I've been here 15 years...

I just happened to look at the reviews and saw one that mentioned roaches. In the 15 years and 2 different apartments I've had here, I've NEVER seen one roach! Just wanted to clear that up. The reason I've been here 15 years is because I love this place! I've never had any issues with staff. They keep it clean. When something breaks, they fix it. Everything here is fair except for the views. The views are AMAZING! South Shore Beach Apartments is a rare jewel!

Its worth every investment

I love South Shore Beach apartments you have your own personal beach 24hr door man and workout center. The staff is nice and if anything is broke they have 24hr maintenance I recommend this for any apt buyer. They have parking for purchase which is much needed in the South Shore Drive area indoor and outdoor. The laundromat is good I have no complaints about SSBA it's like owning a piece of your own heaven here ????

Utterly Unsafe

Unsafe building, don't be fooled. Extremely lax security. Unconcerned office management. Doors (with locks, but still) hanging/sitting wide open for whomever to enter. Garage door up/wide open for hours and hours, sometimes all weekend long, anyone can just walk in & steal or hide. No privacy, staff constantly gossiping about tenants. Very busy lobby, lots of loitering, foul language and unsavory characters. No one regulates. Cars are not safe in overpriced outdoor parking spaces, windows… busted, flat tires, parts missing. No security walks in lots. Washing machines & dryers old and always broken. Especially a bad place for women, very unsafe for women. If you want to feel safe, this is not the place. Bed bugs notice going around recently. Don't let Celeste fool you, she just wants her cut of the money.
