literally the worst place to live. overpriced even for iv standards. management wants to make as much money out of students as they can. they love to power trip too. read more

Brett was super communicative and was very responsive!! Cant wait to move in and get started.

Not recommended. The repair service for the main door gate has been outstanding for nearly a month without resolution. There are two pending orders for my unit submitted in October that have yet to be addressed. read more

As the time to secure next years living situation comes around, I just wanted to share my awful experience from last fall. From start to finish, Capri Apartments was a terrible decision. Before move in, I called several times during business hours and never got a response. They have a parent company that "takes messages," and I even had them mark them as urgent and I never got responses. When I did move in, I purchased a parking spot, but then was told they oversold spots and I couldn't have one anymore. The next month, they still charged me for parking. The bed was cheap and uncomfortable, the shower was clogged, the living room is absolutely non existent, the WiFi was unusable, and the slider (which I didn't even live in) has see through plates that is 0% sound proof and 0% private. Aside from the physical aspects, Nicomi and Hannah are extremely unprofessional. I didn't get along with my roommates and they would get involved in drama and gossip about me to them. When I tried to move out, they tried to transfer me to abrego, but the girls there told me it was cockroach infested. I decided to pay the $250 contract fee and move out because they claimed there was absolutely no spots open in any other rooms, yet 2 weeks later I see them posting on a Facebook group about openings. Not to mention the office would be closed early with no notice and it would be impossible to reach nicomi. Worst part is the PRICE. It was $757 for an entire apartment that is the size of a living room anywhere else. And I'm pretty sure they raised the price since. I was out thousands of dollars just from one quarter of living in this terrible place. I eventually moved into a double for $500. I promise there are affordable and convenient places in IV, this is hands down the worst experience I've had. read more

Horrible place to live at. (I lived at the abrego location) They have a bad cockroach infestation, management is hard to deal with once you sign your lease, management is always coming in and out of your apartment (at my new apartment I have so much more privacy in that regards), overpriced even for Isla vista(paying the same price now with a much larger room + closer to campus), and if someone parks in your parking spot it's almost impossible to get them towed unless its during office hours. The only real reason why I gave them two stars is because the gated parking is a nice feature and there is a lot of cameras around the facility so it feels safe. Also, I got most of my deposit back, but they charged $200 for standard cleaning and painting. Kinda bs if you spend so much time diligently cleaning the entire place for move out....I can understand the fresh painting though. read more

This place is awful. The staff is so full of crap, and really have no idea what they're doing. When I lived here last year, they overcharged me for the move in, and would routinely just straight out lie to me when I was in dispute with them. Last year they were advertising first month 1/2 off, but nope, paid full price for the first month. They said it was the second month that was half off, but had no explanation whatsoever why there was a disconnect between what they were charging and what they were advertising. Just lies and never any explanation. My lease expired August 30, and as of today I still do not have my security deposit back after calling them repeatedly to get it. I did however, get a statement saying that they owed me back my security deposit, minus a $100 restoration fee. I've seen neither my deposit or a itemized statement of what that restoration fee was. At this point their in complete violation of CA law, but neither Capri, nor their parent company Asset Campus Housing is doing anything about it. Just don't live here. They'll jerk you around and take your money. read more

Capri Apartments in Isla Vista is a great place for UCSB students! Heather and Luvia are so responsive, helpful and professional! The apartments are well appointed and the secured parking and bike area is great too! The laundry facilities and app for it are nice and handy as well! So far so good!! Thank you Heather and Luvia for being so awesome! read more

My favorite apartment right next to UCSB. Comfortable, clean, convenient, affordable and the managers here are nice. Super helpful staff when it comes to anything I need. read more

I would avoid doing business with Capri at all costs. You will be charged fees not listed in your lease agreement. They will be as difficult as possible if you try asking about these fees (not responding to emails, not giving you copies of documents you're entitled to, etc). I was a subleaser at Capri and I inherited fees from the previous tenant. The way they conduct business and try to take advantage of students is just outright awful. read more

If you like rats, ants, broken toilets, half lit claustrophobic apartments, useless, crappy management then Capri is perfect for you. Capri is full of crap! Ask their tenants and they will tell you. Numerous tenants have moved out and threaten to pursue legal actions because of the inhabitable living conditions and apathetic management. Capri will continue with their bull until someone sue their behind. DO NOT SIGN A LEASE FOR CAPRI, YOU WILL REGRET IT! 1.The place was infested with rats. The manager received complaints from numerous tenants. What did he do? He denied what we had to say even though there was rat feces present and pictures stored in our phones. 2.The lights were out for half the apartment. I contacted maintenance several times, no one ever came. 3.The toilets were ALWAYS clogged. 4.Management was the WORST! The manager was very unprofessional and had a nasty attitude. He was rude and could care less about the tenants. 5. I did not get my deposit back even though I left the place in the same condition I left it. Living there was a NIGHTMARE! Words can't express how happy I was to move out. read more

Very little space, especially with a large portion of the living room blocked off to form a single with sliding doors that offers very little privacy. Bad internet that went down often with no support. Hot water runs out quickly. They find any excuse they can to take your deposit money, likely because they paid in bulk to paint every apartment frequently (cheap muthafuckas). It's gated, but the gates are never closed or locked. read more

(I'm at the Abrego location btw) I am so incredibly happy here at Capri, I cannot express how amazing the managers and maintenance are. This is my second year in the area, I just moved out of Beach City in Santa Barbara (which was AWFUL) and I'm so stoked that this place is so nice. The apartments are adorable. The furniture that came with it is so nice and the beds are pretty comfy. We had lots of little problems when we first moved in: wifi wasn't working for a couple of days, we wanted a loft bed taken apart, we needed a couch cover because the couch was a bit messed up, we found some cockroaches, dripping showerhead, etc. BUT they fixed everything RIGHT AWAY. I went to the managers with a list of problems and they were all being taken care of before I even go back to my apartment. They are the sweetest, most helpful managers I've ever met. I love love love my new room and apartment, and I highly recommend this place to any students looking for a place in IV. So happy here!!! :) read more

I lived in Capri for my first year in UCSB, and it was amazing!!!! I love the fact that it was a really comfortable place to live at. The campus was walking distance, as well as restaurants, and markets. The place was extremely clean and we didn't have many problems. If some problem did arise management was quick to fix, it wouldn't even take a day before it was already fixed. Management was very friendly and eager to help!!! If you have a chance to live here you won't regret it. read more

This place deserves negative ten stars! Students - beware. Do not rent here. My daughter got a roach-infested, filthy, disgusting apartment that is dark as a cave. The greedy owners converted the LIVING ROOM into another bedroom, taking away all the sunlight from the primary window, so there is nowhere to sit or relax. The apartment is horrible. Our list of issues and repairs exceeded twenty!! Further, the management is completely unprofessional and refuse to reply to emails or phone calls. I will be filing a complaint with every agency I can to try to get some justice for these students who are being taken advantage of by Capri slumlords. read more

A lot of problems with the place, and maintenance acts slowly, if at all: 1. There were ants in both rooms(no food was eaten here) and also in my friend's bathroom. Many bugs came in even though the door was rarely open. 2. Also, the shower was clogged and we put in maintenance requests many times to no avail. We had to shower with dirty water up to our mid-calves for a month before they decided to send someone in to snake the shower. Also, the window where you shower is not tinted so we have to use foil or newspaper to block the people on the outside from looking in while you are showering. 3. All of the sinks in the house backed up and was filled with black and brown water. This was fixed moderately quickly however. 4. We had three lights that were out. It took them a while to respond to this request as well and they only fixed one. 5. Currently, the dishwasher has a broken motor and because it is expensive to replace, the handyman said that the office will deliberate if they want to replace it or not. Verdict is undecided as of now. Furnished includes beds and mattresses and one table and a few chairs but kitchen is completely unfurnished and you must buy all your wares yourself. Management during the year (excluding Riley) was not the most courteous or helpful, but during the summer, they were very nice. I like my home to be well lit and this place has very dim lighting, so if you don't like that, either buy a lot of floor lamps or choose a different apt. complex. Also, the floor is very dirty upon first moving in. My friend stepped once one the wood floors and his socks were black. Scrub down yourself if you like to walk inside your house without shoes. It sounded promising from the website, but I would definitely not live here again. read more

I lived at Capri Isla Vista for over two years and I had a good experience the whole time. I met some of my best friends living here and I was always happy with my apartments. Management was always quick to respond to anything I needed - i.e. clogged pipes, broken appliances, etc. Recently, the Isla Vista locations have had some re-vamping, and I have to say, they look amazing! The new paint job on the exterior really makes the building stand out among some pretty drab and boring buildings (sorry IV, but you're pretty ghetto sometimes). Another plus, they are PET FRIENDLY!! I was able to keep my puppy by staying at Capri. Overall a great place to live. - To those people who had things to say about this place, if you have bugs in your place that's not managements fault- you're probably just dirty people, because bugs don't invade houses for no reason (except creepy spiders), if your shower gets clogged it's because you're getting too much hair down the drain, so learn to use something to catch the hair BEFORE it goes down the drain or buy some drain-o, and if your light bulbs go out, that's YOUR responsibility to replace them, not managements. That's standard on any lease agreement. read more

Don't live here if you want to have fun! You'll get fined for anything party related and wont get your deposit back !

Capri was a great place to spend my first year! I really enjoyed the atmosphere, & the people there are really friendly and chill. Affordable place that includes EVERYTHING! Nicomi was awesome and very understanding, I highly recommend this place. Thank you!!! read more

I almost forgot about this shitty place. If you're considering to live at one of their complexes, please know that management is terrible. I've called so many times for multiple problems throughout the 2016-2017 year. One time I got locked out of my apartment for 5 hours in the cold until someone was able to get me. It was so cold I had to wait in the damn laundry room to stay warm, it was pathetic. I also reported several times that our place had flooded from water coming from the outside. They were very upfront about it and told me the damages wouldn't come off my deposit. When I received my deposit, I was furious to see that I only got half of my deposit back! This was because of cleaning fees and repainting but I know for damn sure my roommate and I cleaned everything well. I was so offended by this "cleaning fee" that were charging. Because when I initially moved in the floors were filthy, sinks were all rusty/ had patina on them and everything was outdated. The bed frames creak, lack of privacy, and the WiFi sucks too. So before you buy into their gimmicks keep in mind what I just said here. read more

I don't even know where to start here. I feel like I have been ripped off living in Gollum's cave for this long. First off, Capri has only done cosmetic repairs to make it more appealing and to fool you into renting. The drains clog so easily it is like New Orleans in your shower. The garbage disposals are so filthy from years of being untreated that they're literally breeding fruit flies and maggots in the sink. Also you might want to bring your own bed as Capri purchased their mattresses from an Auschwitz rummage sale. If that wasn't enough, you have to bring enough clothes to last you until you go home for break because you need Ben Gates from National Treasure to help you track down a laundry card. Also don't bother doing school work or browsing the internet here because the wifi that you pay for does not work because Capri is too cheap to put a router in every single apartment (as I'm writing this via mobile hotspot). Here's the icing on the cake, be prepared to shell out an extra $16 per month on top of the electricity bill because you can only pay your rent online and there is a $16 "convenience fee". Sorry to inconvenience you Capri, I know you're busy unclogging drains and fixing run down apartments. Not to mention the RA...I mean manager Fawnray. You'll get to know her well as she likes to walk around people's apartments and barge in without notice just to see what you're up to. read more

A great place to live. The apartment at Abrego is not far away from school, but quiet and safe. Neighbors are nice, and staff at leasing office are always ready to help. read more

One Word: UNPROFESSIONAL. The management team for this complex can be described as UNPROFESSIONAL. Nacomi and her hilll-billie husband can barely get there jobs done. When we first moved in the apartments were FILTHY. We immediately requested that they did something about it and they told us someone would come to clean it. No one ever came. Not to mention we had a leak under our kitchen sink, no hot water, a broken door, no working cable, and no couch. Nacomi kept giving us expected "dates" that these problems would be fixed, however these dates get extended weekly. They can never follow through on any work orders. When my roommate and I got locked out of our apartment, the husband told us that he should just let us "sit outside," and that he could've "stayed in bed" instead of DOING HIS JOB which is attending to our after hour phone call needs. The apartments are TOO overpriced for what we get: a dirty old apartment. Live anywhere else in Isla Vista but here. Sincerely, Unhappy resident read more

Capri IV had terrible management when I lived there. The unit had broken pipes and leaky faucets which the management did not fix. They would just sign off my maintenance request without actually fixing the problem. They withheld my deposit and did not send me an itemized list of charges within 21 days after move-out. This is against state law and I have still not received my deposit back. I cannot recommend this place. Everyone I knew there had major issues with their units. read more

Living here is just awful. I am in the building at the end of Abrego, and for the price of a two bedroom, we get the size of a one bedroom, as it lacks of a living room, which appears to have been converted into the second bedroom with sliding glass panels. There is also no lighting in this second room. The staff cares very little, and really doesn't know what they are doing. Maintenance does not respond, and the staff either does not listen or does not care about problems. I put in many maintenance requests through their online form and was never once gotten back to on them. I had to call them, several times, to get anything done. -We had an ant problem. I eventually had to take care of it myself. -Also, had mice. They never took care of this, after 2 weeks of complaining. -TV was broken when we moved in, and considering rent covers cable, and the TV is part of the apartment's furnishings, it was a little ridiculous we had to do without for 2-3 weeks. I would not recommend living here to anyone. I will not be living here again read more

Capri Isla Vista is the absolute worst apartment complex you can possibly imagine living in. If you enjoy clogging piles, cockroaches, and atrocious management then this is the place for you. The management fails to work in a timely manner, and would constantly be bugging us about various things in our apartment that were irrelevant and none of their business in the first place such as the sleeping situation. They are always knocking on the door for annoying reasons and won't give you back your deposit. Don't stay here if you enjoy life. read more

This apartment complex is amazing. Some students might complain about how small the unit is but its very modernized, cleaned and rental agency is EXCELLENT. Nacomi and the staff at leasing office are excellent. Recommend staying here for college. read more

If I could give this bug-infested dump a negative rating of one quadrillion stars, I would. Honestly, the good reviews here are most likely sock puppet accounts controlled by Capri management. Judging by past reviews, the old management was terrible, and I can guarantee any prospective renter that the new management is just as bad, if not worse. The exterior of the apartment complexes has a fresh coat of paint, but the interiors rival the torture chamber from the Saw movies in both appearance and functionality. Believe me when I say that none of the photos on their website or Yelp truly capture the true depths of filth and decay that I encountered upon move-in day. My neighbors were nice, but they were all potheads at the very least. And the management were typical IV slumlords: rude, unhelpful, and utterly incapable of following through on the smallest requests. If you sign a lease here, be sure to kiss your deposit money goodbye before you let it go because you will not be seeing it for years (if at all). Please, for the love of God. If you have any other options, DO NOT RENT HERE! read more

I'm just now finishing up a year at Capri and while it has been a rather turbulent ride I can honestly only think of good things to say. The complex is beautiful, from the street view to the inner courtyard to the actual apartments themselves. The fully-furnished apartments provide a comfortable living environment at a reasonable cost, especially when considered alongside other housing options in Isla Vista. The neighbors are nice, if sometimes loud (but that's simply a given in the area). The real selling point for Capri, however, is the on-site manager, Nicomi Vargas. To attempt to list the qualities that set her apart from other property managers would turn this review into a short novel, so I'll be brief. She is friendly, respectful, and always receptive to concerns, regardless of size. There has not been a single trip to her office where I have left feeling unheard, frustrated, or ignored. Instead, she has always been able to put a smile back on my face and leave me confident that my problems would be solved. She is sincere in her desire to make every resident's stay at Capri a comfortable and enjoyable one, and for that reason alone you should choose Capri if faced with the choice. With any other manager, the complex would be average, warranting a 3/5. Nothing amazing, nothing awful, good for what it is. Nicomi singlehandedly transforms this place (and has transformed my experience) into something unique within Isla Vista. I can only hope that management I encounter in the future will be half as a good as she is, and that is a very tall order indeed. read more

These apartments just underwent some renovations and they look so nice now! Super close to UCSB and really nice neighbors.

Great experience with the new manager! My car was towed accidentally and she drove me to the tow place, made sure there would be no payment, and even asked if there was maintenance on my appt that needed to be done. read more

I have only live here since the new management has started working and I have never once had one issue. Every time I need something fixed it gets fixed the next day and the management is always quick to respond! read more

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE! They found a replacement for my lease after I was there for 6 months then even though the person was paying rent faithfully THEY CHARGED MY CREDIT FOR $6,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT RENT WITH THIS PLACE!!! You will regret it. read more

This place is the WORST!! Never rent here. The management is AWFUL, especially SEAN, the property manager. He doesn't do anything!!! He thinks making a phone call is doing something...how about actually going to the apartment and looking at it. Basically, I tried to move in on move-in day and nothing was ready. I wasn't able to sleep there that night and I had to spend money on a hotel room because I had no where else to go. What a terrible way to treat a person, who has already given you over $2,000. read more

this place is disgusting. moved in with expectations of what was posted on the website and it was nothing like the pictures. place was filthy, court yard was full of trash and workers equipment, and broken furniture and metal poles; workers working till 1:30 in the morning. hardwood floors all bubbled and cracked and so dirty, bathroom toilet has black hard water stain in it, and bathtub is gross. the refidgerator had mold in it and food left over, under the sink had cockroaches and what ever else lived under there. wish i could post pictures. please look at the place before you even think of moving in. read more

Terrible management. Someone broke into our apartment and it took them days to come fix the door which couldnt close. It takes them a really long time to do something for you like kill the mold that grows in your bathroom. Way overpriced and is really cramped. The matching for roommates is crap they just match you up with whoever. Do not live here. Anywhere else is better. read more

The management here is horrible, enough said. Ive only been living here for two weeks and I've already had to deal with SO many issues since I moved in. For one thing, I've already been stripped of both bathroom and laundry privileges, because the toilet is horrible (it's failing to flush yet again at the moment), and management is unable to give me a laundry card because they're associated with a sketchy laundry company that is having issues with their website, thus preventing me from successfully purchasing a laundry card. Now I have to walk several blocks just to go to the bathroom or do laundry... On top of that, they've also given me the incorrect keys to my room and mailbox far too many times to count. The bath faucet was leaky and the shower curtain was on the verge of collapse when I first entered in. The wi-fi connection is painfully inconsistent and slow, and often fizzles out completely at times. My mailbox lock is jammed and thus won't open up, even with a key that works. And additionally, the walls have several scratches on them. I never knew I would ever be living in such a broken down home at any point in my life. I would give this place zero stars if that was ever possible. Whatever you do, DON'T ever consider living here... You're probably better off homeless. read more

I lived at Capri on Seville for 2 years. I highly recommend NOT living here. First of all, my room flooded. In the middle of the night out of no where I woke up to water all over my floor and it ruined a lot of my things. I moved on from it and didn't complain much and my apartment flooded AGAIN a few months later. When I left Capri you would think as a loyal tenant that stayed after the flooding I would get at least my deposit back but out of a $690 deposit I only got $90 back... I even asked for some money for my damaged goods from the flood and got nothing back. Also the management picks favorites and if you're not one of them you will probably have a miserable time living there. There are no living rooms and living in the slider isn't even worth it because you have no privacy at all. This place is a rip off and they just want your money. There are many more great places in isla vista to live trust me! read more

My daughter attends SBCC and live in Capri Appts at 6598 Seville Road in Isle Vista, 93117. I was visiting her last month and was shocked to see an open sewer pipe and human waste spilling outside her apartment. We couldn't even open the windows do to the smell. I spoke with the manager, Sean, and he said that he was aware of it and that it would be fixed that weekend. A month has gone by and the sewer is still not fixed. I could hear many, many students coughing while I was there. I too came down with a horrible cold while I was there. I would like to file a public health complaint to have this sewer spill cleaned up and repaired. My daughter's appt now has mold growing on her walls and ceilings. The manager told me to have her open her windows and when I said she can't because of the smell he said 'well have her turn on the fans'. the last thing I could ever thought I would have to worry about sending my daughter away to college was something like this. This apartment complex is charging $650 per child a month to live there and there are 3 to 4 students per apartment. Terrible place to live read more

do not live here! or talk to management!! they will lie and send you collections without you ever knowing!! i have never lived or planned on living here, and i just found out (because of an application to another apartment complex) that i owe capri apartments 700$!! while i have never lived there!! management is completely useless and refused to help! worst apartment management ever!! run away and do not, i repeat, do not live here!!!!!!!!!!! read more
