Ocean Villas

I have lived in this complex for over 2 years and love it! The owners did a great job of renovating both the interior and exterior. The kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances and granite, and I have beautiful hardwood floors. The bedroom and living area are larger than you would find in the typical apartment. I personally have not had plumbing issues or any concerns with hot water. Although you do have to pay for laundry, the machines are new and reliable. The courtyard is a great place to congregate with neighbors and grill or sit by the fire. Because it's a relatively small property, there is a great sense of community. If you're looking for a great place to live, I would recommend Ocean Villas!

I lived here for a little over a year and experienced several issues! First day there and we our garbage disposal AND shower backed up and clogged (we hadn't used them) and had to have a plumber come out. The plumber informed us that the owners were spending a lot of time on making the place look nice, but did nothing with the plumbing. Which was apparent since I spent a year having to run the bathroom sink, the kitchen sink, AND the shower for about 5-7 minutes before getting hot water. After 5 months of renovations (which I was promised would be a month top) the outside was great! Too bad the window hardware was rusted and did NOT hold on the screens, the walls were awful, and my garage would leak and pool when it rained or the neighbor watered her plants (not at all her fault!). When I say the walls are awful I mean that even our towel rack (as well as neighbors) fell off the plaster walls 3 times!!! Each time it was usually a 2 week period start to finish to have them patch, remount, and incorrectly paint the wall. On top of the crappy walls the latex paint just PEELS off the wall I used MASKING tape to help center a painting and pulling that off peeled the paint away! Laundry is a joke. It works about 70% of the time and you share two washer and dryer with all 16 units! After cornering the owner I was able to get them to make rolls of quarters available, but you have to get the from a neighbor which can be in convenient. The only positive this place has going for it is that the neighbors are all very friendly, the maintenance man is very professional, and the location. Management slapped lipstick on a pig and wants you to take it to the dance. You can do better!!!
