view from my balcony

Ocean Club is an amazing apartment complex. It's a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. The amenities are awesome and the Ocean Club staff is amazing. I especially want to recognize Bryan Ruiz, who helped me fixed some of the issues I had in my unit today.

The broken balcony
Kelsey B.

Wow did the rose colored glasses fall off quickly. Where do I begin? I only lasted a year here. Wish I could have left sooner but it's about $6k to break your lease. Once you get past the awe of the views and the pool, it's all downhill from there. 1) Good luck getting maintenance done. On-call? What a joke. My sinks flooded (apparently an issue with plumbing up or downstairs) and it was nearly impossible to get someone over. I spent hours on the phone with whoever the third party is that's supposed to get someone to come fix your problem. They literally said to me "We've tried every single person and no one's picking up. To be honest, they're probably all watching the super bowl so it's going to be hard to get someone out there today." All of this while my apartment is flooding. Then they suggested I call someone (a plumber, etc.) on my own- but the company likely wouldn't cover it. They were finally able to reach someone once the game ended and they got to my place around 10 PM. 2) I had issue after issue with the water temperature. During my last few months at Ocean Club, they did some work and after, my shower water would go from cold, to scolding, back to cold, etc. each time without me touching anything. I wrote in about this to have them come fix it. They came and simply left a note that read "to help with temp turn on hot water completely then slowly turn on cold water to reach desired temperature." This did NOT help, and that is not "fixing" a problem at all. 3) I got locked inside of the garage once when my remote control clicker died. I called "on-call" and they told me there was nothing they could do, they would attempt to reach someone. Never got a call back. They said someone would call me back to let me know either who to call or when they found someone to let me out. No one ever did. The entire night. Had to wait for someone to drive in to let me out. 3) The balconies are in terrible shape. They did a "balcony maintenance" thing one week (where we had to take everything off for 5 or so days. They painted the entire side of the building a hideous bright blue. They did nothing to fix the falling apart balconies. 4) Expect to be unable to park in your garage at least once a month for few days at a time. For cleaning, construction, or whatever it may be. I'd often come home to a notice on my door letting me know that I wouldn't be able to park in my spot for the next 3-5 days. 5) Make sure you check your bill every month. Be vigilant. I didn't find out until after I left that I was being charged TWICE for electricity. For my address and another Ocean Club address. I was told when I first started my lease (photo attached) that I was to pay my electricity separately. Then when I got my final statement, I noticed I had been paying electricity both on my own AND Ocean Club had been charing it monthly. It ended up being the electric company who mis-input my address, however, Ocean Club was the opposite of helpful in helping me get it back nor did they ever explain how this could happen or WHY they told me to pay it separately. Didn't even acknowledge it when I sent them the documentation showing them what I'd been told. I could go on and on what's wrong with this place. Zara and Megan were the only good thing about this apartment complex, and they're both gone now (I don't blame them). Save your money- seriously. This place is an absolute scam. I'm sure someone will eloquently respond to this post trying to contradict these points, saying they tried to work with me or fix these problems, or I should have done more to make them more aware, etc. That just isn't true. Do yourself a favor, look somewhere else. P.S. They push you SO HARD to write a nice yelp review upon moving in which I did originally begin Zara and Megan were so lovely. You'll see if you move in.

Pool area
Tracey R.

Wonderful place to live with a strong community vibe. Shared spaces are well taken care of, and although apartments are small the outdoor spaces compensate. Not recommended for families especially those with small children - noise is very unwelcome and screaming kids aren't tolerated - 3 noise complaints and you are asked to move out - which is fantastic. There were issues with management playing loud music at the pool particularly during weekdays but corporate quickly responded to complaints and it's no longer an issue. We don't have WiFi at the pool which is disappointing. Security feels pretty good with few issues. I'd recommend this place to singles and couples. Some buildings and apartments are more modern than others, as rents are similar try to get one with a balcony view or you will regret it.

I've lived here for over a year now. The amenities are always clean and serviced. The pool seems to be cleaned every day. One terrible office staff named Sunny is the only reason this place wouldn't have 5 stars from me. Her attitude towards tenants is very rude, critical and unkind. She behaves as if she hates people. I thought she only behaved that way toward me but I've heard it from other tenants as well. When I ask her a question she responds as if I should already know the answer, I don't work there, that's why I'm asking. It's gotten so bad that I won't go the property office if she's there. Some people should not be in customer service.

Late night termite drippings have been raining from my celling like something out of a horror movie.
Kristen R.

My two star review was overly generous based on the location of the property. I've had other tenants reach out to me about the nightmares they've encountered with the staff here. Terrible management and management company. Oh, also for the tenants living here, they are illegally allocating your utility bills, per CA regulations. This wouldn't be the only violation of tenant rights you're likely to encounter.

From getting my apartment ready before move-in to responding promptly to a few issues that needed attention, everyone has been professional, friendly, and genuinely helpful. A special thank you to Vonnie, the manager, and her team--Al, Javier, and Mario--for going above and beyond to make the experience smooth and welcoming. It's clear that they take pride in providing great service and making residents feel truly at home. Any concerns I've had have been addressed promptly which has made the transition into my new home so much easier. We still have a couple of issues but I am sure Vonnie and her team will handle it in a timely and courteous manner as they have with our whole move.

My neighbors are friendly, management - Vonny and her team are amazing and the location is prime real estate - close to everything including the beach. The property is quiet which is ideal for adult/retiree living. Amenities include a beautiful pool (although always cold), BBQ grill, laundry room, a great room with games, ping pong table, exercise equipment, weights, sofa and chairs for lounging. The complex is well-kept and managed - Vonny does an excellent job. The Al and the maintenance team are attentive and provide a speedy response and repair to any maintenance and/or repairs. I would highly recommend Emerald West to adults/couples/retirees if it meets your needs, a place of peace and good energy. I will miss being here!

Invest the time in your apartment search to look elsewhere! Azure is a great spot to live, albeit…read morewithout any amenities to justify such high rental rates for the area. There is no doorman, package room, pool, roof-deck, gym or any other convenience that one can usually find standard in a similar type of rental community in the Hermosa/Redondo Beach area. Azure's management company, Pan American, is a master of the "bait and switch" sales tactic in which they'll lure you in with rental concessions and then increase your rental rates as soon as your initial lease expires. Their rates are inflated for the market, which is why there are units sitting vacant with little interest from prospective tenants. The rent for my unit increased 12% year-over-year when you factor in the initial rent concession to bait us to move in and the property management company tried to claim that increased rental rates for the renewal are aligned with the local market. If that were true, there wouldn't be vacant units in the building with such high turnover. I offered to keep my rent flat in order to renew my lease, which is still 9% higher than my effective rent during the initial lease and they rejected the proposal. They would rather lose money offering a rental concession to new tenants than keep an existing tenant at full-price. Pan American's corporate greed and senseless business practices are unethical and tacky. Do yourself a favor and pass on this property!

This building changed owners about a year ago and is now professionally managed by Pan American…read moreProperties, Inc. of Tustin, CA. The building does not have an on-site manager, but the manager has been quite responsive when I have reported problems. Without an on-site manager, package delivery services are somewhat questionable. Some packages do get delivered inside the security gate somehow, but some get left outside the gate by the mailboxes. I have chosen to have my packages delivered to The UPS Store less than a mile away. That has proven to be convenient enough for me. The new owners have done significant work on the property since they acquired it. The building has new exterior paint and landscaping. They are in the process of refurbishing the units with new cabinets, appliances, hardwood floors, and vertical blinds. There are sixteen units in the building, eight of which have two bedrooms, and the other eight have one bedroom. The building has a laundromat in the basement. Refurbished units are getting a stacked washer/dryer unit as well. All units come with a garage. Residents of two-bedroom units get their own two-car garage with over-hood storage cabinets. Those in one-bedroom units share a garage. The parking area has a security gate, and the garage doors can be locked as well, if desired. Additional storage space may be available for rent. The building is pet-friendly. First floor units are accessible to disabled people, but the wheelchair-bound may need to install a threshold ramp. There are no outdoor spaces for recreation, nor does the building have any other shared recreational facilities. Natural gas, water, and trash service are included in the rent. Time Warner Cable provides TV, phone, and broadband. Verizon services the area, and their phone and DSL services are available in the building. Only the slowest DSL service is available here. Verizon's FiOS is available in the street, but for some unknown reason, the ownership has chosen to not have it installed in the building. I find this puzzling given the effort they are putting into updating the property. My understanding is that Verizon will install it in the building for free, if allowed. My unit is quite comfortable. The living room in the two-bedroom units is quite large. The unit is heated by a single double-sided gas wall unit between the living room and the hall to the bedrooms. This means that the bedroom doors must be left open in the winter to allow heated air to flow into them. The neighbors in the building are all very nice. Unfortunately, more than half of them have moved out or are preparing to since I moved in. Apparently, after the building changed hands, the rent for the current residents was increased substantially to the extent that several of them have been forced to move out. The situation with the rents for the current residents who were here before the building changed hands is so extreme that it has me wondering how fairly rents will be handled from year to year. The building is less than half a mile from South Bay Galleria. That puts most shopping and several dining options within walking distance. Bus service is also convenient. Stops are located at the corner of Artesia and Inglewood a short block away, and the nearby mall is serviced by several lines; so public transportation is quite easy from this location.

Anytime that I have hit a challenge I have full support. I love every single member of the team including David, Julie, Jose in maintenance, who is absolutely phenomenal... These individuals make the fabric of this community! There are annual events for the residents, which are also wonderful and a great way to meet your neighbors. It is a beautiful community in Marina del Rey right near the ocean and has all of the amenities as well including a pool, gym, and grounds that are pet friendly and always incredibly well maintained. Everybody here truly cares. That is what makes the difference! I cannot recommend this community enough for an individual or family looking for a place to call home. And thank you to the incredible family of staff here that make The Shores a truly special place to call home.

The property manager Cheri has been on it when it comes to our needs making maintanence an easy issue.

My only one complaint about the complex is that the parking garage itself has a bit steep of a ramp making it difficult for lower cars to make it in without scraping the bottom unless you enter at an angle.

However, communication about maintenance schedules and water shutoffs could have been more consistent. We usually didn't get emails nor texts which would have been more appreciated. She does yearly inspections too. We loved that we had an online portal for payments. The apartment itself was a good sized one bedroom. We had our own heater which was inside the walk in closet. We had one parking spot for us with more storage in the parking spot. Downside of this apartment is that they are not double paned windows so dust and noise are inevitable. You hear everything. Walls are very thin. We were on the first floor and we could hear everything. There are two rooms of laundry and uses Bluetooth for payment which was amazing. However, only a few work. I believe the residents have reported it several times but no action was done. The residents of the complex were mostly couples and single residents. Only a few people had families. With that said, I think this apartment complex is more appropriate for couples and singles who are looking for a more quiet and intimate space. I wouldn't say this place is family friendly.
