The Pearl Founders Square Apartments

We have loved living at the Pearl. The apartments are beautiful with appealing finishes and nice, large spaces. The open floor plan and nice sized kitchen have been wonderful for our family and also for entertaining.

With two pools, a demo kitchen, a fantastic gym, yoga room, coffee bar, and more, the amenities are to die for. The maintenance engineers are also very talented and responsive. Any issues we had were addressed very promptly.

You will love living at the Pearl.

The complex if well maintained when there is a maintenance issue it is well handled. Management seems to keep communication between tenants and staff constantly. We have been here for 4 months and enjoy what The Pearl has to offer

The Pearl has gone way downhill. The place is completely disgusting with trash and dog poop everywhere. As one of the few apartment complexes that is tolerant of all sizes and breeds of dogs, it is a magnet for misbehaved dogs and the type of people who own such dogs. Recently someone threw up in an elevator (indicative of the type of people who live here now) and the cleaning staff put forth a half hearted effort of cleaning it (who can blame them...) so the elevator still reeks to the point of... being unusable. There is no security to the premises so all manner of activities go on including random detailing companies commandeering entire sections of the parking lot and random work vans using the area as free parking. I no longer feel safe parking my car outside the building. The low hygiene of the area has aggravated bug and rodent issues. My spotless apartment has an infestation of silver fish.

Besides the mismanagement of the property, The Pearl lured people in with the promise of amenities and then ratcheted those amenities back over the course of the past year. They initially tried to charge for amenities that were included within leases and then sent a laughable email about the proposed charges being a "communication mistake". This is extremely unethical business behavior, as tenants such as myself paid a premium relative to market rate for standard condos in the area for those amenities and are now not receiving any value for them.

I just renewed my lease and I am starting to regret doing so.
Management is not what it used to be. Anna (previous manager) was great, easy to talk to, always willing to help, always one step ahead of residents needs.
Since management changed, nothing is the same. Landscaping looks really bad, they only fix around the pool or in the main building. no security around the pool or common areas, anyone can enter.
I was said they were measures being taken and that was the reason for my renewal, I... am starting to doubt that.
Unless management changes again, look somewhere else. Read More

They changed management companies and since this has happened this place has turned into a DUMP. Dog poop on the sidewalks, weeks later hasn’t been cleaned. Gym equipment is always broken, coffee machine is disgustingly dirty. On top of all of this I’m $500 more per month than any apartment complex in Naples. Do yourself a favor and rent anywhere else but here.
