Avalon Vista

Our stay at Avalon Vista was nothing short of exceptional. The amenities were great and always clean! Never had any issues with the staff, always accessible and kind. Unfortunately we had to leave due to a roommate change but I highly recommend Avalon Vista for your apartment needs! I think the thing I will miss the most is Eileen and Jordan up at the front. Always so professional and welcoming, thank you Avalon!

I wanted to get a shout out about one of our newer faces Chris, two thumbs up. Fantastic worker and attitude, the complex has never looked better. Whomever hired Chris fine piece of work keep it up. I also would like to compliment the work ethics of Amina, Amina if I didn’t spell that correctly please forgive me, always top notch. Thank you both for your services.

Been a residence since they opened their doors. Great community and great service. I haven’t had any problems with service request or anything of the nature. Jordan and Eileen (theres someone else) are super helpful when it comes to questions and also putting together activities for the community. Almost has a college feel without the parties and drama.

I love living here! They really do make life effortless and easy. The ladies that work the front desk are really friendly and helpful. The apartments are well laid out and there is plenty of room in the neighborhood to hang out and enjoy your time off. Come check them out!
P. S.: Shout out to Eileen and Jordan for accommodating my household’s complicated parking situation.

I came by the office this past Sunday and the office was closed. However I met the maintenance guy Jr and he was able to give me enough information to make me want to come back during business hours to take a tour.

I just want to say for being a single woman and picking up everything to move to California, I have been nothing but happy since I’ve moved into Avolon Vista. Everybody has been so helpful to me and making me feel at home. I had an issues with my dishwasher not working properly and as soon as I put the work order in the maintenance guy Jr was there to fix it. He didn’t find anything wrong with it he just had to move the silverware basket out of the way of the soap thingy and now it works great.

The service that this community has provided is nothing short of outstanding. I’ve had zero issues while living in this community. The overall staff is excellent and you really get what you pay for.
Some notable features include:
1. An outstanding grilling area that gets cleaned daily
2. The pool area is luxurious, relaxing and spotless
3. The community as a whole is respectful
4. The staff — from the leasing office to the maintenance crew is professional, friendly and accommodating.
Highly recommended

I just moved in a week ago, & so far there’s not a lot to be impressed with. If you are looking to move into a community where the neighbors are loud, the parking is undesirable & your neighbors leave their tv’s out in front of their doorways this is the place for you! Upon moving in our heat & AC don’t work… why do they advertise central air as an amenity when it doesn’t work? I shouldn’t have to put in a maintenance request during my first week here.
Staff? They «hear» you, however they don’t take action. One week here & I already regret signing my lease. Moving is stressful enough, living in a subpar community makes it worse.
Read the other reviews, they speak for themselves. Don’t be fooled by the allure of a «pretty» complex when you take a tour to consider moving in.

I have been a resident of Avalon Vista from Jun 2015 until Jan 2016 and it is extremely well managed by the office and maintenance staff.
The apartment complex has many amenities that I have actually been unable to take advantage of due to my long hours at work, such as a small workout center, pool, barbecue areas and a lounge (with a pool table and shuffleboard).
The amenities I have been able to take advantage of is the amenities they include for dog owners. They have a small dog area as well as a multitude of dog bags/​disposal station around the apartment, and the apartment complex is very dog friendly.
However, overall the reason for the 5 star rating is the amazing staff at the front office. Both Eileen and Jordan have been tremendous in their duties and constantly go above and beyond to help me as a tenant.

Wonderful apartment layout accommodating for families. Good place for children. Practical usage of space very unique and beautiful design.

We moved into Avalon Vista only a few months ago and in these few months I’ve been nothing but impressed. This place is BEAUTIFUL.
For me, is the efficiency and attentiveness of the staff is what first drew me in. The only «problem» we’ve ever had was our ice machine not working. This was before we even moved in. We told Eileen about it and she notified maintenance immediately and the very next day Israel came by and BAM fixed! On the occasions I do walk through the front office everyone in there always says hi. It truly is a community here and that is what I love the most.
Other pros:
1) My apartment is the bomb. I live with two other people and never do I feel like I don’t have enough space. The kitchen is what sold me (Gas stovetops?! Yes please). Lastly the finishes, from flooring to the quartz countertops, you can tell everything is top notch.
2) Online rent payments (super convenient when you have roommates!)
3) Fitness center. So beautiful and is always clean. Not to mention PERFECTLY AIR CONDITIONED.
4) PARKING. There’s always parking and it’s the best thing ever.
5) BBQ and pool areas. Grills on grills on grills.
6) Pet friendly. I don’t have a dog, but LOVE them, and love seeing all the dogs around here! (Stalker much? Haha)
Cons:
1) NONE.
Thank you ALL at Avalon Vista. Looking forward to living here for a long time.

I’m relieved that honest reviews are finally being written! I’ve been wanting to write a review for a long time but feared retribution since Avalon Vista is UNFORTUNATELY my home. Also, I have addressed my issues/​concerns with staff numerous times re the noise, but I don’t get results, so I have resorted to writing this review.
If you like your sleep, use of a commode or your sanity… DO NOT MOVE HERE! I’ve been a resident since May 2015 and I don’t even know where to begin about the nightmare of living at Avalon Vista. So let’s start from the beginning.
The complex is subject to several construction defects, specifically with the plumbing.
My first couple of months here my guest toilet was clogging and overflowing on a regular basis. The staff, specifically the head maintenance person Brian, blamed me and my kids for the toilets overflowing and clogging. He said we put baby wipes, hair and tampons down the toilet. Which wasn’t true because it’s been at least a decade since I bought baby wipes and the color hair he showed me is not the same color as my daughters hair. The problem continually occurred, the toilets kept filling up with bubbles and overflowing (see pics). The staff told me if I continued flushing things I wasn’t supposed to down the toilet, that I would be charged for it. Maintenance staff was constantly in my apartment unclogging toilets and the problem persisted even though my kids and I didn’t do anything to provoke the situation. I was going on vacation and I specifically asked the Brian «Should we turn off the water so the toilet doesn’t overflow while I’m on vacation?» And in a cocky tone he told me it wouldn’t be necessary since I wouldn’t be there doing anything to clog it. Sure enough, a few days into my vacation I get a phone call at midnight from Israel saying that my entire apartment has been flooded. To be specific two bedrooms, the kitchen, the bathroom, the laundry room and the hallway. On top of it my cat was home alone terrified during this whole ordeal and walking through black sewer water! And the poor neighbors below where the ones who found out that my apartment flooded because water was seeping through their electrical outlets. Both apartments had extensive damage. My home was destroyed! (SEE PICS OF BLACK SEWER WATER DAMAGE AND THE DRYWALL THAT WAS RIPPED OUT OF MY APARTMENT.) Avalon put me up in a hotel and hired movers, but it will still a HUGE burden to do two moves within a couple of months. Many of my personal items were damaged but to Avalon’s defense they did replace most of my damaged items. So here is the kicker… IT WAS A CONSTRUCTION DEFECT that was causing the problem. During construction, there was a small pipe that a worker accidentally dropped into the main sewer pipe which was backing up the toilets. So after being accused of clogging toilets, I was really pissed. Even though they hired movers, I was on disability and had to unpack my entire apartment by myself. I asked Eileen at the front office if they would unpack me and she was absolutely opposed.
So now I’m in a different apartment and my toilet in this apartment didn’t work for a month… I don’t know what the problem was this time but Israel fixed it in a timely manner. I honestly have never had staff or maintenance enter my home so much, at any place I’ve ever lived. If you value your privacy, this is not the place for you.
Lisa P.‘s review was spot on accurate about the noise and the complex being more like a college frat house. I would not recommend Avalon for families– often times there are drunks and girls running around in g-​strings at the pool.
The apartment looks pretty and fancy on the outside but were poorly built with lack of good insulation in the walls. The walls are paper thin. You can hear your neighbors every footstep, every word, every door slam, their TV’s etc. I lose countless hours of sleep and have to take sleeping medication to live here. The lack of sleep from the noise has truly affected our quality of life. My daughter, a student, has difficulty sleeping and even doing her homework from disruptions (she gets a lot of noise from people walking up and down the stairs). It has affected her grades. Since I’ve lived here I have probably addressed the noise issue at least 10 times with the front office. The front office tells me that they have made contact with the noisy neighbors but it quiets down for a short time, then goes back to what sounds like is a circus going on upstairs. Even my 10 year old asks to move!
My more courteous, respectful, and quieter neighbors are miserable from the noise too. In fact, one neighbor told me that she specifically asked when deciding to move in, if it was a noisy complex, and Avalon told her NO. Another neighbor of mine just moved after living there for 2 months because of the noise.
In conclusion, Avalon Vista is OVERPRICED, OVERRATED and a horrible place to live!

I’ll be Damned for waiting (or rather forgetting) to write a review for Avalon. Right from the time my fiancée and I moved here, it’s been pretty nice
Virtues:
1. The leasing staff — Eileen (showed us the available apartments), Jordan (who is also my neighbor.Howdy.!) and Hannah (just recently met her). These guys are immensely self motivated and every time I’ve had any issue with the apartment have made sure it was taken care of
2. An online payment portal for monthly payment and maintenance requests (usually done in 1 – 2 days)
3. The pool area and grill. It’s gorgeous
4. Proximity to the CA-​78
5. The community itself is socially responsible too with community helping/​food collection initiatives
6. Referral credits
Possible problem
1. Some people may find the rent pricey
2. A stone throws away from a detention facility!!! Found out much later!!! No issues so far though!!!
We LOVE it at Avalon and you should come check it out

I just recently moved in and while I would normally wait some time to post a review. This place has far exceeded my expectations. I have to give kudos to Jordan and Elieen but most importantly Hannah. She worked with me and I feel she went above and beyond to ensure that my first home in San Diego was the right fit for me.
I was truly impressed by the finishes and the value for the dollar but what officially sold me was the fact that Hannah allowed me to stand in a second floor unit while she went to the third floor to allow me to gauge how the sound filtered throughout the stacked apartments. While it was an acceptable level considering all units come with gorgeous hard wood floors the fact that she addressed my concern head on and went that extra mile to ensure my satisfaction really cemented my decision.
I really suggest you visit this complex and make it your home. All the ladies have been exceptional to me but Hannah stands out for her 5 star quality approach thereby making me feel with absolute certainty that Avalon Vista is indeed home.

Avalon has been such a wonderful place to live. They have such amazing staff in the office that are great with any issues we’ve come across. And the amenities are luxurious. It’s nice to see such a upscale, clean community here.

So an update on the community: construction is near finished. Major headaches have been alarms going off in the middle of the night throughout the neighborhood. Most have been resolved. If your window is near the clubhouse tvs or a grill, be sure to know what you’re getting into. There’s a sound and pool curfew at 10pm, but the tvs are often left on and can be loud. Maintenance response to AC leaks and stuff are reasonable. Outdoor grills are good but sometimes have gas issues (very minimal). Over the past couple of months, there’s been constant letters saying they will access your apartment or garage. So far nothing has been stolen so (knock on wood) that’s been fine. Neighbors are as nice as they like to be in person, but complaints seem to run rampant. Good luck if you find out who filed something against you, but for the most part, Avalon have been good moderators.

Recently moved into Avalon Vista and couldn’t be happier. Fantastic place to live with the apartments being spacious with top quality finishings.
The communal areas and swimming pool resemble a top class holiday resort.
All the staff are very friendly and helpful. We had a small issue with a kitchen appliance which was dealt with within the same day.
Would thoroughly recommend Avalon Vista apartments to all prospective families, couples and individuals looking to find a new place to live.

I just moved in a little over a week ago, the staff and management are so attentive and helpful. I love the facilities and how clean the complex is. I had a real hard choice to make between all the different floor plans but finally settled on one of the town homes.
One of the biggest reasons I moved here, over and above I love Vista is that I can walk to several places to eat, the pharmacy and the farmers market next door on Saturdays. The complex is very pet friendly too.
The maintenance crew is super!
If your thinking of moving definitely check this complex out, Vista has really been missing higher end apartment community.

I have only lived in my new unit for about a week or so but so far the staff has been helpful and friendly. The neighbors seem to be happy and friendly so far. The construction is supposed to be done around July or August i believe. Even with the construction, things have been as peaceful as they can be.
One thing to be cautious about is that when you move in and order someone to connect some internet. You need to be sure and use the references they give you on the white sheet of paper when you move in. Also be sure and mention it is a new community!
Those phone numbers are not just for your convenience. I made the mistake of thinking i could simply call Cox or AT&T and have just any technician come set up my internet. It needs to be the specific person from that white sheet because they are trained to install equipment into this new community. Hopefully over time the companies will train more technicians, but for now it needs to be a specific person.
Also, we currently need to get our mail through the leasing office until a mail carrier will add our new community to their route. Its not a big deal, the leasing office emails me when i have mail, but it is something worth mentioning.

I LOVE LIVING HERE!
I don’t think the photos they have online do Avalon Vista justice. They really did a great job with the layouts and finishes, and the units have such big windows so there’s lots of light. One of the big draws for me to move here was the salt water pool and spa… and of course the cabanas. I feel like I live at a high end resort!
The gals in the leasing and management office are awesome. They are all so down to earth. I never sense any type of pretension. Anytime I’ve had anything come up with my move in or in my unit, it’s been addressed super fast.
I was living in Cardiff, on the coast, and was a little concerned about moving inland, but I’ve found that it only takes me 10 minutes to get to the coast. The town of Vista is really cute, too. They’ve really done a great job fixing the town of Vista up. There’s also an adorable Farmer’s Market right next door at the courthouse parking lot. My daughter and I enjoy walking over there on Saturdays.
I should mention that there is still construction going on in the complex as they finish the other buildings, but it hasn’t been a big deal for us personally. I feel like it’s worth it to to deal with a little extra noise to get in early and get the unit that we really wanted.
I’ve been very happy with my experience here so far!
