Boardwalk at Alafaya Trail

Compared to everywhere else, this complex is severely lacking. I lived there two years and my dryer never worked, took 3-4 times for one medium sized load, my roommates and I ended up hanging up lots of stuff to dry, dishwasher never worked, just splashed your dishes with gross water and the soap wouldn’t even get washed off, sink was broken so often We had a plunger in the kitchen. Basically no appliances worked well and when maintenance did come around, they’d barely help, leaving it all... broken still and say they’ll put in an order. My roommates and I called the office every month to fix our dryer and it was never fixed. But don’t worry, you’ll definitely get overages every month! My roommates were all seniors and one fall for two months they all went back home and I was hardly there and kept the a/c off cause the winter was cold enough I didn’t need it, and still! 14 dollar overages for everyone! The amenities suck, the “hot tub” is a lukewarm pit that is always full of soggy leaves and half dead bugs. If you ever wanted to feel like Shrek in his swamp, try boardwalk! Also your fridge, pantry, and bedroom closets are horribly small.
Some furniture has been replaced recently, some off it looks like goodwill has better stuff. The carpet and “wood” floors are old, stained, and falling apart. The water pressure in the shower is weak and for two months I didn’t have hot water in the shower even though I told them on move in, ended up googling how to fix it myself and bought some tools from Home Depot.


Pros: the pool ( not the hot tub ) is kinda nice, close to campus, quiet.
Cons: literally everything else! Read More

I moved here on a whim without visiting or anything first! I have enjoyed my time here! The apartments are good and fully furnished. It's not brand new or anything but they try to keep it updated and maintained. We have brand new wood flooring in the main area. The maintenance guys are quick to help and friendly, haven't had any issues besides a fix for the toilet once. I love how close it is to campus and shopping. Target and everything else is just down the road. I think it's a great place for... anyone coming to UCF! Read More

These apartments have the largest bedrooms, each with a queen bed and your own bathroom. It's also one of the safest communities to live in. There is a free shuttle bus to UCF.

I lived at boardwalk upwards of four years. I've had some great roommates and some horrible roommates. Ones that barked and howled throughout the day. And some that quietly studied in their rooms. It doesn't matter what group of roommates it is however one thing remains the same. The ungodly amount of hidden fees that they charge you and claim is fair. I had to change rooms at this apartment complex twice. Each time I had to be charged move out fees for something that was broken before I was... moved in. This is because management hates to look at their own move in inspection sheets. Not only this, most roommates that I have had got overages every month due to the set electric being way too low. Do you have a gaming console or a computer? Be prepared to have an coverage of TEN dollars a month per person. Im sorry if it sounds like I am ranting here, but they just hit me with a move out bill two months after i moved out for items that were on my move in inspection sheet and all they did was claim that it couldn't be helped because it went to collections already. I enjoyed my time here, but it was through veiled glasses. In total over the time that I've lived at this apartment. They have probably overcharged me in the area of 500-600 dollars. Remember folks, cheap is cheap for a reason. Read More

Boardwalk was great tbh. I only moved out because I wanted to live with new friends in their house. The office was always super friendly and helpful. Maintenance got everything done sooo quickly. The rooms are HUGE compared to any other apartment complex. All the bad reviews are old and are mad at Boardwalk for things beyond their control. Definitely would recommend.
