Apartments in Jacksonville, FL

“I lived at Brooklyn for around 3 years and have to say, it’s a pretty great place to live in Jacksonville. This is due to the management team. I’ve dealt with some lousy management groups, but Mark is the best. I’m a bit of an anxious person who is frequently in contact with the office about questions, concerns, etc. Each time I had a question, Mark would be in touch.

For example, my dog began to have sudden health issues when being outside the complex. We were wondering if it was due to something cleaners were spraying outside. Mark reached out right away, spoke with me, answered questions, went back to ask the cleaners what they were using, ask if it was new, and got back to me. He didn’t have to do any of that. When a friend of mine’s car was broken into in the parking lot over the weekend, Mark allowed us to use a garage spot until Monday when we could take it in for repair. He goes above and beyond. To say he’s exceptional would be an understatement. I’d be thrilled to live in any property he managed. The staff under him is also great - Keysha is a huge help and the maintenance workers are kind and efficient.

The rest of my experience was again, pretty good. I never felt unsafe. You need a fob to get anywhere in the complex. This can be good and bad. Is it secure? Yes. But never forget your fob or you will be waiting around the door until someone else who lives in your building enters/exits to get back in. The office on site also needs a fob to enter, so it’s just a pain to deal with if you forget that one thing. There’s a mailroom, a gym that has been recently renovated, a small office. Across the street is a string of stores which is helpful. The river is nearby. There’s also plenty of guest parking. I see complaints about this and never understand it. I had guests over frequently and there’s always an abundance of open spots. So please don’t let those comments be a deterrent.

In terms of the quality of the apartment - I think it’s serviceable. The appliances are okay. If you run into any issues, maintenance jumps on it. I’d say walls are thin. Noise depends on who is around you. Unfortunately I had a very bad domestic abuse situation above me. This made many nights unpleasant and ourselves and neighbors had to call the police on them on occasion. My apartment was fortunately facing the parking lot, so I did not get much other noise from outside. But if you are facing the other side by the street, it is loud and disruptive. You do not want to be facing the street at all. Fire alarms are also really sensitive, which can be annoying at times when cooking. Overall though, you’d be comfortable in one of these units. It isn’t luxurious but it’s clean and comfortable. You get what you pay for and here that’s largely a good thing.

I think, unfortunately, where I take a star off is based on external factors. It’s not a reflection of Mark or his team. But I’ve felt there’s been a decline in quality of clientele. It’s noisier. There’s a Uhaul daily in the parking lot for people leaving. I’d say it’s louder. There were a string of a few car break ins from non-residents. Just things that never happened earlier that became more prevalent over time. The domestic abuse situation above me was unsettling as well. We’ve also had to deal with neighbors with absolutely out of control dogs. Dogs that would charge at you coming out of the elevator as the owner can barely restrain them. And lastly, the mail carrier from USPS is really bad. They misplaced several of my packages since February and required me tracking down the Postmaster to sort it out. Mark told me many residents were having issues with this new carrier and it stinks dealing with all that. Not sure a fix is coming soon either.

TLDR, this apartment is a safe bet. The management team is worth it. The units themselves are fine, nothing you haven’t seen before. And the complex is nice with plenty of parking. I’d highly recommend it, with my only concerns being unreliable USPS serv”

“I’m moving here early May. Mr. Nelson was so helpful with my application process. The community is beautiful and very well maintained, the apartment that was shown to me was absolutely charming. I can’t wait to be part of this community.”

“Super fast approval. Wasn’t even sure with everything I had on my credit that I would get approved. Very courteous and awesome staff, especially John and Hope. Amazing amenities and community driven activities and apps for convenience and social networking. Definitely a must if you just moved to the area or are stationed at the Mayport Naval Station.”

“I've been here for a month and I absolutely love it. The staff is super nice and helpful. The maintenance team has been quick to respond to my requests, which I've never had before. The grounds are beautiful and the pool is amazing. I feel like I'm living at a resort. I definitely recommend moving here!”

“I moved here from Ohio in December. Chad and Anna who both work in the office are AMAZING!! They truly care about the people that live here. The building is gorgeous, the events are fun and connect the people that live here. Beautiful community and amazing workers…who could ask for more? Did I mention the dolphins I see from my balcony? ?”

“I just had an air conditioner repair today,Sunday July 9 from Deandre. I did not want to call and bother anyone; however, The air conditioner was making such a banging noise since yesterday and today.

Every question was answered and every concern I had was listened to. They truly went above and beyond to assist me. The application process was swift and smooth and I am very happy with my apartment.”

“Ocean Blue is a great place to live: clean, comfortable, and quiet, with Manager Angel McElveen leading the way helped by assistant Christa Mancini. OB is only one minute by car from Hanna Park and just minutes from downtown Atlantic Beach.Rents are very reasonable!”

“Great apartment complex! Love all the events they always host! And the staff here is truly one of kind! They all are nice and go the extra mile to make sure residents are happy. Truly the best apartment I’ve ever stayed at. : )”

“Great front office staff! The maintenance team is very attentive and quick! I love how strong the sense of community is and how homey my apartment feels. I love the 24 hour gym, its so nice to be able to go to the gym when I cant sleep at night. The resort pool is also a dream honestly! They just put a new fire pit in and added a turf section. Its so nice to live somewhere that is constantly trying to better the community.”

“The most amazing complex with the sweetest agents! Starla was incredible and very patient and made our visit perfect. Cant wait to move in and make this apartment our home!”

“Moving into a new apartment can often be a stressful endeavor, but thanks to Tyler, a leasing agent at 220 Riverside, my experience has been nothing short of amazing! From the moment I stepped into the leasing office, I was greeted with warmth, kindness, and genuine compassion.Not only does he know his job inside out, but he also takes the time to establish personal connections with each tenant. What truly touched my heart is that he knows my dog, Piper, and greets her by name! Those small gestures truly make a difference and set Tyler apart.Any maintenance requests I've had so far were swiftly taken care of, often within the same day! That level of responsiveness is truly remarkable and speaks volumes about Tyler's dedication to ensuring the comfort and satisfaction of his residents. He's quick to address any concerns and ensures that everything is resolved to the highest standard.Thank you, Tyler, for making my transition into this new chapter of my life so smooth and pleasant.”

“Moved here last year from Potenza across the street and am BEYOND happy with that decision.
For about the same price, we get a much more spacious (and CLEAN!) apartment, with a garage and updated appliances (stainless steel everything in the kitchen).
I live on the second floor and have never had an issue with noise, besides hearing my neighbors' music sometimes but never past 9-10PM.
In the past year, they have kept the community looking beautiful (more so than the folks across the street) and maintenance shows up when requested.
We just resigned our lease for 12m, and thankfully the rent stayed the same from our first 15m lease.
Really, the only con is the small gym offered!”

“The Residences at Barnett has first class people, beautiful exposed brick apartments, granite countertops/stainless steel appliances, and is one of Jacksonville's historic architectural jewels. Furthermore, the addition of more amenities is going to happen with the growing momentum to accelerate Downtown's revival, and two of the 18 floors not yet built out. Happy with my decision to move in start of this year, and can't wait to see what's to come (especially Downtown retail growth) in the not so distant future!”

“I'm from 5020 as we call it (fifty twenty) it's ghetto..but I love it. I've been originally staying there for 28 years I moved not long ago but I miss it..”

“I could not say enough great things about this community! The entire staff has really made me feel welcomed here from the very beginning and I love that they all genuinely care, which unfortunately is rare nowadays. I recently transferred to another unit here to downsize. I wouldn’t move anywhere else! Ashley, Alex, Bri and all of the maintenance staff have gone above and beyond and I would give them all 10 stars if I could ⭐️”

“My husband and I are satisfied with the home we have in Alaqua. The environment, the pool are very clean. The staff is friendly and for any problem we may have had, we received a quick service. it is a very quiet area with a good community.we suggests this residence for everyone that is looking for home,you will find here a very friendly and nice place.”

“Jasmine, the leasing specialist, was very helpful throughout the whole application process. I can’t wait until my move in day. The in office special for applying in office was fun too.”

“I moved in when the complex first opened up, lived here for a year, moving because I'm leaving Jacksonville. The facilities are nice & clean, amenities are great and maintenance is outstanding. My studio is perfect for a single person and the fact that my utilities were included is a plus. I even had my own washer! My only complaint is that the refrigerator is tiny and can only hold so much. Definitely worth checking out!”

“The property manager Anily has really changed the property for the better!!! Constantly looking to improve where improvements are needed. She personally hears out complaints and does what she can to help. Wonderful place to live ✨️”

“I just moved into Antlers Apartments a week ago and have been happy with my experience. The apartments are spacious and well-maintained, with walk-in closet and full-sized washer and dryers. The community is also very safe and quiet, with a well-manicured lawn and plenty of parking. The staff is friendly, Wendi Loftus is amazing, she made the move-in process very easy and helped me thru every step. Overall, I would recommend Antlers Apartments, compared to other affordable apartments in the neighborhood, I checked all of them and went for Antlers. 4/5 stars.”

“I hardly leave reviews but I felt compelled to do this one. This place is amazing and here is why: 1) the people that work here are caring. They have been working here for years and they take time to know you and really care about you. I signed the lease with Jill twice and she has been very kind to me. I can’t praise all of the staff enough. All of them have helped me in some way or another. 2) the facility amenities are in great shape and clean. You can walk into the bathroom in the gym every day and it is spotless clean! I really appreciate this because I am a clean freak. The pool is always looking beautiful and they give proper maintenance always. You should come look for yourself!! 3) The lake, OMG I feel blessed every day of my life when I wake up and look to the lake. My apartment view is lake front. This might not be a thing for you but I am a nature and animal lover and I appreciate the lake, the ducks that are so friendly, the turtles that come up to say hi ☺️. It is breathtaking. 4) The location. The school system was very important to me when making a decision on the lease, and I am confident I made the right choice. The school system is graded A, one of the best in the state.
Then why 4 starts instead of 5. Here is why: 1) I wish the appliances could be updated to a new style. The black style seems out of date. 2) There are roaches in my apartment and they have sent pest control but it didn’t do the trick so I went out myself and bought poison food strips and it seems to be working so far. I am absolutely terrified of roaches. I am in a war in my apartment but I am gonna win ??
I wish I could give 4.5 starts instead because the cosmetics is not deal breaker. I passed out on other apartments that are brand new construction for this place and I don’t regret one bit. The roaches can be an issue if it can’t be fixed but I am confident I am gonna win; after all, I pay rent and they don’t. ???
Thank you so much for the staff that makes this place as beautiful as is, such a great community to live in!! ?”

“Excellent manager and secretary who have gone that extra mile to see that I am comfortable and safe. Dedicated and prompt maintenance staff who are skilled as well as polite. The grounds staff keep the place well-groomed and clean. The well-being of all residents is taken seriously, especially keeping a watchful eye on the children.”

“Every time I called the office everyone is so nice too me I had problems with my application and Lindsey walked me through it with no problem. I’m so honored to even met you guys to talk to people that’s so respectable polite I was really comfortable talking to you guys I want you guys to keep up the good work and you guys have a good evening. Hope to see you soon.”
