Carlton Arms of Winter Park Apartments

Great apartment choices, close to our shopping, Costco, Publix, Park Avenue area, property well taken care of, great maintenance guys, walk around and look at everything you'll love it.

Been in this apartment for 7 years now and just signed up for another year lease. The only reason why I'm not buying a house yet? I don't want to let go of my apartment. Office personnel and all employees have been very nice and on point professionally with everything and anything that I have needed.
I plan to stay here as long as I can.

I applied for a studio in April of 2021 and I asked to be placed on the waitlist. I was told it usually takes 6 to 8 months. Once December came, I still didn’t hear from them. I started calling them in December every single week until February of 2022. They told me that even though I been waiting for over 8 months they still had nothing available. I am very disappointed. Fortunately, I found another place that had a 1 bedroom available and didn’t require a wait list. I definitely would not... recommend this place. Read More

Carlton arms is a much older apartment complex. It's very cheap and affordable for being located in a very nice part of winter park. We have a 2/1 and rent is less than $800 a month which you can't beat else where. There is a waiting list which is $50, but once approved and accepted you can use that $50 towards your application fee(s). The waiting list is typically long so call and plan ahead if you're serious about renting here!
There is no "security" BUT we do have neighborhood watch which... they are on golf carts patrolling the neighborhood every night ALL night. They also do late night maintence work (after 5pm once the front office is closed). When we first moved in the AC didn't work but they did quickly fix it. One weekend our fridge just croaked and they replaced it immediately with a newer refrigerator.
PARKING! You must have a decal or they will leave you notes on your car threatening to tow. Also usually during the weekdays the parking is completely full so either come home early or expect to park on the other side of the neighborhood, but if you're lucky a person on their golfcart will be riding around and usually can A. help you find a spot or B. Give you a ride to your building. Or you have another option to pay $20 a month extra for a carport.
All apartments and townhouse have no washer or dryer in them, but the complex does have 2 laundromat facilities on the property which is opened from 6am to 11pm $1.50 per wash load and $.25 for every 8 minutes in the dryer. Bring your own quarters and laundry detergent. Next to each laundromat is a pool and a club house which is available for rent.
The apartments are semi tiny and very old but a little love and some airfreshner for the hallways will take that old retirement home smell out!
If you have kids, request either the 1st floor or a townhouse because you can hear EVERYTHING;luckily, we're on the 2nd floor but unluckily we have gotten noise complaints because of our 2 kids (3yr and 7yr) but hey we warned them!
This apartment complex is near I4 and the 408. You're right off the corner or Aloma and Semoran blvd. Up the block is Lakemont ave. There is a walgreens, Publix, whole foods, cvs, chase bank, 5/3 bank, ymca, etc. Aloma elementary, Brookshire elementary, and winter park high school which are A schools are close by as well!
You're in a great location! Overall this apartment complex is older but very convenient for the location and price. Read More

Living here at Carlton Arms has been amazing. I'm going on 3 years staying here and it has been great, the apartments are clean and taken care of. Maintenance is always on point with helping and handling any problems you may have and they provide pest control each month and garage pick up on Tuesdays and Fridays. There's 2 pools for both sides of the complex. The front office is always willing to help you out, it's really a great place to stay l highly recommend this apartment complex.
