    Oceanview is a great place to live. The grounds and apartments are kept clean and tidy. The management staff are friendly to pets and other residents. The location is wonderful--next to trails and the ocean.

        I've lived here 4.5 years. My rent has increased $500.00 a month. I can no longer afford to live here. The owner does not care about the tenants.. If they can get more from someone else, they will.

                                          We appreciate your feedback. The renovation project we completed last year, was intended to revitalize the overall appearance of the community for all our residents to enjoy and we apologize for any inconvenience. Oceanview would love to add amenities such as a fitness center and/or Jacuzzi, but unfortunately we do not have the adequate space to accommodate these additions. We hope that residents enjoy use of our heated pool year round, natural gas bbq, as well as the close proximity to the ocean for recreational enjoyment. Unfortunately, the cell phone reception within the entire area can be poor depending on your provider, but the internet service is great! Please let us know if your cable line needs technical support. Also, if you'd like us to come take a look at the location of your living room outlets to see what we can do, please feel free to contact the office. Thanks again for your feedback and have a great day! Sincerely, The Oceanview Team

                                          We moved to Oceanview Apartments in thinking that it was better that the other apartments in the area. The only think that is actually better would probably be the view, which is good. The maintenance is very on top of things as well.ā€¦Ā See More >

                                            Thank you for your valuable feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during our renovations last year, but our overall goal was to revitalize the appearance of the community for all our residents to enjoy, and we feel this was a huge success. Apartment inspections typically happen twice a year by our staff, so we can assure that all fire safety equipment is fully functional and there aren't any signs of water intrusion. We understand how these inspections may inconvenience our residents, and are always happy to offer scheduled appointments for apartment entry. Per the lease agreement monthly rent is due on the 1st of the month with a grace period through the 2nd, and late fees being assessed on the 3rd. We love our residents, and strive to provide best in class customer service. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to improve your quality of living here at Oceanview.

                                            Nice units and pool. Better than comparable developments in the area but still pricey. Also experienced slow, erratic improvement work on building exterior that limited access to resident spaces like patios, carport and bike storage.
