  • Great community!

    November 12, 2024
    Never had any major problems here! some of the reviews are a little ridiculous considering this is apartment living! If you want better parking and other things buy a home! Apartment living does come with some complaints but this place has taken care of little things! The office staff is always helpful, and the property manager has personally came and check an issue I’ve had and made sure it was addressed properly! When we moved in everything was clean; and ready to go! No complaints!

    September 29, 2024
    I am almost 6 years here and the maintenance staff is wonderful. Miguel has been here many times over the years and goes above and beyond to complete any requested repairs. I always know they will be here for me and do a great job.

  • Wouldn't Move Here Again

    January 4, 2022
    Unless you want to have your packages stolen constantly don't move here. I just had a $200 textbook stolen from my porch and I have seen mail theft here first hand. The price you pay monthly to live here and not have your own parking spot is not worth it. I have a video of someone hitting my car and the car behind them trying to get out of a parking spot on the street, and that happens all the time. In the laundry room closest to our apartment we had 2 out of 4 washers broken for at least 3 ...
    months, and management did nothing about it. If prices in San Diego were affordable I would move literally almost anywhere else. Also, the walls are paper thing and I can hear *all* the activities our downstairs neighbors are engaged in. Do yourself a favor and don't move here.

  • Great Location

    July 16, 2021
    I moved into my new apartment at Coral Bay 2 weeks ago and I have really enjoyed my stay so far. The pool and gym are fantastic! The view of the canyon is beautiful and the location is amazing! I worked with Jayme during my application and move in process, I highly recommend her! Her professionalism and communication was excellent and she made my move easy and enjoyable !

  • Stay Away!!

    November 4, 2020
    Sit down for this! If you don't get any add ons like pet rent, a garage and a parking pass, it is very cheap, but it adds up quick. If budget is your priority and don't mind a hot, small apartment and plenty of noise. 1)Noise-I could hear my neighbor's alarm at 4 am through our shared bedroom wall. Sounds also echos very well from the street and units and you can hear people on the sidewalk and street as if they were in your apartment. So make sure your close your windows if you don't want to ...
    hear everything as loud. 2) Dishonest Staff- I was roped into signing the lease because I was promised an updated kitchen and new carpet. The one I was given intitally had stained carpet and smelled of cigarettes. The kitchen was not remodeled and the units here are for sure not up to code. Although their webiste lists A/C as a feature, the leasing agent that showed me my new place was surprised that it even was there and said they don't provide A/C at all. 3)Unprofessional- Leasing agents and management are not on the same page, like ever.I was also interrupted and treated very disrespectfully when trying to explain my situation or try to ask any questions. 4) Facilities- The door to the nearest laundry room to my unit had a broken door handle the entire time I was there. On multiple occasions, transient folks would use the facilities (I'm not mad at that, but for the price I paid here, I wasn't too thrilled. Also, there are 2 laundromats within a 10-minute walk in either direction) The "playground area" for kids was just an empty area with mulch. Other samples of how the actual unit was like: The heater in my unit never really turned off all the way, the summer is miserably hot (unit is a noticeably hotter than outside in the summer), the shower always leaked, toilet always ran, heavy condensation on the windows in the winter would leave puddles on the carpet and create mold. Parking is very difficult anytime after 4pm if parking on the street OR even if you have a parking pass. 5) Neighbors- Something is in the air here, I have never been surrounded by so many messy and loud people! Like I mentioned at the beginning, I have lived in a few different apartments around town, and this place was especially wild. Cops are always coming by, loud parties, domestic disputes, fighting dogs, and kids vandalizing public facilities.

  • So close to the water!

    August 4, 2020
    I moved into Coral Bay last month and worked with Lani. She found an upstairs two bedroom with a water view. I love being able to jog or bike to the water. My dog loves all the grassy areas and seeing the other dogs on the property.

  • Ready to leave

    July 10, 2020
    Since my first day here (mid March of 2020) I have had nothing but problems. The problems keep continuing and it just keeps getting worse. The ONLY reason they aren’t getting just one star, is because the maintenance team is so nice. They aren’t good, (I don’t think it’s their fault but the companies fault for being so cheap) but they are nice. I absolutely hate living here and if it wasn’t so expensive to break lease, I would leave ASAP. If they win you over with amenities and parking, laugh ...
    while walking out. We had to get a garage and it’s too far and impossible to get into with how crappy parking is here and they won’t move me closer without charging me more. There is never anywhere to park and sometimes have to park over half a mile away and you can’t use any of the things they talk about in their ad. Save yourself and find ANYWHERE else because I can assure you, it’d be better.

  • Apartments smaller than advetised

    March 28, 2020
    Warning apartments smaller than advertised!!! After having my girlfriend move in and bringing her stuff here from New Jersey I discovered the apartment felt a little small. I decided to measure and the 810 square foot apartment measures out to about 700 square feet, pretty unacceptable in my opinion, I have contacted the leasing department about it and they told me they would look into it. As of today they still falsely advertise the size of their apartments. I believe the one bedrooms are also ...
    incorrectly advertised. Please correct your ads and stop misleading people. Apartment was not terrible but by no means nice either. My apartment didn't have a thermostat for the heater and had a broken exhaust fan for cooking. When I asked about it I was just told that that's how it was and parts were not available for the exhaust fan. Lots of spiders! Leasing department is friendly but definitely needs some improvement. I got a call one day that they had received a package for me months after they had gotten it.

    March 9, 2020
    I have no choice but to leave a bad review, as I was mislead by management, and not told about the broken heater for the pool. It will not be fixed until May, so I will be paying for an amenity that I can't even use. I also asked if the complex is under any flight paths, and I was told 'no'. There are airplanes and loads of helicopters that fly right over the complex. With very thin walls and single pane windows, it is very loud when they fly over.
