    Last year I commented that it was a nice place with fantastic garden with ducks. Pharmacy and supermarket is near by. But!!!!! A year later I found out that it is super noisy, you can hear your neighbor’s breath. Geese start gaggle 5-6 o’clock in the morning and gardeners will cut the bushes around 7 a.m. close to your window. You feel like you live in a hell.

    This apartment complex has been one of the worst rental experiences I've ever had. Five years ago, it was a decently attractive property with a beautiful duck pond and landscaping, but ever since the owners decided to expand and renovate the complex, the living experience went downhill fast. Here is a list of negative issues that suggest you should probably stay away from renting here: - Endless water shutoffs the first couple years, although this has been mitigated since they tore out the duck pond and performed renovations. Many times they felt it was OK to have water shutoffs up to 8 hours or more, with not a hint of financial recompensation, which shows you their nickle and diming attitude towards their tenants. - Since construction for renovation and a giant high rise/parking structure started over 2 years ago, it was non-stop noise at all hours of the day; for those who work from home STAY AWAY as the construction will probably not be ending any time soon. - Since construction started there was as serious lack of concern for tenants' safety, security and comfort, many times and even after several complaints, workers would leave the door to the utility closet of the ENTIRE BUILDING wide open even at night, and they even cut the internet cable at one point accidentally. - Many internet disruptions, which unfortunately you only have the option of Comcast/Xfinity here. At one point it was found that RATS were chewing the cable wires, and when a tech came by to examine the problem, he stated that the coaxial cable used for the entire building's internet was terribly outdated and needed replacing/recabling. Management never performed any action on this after several requests, and opted instead to keep the main internet cable line lying outside on the ground exposed to the elements, which remains to this day. - In the last six months or so of my lease, there was a serious ROACH problem, most likely from other tenants in the building, and the management gladly charged us for pest control fees when they did not set foot in our apartment at all to mitigate the roach problem. - For the cost, the balcony view and comfort from most apartments leaves a lot to be desired due to construction, noise, and a habit of many tenants to flagrantly violate the rules and smoke on their balcony. Also, since equipment for in home AC was installed in renovated units, you can expect the deafening roar of HVAC sounds in your backyard when you open your windows/sliding balcony door. Also, do not expect to receive the majority of your deposit back and certainly don't waste any time cleaning your place as they charge you exorbitant fees for cleaning, "bulk items" removal when there were none, and no consideration for normal wear and tear. I cannot recommend Laguna Clara as a place to rent from in good conscience, STAY AWAY and get something better for your money.

    I've been living here for the past 2 years and have experienced the old units compared to the new. The outdated yellow units I wouldn't even recommend sheltering an animal in. However, with housing markets still high I decided to give the new units a shot. I was swindled with false numbers into moving forward until I was hit with surprise fees after the first month. Not to mention TONS of construction noise and unhelpful staff. Every morning at 8am I'm forced to search for the construction worker that decided to block in my vehicle. The gardeners will blow the geese poop, leaves, and dirt on top of your patio leaving you to clean. I am extremely unsatisfied and if I was given the option to cancel my contract, I would with no hesitation! Don't move here. Keep looking

    Brand new tenant!, We had quite a few questions prior and after moving in and leasing consultant Jamil was greatly helpful and kind. He explained everything with great detail, and provided some tips to help us function our hew home correctly, followed up with us and accommodated the requests we had. He definitely help make our move nice and easy. So far the experience has been wonderful.

    Had a tour recently, the office guy is very friendly and nice, explaining everything clearly and being honest with the construction and potential risk. Love the new and modern interior design, may comeback next year when more buildings are done.

    Moved into the newly renovated buildings and so far so good. Leasing staff has been great, easy to get a hold of. Wasn’t given a key to balcony storage when I moved in but the maintenance team was able to correct that within 24hrs. Omar was respectful entering the apartment and was able to change locks in 15min. Happy with the complex so far.

    Jamil did a great job guiding our second tour, he explained a lot of features that we missed in our self guided tour, you can notice he enjoy his job and it’s always nice have someone willing to clear all our questions. Great customer service, we can’t wait to move in next week to our new apartment!

    Jamil was very polite and professional in scheduling our tour and showing me the apartments available. He gave very good advice regarding suitability of specific units given that I work from home some days. He was excellent in his communication and took his time to understand my needs. The upgraded units that we saw are excellent and we will certainly consider them when our current lease expires

😐 Pros (compared to similar price community): 1. Fantastic environment. If you have a baby then strolling here is pleasant 2. There are more diversity of amenity. For example, tennis court and basketball court (though a bunch of Indian people sometimes take it for cricket) Cons: 1. Gym is unbalanced...
