Stephanie and Sam have been great. We had some concerns about our fridge shortly after moving in, and Stephanie didn't hesitate -- she replaced it with a brand new one, just like that. Sam is the kind of maintenance guy you hope for. Super responsive, came by multiple times to keep us updated, and knocked out every request we had -- cleaning, AC check, window screen, bulb installation -- all without us having to chase him down. He just gets it done. Really glad we ended up here. The team actually listens. read more

I'm writing this at 3 am. For months now, a Bewick's wren (and/or a pair of them) have terrorized me and my family's sleep here. Look them up. They are known to be one of the LOUDEST birds that exist. And they live at Anacapa. For some reason, they are on the weirdest bird schedule I've ever encountered, seemingly being fully awake and making their loud calls between 1-5am. They have woken up my baby from sleep multiple times even though we run a loud white noise machine and fan. The noise is SO piercing. I am an animal lover but wish there was a way to kill them. Worst of all, I don't know what anacapa can really do about this. It's a bird, it can easily flit from one tree to another if you go out and try to scare it away. But for anyone considering renting here, beware. The noise is terrible!!!! read more

Parking has finally been enforced. Please keep this up throughout the year! Nice to not have to drive around the complex after a long day of work read more

I've had some work orders go out in the past few weeks. The three maintenance guys: Bernard, Sam and Jerard have been great. Jerard had 3 request in one visit and knocked them out and helped answer other questions I've had. Supper helpful!! Sam and Bernard were very great, when I got locked out of my garage. I appreciate that they came to help me with my maintenance requests with positive attitudes, especially because they were later in the day when I know most would like to get home. They are all great extensions to the Irvine Company Team. Thank you!!! Also, Tommy has been my go to rep. Just a very nice guy. Always happy to help, very knowledgeable and kind. Thank you, Tommy!!! read more

David, Tracy, Tommy at the front office are great. We had some new unruly neighbors who didn't respect anyone else and the front office took it seriously. The process was a little slow at first but sped up since it continued even with the other party receiving notices. They let us transfer to another unit and did everything to ensure we were happy (and we are!). Maintenance (Sam/Jared) are always quick when it comes to the small repairs we needed and they are always extremely nice. I'm glad we stayed with Anacapa and did not end up looking elsewhere even with the problems. read more

I haven't lived in this apartment for very long, but I've already had the pleasure of receiving help from two maintenance team members--Jared and Jose. They were both incredibly professional and helpful. I truly appreciate their excellent support--they're great members of the team! So far, everything has been really wonderful here. The only small downside is that the refrigerator is quite noisy. read more

Anacapa maintenance team is great, especially Sam. He is very skilled and helped us many times with various repairs. Thank you!

Had some major issues with our washing machine. Wasn't agitating or spinning the clothes. Simply filled with water then emptied all the water out leading to staining on the clothes, and wasted Tide Pods. Super frustrating. Put in a work order and Jared stopped by to check on the machine. Jared made the whole process super easy, was professional, and kept a neat and clean workspace all while having a great attitude! He even noticed I had a burned out canister light in the kitchen and he swiftly jumped in to action to change it out quickly! Thanks Jared! read more

My AC broke for the 3rd time and we are in a heat wave, they said it will be 48 hours until they can fix it. I asked to speak with a manager, Ryan, and Tracy told me it takes 2-3 days for them to call you back. Please do yourself a favor and don't move here. read more

Anacapa leasing office does not mind neighbors to smoke in their apartment. If you are a smoker in particular crack, marijuana laced with some other drug move here! They confirmed to me evicting is impossible even if you get evidence from their security petrol. They cannot stop you! So smoke smoke smoke away . High five Anacapa leasing office for supporting the druggies and lung cancer causing habits residents! Cough cough ughh these neighbors smoke way to much... read more

Tommy expedited the maintenance request, thank you! Jared saved the day and got our thermostat working again...keen troubleshooting! Thank you! read more

Disclaimer: we are not living here yet, but wanted to leave a review for our leasing consultant My fiancée and I are excited to move in a few weeks to this community. We visited 3 times at different times of day and were pleased to find it very clean and surprisingly quiet for the location. M The five stars is for our leasing consultant, Christine Kim, who has been extremely communicative and helpful. We had a TON of questions and she has been consistently patient throughout the entire process. We hope our stay at Anacapa will be as pleasant as our interactions with Christine so far. read more

Thank you Mark! Mark made the experience at Anacapa amazing. Super helpful, knowledgeable, and welcoming. As a matter of fact, the entire team at Anacapa: Micheal, Luis, Douglas are all awesome. Thank you guys! read more

Anacapa is noisy. If you live in a lower unit, most likely you will hear you neighbors walking all day above you. That gets annoying pretty fast. There's a lot of dog crap on the grass since management allowed everyone to have a dog. People are taking their dogs into the pool area, I found crap there too. Very overpriced for tiny apartments if you ask me. read more

Thus review is regarding my experience with Josh Rangel who is and has been handling my air conditioner issues at my Anacapa home along with Luis who owns the air conditioner company. Josh has done an amazing job handling the many issues associated with our air conditioner from determining our apartment home needing an entire new air conditioner along with replacing other parts to make the new air conditioner function at peak performance. He listens and pays attention to details. He us an exceptional employee by himself or working as part of a team that was demonstrated by working with Luis, the owner of the air conditioner company. You feel confident that he will do what it takes to get the job done correctly! read more

Lived here for awhile and frankly tired of having to search for parking. The management office rarely enforces parking requirements, maybe once a year. We have neighbors with 3-4 cars that do not even park in their garage at night. It's a free for all. Of course there will be a reply from Anacapa to this post telling me how responsible they are. But as usual, it's all lip service. All they care about is the rent check. Terrible manager, all she does consistently is go out to lunch every day. read more

Had issues with the fire alarm. Couldnt figure out which one was bad. Brandon came out once to replace one. After he left, the beeping continued. He had to come back and replace the second one. Brandon was very nice, he came out twice very quickly and replaced both fire alarms. read more

Maintenance staff are amazing and responsive. Special shout out to Jeremiah for his help at the main office!

I wanted to give a shout out to Luis from the Anacapa Maintenance Team. He worked so hard and made sure everything I needed was fixed. He came when he said he would and communicated about the process. Give this guy a raise! read more

Don't be fooled. They respond to these yelp reviews to give an outward appearance that they care but they don't. The health and safety of their residents is absolutely NOT a top priority. Extensive work needs to be done to this apartment. They are going to open up the walls and replace the drywall and lift up the carpet to put chemicals on the subfloor to mask the urine odor. This will happen in the hallway and dining area and will take a week. They told me that I can continue to live in the apartment during this time and will not relocate me to another 2 bedroom apartment during this time. Not sure how I am expected to live in a place with walls opened up and carpet pulled up for a week but, as I said, they do not care in the slightest. After all, they don't have to live amongst this urine odor. Not to mention, the bathtub floor is completely uneven, there is standing water in there 24/7 and smells like mildew. They told me that was a cosmetic issue. read more

I love living at Anacapa! It's a calm, welcoming community and exactly what I was looking for. One of the best parts has been working with Brandon--he's been incredibly helpful anytime I needed work done or had issues that took longer to resolve. Brandon always stepped in to help, either by handling things himself or redirecting them to the right people to make sure they got resolved. So grateful for his support! read more

I ALSO forgot to mention that I had a couch delivered two days before I was supposed to get my keys (it was delivered 5 days earlier) and Victor was kind enough to have maintenance out the box in the apartment. I'm absolutely SO happy. I also got an extremely good deal on my apartment for the location, the size, the area, and the remodeling of the interior. read more

Here's a fairly simple review to all neighbors stay safe as I mentioned as well as to the complex.Noticed a recent increase of homeless people coming inn and sleeping here till the morn.k,recently 1 couple was escorted out bye the cops.And I had a recent run last with a very angry man.Also for dog walkers pick up after your animals,as well as there's no smoking of any type here cigarettes everywhere and constant smelling of weed . Today noticed some more people showing up getting in going through the dumpsters I've had to address to numerous people cops will be called as we don't allow soliciting here nor homeless people going through dumpsters and then seeing what they can't steal from people garages as sometime there left open.Here's a recent image from today license plate was blurred out for obvious reasons. read more

Austin You did a very good job on my maintenance for my bathtub made it look Brand New...he's friendly Always says Revelation 21:4 4 'He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." Made it so easy for me to come home and feel safe read more

This place is a breath of fresh air all thanks to Zyler, my leasing consultant. I don't have to park a mile away to find parking as opposed to my former complex in Tustin. I've been able to park in the same row last two weeks and am loving it! Thanks Zyler! Before I moved in Mallory at the resident services office made sure to let me know what to expect prior to moving in. Everything went as smooth as can be. Thank you to everyone in the office! read more

I have lived at Anacapa for the past three years, and I couldn't be happier with my experience! The team here is incredibly friendly and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure resident satisfaction. The community itself is well-maintained and always clean, and the location is ideal! I would also like to give a special shout out to Sam from maintenance, who came for a service request so quickly! His professionalism and helpfulness were truly great! read more

Part 2: Repairs: We had to live through a MASSIVE repair - apparently our shower was not put in properly (something they apparently were aware of but "hoped for the best") and there was a leak from our shower into the garage below us.  We were told we HAD to comply with them - they demanded access to our home, when i told them they needed to give us 24 hour notice (we work from home and have 2 dogs, we cant just drop everything for them) i was told by the assistant manager that they have the right to come in anytime they want to if they call it an "emergency" (this was not an emergency)  We were then told it would be fixed by the end of the week, and then it would take three weeks - 2 months and 1 day later we had use of our shower again.  During those 2 months we had to put up with random people coming in and out of our apartment at on their time and according to what fits their schedule, demolition work while we tired to attend virtual meetings, Construction residue and dust EVERYWHERE daily, zero privacy in our own home, zero peace or quiet in our home, workers CONSTANTLY interrupting our work to ask questions or knock on the door.  Last minute changes to schedules that we were not informed of (we ended up having to communicate directly with the contractors who were MUCH more helpful rather than going through anacapa for updates, anytime we would call I would have to talk to 3 people because literally NO ONE knew an answer to a simple question).  We were essentially the unpaid guinea pigs for this project as they foresee this issue happening again in other units. At one point during the repairs the downstairs neighbor (garage owner) Ran into our home, down the hall and into our BEDROOM  without knocking, ringing the doorbell or announcing himself - all to tell the contractors that there was water coming in.  LEt me be clear - you DO NOT ENTER SOMEONE'S APARTMENT.  I went directly to the leasing office - but was told i would not get the neighbors name.  THey would rather protect the privacy of him rather than protect us who had our safety and privacy violated.  I ended up getting some letter from irvine companies attorney (which i'm also happy to post a copy of) basically acting as an apologist for what happened "yes, it was egregious and we talked to him...but...but...but" NOT BUTS, the fact that he was not immediately evicted tells me everything i need to know about the Irvine company.  They refused to provide his name... so our contractor did.  When the Anacapa site manager found out that we got it, she was PISSED - bc how dare I get the information i was seeking to protect myself and my family when she did not want me to have it. Lastly, during this whole process we were told by the site manager that we would be compensated - it took us going to them to request this weeks after the job was done (and not just once, we tried t reach out SEVERAL times) to get some sort of traction on the promised compensation.  We asked for 2 months of rent relief and to be let out of our lease without penalty (we were actively looking for a house).  They said that isn't something they do, the only compensation they offer is $500-$1000 (which is BS, another family we are aware of got this level of compensation for their issue).  After WEEKS of waiting we were offered $1000, when we declined, she was genuinely shocked.  $1000 is not worth my time, and it is MUCH more worth it for me to write a review such as this than to accept a measly $1000, which i would not be able to if I accepted the cash, as they force you into silence).  She then came back (another week later) saying she would let us break our lease for HALF of the lease break fee BUT we had to move 30 days from that date - which of course we couldn't agree to - we would have taken the offer, but for reasons she refused to share they demanded we be out in 30 days if we did.  We were actively looking for a home, but could not guarantee anything.  So we then went back and said, Ok, give us the cash equivalent, and it was refused.  So after 2 months of them invading our living space and not being able to use our shower they did absolutely nothing for us.  A few weeks later we had an offer accepted and gave our 30 days notice.  I went back to the site manager and asked if the 1/2 lease break fee could be extended.... nope, it was a one time offer.  This was the WORST experience i have ever had while being a renter.  They had absolutely no regard for our needs.   WE even tried to push the fact that THEY broke our lease agreement in that we have a right to quiet enjoyment/possession and invasion of privacy - but apparently hammering into our apartment where we live, does not reach the limits of "quiet enjoyment" BTW - I have ALL of this communication saved via emails. Not one bit of this has been exaggerated. read more

It's very convenient for shopping. Pools are nice, but that's about it. Management and most neighbors suck for a lack of a better term. Rent is sky high. Also, our garage was broken into the first month of living here. read more

I have been living here for some time now. But I wanted to thank the maintenance staff, especially Sam for helping me when I need things fixed. They come quickly answer my questions and fix the problem quickly so my daily schedule is not interrupted. I really appreciate that! read more

Irvine Company has the best customer service and communities to live in. They make finding a place to live really easy because you can view all their apartment layouts and virtual tours via their website. After looking at 10 plus Irvine communities, we finally decided Anacapa would be the place to call home. Our lease representative, Marlyn Perez helped us from start to finish. She answered all my emails, provide layouts of different units, and even booked an appointment for me to view a unit which was at a prime location. Ask for her if you are interested living at Anacapa. read more

My husband and I loved staying at Anacapa. Location is amazing! When we had our move out inspection Chris helped us out & he was great! Chris answered all our questions and was courteous. Thanks Anacapa! read more

Sam was really good helping me out with a problem in my kitchen,he is very professional and very good,he is the best!!!

Our move-in experience at Anacapa has been great and that is due, in large part, to the outstanding maintenance staff. Everything I've needed has been handled immediately and done with an attention to detail that has been consistent across the board. Staff has been responsive, considerate, polite, and they know their stuff. Things are repaired or even replaced; no half way there solutions. Daniel, Sam, and Luis have assisted me every step of the way and helped the move-in go smoothly. read more

Carlos came to my apartment to fix a clogged toilet. He was professional and did a great job and made sure my apartment no longer had problems. What more can you ask for? Great service, great amenities, and a great place to live! Thank you Carlos for making my resident experience here at Anacapa so great! Highly recommended! read more

Nice looking apartments but they need to work on their cleanliness. The 3rd unit I toured looked like it was the one until I saw this dead roach by the kitchen sink. I also saw a lot of roach droppings around the kitchen as well. On to the next.. read more

Doug from maintenance is awesome!!! Anytime I have a maintenance request he is prompt, reliable, and very courteous. He always goes out of his way to make sure I'm comfortable and does his job quickly. With their busy schedule I'm sure this isn't easy, so it's much appreciated. Shoutout to the office staff as well, they're very nice. read more

We have had a fantastic experience living at Anacapa thus far! We love the facilities, our neighbors, and our home. Sam is extremely helpful with maintenance issues and extremely prompt. He is kind and cares about the residents. read more

Sam is the best maintenance man ever! This review is for Sam. I'm about halfway through my lease and I'm sad to say I've already had a number of issues. But every time I've worked with Sam, he's kept his appointments perfectly and always does the necessary follow ups whether it's having to come back with certain parts/equipment and he does his best to work with my busy and unusual schedule since I work night shifts at the hospital. He meets me in the morning as soon as I get home from work to solve my issue so I can get the rest I need during the day when it's hard for me to wait around for the guys to fix these around the unit. Recently I had my garage malfunctioning and my toilet flooding right before I left for work and after one phone call he promised to meet me first thing in the morning so he could fix all my issues - and he delivered. He's a very hard working and nice man and he deserves recognition. I hope I won't have to call him again, but if I do, I know he will come through. Thank you Sam! read more

Luis was very fast to help with my garage issue. He went out of his way to make sure it was resolved as soon as possible. It's very nice to see that anacapa has such amazing maintenance support. Thank you Luis! read more

Absolutely LOVED living at Anacapa. I lived there for 5 years from November 2014- November 2019. I could have stayed there forever if it was just me and my husband but our family was outgrowing the space. Anacapa has unique floor plans. My plan was a 2 bed 2 bath with no shared neighbor walls (believe it or not) and windows on multiple sides of the apartments giving it more lighting than a typical apartment floor plan. We also had a large dining are for an apartment. I also liked how the 2 bedrooms were tucked away from the entry giving more privacy. The resident service staff was always professional. Full time maintenance crew always kept the grounds lovely. The new renovation on the pool looks like a resort. Large bbq area with 2 outdoor TVs with cable. Location is walking distance to so much. Area is very central to everything in the OC. Even though I now live in a brand new house, I actually really miss living at Anacapa. read more
