  The current management is abysmal at best. Brandon has driven this place into the ground. It sucks because otherwise this has been a great place to live. Urgent repairs to the common areas like the security gate, parking gate and washer/dryers get put on the back burner for pointless projects like repainting a curb or changing out doors or "upgrading" our fitness rooms & conference rooms. They shut down some rooms for over a year just for some basic "renovations." Management used to have our external windows cleaned regularly (since we can't hop on a ladder and clean them ourselves), sidewalks pressure washed (again, since we can't do it ourselves bc there isn't really access to an outdoor water source/garden hose) and garden areas on point. I've seen trash stains on the ground and stairs that stayed there for over a year. Windows have dirt and bird droppings until the rain comes. Never had rats in the common area until Brandon started running the show. The guy is too busy setting up a half-baked automobile log to harass residents about towing their cars if they haven't checked every single vehicle with him like he's the DMV. I will say the maintenance crew is top tier and does get stuff done for you when you request it. The neighborhood is great. Great grocery stores. Awesome eats. Ample street parking. As long as you have low expectations for management you'll like living here. I keep to myself and keep my apt clean and put in repair requests as needed. Enjoy the area, avoid dealing w management and ignore the issues to the complex and you'll be fine.

  I fell in love with Casa De Marina at first sight. The leasing office has been incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, special shoutout to Shireen and Brandon for their support! I can’t wait to start living here.

  Luis is great! He always does an excellent job and figures out a way to fix things. The 5 star review is for Luis. I would like to take this opportunity to indicate my dissatisfaction with the Laundry facilities. By far the worse managed laundry room I have seen in my life and this is the case for many years (I've been here almost 10). So, any prospective renters beware as this issue will not be addressed and is getting worse.

  Luis fulfilled two of our requests today. Our constantly flushing toilet, and adding a hanger pole inside our laundry closet. He performed both work assignments quickly and accurately, and was very respectful. Definitely job well done!

  This is the worst managed apartment building that I have ever lived in. First of all, the maintenance crew will not help with the simplest of things such as lighting the pilot light for the gas heater. Apparently for "legal purposes" this is something that the gas company is responsible for. The gas company will do it for free, but there is a waiting list of 4 weeks. Meantime, we have to sleep in a freezing apartment. What the maintenance crew is allowed to do is use loud leaf blowers for cleaning. There are 4 buildings here, next to each other, sharing a parking lot. Thus, there is noise from the leaf blower that echoes around for over an hour while the cleaning is in progress. This is done several times a week. It may look like the building is new, but apparently under the skin of it, it's actually quite old because on weekly basis, we have water shutoff to do pluming work. No joke - on average at least every other week there is a day when there is no water. I work from home and having no water is quite a hassle (can't flush the toilet, wash hands, etc.). By the way, I read the bad reviews of this place 12 months ago, before moving in, thinking that by the time we move it, all of the fixes will be over. So it's been a year yet it's rare to have a week go by without some sort of a notice of ether having no water, or having to move the car out of the parking space dew to some repairs, or something of that nature. Another problem with this apartment complex is that the parking lot is right outside of the bedroom windows. Thus, in the morning, you'd hear every single car being driven out as people are leaving for work. So yes, you'd be waken up much sooner in the morning that you'd like. I don't think I have ever written such a negative review about any experience, but I do hope someone saves themselves the trouble by reading this one. UPDATE: I wrote this review a when I first moved into the apartment. Ever since then the management changed, the staff changed, etc. In fact, I'd say that the last year of living there (I have moved since), the place has gotten quite a bit better. So I am adding a couple of extra "stars".
