Recently bought a 3 bedroom unit in this building, and I am so happy with this property. There have been and continue to be major upgrades to the property and the management. The clubhouse - pool area and gym have come out great, and I use them regularly. The association meetings are held in the new clubhouse, and there have been no issues with space, and comfort. They even added a pool table, albeit some of the sticks look slightly abused. I suppose that means that people are actual playing and using them; good sense of community. There have been some recent rules for the community though, which may cause concern for people who don't follow rules, but for those of us who do, it's a welcome enhancement. We recently made the change to enforce no dogs over 40LBS, and all dogs must be registered and have a dna sample on fine. This is going to help stop the pet owners who don't clean up after their dogs. Fines will be issued to the unit owners who have irresponsible renters. I'm not sure this will stop the abusers, but it's a good start. Also having dogs off their leash will a fineable issue. We have too many kids running around and to have dogs potentially biting or attacking, even if they're "friendly" should be discontinued. We don't have a lobby per se, so our mail rooms house regular mail boxes, and a great Luxer One lock box large package retrieval system. I love this thing, and have had no issues to date. Sends a personalized text to the recipient when their package arrives with a code to open the box. So much better than leaving a box in the elements, or at a busy front desk. Parking is a little expensive, and I'm not entirely sure why we decided to go with a contract parking company, but I'm sure as our association grows this will be changed. As for now, I love seeing offenders of the system towed. It's about time; nothing worse than coming home and someone illegally parked in your designated spot. I wasn't sure the management would do it, and after a complaint we finally got some enforcement. I'm sure it hurts the people who get towed, but don't park illegally, and you won't get towed right. I am really looking forward to living here while the entire area goes through a major facelift. The developers behind the Fontainebleau, Aventura Mall, and Turnberry Isle have bought a huge stake in the land around us and are creating what will be named "Uptown Miami" including 9 luxury high rises dubbed Sole Mia. I assume there will be quite a lot of dust stirred up for the next couple of years, but the dust will disappear, and the city will come to know what will sure to be a winning community. I'm glad we bought in now before the property values increase beyond what would have been our budget. Plus where would you find an east facing view with 2,000 square feet in Miami for under $500,000? read more

Low care for residents, pets smell through the property and the elevators are always out of service

I had a pretty bad experience trying to rent an apartment, starting with the never ending and confusing application, the not so great customer service at Manager's office ( not very friendly people) to the parking attendant. Got a much better apartment, with better view ,in a friendlier and healthier environment. read more

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR A DO NOT MOVE IN HERE. The management office or HOA board is an absolutely garbage. It has taken me 3 weeks to move A MATTRESS out of my apartment just because the guys come in a big truck. The do not want to help you, they will do what's easier for them. No common sense. It's like talking to a computer. I need to reserve an elevator to move a mattress a week ahead when I don't know the specific hour the pick up people would be here. (they let you know the day before since it's to pick up an item). It's a mattress, where two people can easily move it without damaging anything, in 5 min max. They also have cameras everywhere so it's not like I'm doing anything illegal as saying I'm moving a mattress and Im moving my entire apt into the truck! So frustrating, will be moving out asap. read more

The WORST association I have ever seen. 1) They didn't let my movers come in because they were 30min late. As a result, didn't have any of my things for a WEEK--which was supposedly the earliest I could move in. 2) Didn't have A/C for 10 days because they didn't allow the A/C guy to come and replace it. They gave him hell. He confirmed they were the worst HOA he had ever seen. 3) They don't allow use of any amenities without a mask. EVEN IF YOU HAVE ASTHMA OR OTHER HEALTH CONDITION.

The new management and parking company is disappointing at this community. I've lived here for 4 years. The building just recently had a new gym and pool built (no jacuzzi). The elevators are always out of service. The new security does not call units anymore for guests, they just allow anyone in. Packages get stolen from front doors even when you're on a list to have all packages delivered to office. This community does not have security cameras anywhere on any floor, only in elevators, the elevator fob allows you to get off any floor, there is no security in a lobby, there is no lobby at all.. Only a mail room. There was no parking payments here or valet prior to a few months ago, out of no where the condominium board decided to bring in Park 1 Valet which charges $65 a month for a 2nd unassigned spot (5th floor) and $125 for a assigned spot. Valet is $5 6am-1am and $15 1am-6am... that is very high for a building that is not considered a luxury condominiums. I contacted the office to register a 2nd vehicle on the 29th and 30th of October. I wanted to begin on the 1st of November, I was told that there was a $65 spot available. I asked to secure the spot for the 1st and they said they can only register the car that same day (29th) because its first come first serve and I would have to pay for the full month of October because they DO NOT prorate! (I would've had to pay $65 for only 2 days of parking).. which seems very unfair. They said I could come in on the 31st and try to register it then. Coincidently, when I came in on the 31st the spot was already taken. The property manager Rudy clearly said on the phone when I asked if the $65 spot was still available and he said YES, but in person was he changed his story and actually denied that he ever said there was a $65 spot available but he apologized for any "miscommunication" and his demeanor came off arrogant and Condescending. Saying he's not going to go back and forth with me. Btw He said on the phone, if I don't like the new changes to consider moving???? Ummmmm ok My "only option" was to register and pay $125 for a assigned spot which is only 1 floor down on the 4th. I said I would rather not park at the community and just be on a waiting list for a $65 spot to open up, there were only 2 people on it. They said the ONLY way to get on this "waiting" list is to be registered today at $125 parking spot and wait who knows when the $65 to open up. This is not south beach, sunny isles, downtown or Brickell. It's North Miami Beach in a tucked away community. They are building a huge Costco across the street and have the worst security for residents, but want to charge us like they are a luxury high rise? The units are large and nice, but the building and valet service is bad. read more

CANCER ANYONE??? I wonder when this condo association is going to tell their tenants they're living in a POISON hell hole?! That's right, it all documented by the city and this is built on a old, TOXIC, abandoned landfill and is infamous for being contaminated with hazardous substances that cause major health problems. Hazardous gasses, heavy metals and chemicals, they don't just leak into your water, but things you can un-knowingly breath in. There was a fire underground here for 2 MONTHS in 1990, causing the surrounding people that lived in mobile homes near by multiple health issues, including CANCER! In 1999, the EPA has listed this land not safe for marine life, but what about human life??? There have been NO efforts to clean this area, not that it could be cleaned anyways. There is more than average aluminum in the drinking water here b/c of the contaminated soil. Do you think you can ingest aluminum and easily urinate it out and it's safe? LOL- you people crack me up. Look up the studies of pesticides and aluminum. Particularly look up- "Glyphosate chelates aluminum, allowing ingested aluminum to bypass the gut barrier". Tada, you absorb it. Can anyone say faster Alzheimer's?? I would get a lawyer, test your water and move out of their as quick as you can. This is CRIMINAL that they allow humans to live being exposed to even more toxins. They wanted to build a whole community here including an elderly/low income association. This is criminal!!! read more

Not sure what's worse, the management office or HOA Board. Too much of a hassle for the money and you end up feeling like a prisoner in your own community. As a tenant I would not recommend unless you are never home and with the assessment's that come with the property here, buying is not financially the best move. Management takes unwarranted photos of residents and definitely not a dog friendly community. Gates and elevators are always broken. If you have more than one car, expect heavy monthly fees to have your car on property and your guests to pay and arm and a leg for valet service. Joke of community to be frank! read more

I have lived in this condo for 4 1/2 years and have seen a HUGE improvement in management since the beginning of 2022. Staff are now friendly and willing to be helpful; staff are now visible as opposed to the "no-see-ems" in the past. Is it perfect? No; but noticeable improvements are definitely visible. We are moving in the right direction! Special recognition to the following: Nickeshaa Gordon* Anthony Cramer* Manuel Sky Shine* And Alphonse, a very friendly and caring valet * Please forgive me if these names are spelled incorrectly. read more

Well first of all they have all these amenities that you can not enjoy. The pool? You can only drink water inside. Can not take a cooler with juices, sodas, beers, etc. Only water.. Can not take any type of food. No chips, fruits, etc. And let me not forget no music as well. So many rules to not even enjoy your day at the pool. Gym? Only open till 9 pm, pool? Only till 7 pm.. Sunset is at 8 pm. So you can not enjoy a full day at your pool in your building that you are a tenant in. Parking? They only give you 1 parking lot for apartment. Even if you have 3 rooms.. what happens to all the other cars? They have floor 5,6 floor for free for all parking yet its always packed. If you park anywhere else you get towed. No courtesy call even to a tenant. Made a complain, did they care? No not at all. Security guard actually said he loves towing cars because they get paid for that. Manager Fanny Carolina Cardoso did not try to help at all. Did not even take in the complain try to explain herself or refund they $126.00 dollars i had to pay for their securities mistake. Honestly this is the worse building you could live in. Horrible service over all. read more

I really wanted to like this place--I really did. In the end, it was too risky and too much of a forecast of hassle, trauma, headache, more hassle... Okay, you see where this is going. As we all know, the apartment hunt quickly becomes a massive headache here in Dade. Back in 2009, I saw over 100 apartments! Having made the decision that I wasn't going to do that ever again, I started jokingly screaming, "[expletive]! I'm just going to move into a [expletive]ing roach motel for $800/month and just live with it!" We all know that's not going to happen! Biscayne Landing is built upon a former EPA Superfund site. It was a dump for all sorts of mid-level toxic items back in the 1970s. A Miami-Dade wastewater treatment plant is situated across the street and hidden amongst the mosquito condos (mangroves). The entire planned development is almost 200 acres, but only these two buildings and its parking garage have been built. There is the Biscayne campus of FIU and several Miami-Dade public schools nearby. They were part of the original masterplan, but recently decided to distance themselves and become their own little area. As you drive up to Biscayne Landing, you can see that the streets were only half finished, trees & plants appear unkempt, the irrigation system appears broken, street lights are missing a few globes, chain link fences with faded green construction netting surrounds you at every turn--and to top it all off--a one-lane road has been made into two extremely narrow lanes (can you imagine a moving truck's hassle) because there's only one way in and out of this place. As you arrive to the section of mildly better landscaped areas, you'll see a guard standing outside in front of a cone. There's a litter of radios scattered on the sidewalk near the outdoor guard shack--which consists of those radios, a couch and a few clipboards. It's not the most flattering site when guests arrive. The buildings themselves have a strong Russian/North Korean look to them and they look much better from afar. As you get closer you can see rust and dirt collecting on the buildings. The parking garage is a nightmare. On each level there are four sets of speed bumps. No, not humps... bumps. Believe me, going up and down that dingy dark garage would get seriously old after a few weeks of those speed bumps. The leasing office staff were surprisingly friendly. During my initial visit, I had no idea of the EPA Superfund site. I was alarmed that a massive three bedroom with den apartment was only $2200. I asked our friendly leasing consultant, "Why is the price so low?!" Her face was what prompted me to do some digging. She displayed a momentary expression of panic. She was probably thinking, "Oh, shit, I don't want them to ask me about the toxic waste and the ammonia plume!" The apartments are massive. Massive. Cavernous. I was shocked! Most of them have really ugly brown carpet that hasn't been stretched properly. Yuck. I saw a few units with tile throughout. These were the best looking ones. Some units are "to' up" and some are in pretty good shape. It's typical Miami... lots of mierda with some diamonds mixed in. The bathrooms are pretty decent they went huge in the bathroom also, but the cheap shower doors were a minus. Kitchens are semi-decent. The appliances are medium grade, with exception for the cheap refrigerator. Cabinetry is also semi-decent. And, yes, the drawers are soft closing. There is a separate large laundry room with storage. Very nice. Apartments on the 11+ floors have an ocean view to Sunny Isles--there's absolutely no complaint about the view in this building. Even the lower floors have a serene view of the mangroves--though you may want to think twice about opening your terrace doors because you know what lives virtually unchecked in mangroves--MUCHOS MOSQUITOS! The elevators are pretty dingy and the intercom/call box is dusty and vacant. Basically, "It be broke, [expletive]!" There's no pool or amenities to speak of. That's all a big war between the developer and the people living there. Let's not get into that now. There is a small gym that's inside a converted apartment. It was typical crap apartment gym and it was cold as [expletive] in there!!!!! The residents walking around the property didn't seem to be growing any horns or resemble any of the deformed characters from The Oblongs. Most were pretty friendly and quite a few seemed typical Miami shady (to be fair, maybe they were visiting.) There seem to be quite a few families living here, which is typically a good sign. Most of the residents I spoke to said that their biggest complaint is when the wind kicks up the "god awful odor" from the nearby sewage plant. Ekkhh! In the end, it's a cheap building that includes a whole lot of bang for the buck. Cable, Internet and water/trash is at no additional cost. Consider it carefully as it's in a great location but also has many downsides. read more

151 At Biscayne - Russian style Biscayne Landing. - Condominiums Near Me - Miami, Florida

The property has integrated a third party parking vendor. The change applies strictly to the tenants, who now have to pay $80 PER car. Each unit has 1 assigned parking spot, all other cars must be paid for. It is also a mandatory charge the building is imposing, even if it's not listed in the agreement you signed with your landlord. The excuse I was given for this charge? To deter guests from staying over. Guests, but the fee is being applied to the other tenants of the unit who have their own cars. My spot is free but my roommate must pay $80 a month. Another thing is the fact that guests now have to pay mandatory to visit, $5 for a few hours or $15 to stay over. It is truly a crime for this to be forced on us. No votes, nothing. 3 years here and suddenly this is thrown on our laps. The worst part is, the pools still have ridiculous restrictions, the lounge needs to be reserved and paid for to be used, gym has strict hours. If you're thinking of moving in here, I would say look somewhere else. The size of the apartments and the view isn't worth the headache from everything else. read more

WORST CONDO EVER!!! When I moved in they took 2 weeks to approve my application & another week for me to get a move in date. I had to pay an extra week at a hotel and for my uhaul. The elevators are always dirty with dog piss & broken & HOT with NO AC. Today however these jacka**** HAD MY CAR TOWED OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT THAT I PAY FOR! Now, yes I failed to register it with the office yet BUT it's MY spot I PAY for monthly AND I put a note inside the window with my unit & phone number. They could've called me first as a courtesy as it IS MY SPOT! When I moved in I saw them TOWING another RESIDENTs car, which was concerning to me. I asked do you regularly tow people's cars and they said no we gave that guy so many warnings. Now I see that was a LIE probably. They get kickbacks from the towing company I'm sure so BEWARE!!!! Not ONLY do they treat residents like crap but I've already had to contact park one once previously because a security (top flight) jumped in front of my moving car & started shouting at me with my daughter in the car. They are SO DISRESPECTFUL!! Want to enjoy the pool? Good luck with that!!! My first time at the pool I had some weirdo security that they make stay in the pool area was staring at me and I'm sure taking pictures with his iPad. Truly creepy! The gym is always crowded and has minimal equipment. The security officers continually have little 15yr old girls they are having sex with hanging out, I know because my daughter goes to school with at them and they tell people. It's seriously concerning as a parent. ALL the residents say 2 years ago this place shot down!!! You can't have a guest at your home because they want to charge you 15$ for valet parking. Being here is more like a punishment than a home. The manager is cocky & rude & disrespectful. I've lived in a high rise before and quite enjoyed it but this place it feels more like THE PROJECTS! Like every other tenant I encounter when my lease is up IM OUT OF THIS HELL HOLE! MY BEST ADVICE, DO NOT RENT HERE!!!!!!!!!!! SAVE YOURSELF THE NIGHTMARE of dealing with ghetto, rude, little men with no education or morals! Also when I moved in the place was so badly infested with COCKROACHES I had to pay an exterminator to come weekly until I got it under control! This place is SO disgusting and they are only about making money no matter who they screw over!! Karma will take care of the POS who towed my car! It's too bad I care about my credit so much or I'd move out TODAY! Guess I have to deal with these losers a littler longer but do yourself a huge favor & AVOID THIS *place like the PLAUGE! Just arrived at the tow company there's a "warning" sticker placed on the car dated TODAY I assume as it's being towed" NICE JOB LOSERS WAY TO TREAT YOUR TENANTS! All this could've been avoided with a simple phone call. 151 truly doesn't care about tenants! read more

Just wanted to leave my disappointment of all the changes this buliding has had since the change in management. Follow up post coming up. read more

If I could give them no stars I would. Worst place to rent. Such unprofessionalism. I have been in real estate for over 30 years in Southwest Florida and a Leasing Specialist for 10 years. The valet company and management are the worst. Do not rent here. Very rude. Landlords are no better either. They chose to turn their back on their tenants. Problems with plumbing also. Major water leaks in buildings with old plumbing and they try to pin their problems on their tenants by keeping their security deposits. BEWARE. Check your reviews and see what people are saying about communities before you rent there. Overpriced and awful place to live. They will try to get you anyway they can here. The only way to recoup your money is to take them to court. read more

We've need a new lobby here for a long time and we finally got one. It has a pool table, ping pong table and room to hangout with friends. Good new addition to the property. read more

I'm here at least once a week and it's nice to see the improvements being made to the building and surrounding area. The new lobby just opened and they have a pool table and ping pong--it's a fun place to hang out. The view from my friend's apartment is amazing--you can see the ocean off her balcony. Once the other upgrades and improvements are made I think this will be a great place to live. read more

This place has some of the best views in all of Miami Dade. From your back porch, you have direct sight lines to the Atlantic Ocean contrasted by the lush greenery of Oleta State Park just a few blocks away. There are also great views of the downtown Miami skyline. The large units all have upgrades like granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, and oversized balconies. The good news is soon they will be adding new amenities such as a tennis court, health club facility, pool and upgraded security . Very close to great restaurants and shopping. Here's an article i found that talks about all of the improvements coming. http://biscaynetimes.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1690:rename-reposition-reinvent&catid=73:north-miami&Itemid=239 read more

I recently visited Biscayne Landing after a good friend recently moved in. I was very impressed by the building it's beautiful! It has all of the high end amenities that you would hope to find in a luxury south Florida community: Waterfront location High end kitchens (granite) Private gym (coming soon) Awesome pool (coming soon) Professional staff I highly recommend this community, it's the best I have seen in the north Miami area! read more

I lived there for five years and watched the place turn into a dump. The property manager Rudy is an arrogant, insulting, incompetent do nothing. After the hurricane a couple years back, we had no elevators or electricity due to the fact that he hadn't check the building generators for gas. The final straw was management cut a lock and chain and removed three bicycles that were properly registered with the office. I requested that they replace the lock and return the bikes to where they were stored. I requested that Rudy make his boss aware of the situation, thinking perhaps a grown up would do the right thing. All I asked was to correct it and make me whole as before. Not so much as an apology. Rudy the incompetent, called the police on me because I was angered by the situation. I'm 61 and never had a run in with the police until that day. If you want to live in a filthy, poorly managed dump this place is for you. I am reposting this on Google as well. Let's see how long it stays up. read more

Where should I start? After one year as a tenant, it's time to go. There are too many cons to suggest anyone move to these buildings. Hotwire, which is the worst cable/internet/phone company I've EVER done business with. They supply BL with service. Elevators are animal urine filled, dirty and not air conditioned. Forget about amenities except our wonderful gym where most machines are broken and the tenants steal the free weights. The maintenance team cannot speak English and take three days to respond to issues. Our management office is clueless and unhelpful. Situations happen on the grounds and BL tries to keep tenants in the dark. Unfortunately, 2 weeks ago, someone decide to take their life and jump off of their 12 story balcony. 2 weeks later, the building has failed to inform residents of post a letter of sorrow for the family. All they care for is rent money. The parking is another story along with the security situation. Take it from me, the apartment is beautiful but this is not the place to be. Spend your hard earned money somewhere where it's appreciated! read more

Terrible security even though they make you pay for expensive parking the security is the worst I got stolen from inside my vehicle which was I side the garage they told me there where no cameras. Then what are the security and the valet for ? I'm terrified now and no answer. It was a good building but not anymore. read more

Had not been to this property in a few years, but came back recently to visit the new sales center. It's nice to see work being done to make improvements -- security has definitely been stepped up (security guards take down the license plate numbers of all visitors) and the landscaping was being worked on while I was there. The new sales center is gorgeous...glad I came back to check it out. read more

I am a resident at this establishment and there are many things wrong with this property/association, as well as some positive. Unfortunately, there are more negatives than positive. I am now concerned about a new addition the association is bringing in, This new addition forces all residents renting, as well as owners to pay for valet parking from $5-$15 dollars on a daily basis to station their vehicles or guest vehicles. I believe that every resident is entitled to one parking space per unit-from 1 bedroom to 3 bedroom units this is Necessar. This basically means that everyone that resides in this establishment will have to pay either a monthly fee of $80 for an additional parking space or a daily $5-$15 charge to be able to station their additional vehicles in their own home. This was approved solely by the board without any regards on how it would affect the paying residents that will experience this on a everyday basis. Very bad managment decisions. DONT RENT read more

This is probably by far the worse place to rent or buy. One parking spot per unit? Even if you have a 3 bedroom? Ridiculous. So now we have to valet our other cars? For 15 over night,, If not pay an additional 80 dollars for a parking space every month. Such bullshit. Excuse my french but how insane is this! DO NOT RENT OR BUY. Horrible service and management. read more

Wow! Thank goodness I read these reviews before making a terrible decision for my family & I. Let me tell you the units are nice & spacious but the price was just too good to be true that something just seemed off. I thought that maybe since the amenities still had yet to be completed that this May drive the price down. But upon reading these reviews & doing my own homework it's no wonder why these condos are so affordable it's because they've been nicknamed as Miami's "condo catastrophe "! Yep it's true that this property is situated an old wasteland & is just seeping with environmental toxins and contaminants. Living here will make you sick and residents have gotten sick. I think it's really sad that they had no problem or conscious showing me these units with my two little ones in tow & not feeling the slightest obligation to tell me what was going on here. Thank you yelp users & reviews for preventing me from making a huge mistake that could jeopardize the health & well being if my family.. read more
