional support dog in Florida because she was constantly getting infested with fleas and was being exposed to other dogs feces that it was unhealthy for her to stay. This property is considered luxury but it's not kept luxury. I just couldn't believe it. Definitely poor management and a lack of discipline with tenants. I was just sad for my daughter. She lives alone and should be able to enjoy outside. It may not be my place to write this review but I had to let others know, and management to take more responsibility for the upkeep of what they are selling as luxury apartments."
"I moved here August 2024 and I love the staff! Sweetie and Karli are super helpful and are willing to assist whenever an issue arises. I love/hate with my unit. 2br/bth modern amenities (granite counter tops, vanity mirrors, carpeted bedrooms, first floor apartments (most) and fenced small yards for pets & kids) and mostly quiet neighborhood."
"This is my little slice of Heaven hidden away. Karli helped me with the move in process. She is absolutely the best! She is very helpful, informative, and fast in response. This apartment is so beautiful, it is kept clean, and it is quiet. I highly highly recommend moving here! You will not regret it!"
"First moved into these apartments around April 2023-ish. At first, my boyfriend and I loved during our tour, but upon moving in, it was bit of a nightmare - it still is now. When we moved in, the office had a completely different move in date from what we are provided so we moved into an apartment with the carpets still dirty and roach infestation. I was pretty upset, but the manager was very prompt with a solution: we moved into a first floor apartment and our rent for the third floor was honored. That was great -- other than that, everything else is extremely bad. Only gave two stars because I do like the leasing assistant, Karli and the manager Paula. They're pretty fast at responding and nice. But the apartment complex itself is a no.
1) Parking is absolutely ridiculous. It went from reserved parking (which takes up a good portion of convenient free spaces already) and first come first serve spots to converting almost half the first come first serve spots to visitor spots AND having to register your car. Only one permit is allowed per one leaseholder, so if you have 2 cars, you pay an EXTRA $25 a month for the extra permit. I find it deplorable for apartment complexes to charge their tenants even more money for parking at a place they literally LIVE at. If you work late, you're most likely having to walk FAR if you live on the opposite side (ex: if you live in building 4 or 3, you'll have to park by building 7 or 8 and walk across to get home. Why.) It's annoying.
2) They have a limited income restriction rental program. Want to upgrade to a 2 bedroom? You can't because of the program. You must qualify or else, you're stuck.
3) Dog poop is literally everywhere and they don't maintain the landscape. There are some apartments where you can literally smell dog pee and poop festering in this heat and it is so gross. Walk around the complex and you'll see lawns unkempt, grass is gone, and you see only dirt.
4) FREQUENT power outages!!! Beware!!! I understand a hurricane taking out the power, I'm not unreasonable, but just the other day the power went out for a few hours for no reason. I mean I'm not a electrician, but I experienced a lot of power outages during my lease here. Maybe it's because the apartments are nestled near the wooded areas or something, idk.
We submitted our early termination - we thought we could live another 6 months here, but we decided we weren't going to waste money somewhere we're not happy at. There's apartments with more amenities, better parking, and better landscaping. I advise those looking for apartments to keep looking, unless you can overlook the negatives."
