  • Deceitful management

    June 12, 2024
    Very unorganized. If you have questions, do not expect the office to provide you with any useful information. I went out of my way to get my carpets cleaned in order to have my security deposit returned. I told the office manager that the bathtubs were old and peeling. She assured me that they would not hold this against me. After moving out of my apartment they changed me the whole security deposit in bath tub cleaning fees. This misinformation is a common theme from this apartment complex. I'm ...
    very disappointed in this complex and I would not recommend.

  • Do not move here. Management is a Joke.

    December 12, 2021
    All they want to do is take your money for every little thing they can possibly find to charge you for. Management is extremely unprofessional and they will tell you whatever you want to hear to get your signature and your money. The office never answers the phone and half the time the office is open- no one is there. OH- and there's ROACHES.

      Thank you for your review. We are so sorry that you have not had an amazing experience. Pest control is on our site every week and we are happy to treat your issue weekly until it is under control. This is a very busy site and we will be adding a whole new person to handle the heavy amount of clients who are looking to move in Sarasota.

  • ROACHES!!!

    September 29, 2021
    I have lived here for 2 months and have had an exterminator come twice, and they’ve done nothing but put a bandaid on the situation instead of fixing it. They’re under my fridge and living in our counter. I’ve put my own money into buying traps that are actually effective and have spent my time researching on how to get rid of them, because I’m tired of living in fear. I just got home from working a double shift and all I want to do is get ready for bed, then I find a roach on my toilet. The ...
    complex is beautiful on the outside, but make sure you know what you’re getting into when you move in.
