  • Awesome place...

    August 18, 2022
    Right next to Mission Trails Park this Vela apartment complex has it all. We love to hike and bike in the park in the early am. We saw this place being built and when we finally were able to take a tour, my wife and I just loved all that Vela had to offer. A very sweet on site dog run with shaded cabana seating and doggie fountain, plus our very own garage and killer pool were just the start. The place has a brand new exercise room looking onto an open lounge, BBQ, dining deck with pool beyond. ...
    We wanted a place with more of a cozy village feel with many pathways and landscaping rather than one of those massive single building complexes we kept seeing. I hit up the very well laid out clubhouse and sometimes just relax by the fireplace for a quiet read or a little tv time. These Vela Apartments are freeway close to everything... SR52, SR125, SR67, SR8 and SR163 are all at your doorstep. I grab a complimentary coffee each am and just love the choice we made.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on scale of 1 (below average) and to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider needs as part of the school selection process.
