  • Don't move here!

    July 21, 2024
    Rent raises 10% every year.. which is around 250.00. Rats scatter around property day n night. The cops are always here Tiny pool and no gym, the resort style pool they advertise has been under construction since April of 2023. The entire entrance is coned off with construction its very difficult to pull in/ out of the entrance/exit. There is no social community between residents. I insist you walk around the the grounds yourself before signing a lease and being stuck here.

  • DO NOT LIVE HERE!!!

    November 6, 2023
    It’s loud, dirty, and the management hits you with max rent increases every year that are barely legal.

  • DONT MOVE HERE!! RENOVATIONS ALL THE TIME!

    April 13, 2021
    MISERABLE LIVING HERE! Renovations in multiple units in the building and no end in sight! It is absolutely impossible to get work done and to enjoy living here anymore! STAY FAR AWAY as management told me they will NOT stop construction!

      April 20, 2021
      Hello! Thank you for your feedback. We understand that the renovation causes noise disruptions, and we try our best to be transparent with residents who may be affected by noise with notices a few weeks before a renovation to a unit will begin, and our team is working as efficiently as they can to minimize any noise in a particular area as much as possible. We do value your feedback and we'd love to partner with you to help make you more comfortable. We welcome you to reach out to our team anytime!

  • Renter Beware!

    March 31, 2021
    Renovations going all ALL of the time! We never would have renewed our lease after living here for over a second we knew we’d be surrounded by construction site noises and demolition crews renovating apartments all over the community! It’s absolutely miserable to live here these days! We loved it before but now, it’s awful.

  • Bad Experience

    January 15, 2020
    I have been living in here for almost a year. I have heard negative things from the ex-residents but I didn’t agree with them until I got to experience myself. Over a month ago, an accident happened and a car hit to our bedroom exterior wall. Accidents happen and my husband and I were doing our bests to be cool about the situation. We have a giant compressed wood up on our bedroom wall. During December and January, letting the cold weather into our bedroom, no day light coming in whatsoever, ...
    and the worst one is after awhile I am experiencing severe allergies because of the board. I am constantly on allergy pills and have no energy to function during the day. But we were hanging in there because we have been told it will take a week or two to get the wall fixed. But it has been 5 weeks we are living like this! When we went to the office we were told the lady who is taking care of the situation is on her vacation. It was the first time I got a bit mad because I had to find a hotel for my guests whom I invited over to my house for Christmas before the accident happened, so I was suffering and waiting while everybody was continuing/enjoying their life. We waited and waited, the board is still up and my husband and I feel it is unfair that us to pay the same amount of rent we should be paying for a non damaged house, or we at least should be given another unit until this is fixed. We sent the management a mail and the answer we got is ‘The accident is not our fault so we don’t need to be comprehensive about the situation.’ This blew my mind!!! I don’t think I can express how upset I am and how unfair this is. And I want this to be heard.

      Hi there! Thanks for reviewing and sharing your thoughts with us. We are truly sorry that this accident happened to your unit. We agree with you and if we could have it our way, the repairs would have been done as soon as possible but working with multiple vendors and the insurance company from the accident increased the work order time. Our service manager Brian went to all his vendor contacts and partnered with the vendor who would be able to provide the window and frame replacement the soonest. We tried our best to have open lines of communication and apologize if there were any miscommunications along the way. Had it been just the glass from the window that was damaged, we would’ve been able to fix it in a week or two, but the damage to the frame and the drywall required a bigger repair with more necessary parts. We know the window was repaired this week and a follow up deep clean for your carpet is scheduled for tomorrow. Please let us know if any issues arise – we want to make ...
      sure everything is in working order and in great condition. Thank you again for sharing!

  • READ & SHARE: CAR VANDALISM & POOR SECURITY

    September 20, 2019
    My car has now been vandalized TWO times within a two-week span. The second incident, my car was severely keyed and a liquid substance was poured on my car that literally pulled the paint off. Worse yet, I notified management and their response was, "We are sorry that this happened to you." Even police officers have questioned why the complex has yet to invest in security cameras in the garage to help protect its residents. After speaking with management, it was made clear that they have NO ...
    intentions to further protect their residents through increased security such as security cameras - apparently they care more about their bottom line than the well-being and safety of their tenants.

      Thank you for your feedback. In the past five months, we have been made aware of three incidents in our parking garages involving vehicle vandalism or break-ins. While we’re not aware of any upward trends or increased activity in this regard, we did reach out to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department for additional information. Crime statistics for Aliso Viejo in general are very low -- in 2013, Aliso Viejo was named the 4th safest City in California. For more detailed information, you can use the interactive crime mapping tool found on the Orange County Sheriff’s Department’s website at https://www.crimemapping.com/map/ca/AlisoViejo. Because of feedback like yours, we have increased the Community patrol service in the garage structures and we are actively working with the Sheriff’s Department on the placement of cameras at the entrances/exits and pedestrian gates of the parking garages. Audio/video surveillance companies (like Ring or Nest) have products that may be helpful for ...
      individual residences. The Sheriff’s Department said that while security measures can serve as a deterrent, they don’t prevent crime. Unfortunately, no community is completely immune from criminal activity. Should you have any additional concerns, please reach out to us at 949.215.7368.

  • Rampant Theft

    February 19, 2019
    The apartment complex sounds nice at first glance but don't be mistaken by the positive reviews here. The courtyard style buildings magnify echoes and it's constantly loud. They don't care at all about theft in buildings and especially in the garage. The gate does nothing for security. They HAVE NO SECURITY and there are people who will follow residents into the garage and troll around the garage to steal from cars. Absolutely no cameras or accountability or desire to keep residents safe. ...
    Multiple car thefts in recent weeks but they won't make any changes.

      We appreciate you taking the time to give us your feedback. We understand your frustration and assure you that we take the safety of our residents seriously. While we work with local law enforcement, we also want to encourage our residents to not leave valuables in their car and use our secure parcel delivery system. Residents are encouraged to report crimes and suspicious activity to OCSD. If there is a danger to persons or property, call 911. Management reinforces the “See Something, Say Something” protocol. We also have courtesy patrol available nightly. Again, we would like to apologize as it appears your experience has not met our high standards we hold ourselves to. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us any time at the leasing office.

  • Great place if you never want to move!

    October 12, 2018
    Lived in my apartment for 2 years felt safe (I travel a lot for work) No kids, No animals and area rugs on most of the carpets. When I moved out they want to charge me to replace the carpet for pet stains. I do not have a pet! I have photos of the apartment on moving out and will now take them to court. Total BS, I recommended them to several friends and now I regret it. Just be careful to fully document everything when you move in you cannot trust them at all!

  • Do not recommend

    May 4, 2018
    Like many others, I was swayed by the beautiful pools and palm trees. I do not recommend living here if you enjoy quiet, functioning appliances, or parking near your home. PROS: -Beautiful pools x3 -Close to town center and movie theater -Cool local events at the park nearby CONS: -EXPENSIVE rent for very little return -The access gate is a joke, there is only one way in and the door is open all the time except for when it breaks and will not open. -No loading zones. There is nowhere to unload ...
    your car so you either have to risk it by parking at a red curb (which everyone does) or hoof it to your car with 5 bags of groceries. I see people with little kids struggling all the time trying to load/carry kids. -Parking is ridiculous. You get one designated spot per apartment and can't buy anymore. If you get home after 3 PM on the weekdays, you will park on the 3rd floor and up. After 7 PM and you're on the 4th or 5th floors. -All the appliances are old and break often. Fridge and laundry are not included in the apartment. -Apartments are not updated either in look or appliances. -They have food trucks and fitness classes every once in a while, but they don't usually communicate with anyone via email/Facebook/phone so nobody actually knows when they are. -Just tons of people all the time. Tons of entitled people who see no issue with almost running you over. -Parcel lockers - I thought this was cool at first, but it's actually really annoying because they give you anywhere from 3-7 days to pick it up (not sure why the range) before they charge you for storage. They also will say you have an oversized package (even if it's not oversized at all) and you have to pick it up. -Office staff- these people are idiots. Seriously, I don't know how they ever got jobs. They don't seem to understand basics like YOU MUST TELL ME BEFORE ENTERING MY APARTMENT. Overall, I would not recommend living here.
