The Breakers on the Lake

Great place to live! Fantastic location very welcoming. With lots of amenities for great value could not be any happier with what I got for a great price.

The Breakers is a fantastic location & management makes the living experience *chefs kiss* . They are attentive and the property has many amenities.

Great place to live. Location and staff are unbelievable. Best place to live in Austin TX. Pool area is so good and barbecues are great too.

I absolutely love living here! The amazing staff, great location and incredible views are unbeatable in Austin. A hidden gem in East Austin for sure!!

Great community, responsive staff/office management and clean environment. We’ve loved everything about the breakers, and the pool view with the boardwalk is the best!

It’s not just another apartment complex. It’s a home where you know your neighbors. The staff members genuinely care about you and the maintenance team is courteous and responsive.

Great community, great staff, maintenance workers are great and responsive. I e recommend Breakers to several friends who have all moved here and love this place.

Management is fantastic! Buildings are older, but well maintained with mature tree cover. Property is in a great location close to downtown. Pool & fitness room have a great view of the lake.

My husband and I love living at The Breakers. It’s a friendly community. The property is well taken care of. So are the tenants. When theres an issue, it gets taken care of asap The staff here is friendly, courteous and caring. They are dog friendly and my dog loves going to the office for treats and love.

I love living here! The complex is quiet, the location is incredible, and all the residents are super friendly. I highly recommend living here.

Good place! Staffs are nice perfect location. The apartment is a bit old but it’s affordable and not bad at all. Pool is pretty nice with city view and the laundry room is up to date

Great place to live! Beautiful view and amazing location. Especially if you have a dog because there is direct access to the lady bird lake trail.

Overall love the location and everything is overall a good experience at this price point. I would suggest to a friend to live here. It is a little outdated but I have enjoyed my experience and time here. Paige is the best!

Great location and price, pretty unbeatable in this city. Leasing office and maintenance staff are always very helpful and kind. Love being connected to lady bird

The location is hard to beat. We love hanging out at the pool and being able to see the city skyline. The staff is always very attentive and kind. The apartment community itself is still small enough for it to feel homey inside of a big city.

The breakers is great. You can’t beat being on the pier and being able to walk or bike. The dog park is also an amazing bonus. The location is also wonderful

Dated buildings, but well-maintained with great staff in a convenient neighborhood. The views are great and the boardwalk is accessible from the property.

Love it! Great staff and safe community and perfect location and reasonable rent price! Couldn’t ask for more. Down side is there is only community washer and dryer, but it’s sufficient.

Great views of downtown and Lady Bird lake! I love the location and how quiet it is! Very walkable!! Definitely would recommend living here!

Move in was fast and efficient. The office staff was amazing. Ask for Paige! They made the process super easy and were able to help me when I had issues with my other complex.

The breakers have been nothing but sweet and supportive moving in. They are always fast with any needs we have, and very attentive. The staff is so kind and welcoming, we absolutely love it here.

The Breakers has been a lovely place to call home from the amazingly friendly and helpful staff to the location. Anytime I have needed any assistance with my unit, maintenance has been right on top of it immediately.

The property is gated and always maintained. Access to the Lady Bird Lake trail. Office staff are amazing and friendly (a lot different from other apartment complexes). Maintenance requests are handled very fast I’ve never had any issues here for a year. Great community. Best apartment I’ve lived in.

We’ve lived at the breakers for a few years now and we love the community! Maintenance team is always prompt when we need them, and management has always been great to us.

Such a great place to live with a friendly community and an amazing location! Staff is always so kind and helpful and we have thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

I love the views. I’ve been here for almost 5 years and I’ve been super satisfied with the community. I would recommend this place to anyone who’s looking to live in this area.

The location here is top notch for the rates the place is going for! Open one gate and you are right on the Roy Ann Butler hike and bike trail, about 2 miles from downtown! Great stuff.

I feel fortunate to have stumbled upon The Breakers when I was first looking for a place to live in Austin, and now having lived there for almost 2 years. The leasing and management staff (Paige, Ashley and Norma) are friendly, kind and very responsive. The location is fantastic and central to everything, including downtown, hiking trails, and the lake right at their doorstep. The community is social and there’s always a friendly face around. I have made great friends and memories here, watched many beautiful sunrises/sunsets, picked up paddleboarding, and rode bikes along the trail and around town. This place is special and I would recommend to those who like those types of things :)

Great place to live! Awesome pool and nice views. Close by to a ton of different stuff. There’s always something fun to do around here. I recommend it for anyone in their 20s/30s

it's awesome! loving the community. it's a beautiful place, affordable, strong AC unit, great maintenance. no parking problem, great neighbors and a good environment for pets!

I have lived here six years and my experience has been amazing. It is a great place to live. Close to the highway and downtown, yet you feel like you are in a quiet community.

I love living here near the water. The management staff are awesome and super friendly. I love going to the pool and being able to go paddle boarding too. Rainy street is only a mile away. You can scooter to any place you want to go

Convenient location. Management and maintenance are friendly, professional, and responsive. Pet friendly. We love living here! Highly recommend.

We really love the Breakers on the Lake. The staff here is amazing! From the maintenance guys to the leasing office staff, everyone has been super helpful. The community stays pretty clean and the neighbors are friendly. We love the location and the accessibility to the boardwalk.

Response administrative staff, effective maintenance teams, great views, and the best pool parties in town. Would recommend, be sure to check prices and quality.

I love the community, it’s a very quiet neighborhood. I’ve lived here for the past 4 years and had a great experience. The office and staff and attentive.

Generally nice facilities. The staff is nothing but friendly. Some of the amenities (like the dishwasher) are on their last legs and the neighborhood isn't the best, but that comes with going with an older property in this part of Austin

Overall good place to live . Affordable and Great location. Don’t expect luxury living but can’t beat the location. There are so bugs and critters roaming around but have to keep in mind how close to the boardwalk you are.

Paige is extremely nice and helpful throughout the process. Love being right off the lady bird trail. The location is great because you are still close to downtown but without the noise.

Pros - Amazing Location 1 mile from downtown, literally on the lake/trail, close to I35 (but not too close) and access to the growing east 6th/rainy. - Prices are reasonable. - Office staff/repairs could not be better/fast to act. - Pool is fun Cons - Gym could use a little TLC additions, heavier dumbbells. - People could be better about picking up waste. - It's older but I like my unit.

The community is nice and quiet, I definitely love living here. Staff and all maintenance personnel are all very friendly and caring. Location is key, the surrounding neighborhoods are great.

The staff is amazing above all else! The community is welcoming, apartments are up to date, and the location speaks for itself! Could not say enough nice things about The Breakers.

This property is not new. This property does not have the cutting edge gym equipment or a boujee look. That being said, it is the essence of Austin and stands out as a great place to live because of the location and the STAFF. They treat you better than family and even bother to learn your name. Service issues are quickly resolved in a reasonable time and they work hard to explain things and try to avoid misunderstandings. I appreciate this place.

The breakers is a great place to live! Right by the water. Maintenance is nice and timely. And the front office staff is the best! It’s an older complex, but the location can’t be beat.

Wayyy overpriced of what it is. Amenities are really bad and not in great physical condition did had hot water for over a month and running water for serval weeks seriously not great and they do a lot of fees btw over the average. Just my tip there are better options just down the road that are cheaper and in better shape.

I have lived here for 2 years but will not be renewing my lease due to the fact that management cares for peoples pets more than basic human decency. The pool is overrun by dogs, especially on the weekends. Dog excrement melts in the pool on Sunday mornings. You must put up with unschooled pets while only trying to enter your own apartment. I have been bitten and snapped at multiple times while just trying to carry in my groceries........ Just disgusted with it at this point......

I've been in the Breakers for nearly 3 years, management has always been responsive to our needs. We once had an issue come up at 10pm on a Sunday and they came right away. The location is close to downtown and has the best views. I would advise residents to have a good relationship with management, because that will make sure you have a great experience in this complex.

You will find a bug everyday, overpriced for what you get, and car has been broken into twice. Also, the gates are always unlocked or open.

I encourage moving elsewhere this managment company is horrible. I went 7 months without hot water. the cockroaches have an intellect they fly and are difficult to rid. The only staff there who are friendly and polite were the maintence staff. Please heed this and other warning this place is horrible. the tub had huge paint chips flaking and getting into orfices and there are snakes often seen near the back gate leading to the board walk looks are decieving. DO NOT MOVE HERE

Manager asks specific tenants and staff to write a nice review about their experience, since she knows there are many complaints around. I have no decent hot water in my unit. I have asked the staff what’s going on, and had no decent explanation. My water bill has jumped from the $50s to the $100s the last 3 months, no explanation other than that’s the bill! I have other neighbors without hot water and other few lucky that had no problem with their units. Many people are moving out due to health issues related with infestation of cockroaches, fleas, leaks of water, bad smells, etc. Don’t let the locations and wonderful views fool you, there are so many options around with the same view. If you enjoy warm water and a bug free apartment, this is not your place. Management is nice, but not helpful at all since they are very limited in what they can do. That’s why there is high staff turnover. Can’t wait for my lease to be done.
