Marina Village West Apartments

These are my take:
Pros:
+ Outside lawn and area is good
+ Move in is smooth.

Cons:
- Apartments inside are just super old and outdated.
-Safety (Home break-ins, car break-ins, minimal security cameras)
- Deposit will be held, so forget your deposit
-Rent prices (they don't match the amenities offered)
-Very old laundries

Awesome place and attention!
Alex are doing an amazing job, She helped me out a lot!

She made things easier for me to moving in!
I’m very Grateful to her!

We had roommates at the beginning and the rent was good then when it became just me and my other half rent increased by 350 then they take your money anyone looking for an apartment please don’t come to this THEY WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY CLEANED THE APARTMENT AND THEY SAID EVERYTNING WAS STILL DIRTY

I would recommend only signing a short term lease found German cockroaches in bathroom took photos to show office they confirmed they were roaches and decided to spray my unit right away I explained I was uncomfortable with the situation and told them I can be moved out of my unit right away I was told I had to pay a $900 termination fee plus provide a 30 day notice from time of complain and that I was responsible for those 30 days. This is policy but under the circumstances and being a good... tenant who’s never created a problem this was frustrating especially throwing all my belongings away and having to start over. Just be careful on what lease you sign because they show no mercy Read More

I have lived at the Marina Village West Apartments TWICE in the last ten years. First in a two bedroom with patio, which was very comfortable and well maintained. I moved when I purchased a house and I never had a bit of problem receiving my deposits or negotiating any of my paperwork. Marianne is terrific and so is her staff, but you have to be responsible for your own communication. Seriously, as a tenant, I never had a problem with maintenance or anything else, so long as I communicated... my needs to the office (respectfully) and gave them enough time to correct my concerns. When I look at some of these other reviews I believe that some reviewers lose sight of the fact that as a tenant, you become responsible for creating the kinds of relationships you are going to have in this kind of living environment; you have neighbors; you are a neighbor, so be a good one. As far as the front office, I can't imagine a more professional or caring staff available to you, the tenant.

I moved there a second time recently due to a house fire. This time Marianne agreed to a short term lease for six months until my home was repaired. Wow! How accommodating is that?!! Believe me, she could have gotten a longer lease in today's market, but as a previous tenant she considered my needs as a person. Again, when I moved back home this November, I had no issue with deposits or cleaning. Beyond being a respectful and obliging property manager, Marianne is a decent and considerate human being. She does take the time to treat you like a person, as does her staff.

The apartments themselves are getting a little older, but are well maintained. The grounds are immaculate and the TWO swimming pools and work out room are as clean and inviting as the landscapes. You don't have to apartment shop for long to see what's available in Stockton. I have referred two friends who have enjoyed living at Marina Village West as well. I have to laugh; a lot of people have lived in these apartments at one time or another. It is most likely due to their ideal location. They are just far enough away from the freeway and close to shopping and the 24 Hour Fitness.

Well, that's all I've got. Thanks to Marianne and her staff for their kindness during my last six month stay. I appreciated every conversation, every cup of office coffee, and every fire insurance fax you sent for me.
