All and all I would not think twice about renting here but Work has me moving to a another state :-( I will follow up with the move out process when I actually move out (deposit, cleaning issues...) Update 23 August 2011 I have recieved my deposite (about 10 days after I moved out) minus the aggree amount (Carpet cleaning and water bill) before i left St Augustine and an very happy with the results (fast, fair, and what I expected. I read others reviews and was amazed that one review was so upset with the office staff change over and problems reporting. Matt was the person I signed with and he was also the one who cleared me from the appartment...

The pool and gym facility are well maintained and beautiful. LUCA is set back from the entrance ensuring privacy and heightened security. The location is convenient to US 1, 312, 207, and A1A. Churches, hospitals, beaches, shopping and errand-running is minutes away. And finally, the management staff is outstanding. There, pleasant, accommodating, and go out of their way to assist. We've been entirely happy with our decision to rent here.

WARNING: DO NOT RENT AT THE LUCA…read more This property, formerly known as The Exchange and now rebranded as The Luca, is falsely marketed as luxury living but functions more like low-income housing -- with luxury prices. Since moving in, we've experienced numerous serious issues: * Flooding due to poor plumbing construction * Peeling cabinet surfaces and cheap flat paint that rubs off if you try to clean the walls * Trash piles up regularly, and the compactor is often broken * Unsanitary and unsafe conditions: individuals were caught engaging in sexual acts in the pool restroom -- while children were present -- and there were no consequences * Discriminatory pricing: Non-local residents are charged $500+ more per month than locals (confirmed by other tenants) * Broken amenities with no compensation -- even when none were available, management refused to adjust rent * Complaints are met with excuses and outdated lease terms from a property name I never signed under They hide behind weekly food trucks and "community events" to mask the dysfunction. BOTTOM LINE: This place is mismanaged, overpriced, and unsafe. Do not be fooled by the photos or fake marketing. Stay away from The Luca -- you deserve better.

I've also seen him hugging and touching young girls who come to rent the place. If you're a female, definitely don't come here.

this was the WORST management I have ever dealt with in my entire life…read more Due to family and work issues, we had to immediately break our lease so that we could move back home and handle them. We asked them EXACTLY how much it would cost to break our lease and they told us a certain amount that we would have to pay and then proceeded to say that we were getting our security deposit and prorated rent back. I clarified on MULTIPLE occasions so that no random expenses would come up after we had left the apartment that the amount they told us was the ONLY amount we would have to pay. Come to find out one month after we left there was an addendum they forgot to mention. So not only are we NOT getting our prorated rent and security deposit back... but we have to pay an additional $2685 because of the discount we got when we moved in. On top of this, they tried to charge me an extra $200 for extra pool wristbands that we never received, and I tried to inform the property manager, Allison, that I had not received these and instead of checking to see if that was true she passive-aggressively kept telling me she was certain she gave them to us. Got a text from her 2 hours later saying she found them in her drawer. Totally unprofessional and borderline scammers. If you are in the area PLEASE consider living somewhere else. Getting your security deposit back is pretty much like a 1% chance. One of our neighbors got charged for pee stains under the carpets they tore up when they never even had a dog living there.

Live insects roaches spiders every kind. It took them months to blow it out. My apartment is behind the San Sebastian River. When I moved in I had a concern about snakes. I was told no one had seen any. Not true this place is loaded with snakes. The office even had baby rattle snakes inside office. My experience has been a large rattle snake at edge of woods which is 8 feet from my patio. He was gone the next morning. Most recently I went out on my patio to grab something and was horrified at what I saw.. A Boa Constrictor. At least 15 foot long. And about 8 inches around. He covered my whole back yard. 8 foot in front of me. I looked out to see if it was gone 5 minutes later and he was eating a 30 lb raccoon. Worst thing I think I have ever seen He stuck around about a week continuously eating raccoons. I didn't go out on my patio for weeks. I still don't go out past dusk. The office didn't do a thing. Wildlife didn't do a thing. They needed Pictures. I couldn't get great pictures inside and I sure as hell wasn't going out.Talked to several other residents on this whole property and they have seen snakes. A lot of water moccasins.I haven't seen one yet so if youdon't like snakes stay as far away from this place as possible..Can't wait until my lease is up. I'm still horrified by what I saw.
