Arcona Strand Apartamentos

Looks nice from the outside but it truly is low quality construction, low quality service, and poorly managed.

Nothing gets done or fixed in a reasonable amount of time.

Management is generally unresponsive/hard to get answers from.

So many better places in the area to rent from at a much more reasonable cost.

I live in a 1bedroom 1bath unit. The unit is very spacious, generous closet size, and okay kitchen. This by no means is a luxury apartment. Be prepared for noise complaints!

Cons:
The walls are very very thin. You can head other peoples doors closing, conversations and music/TVs very easily. I work from home so this was a huge issue for me.

The whole community is overrun, Very crowded, little parking, and once spring gate opens... good luck.

Only one trash area... very dirty, smelly, and... always over flowing. They need a second location.

Management is a bit stuck up. They are tentative to emails and answering. But don’t depend on them.

Appliances: they have the cheapest of cheap from stainless steel. Very small fridge, small sinks, small dishwasher. I was expecting nicer given the “luxury” branding.

Floors: living room/kitchen/bath. Cheap cold plastic vynal floors. Will need area rugs. Bedroom, very cheap carpet and under lay.

Walls: flat wall paint that is just contractors base paint

Lighting: kitchen and bath are the only rooms with lights provided. You will need lamps for your living room and bedroom, there is no ceiling lights provided.

Kitchen: only the island is granite. The other counters are cheap stock material. Decent lifting.

Bedroom: very gracious size... gets very warm or cool depending on the season since there is only one return. Carpet is cheap. Closet is big.

Be prepared for contraction! I’ve had two flat tires already and the main road is about to get decent traffic due to another neighborhood going in.

Would I recommend to a friend. No.

Pros:

Location is nice being right off the highway. Very close to many shopping/grocery options.

Nice walking trail, but watch out for the power lines!

It’s Harrisburg, not much to expect. Lee mas

Noise levels are ridiculous! Floors shake and the building vibrates! Water leaks from washer, destroyed walls and carpeting! Very thin walls and poor quality materials! Trash situation is the worst! Only one dump site for all the buildings! People smoke all over the property, but it's a "smoke free" property, supposedly! Construction is a constant situation and dirt and mud are everywhere! Way over-priced! Especially with what you actually have to live and put up with!

Management is terrible and they knit pick everything that goes on. They call it “The great American neighborhood” which is ironic because there’s absolutely no freedom here. They put limits on everything, even the amount of people aloud in your apartment that you pay for. I can hear my upstairs neighbor use the bathroom while I’m on the other side of my own apartment. After your first lease is up they don’t let you do month to month leasing, they tell you to sign for another year at a much... higher rate. I agree with everyone else who wrote a review... DO NOT LIVE HERE. Lee mas

Poor management, poor customer service. Not luxury, everything is cheaply built.
