Windsor at Main Place

Love it! Lived here over 12 months, can’t beat the location or the service.

My daughter and 2 friends from Chapman U rented a 2 bedroom for first semester this year, and left after only 4 months. The place seems really good at first and they have good amenities, although very expensive.
The girls were only in there for 4 months and they were very careful about taking care of everything, no carpet stains, not putting holes in walls etc., and the place was in perfect shape when they moved out, cleaned, touched up etc.
However when it came time to get back the deposit, they found ways to charge a fee for painting, sanitizing, carpet, and some small other fees, that basically ate up almost the whole deposit amount!
And when I called them on it, the response was so snooty and matter of fact — bad.
Really left us a sour taste, and burned us as customers. I would never recommend anyone to rent at Windsor at Main.

Awesome place to live, leasing staff and maintenance are the best, met great friends here too.

Wow the girl that was working right now was reaaallllyyy rude … Walked in thinking hey I’m gona transfer from where I’m living now to this property. Yea she didn’t even give me the time of day …

The amenities are nice, office staff is reasonable most of the time and maintenance requests were competed timely. The whole top level of the parking structure is for guest parking so there is plenty of parking spaces for having people over.
The negatives I have with this place are we had an issue with bugs (small bugs and cockroaches) in our apartment. We would get them around every 2 months. The first time we got them the apartment office told us to keep it so maintenance could verify it was a cockroach. Gross! We put it in a plastic bag but it was still gross we were catching cockroaches as evidence. The apartment would send someone out to bug spray the apartment after each complaint but they never seemed proactive in the problem. I never saw or got noticed that they were spraying around the apartment like I did in other apartments.
Also, the hallways can get a little dirty. We had a neighbor who let their dog pee and poop in the hallways. One time it was in front of our door and it smelled like pee for a month.

I lived here with my husband for one year, it was the first apartment we rented together. The place is pretty much clean, the staff is absolutely great, especially Santina, the sweetest yet professional person I’ve ever seen in a residential management office.
Maintenance guys are also great, parking was never a problem, including guest parking, neighbors quiet, and we felt safe living there. The only things that are not great about the place is the air quality and noise, both coming from the high traffic in the area.
Oh and very important, when we moved out we got most of our deposit back IN TIME.

I came here sometime ago to look at getting an apartment I’m sure glad I never went through with that one this complex is a little too busy for me if you know what I mean way too much traffic it reminded me of a college apartments if you’re looking for a place to go party you found the spot if you’re looking for a place to call home keep looking

Luxury at its worst…
If you like loud neighbors, obnoxious-​over-​privileged-​entitled-​college-​kids getting drunk and screaming all night long, this is the place for you!
This has to be one of those unreasonably priced «luxury» complexes in Orange County. It’s right on the border of the ghettos of Santa Ana, and near a crappy mall. Parking is first come-​first serve, and permits are never enforced. So when the pricks on your floor have a party, all their shitty friends will park and take up all the spaces.
The pool is always dirty.
The power grid in the complex sucks and is constantly experiencing outages.
Rude staff, horrible security.
They have these poorly executed «community» events. If you live pool side near the club house, forget shutting out the horribly loud music they play. And when you send a polite email asking them to maybe keep the music from rattling your windows, they send you an empty «we’re sorry, but fuck you. Why? because fuck you, that’s why».
The maintenance staff is pretty cool. They were quick to fix the numerous broken utilities, and appliances that broke under minimal use or strain.
People with pets never clean up after themselves, and people with kids let their offspring run rampant.
Twice I had to call the police to quiet the cocaine fueled conversations on the neighboring balconies at 4 in the morning.
Not to mention the drug dealers that happen to slip by the access gate… who always knocked on my door looking for the idiots next door. So if you like ecstasy and molly delivered to your apartment, sure, this place has it! Bonus perk I guess.

We’ve lived here for two months and everything so far as met or exceeded our expectations:
– Either I have completely silent neighbors or or this place has amazingly thick walls (probably the latter…) — I barely ever hear anything from my neighbors.
– Parking is always available for ourselves and guests (this was a concern with some of the other places we looked at)
– All staff (maintenance and leasing) have addressed any of our needs incredibly efficiently and respectfully (dishwasher leaked a bit when we first moved in but was fixed in a day, a piece of the blinds unit came off and was replaced in a day, etc.)
– Actual unit is in great condition
– Pool and Hot tubs are cleaned regularly
– They gym, hot tubs, and grills are great amenities!
– We love the amount of space on our patio
– While our unit does face the inside of the complex (some units face toward the highway), we never hear traffic from our room.
The only thing I could knock them on is trash being left outside of the occasional tenant’s door, or oversized trash being left out in the hallway, but this is more the fault of disrespectful tenants than anything else.
The only reason we would leave this place is to live somewhere closer to the beach. We love it here!

The worst place we’ve ever lived. It’s amazing how many maintenance issues we’ve had in only four months of living here.
They even entered our apartment without warning when my fiancé was just getting out of the shower.
There is nothing luxury about this complex, so don’t fall victim.
Management offered us what they call ”a customer service gesture” …Really? They invade our privacy and make us feel uncomfortable in our own place, and they offer a gesture by cutting the lease termination fee in half.
We’ve caused you so much trouble, and we’re willing to only make you pay 900 dollars on top of your normal rent, to move out of the apartment that we are responsible for maintaining.
From the regional vice president, himself.
”A TOTAL COMMITMENT TO BETTER LIVING.”
^^^^This is their motto^^^^
Completely unbecoming.
The most unprofessional business practices we’ve ever encountered.

I have lived here since 2013 and the only reason why im leaving is because its way too expensive. Rates keep going up and just found another apt for cheaper. This place is wonderful. The staff is very polite and professional. Maintenance is on point. The structure is high and tall and very beautiful. Parking is great and security is on patrol at night to check your cars.

Nice place to live.

I dislike wasting anytime writing a review on this place but this place is horrible. Just read the other one star reviews; poor management, rude staff, horrible security, changing apartment rules during lease term, and yes huge rate hikes.

STOP CHANGING THE RULES. Reasonable accommodation bull shit. your managment company blows, as do your employees. One person says yes, another says no. I HAVE A COMPANION ANIMAL, WITCH TECHNICALLY IS NOT A DOG ANY MORE. Screw this place

This Complex is still horrible, we finally just moved because we could not handle all the conditions, neighbors, rent hikes, noise and unsanitary conditions. Most off the staff is completely rude. My last review still stands I would never recommend this place to anyone!

Great staff, and the complex is amazing :)

Gated community, private parking garage (very nicely lit and maintained), washer/​dryer inside unit.
Other things: quiet (no screaming babies, barking dogs, etc), amenities (2 pools 2 jacuzzis, gym, racquetball court, etc), friendly front office, large guest parking, fast repair services (our washer broke, got a new one within 1 day), and walk ability is ridiculous (Westfield mall, barnes and noble, mothers market, pinkberry, Starbucks, jamba juice, the habit… on and on).
Wants: turn the indoor racquetball court into a half court basketball court! Lower my rent?

It’s expensive to live here, but you do get what you pay for.
The gym is never crowded when I go, so I basically have a «free» gym pass for a gym that feels like it’s all mine.
I get to do my own laundry in my own home. None of this «walking across an apt. complex to do laundry just to have it stolen» business!
Pool + barbecues.
Neighbors who actually appear to be productive members of society with good jobs (or rich college kids – yes, I’m talking about you, Chapman students). My husband has lived in apartment complexes that have had less than savory people living there… I really hated visiting those places!
The only problems I have are with the kitchens in the apartments. As someone who LOVES to cook and eat, there is VERY limited cabinet space, counter space, and no pantry! It’s hard having a coffee maker and toaster take up most of the counter space, but thankfully the units come with microwaves above the stoves so that really helps with space issues.
Aside from those problems, I really do love living here, but I cannot wait to own my own home!

This place has so much potential but falls very short– mainly because it gets so dirty. And it’s obvious but management needs to be more detailed and pay attention to this. The trash needs to get picked up more and the sidewalks need to be power washed way more because it’s soooooooo gross. And the fly situation is pretty unbearable. I don’t know how you turn a blind eye to all of it.
Location makes up for the nonsense and makes it bearable. Centrally located, great dining and shops across the street. Apartment amenities are great too– bbq, hammocks, club house, pools, gym, appliances, in house washer/​dryer, etc. If they would clean up this place– it would be amazing.

Now called Windsor, this complex of apartments could be mistaken for a resort hotel.
Pool, jacuzzi, hammock, newly remodeled fitness center open 24 hours a day, impressive exterior, high floors, spacious units.
A client of mine lives here and I come here 2 – 3 times a week to train with her. The first time I drove into the gated complex and walked through the common pool area, I was very impressed. It felt like an extended stay 4 star resort.
Even the leasing office looks like the lobby of a Hyatt Regency.
A bit pricey (about $ 1,800+ for rent for a 2 bedroom) but if one were so inclined both aesthetically and financially, I’d say go for it.
