2008-10-31T13:16:46-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Really, its a pretty good apartment complex. I really enjoyed this place. More for the fact, that everyone here seems to care. Which I found quite refreshing.

Villas Of La Costa: Not too bad..... (Recommending!)

2008-03-26T01:21:38-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Unlike some of the other apartment complexes in Austin that I've lived in, I'm actually somewhat enjoying my time here. It's relatively quiet, with the exception of young children who play outside after school until it is dark. They always notify you when they are going to enter the apartment, ...

Villas Of La Costa: best complex I have ever lived in! (Recommending!)

2007-12-06T14:33:41-06:00

From julesism2: I moved to Austin in May 2006 and spent a total of 18 months here. The entire staff is extremely passionate towards tenants who are in return responsible. The maintenance crew is unbelievable! I never had any major problems but I know for a fact that they fix things quickly ... [click to read full apartment review]

Villas Of La Costa: worst place in austin to live (Not Recommending)

2007-04-17T08:37:49-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The management sucks here. They never do anything to really help you. All they care about is your rent check. They'll tow your car even if they know it's a resident's car. There is a bad roach problem. Like one of the earlier posts said. DON'T LIVE HERE IF YOU ... [click to read full apartment review]

Villas Of La Costa: A great place to live (Recommending!)

2006-07-27T01:00:26-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Initially I worried about the safety. But that concern was quickly dismissed. A lot of Hispanics live here, but most of them are hardworking good people. I have lived here for a year and just renewed for another year.

Pros:
- Gated community, I felt safe (at lease for the last year ... [click to read full apartment review]

Villas Of La Costa: Good place to live (Recommending!)

2006-06-15T14:16:16-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I lived in a Villas' loft from August 2004 to June 2006. It worked just fine. Although the pool area was loud from kids playing during the day, older guys playing soccer late into the night and the occasional drunken parties at the hot tub at 2am, the amenities added ...

Villas Of La Costa: Need to use registered mail and dated digital pics... (Not Recommending)

2006-04-04T15:56:57-06:00

From -Anonymous-:
The management are total liars.

I moved out before the end of my lease,
and provided them with a note on the
envelope that the key was in when I
dropped it in their drop box.

When I didn't get my security deposit or
last months rent back, they claimed that
they'd never ... [click to read full apartment review]

2006-03-10T10:23:32-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I'm glad someone else is happy here. According to the other reviews, I thought I was the only one.

Villas Of La Costa: Do I live in a different complex? (Recommending!)

2006-01-28T09:01:05-06:00

From drew@dothedrew.org: Because the reviews this apartment complex has been getting are almost comically skewed. I've lived here almost two years - and I'm going for three. The most golden comment you'll read on here is that the maintenance guys are about the coolest guys on the planet, and they really are. ... [click to read full apartment review]

2005-09-29T12:56:44-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I love living at Villas of La Costa. It's a little bit older apartment complex but management makes up for it. The girls in the office are so nice.

2005-05-11T21:24:22-06:00

From -Anonymous-: oMGosh! Where do I begin? Okay. Management is kewl to an extent. They are nice, sure. Friendly, too. But when it comes to actually applying their lease rules and policies....shame on them.

2004-08-18T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Broken cars, borken windows, flat tires, boats are the first things you see when you drive past the broken gate. The parking lot turns into a drinking festival at sundown. We finally have grass, that's supposed to make it feel like home. The management changes with the season. They make ... [click to read full apartment review]

Villas Of La Costa: it's not all that bad (Recommending!)

2004-08-02T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I moved to Austin in 2003 to begin grad school at UT, and I signed a lease for this place without ever seeing it. Honestly, it could've been worse.

Pros: LOTS of floor space for your money. I had a 700 sq ft. apt for $550, and the price went ... [click to read full apartment review]

2004-02-21T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: You get what you pay for. It´s pretty cheap for the amount of space and being on the shortest UT shuttle is a huge advantage and the main reason I chose to live here.

My old car was broken into a few weeks after I moved in, so that sucked. ... [click to read full apartment review]

Villas Of La Costa: worst mistake of our lives (Not Recommending)

2004-01-11T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: If youre even *thinking* of renting at the Villas of La Costa, just rid yourself of that idea and go scrub your brain before you find yourself in the dungeons of this hellhole. We had the most horrible experiences here.
