Sandpiper Apartments

I've lived here since 2022, and the quality of the apartment and management has gone downhill while the price keeps going up. Rent is raised annually by the maximum legal amount, and they’ve recently started charging for utilities and an additional $50 per pet each month.

The maintenance team was reduced from three workers to two, which has made response times slower. On top of that, the property has ongoing issues with termites, fleas, and serious plumbing problems that go unresolved for long... periods. Seriously, we’ve had plumbing turned off about 3-5 times this year, and we were some of the least affected apartments.

Despite marketing itself as a “luxury” apartment complex, there’s nothing luxurious about it. There are very limited amenities to speak of—$2.50 to wash/dry a standard load of laundry at the laundry rooms, no gym or air conditioning (only heating is provided, which is odd considering we're in California). The listing claims there’s high-speed internet and a playground, but residents have to purchase their own internet, and the so-called "playground" is just two medium-sized patches of grass that are mostly used as pet relief areas. Also, I wouldn’t consider the backyards as large at all. We reported these inaccuracies to Apartments.com.

It feels like management is trying to rebrand this place as high-end without putting in the work or investment to actually improve it. Overall, it's not worth the price for what you get.

I have lived here since 2020. Living here was AMAZING from 2020-2023. It started going down hill when they got their new management in 2024. Before, there was tons of parking but now, the new management doesn't enforce cars parking inside the gates without stickers. So, if you work late at night and have more than 1 car, good luck finding parking inside. They also keep raising the rent prices and now they charge utilities but they don't upgrade anything. There are no washer/dryers inside the... actual units but they want to start charging for water in the utility bill. Laundry rooms are dirty and they never get deep cleaned. It just feels dirtier living here. There are fleas and termites everywhere. Our water will get shut off randomly and sometimes at night the hot water will not work. We have gone 3 consecutive days without hot water at NIGHT in the WINTER. When you call with any problems you just get, "oh sorry" but that's it. There is mold under the painted walls and cabinets because of the water issues. Our kitchen sink will clog every other month and this started not even into 1 week of moving into here. I miss the old management, Melissa and Ginger. (Was not a fan of Autumn). Would be worth it, if they cleaned up, enforced parking, and kept the rent prices the same.
They are strict about the no smoking rule which I greatly appreciate! Lee mas

I've lived here for three years and management was amazing Autumm and Ginger were the best! Always super nice and made everything so easy, everything got resolved and always kept you informed by calling and following up. New management is very dull and makes you feel like everything is a chore, no call backs or follow ups. Place is kept clean and neighbors are really nice but depends on what area of the complex you live. Parking is assigned so no one will be parking in your spots, plenty of... parking outside, always free. Poop bags available for pets and super pet friendly. Lee mas

The new management is a joke. When I lived here the water and electricity would be shut off without notice. “Controlled access” except the gates are always broken and random homeless people would be wandering around at night. Small laundry rooms that are expensive to use, You get a heated pool maybe 3 months out of the year. The rent goes up and up but they do nothing to upgrade the property. Hope you like fleas and termites because this place has plenty. Do not live here!

They sent me an eviction without verifying... Claimed I was harming dogs and waited 9 days to tell me there's a problem to stop! They have on site management daily til 6pm. Flat out lies about what I said on video.
