Lake Bayshore Condominiums

AWFUL PLACE!

I stayed here many many nights with my boyfriend who resided here for a couple of years. Over the last year I had been there, it has gotten worse and worse over time. Endless nights of music flooding into our apartment, unable to sleep in cause of it. Reports were made to the office, yet nothing had changed. Burglaries happened often in the parking lots- a couple in which we were victims of (shattered windows, stolen items). Many times officers have came to the apartment piecing... together crimes. Washers/dryers usually “out of order”.
Maintenance is awful, we reported one issue throughout the entire 2 years. One of the two toilets needed fixed, and the water damage from the hurricane be repaired. Took nearly a month for both to be addressed. They seemed to have just painted over the water damage- as they left their tools behind, and splattered paint all over our Tommy Bahama furniture.
The entire apartment has been swarmed with termites and spiders, roaches came and went over the course of time.
When my boyfriend and I finally decided to move, we did so accordingly. Gave a notice, followed all rules, cleared and deep cleaned the apartment, and proceeded on. When requesting personnel to come evaluate the apartment in order for us to collect the security deposit, we were told no. They’d do it when they could.
2 months later, we returned to the office, where a list of (false) damages was given. Such as: damaged blinds, stains in carpets, cleaning fee, etc). Both of us working full time jobs and often traveling out of town for weeks/months at a time, and staying at my established home- We were rarely here- reason for choosing such a low cost apartment. The listed damages struck us by great surprise and disbelief. Nearly $150 of the deposit was taken for “cleaning”. The apartment was in better condition when we left, than it was when we moved in (photos to justify).
I would never recommend anyone to live in these apartments what-so-ever, especially with children. they may be “cheap” but that is exactly what you get.
Totally disgusted with this complex. Read More

I've lived here since 2003. No in-unit washer/dryer. Prices on the washers have gone up. While maintenance is kind and quick, they don't always do the greatest job. My apartment's ceiling has leaked water twice now from the apartment above us. We have had a hole in the side of the building since we're on the end allowing bugs to get in the master bedroomthat hasn't been fixed. THERE IS SO MUCH CRIME AND NOISE!!!!! Children play in the streets and the pool is limited to 55+. I don't recommend it... and I haven't seen any changes except bad ones. Read More
