My husband and I have lived at Lighthouse Bay for almost a year and a half and we are very happy here. The staff has always been very caring and tentative to our needs. Anytime we have expressed a maintenance concern it has been taken care of promptly. The grounds are kept up beautifully and since the remodel the outside of the buildings are up to date and they seem to be working on updating appliances. So far we have received a new AC unit and a new dishwasher. Unfortunately lately we have experienced a few break-ins and we are cautious in making sure we lock up when we leave. It is crazy to believe the accusations made by one person about the staff selling master keys. The staff seem very concerned and have made a point to inform all residents of the break ins and how to take preventive measures. The police have made sure that we know that it is not only Lighthouse Bay with an up rise of break ins and that it is all of South Tampa. That s all I have to say. We love it here!

I am sorry to hear that. Did you live here before you after the remodel? Didn't you get to see your apartment before you moved in?

If you're speaking of the exterior remodel, we lived there before, during, and after the exterior remodel -there has NOT been any interior remodel that I'm aware of. We did see the apartment before moving in, and were told that everything would be fixed before we moved in. It didn't happen. Two months before our lease ended, I called to get our dishwasher fixed...it didn't happen -I must have called 5 times, and even asking if I could schedule a day for it to be fixed, and the day was scheduled, but the maintenance people never showed up - I think they viewed it as "they're moving soon, why bother fixing it".
