About The Esplanade

History and modern living seamlessly intersect at The Esplanade apartments in beautiful downtown San Jose, CA. Our community is truly unique. On our grounds, you’ll find a 1900s cannery building which now houses our studio and loft apartments, designed with modern style and accented with historic charm. Adjacent to these, explore our contemporary one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments for rent, including spacious townhome-style and loft residences. Inside each home, you’ll discover sleek finishes, ample storage space, and an in-unit washer. Just outside, enjoy your own private patio or balcony space. Around our community, experience the many amenities that The Esplanade has to offer. Gather with friends and neighbors at the barbecue and picnic area, hang out in the clubhouse, or relax in our pool or spa. You can also hit the gym any time you like at our community fitness center. As you venture outside our grounds, you will discover an array of delectable food and finely crafted drinks at The Market in San Pedro Square and one-of-a-kind shops and boutiques in historic Japantown. Plus, with some of the area’s best schools, parks, and entertainment options nearby, you’ll find everything you need is close to home. When you choose to explore farther, you’ll be perfectly positioned to access the rest of the incredible Bay Area. Highways 101, 87, 280, and 880 are all minutes from your door, or you can catch the VTA Light Rail or the Caltrain, and the San Jose International Airport is also just minutes away.

Crazy Move-out costs
February 17, 2023
This place will charge you more than market rate at renewal (and admit it) and charge you thousands in move-out fees even if you didn't cause any damage. Don't rent here.
Review from Apartments.com

Robbery on moveout
February 11, 2023
I originally liked this apartment and although their rarely were employees on site we were planning to stay until they jacked up our rent above market rate. I was apolled to find, after we only lived there one year and had taken care of the place with utmost care, they charged us for every possible thing on move out. I am completely shocked. The place was not perfect when we moved in, band although we highlighted those flaws and spet the better part of a weekend cleaning after we had already ...
moved out, they charged US over 1600$ to replace floor that was in bad condition when we moved in and repaint the place. I've never felt more robbed in my life. Do not live here if you don't want an unreasonable bill when you move out.

Great Community!
August 19, 2015
I just graduated, got a full time job, and was looking forward to moving out of downtown San Jose. The Esplanade Apartments are right on the outskirts of dtsj, in Japantown. They are close enough for downtown to be accessible, but far enough that it feels safe. I moved into a 2br/2ba where one bedroom is downstairs and the other is upstairs. It is great that my roommate and I are sharing the apartment, but still have our separate spaces. The living room area has nearly floor to ceiling windows ...
that really brighten up that space. The complex has 2 pools, a gym, and a lounge area. I've been here for about a month and have had a great experience so far! Plus the leasing staff is great!

Love Where You Live
July 28, 2015
I LOVE where I live! My complex is located in the area of San Jose, CA known as "Japantown". The cherry blossoms in the spring on Jackson Street are amazing! Downtown San Jose is within walking distance and just a few blocks away great shopping and restaurants as well. Although this is a wonderful and safe neighborhood and the complex has all the amenities that you could ask for, it's not the reason I love where I live - it's the staff. From the grounds/maintenance staff to the office ...
management staff - I have never lived anywhere else where I was always greeted by name and always with a smile. The staff makes a point of getting to know everyone, and that means more to me than two pools, a doggie park, fitness room, computer center, and basketball court. Whenever a need arises the staff are on it immediately and everything is always handled in a professional manner. Anyone would love to live here at the Esplanade - Love where you live, I do!
