210 Watermark

When my wife and I were selling the boat we were living on we started to look for an apartment. We took a tour at the Watermark apartments. During the tour we were told about a special they had for a free months rent. To get the special we needed to fill out an application which also had a fee. We told the rental representative that our renting was dependent upon the sale of our boat. We were told that was fine but the special only lasted a few days. We said that was fine and filled out... the application. Afterwards we got several phone calls saying that the special was about to expire. Since the boat didn’t sell I personally went to the Watermark and told them we were not going to be able to rent the apartment. Fast forward two months and I get a call from a collection agent saying I owed $250.00 for the rental agreement. Come to find out if you are approved you are charged you are automatically charged for the rental agreement. Lee mas

I enjoyed my stay. I have had no complaints. If I needed maintenance they came in a reasonable time frame. I had packages accepted by the front office with no issues which made life a bit more convenient. All in all my stay was peaceful. In particular, I would like to give mention to those who were very helpful. Deborah & Savannah in the office. Justin & Drew on the maintenance team so respectful and attentive to any issues over the past 3 years or more. Bravo!!

We've been here since August 2017 and are most impressed with being able to go out to eat every night of the week and never get in a car or go to the same place twice. For the price comparison to other options within walking distance of downtown Bradenton and the RiverWalk nothing competes with what you get for the money at Watermark! Like anyplace else, there are pros and cons, but we are happy with the staff and their response to our needs. Walk and watch the sunset or sunrise on the water... (best from May to September), grab a happy hour drink and enjoy dinner then head home. Good stuff. Lee mas

Absolutely awful management when applying. They were not clear about move in expectations from the beginning, and took almost a full week to even get back to me about my application, even when I applied for a place available right then. I had to call and left a message to ask about my application. She just started running my things when I called days later. They told me to get FPL and Renters Insurance ready and THEN denied me. They should have been upfront from the beginning on how long their... process took and their wording in the application is sketchy. They even had to reread it themselves and put me on hold when I questioned it. I was packed, ready to move and then had to cancel with multiple companies to transfer accounts. After speaking to 3 different people in the office who all told me different things, I decided I was done and applied somewhere else. Lee mas

They have some kind of shady business agreement with a towing company here and they will tow resident's cars that pay rent here.
