Beach House at Amelia

Loved the property, and the management was always very kind and helpful. I enjoyed living here.

Walls and ceilings are poorly insulated - I can hear conversations, walking, snoring, televisions, and acts of intimacy both above me, and next door to me, at all hours of day and night. I'm a relatively good sleeper, but insomniacs should beware!

The electrical system seems incapable of handling the demand placed upon it-- often breakers trip when I'm doing multiple tasks such as using the range, oven, and vent fan all at once.

Between lack of soundproofing and electrical faults, I'm not... sure how the complex met Florida code for multifamily housing.

The "security gate" is a bit of a joke. It is frequently broken, and not really all that secure - people merely wait for a resident with a gate clicker to open the gate, and then they follow them in. Since it makes for good marketing, so the management lists it as an amenity, but then unfortunately fails to maintain it. It is mostly just an inconvenience, in my opinion.

Carpet is cheap synthetic and smells of volatile organic-off gassing. It does, however, match the color of my cat's vomit, so it is pretty easy to disguise his mishaps. Not great if you have allergies or asthma, I imagine.

I was recently warned that I would be fined for putting my garbage out 2 hours prior to the approved hours. If you travel or work shifts, you may never meet the approved window for garbage pickup. Read the fine print on this trash service before signing.

Random entry into apartments for smoke detector, fire inspection, etc. happens somewhat regularly. Residents are told to secure their pets for a 2-3 day window. This can be hard to accommodate unless you are prepared to board your animal or stay home from work.

My apartment has a northern exposure and is extremely dark. Artificial light is minimal, especially in the kitchen. Dark cabinets, dark floors, very dlittle light -- a little depressing frankly.

Other than the above, the apartment features typical builder grade finishes and is pretty roomy. The garages are an economical option for storage -- less than paying for a storage unit and more convenient, although they are not climate controlled.

Neighbors seem nice enough and mostly keep to themselves.

After reading so many negative reviews, I wonder if we are living in the same place. I have had nothing but positive experiences since I moved here. Although I have not had a lot of problems, the ones that I have had have been addressed immediately and with total professionalism. Apartment living is very different from a house and one must learn to adjust to a certain amount of noise and other things you don't have in a house. I really think the management team here are very professional and... very attentive to the needs of the tenants. Also a shout out to the maintenance guys who are great!!!!!! Lee mas

This has been an amazing community to live in. In the 2 yrs I've been here, I've had zero issues & the staff could not be more pleasant & responsive to my needs.

Great place to live. Super awesome for people who have dogs thanks to the pet parks!
