We moved in about 2 months ago, and our original apartment was not 100% ready. Not their fault! They did everything they could, including extra deep cleanings, extra paint layers, etc. Maintenance and the staff really went out of their own way to make it ready. Unfortunately, it wasn't to our expectations. So, on our move in day, Zach and management were able to offer another solution to our apartment. They recommended another apartment, a different side of the community. They were very accommodating and so helpful with the process. 2 months later, we can honestly say we love our apartment. Much more than the original one. Maintenance was/is awesome!! The front office and managers are incredible!! Best decision we made was moving here!

I used to really enjoy living at Barcelona Resorts, but now I’m just waiting for the next rent increase.

Greystar took over the property a couple of years ago, increased rent rates as high as they legally could (every year), began charging monthly pet rent, and have essentially made the tenants front the bill for general property beautification projects no one asked for (lighting, paving, leasing office, etc.)

The last straw and the reason I am writing this review is the recent implementation of PetScreening—a mandatory pet profile service which cost an ADDITIONAL $30 per pet annually—something I used to be able to submit for free to the front office via email.

So, now in addition to paying $50 per pet per month, I am required to build a profile for each of them and pay another $30 per pet per year. This is all on top of a hefty initial pet deposit when I moved in.

I know apartment complexes don’t like having pets on the property because of the liability it carries, but I’ve never lived at a “pet-friendly” apartment that make their tenants jump through this many hoops and then makes YOU pay to jump through those hoops.

Barcelona Resorts does offer gorgeous and large living spaces, but I would only recommend moving here if you do not have pets and if money is of no object, because you will be gouged on both of those fronts without any remorse.

I really enjoy the home I’ve built for myself here over the last few years and I am grateful for the great maintenance staff, which is why I am trying to roll with the punches, but it’s disgraceful how greedy this place has become.

My family and I have lived her for about 5 years now and it’s really a great place. the community grounds are clean, the staff is excellent and like many other communities I’ve lived at, the parking is never an issue. You get one garage space and one pass and you just have to read the lease agreement and abide by the rules and there will be no issues. the rules are nothing out of the ordinary.

This apartment complex asked me to take down my American flag in my entryway. They stated flying flags of any kind is prohibited. My grandfather fought in World War II, Korea and Vietnam. Just know you can’t fly an American flag if you live here. I felt happy about living here until this happened. I plan to move out after next month.

There is a response below this review that states the complex attempted to make a compromise. I was contacted by an agent who suggested that the American flag should only be allowed to be displayed by residents on certain days of the year. I don’t believe that restrictions around flying an American flag on soil of the United States of America are correct nor legal. It’s a sad situation overall. I truly believe the only reason I was contacted by this agent is so management could reply and say they attempted to address the issue. My wife, children and I will be moving elsewhere.

The towing of a car regardless if you have a car pass or not, they will tow your car. My car got towed with $510 to spend or more due to in part of the securities petty system. FYI park your car outside if you can
