Newport Apartamentos

I just want to say that in this whole development of apartments there is the nicer area, and there is the not soo nice area.
Nearby the leasing office is where we live….
Garbage always overflowing, tennis court, no net, cheap backetball hoops with no backboard and the court is dirty and never kept up. There are two huge bars on the ground behind the pool that has been sitting there for 8 months. They claim to be “doing maintenance” on the pool area. Not a change since I’ve got here. Not to... mention its dangerous, if my kids go back there to play and trip over those things.

Rent is not bad but for what we are paying we exprct the area to be kept up. There are also loud parties at the pool almost EVERY WEEKEND when the leasing people leave…. And thats fine….but the parties are until about 3am. Thats a problem. The pool hours do not apply and the people are soo disturbing.


The other side of the development is nicer. There is a dock, a nice pond and the dumpsters are always clear. I just wish they would move us to that area. this just my personal experience.
Inside of the apartment is nice, most of the outlets dont hold plugs, the doors are stuck closed bc of the paint job, and there are bee hives outside of our windows. We did have Little bit of an ant problem, millions of ants in our toilet and tub faucet, but pest control took care of that.

One more thing, the pictures on these apartments need to be updated. They are blue and grey… not orange and yellow. The pictures are very deceiving Lee mas

I like it here. The price is good and so it the location. I just renewed my lease.

Not the worst place to live, but certainly has a fair share of issues. Space is nice, if a bit expensive for what you’re getting, but the actual apartment is good. Location is nice, outside the major city area yet still close enough to reach local grocery stores, gas stations and a nice view of Hillsborough river. However we’ve had constant issues that even after living here for 3 years, seem to either be ignored by the maintenance office or continually reoccur even after being fixed. We’ve had... to have maintenance fix a problem with bats entering the house more times than I can count. The dangers of having bats in the house is bad enough, but we also have a cat that could potentially get an awful disease from them. On top of that, the amenities are riddled with issues. Our dishwasher functions, but has never actually been able to clean anything, the A/C unit freezes which makes it harder to actually cool the apartment even after having it checked several times now, and by far the worst was our bathroom. I stepped in to take a shower and heard a snap. Looked down and the bathtub had cracked. This wouldn’t be an issue on its own, but when maintenance came, they simply told us they’ll have to hire outside help to fix it. I contacted the office multiple times and each time they told me they cannot give an estimate of when it will be finished, who will be working on it, or even when they will send someone to fix it. I checked again about a month after maintenance first came, and they had closed the request saying it was completed! Luckily we were in a 2 bath apartment so we could still shower, but this was by far the most infuriating part of living here. 2 stars for being a decent place to live compared to the surrounding areas of Tampa, but the multitude of issues from living here prevents me from recommending Newport as a good place to live.

I recommend these apartments, ignore the bad comments. There are NO cockroaches in my house and everything is very good, just call the office if you have any difficulties at home and they send the maintenance people. It is a super quiet place. The office staff is very professional.Dayanis is very kind and gentle, she has helped me with all my moving process and is always there for everything.Happy to have moved here

This place is excellent if you want tranquility for your family. Quiet, safe and beautiful by its lakes, ideal for walking and enjoying. The spectacular facilities and if something breaks they immediately help you
