    Sabre Springs, Scripps Ranch

    **Yelp Review:** The…read moremaintenance team, especially Francisco and Gustavo, are truly amazing and work hard to keep things running smoothly. However, they are let down by ineffective leadership and a company focused on increasing profits rather than genuinely maintaining the property. Regular maintenance and annual inspections are simply not enough. Tenants are left to deal with ongoing issues and a noticeable lack of effort in maintaining both the units and the surrounding areas. Trash and furniture are often scattered around, particularly near the dumpsters, which fill up within hours of trash collection. There seems to be no accountability for residents who improperly dispose of large items or leave their trash bags on the ground. This neglect has led to problems with bugs, ants, and even coyotes, creating an unpleasant and unsafe environment when trying to dispose of trash. I loved living here until the last 1.5 years. Now, it feels poorly maintained, and tenants are treated as just another dollar sign--paying over $3,800 for a rundown "condo" with a brick patio wall that I cannot see over. The LVP flooring is cheap, impossible to clean, and separates easily. Management seems more focused on justifying rent increases with superficial improvements like outdoor paint and electric charging stations, while there have been no real upgrades to my unit or those of my neighbors. When issues are raised with the leasing office, we often receive generic emails from the property manager addressing concerns, but there is never any real resolution. For example, coyotes have torn up both a grocery delivery and an Uber Eats delivery, and despite promises of resolution, nothing has changed since March 2025. In the last 6 weeks, I experienced mold and water issues in my laundry room, preventing me from doing laundry or accessing my attached garage for days. Less than a month later, my garage flooded due to a malfunctioning water heater, ruining many of my late husband's belongings that were being packed away. When I reported this, I was told that I could only have a car in my garage. Apparently, it's my fault for having anything other than a car in there, even if it's within the lease agreement. Meanwhile, about 70% of residents have overstuffed garages that pose serious fire hazards and should be reported to the county for clear violations. They do not care until something serious happens, and even then, it's swept under the rug as if it's no big deal. Additionally, for a 2-bedroom, 2-bath home with one adult and a baby, having an SDGE bill consistently over $700 for 3 months--when it was always between $140-$200--is unacceptable. Dozens of residents are experiencing this issue, but everyone is so burnt out that it rarely gets addressed. This property is starting to feel and look like low-income condos but with a high sticker price. As a loyal tenant for over 3 years--never late, never a bother, and always keeping my space clean while respecting my neighbors--I feel my efforts are overlooked. The ongoing decline of this property is deeply disappointing. Nowadays, having a roof over your head is seen as a privilege, so I shouldn't complain, right? Even if I pay over $4,000 a month, I shouldn't have standards or expect anything, right? That's what this complex treats us like.

    Out of any place I've lived, this by far has been the best experience…read more From day one the staff has been extremely kind and friendly. Braden sold us strictly on first interaction. From there out, everyone across the board has been just as great. Whenever we've had an issue (usually small maintenance stuff), Jackie & Gustavo have taken great care of us to make sure we get the problem fixed asap. Love the surrounding area, fun community events, tasty food trucks, great neighbors, and every amenity you could want. Plus, our home is spacious and beautiful. We love it here so much and couldn't be more happy with our little community!

    It's a cheaply built condo complex, with outdated amenities. It's poorly kept up with by whoever…read moreowns the complex, the sign for the complex outside is literally cracked down the middle. Lots of bugs, people have alot of pets here so there's always poop on the ground somewhere. There is no on sight management, there's a "main" building in the front but I don't think I've ever seen anyone in it, there's a gym in there too but I asked 3 of my neighbors and nobody was given a key to access it. There is no AC and yes the apartments do get hot, don't let anyone tell you they don't. The laundry rooms can get packed sometimes but usually you'll be able to get a machine without waiting. The car port covers are falling apart. Legitimately it looks like they were built 10 years ago and just never cared for after that. I've noticed that the community here is older, so anyone in their 20s-30s who may want a community their age, this is definitely not for you. They have had roofers here for the past 2-3 months banging on peoples roofs, no warning, no heads up, nothing. Also, if anyone condo within your building has a sewage issue, plumbers will shut down the water for the entire building for hours to fix it. So be prepared for that happening here and there. That being said, it's decently priced for Southern California. You have designated parking, plenty of guest and street parking outside the complex. The condos themselves have enough room too. It's not horrible, but if management or HOA cared more and started actually fixing the place up it could be much much better.

    Maybe it's not the best condo in the world but considering the price - it's worth it. I think it's…read morea good starter home. Pros: - assigned carport parking. Not all condominimums have these options. - enough parking for a second car. Again, modern condos don't offer so many parking lots. - laundry facilities. Decent quality laundry machines and very close to the units. - gym. it's good to have it right next to your door. - pool and hot tub. - location. It has a great location - close to everything you need - shops, malls, beach, and restaurants. -gated. - lots of grass fields where kids and dogs can play. Not many communities can offer that. - "free water". It's included in the HOA fee, so a long shower will not hit your pocket. Cons: It's an old building that requires some investments. - gym equipment is old and some machines do not work. - you may not find additional parking after 5 pm. I think HOA should keep an eye on registered cars better. I guess some people have 3-5 cars per unit. - not heated pool. I wish the pool be heated all year round.

    Wow! What a wonderul place to stay. Modern amenities on the beach, fantastic views, very relaxing…read morewith no parties or loud neighbors, and one of the best locations I could imagine on Mission Beach. The Surf Rider is a building on Ocean Front Walk (a long beach boardwalk that connects Mission Beach to Pacific Beach) with about 12 private residences that range from $1M to over $2M in price. They are all privately owned and operated, but most (if not all) are rented out regularly and used as vacation rentals. What makes the Surf Rider different from the literally hundreds of other beachfront options is the fact that they have a gorgeous courtyard complete with an in-ground hot tub and two outdoor grills. Sitting in the tub, watching the sunset and ocean waves while people on the boardwalk pass by is a fun way to spend at least one evening. The interior of the property is gorgeous with marble counters in the full kitchen, updated bathrooms with lovely showers, comfortable beds, washer and dryer, outdoor patio, and all of the utensils you need to cook and clean during your visit. See photos. The beach, which is just steps away, is lovely. Great waves, clean beach, not crowded at all, and friendly people. There is a beach market less than a block away where you can get all of the essentials for your trip. They have everything from cereal and sandwiches to sunscreen and beach chairs. Ralphs is a short driving distance if you want to do real grocery shopping. Just down the boardwalk in one direction is the heart of Mission Beach and Belmont Park, which is a really cool facility complete with a roller coaster, other carnival type rides, and a man-made surf wave that was really cool. In the other direction, you hit Pacific Beach, which is full of bars, restaurants, and a great breakfast spot called Konos. The best way to find a condo at Surf Rider is to search on Google or VRBO. The owner of the unit we stayed in was really wonderful to deal with. I am not 100% sure about the pricing of some of the units, but the ones we saw ranged from $250-500/night for accommodations that sleep up to 6. One parking space was included with our rental, which was very convenient.

    I am an original owner and have lived at La Boheme off and on for much of the last 18 years. Each…read moretime I come back, I fall back in love with my condo. The building keeps getting refreshed to keep pace with the extraordinary development of the surrounding community and fresh carpeting, painting (both inside and out), common hallway baseboards and lighting, new gym equipment, common room upgrades, etc. have it looking well kept and modern. We have been lucky to have had great management for many years including the current manager. I appreciate that there are many owner-occupied units, a prohibition of short-term rentals and that most who rent to mid and long-term tenants have been selective, choosing individuals who care for our common space. Yes, community living brings about some challenges with barking dogs and urban noise, but for the most part, it remains a really comfortable building in the heart of a vibrant neighborhood.

    I am an original owner at La Boheme and have lived in my unit two stretches (including currently)…read morefor a total of 4.5 of the last 7.5 years. Units are great for what they are, what they cost to build/buy, and location-location-location... Walkable to all the new restaurants and pubs in NP. Gym, 24/7, sauna 24/7, and hot tub 7a-10p due to folks like Anna L. (below... ha!). 90 percent of the people in this complex are very nice. The other 10 percent you never see or just keep to themselves. Management is nice. They do have a lot to deal with and are managing a community of 224 units so don't expect them to jump to your whim, they have real things to deal with. Renters vs owners. There did used to be a larger number of owners. Some like me have rented their units and returned. Most of the renters are good people. I think the high cost keeps some of the bad people out. From other Yelpers comments it seems that some renters are not aware that this is not a "rental property" but condos, the HOA does not own these units, nor do they vet the renters. Owners rent to who they want. This means 224 separate interest deciding who lives in this property; not management. I have never had an issue with pet feces in the elevators or hallways (maybe some bum-piss in the alley). The cleaning crew is onsite and cleaning common spaces nearly everyday....so maybe I missed it. Could also depend on which building you are in and what elevator you are using (there are 4-5 elevators in the two buildings). I am on Ohio st and use the south elevator. Everyone is super nice and considerate in this building. Some units (mine) have epic views from the top floor. Which makes up for the following negative thoughts.... Streets do stay lively in the evenings due to 21 y/o's out for their first legal drinks walking back to vehicles at 1-2am. Understand you live in the city. Negative air pressure causes front doors to slam if the occupant does not mind the door when coming/going. BOOM! Occasionally heard anytime of day or night. There have been issues here with security but personal due diligence solves that. I would not suggest you keep priceless heirlooms in the storage cage no matter how good a lock you put on the thing bc the cages are weak. The private parking is not secure parking (never was sold that way even) so be sure to lock vehicles properly just like you might in the street. The HOA has taken steps to increase security because they want people to be happy and safe but it really is not their issue. **I also blog on boutside.org --- if you like my reviews come check my "adventures in fooding" out there**

We…read morewere genuinely interested in touring this apartment complex after my boyfriend found it through Apartment List, where it clearly gave us the option to book an appointment for a tour. Since he booked the tour for the same day, he called the property just to confirm the appointment. The lady immediately came off with an attitude (which I was already off by that) and asked him, "Did you apply?" We, as many people would, didn't apply because we wanted to SEE THE PROPERTY FIRST before deciding if we even wanted to live there. She kept insisting, with an attitude the entire time, that we shouldn't have been able to book a tour because she was the one who set up the website and supposedly made it so people couldn't schedule tours that way. Well, clearly we WERE able to book one. So instead of realizing there may have been an issue or misunderstanding with the website, she felt the need to pull the "I'm the property owner" card. Also, my boyfriend was calm about it too because we were actually interested in touring this place and even asking when we can tour it. She could have easily explained politely instead of making him feel like he did something wrong. We probably reached her at a bad time in her life which is not an excuse because we were not mean. As a property owner or manager or whatever you call yourself, you should know BETTER and have some respect!

    The "guest" parking section exists for a reason,to ensure…read morethere are always available spaces for actual guests and residents who temporarily need parking. Instead, the guest parking here is abused nightly by residents treating it like permanent parking. Some vehicles sit there for days at a time. Expired permits are ignored. Some cars don't even appear to have permits at all. Management is clearly aware of these ongoing issues and continues to do nothing about it. After coming home from a long day of work around midnight, I was forced to wait for hours just to find a single available spot. No resident should have to sit in their car until nearly dawn because parking rules are not being enforced. I'm posting this here because I currently don't know where else to escalate the issue, but once I find the proper channel, I absolutely will be filing a much more detailed complaint. The parking situation here has become completely unreasonable.
