Eucalyptus Grove Apartments

This is my second time living at these apartment homes. The only reason we left was because we moved out of town. We love this place. The community is great and our neighbors are nice. Can’t find a reason to give them less that 5 stars.

Give me a break you are not out to correct your wrong doings or why do it in the first place. You thought you could get away with something.

Great apartment, been living here over a month, friendly staff, decent rent, in walking distants restaurants near by 3 different gas station, 2 major inns and a mil away the westfield mall.

Been here for 2 months now and I can say I love it. Maintenance is fast and the ladies in the front office are so helpful. I love how close it is to the freeway. Thumbs up!

I lived here for a year, & I do NOT recommend it! Staff fairly nice BUT the apts are outdated, do NOT get an apt by the freeway side!!! The NOISE is horrible, You won’t be able to watch TV or have a peaceful dinner! Also, the apts built up humidity! Parking SUCKS!!! Good luck on your deposit, kiss it good by! They’ll nickel & dime u when u move out then u find out that you’ll owe them instead of getting a return! I want to boycott these apts!

I love this place I feel safe and happy with me and my 2 year old. I recommend for people that don’t want to do their own gardening and pool cleaning but still live in a beautiful place and have it done fir you also a gym

I lived here in a way over-​priced studio!!. Please do yourself a favor and do not rent from them.
Bad experience #1: There was a leak in an upstairs apartment and the maintenance staff went into my studio, tore open a gapping hole behind the toilet and left a heater running on it in the middle of summer! I was not notified that anyone was in my apartment until I got home and saw a letter slipped underneath the door. I got home and it was about 85 degrees in the studio and I had to go spend the night elsewhere. The maintenance staff used MY towels to wipe off the drywall from their hands. I was not compensated for the 2 nights I had to spend in a hotel room because of the heat and the fear of rats, mice, insects coming through the whole.
Bad experience #2– There are dumpster divers in the dumpsters every single night making it very uncomfortable to throw away trash when it’s dark. The entire complex is not lit well at all and there are transients walking around every night. There is a patrol car that drives by but they say nothing to the dumpster divers.
Bad experience #3– my neighbors storage room, was «broken» into and his property was stolen. He remember locking the door so he thought it was an inside job… i.e. someone in the maintenance staff being the culprit since they are the only ones (beside him) who have access to the storages.
Bad experiences 4– 7: The property is soooo run down! The stairs are all uneven, the paint is chipping everywhere, the walls are thin and I could hear every step my upstairs neighbor would take. I could hear talking on the phone.
The prices for these apartments go up every couple of months… DO NOT FALL FOR THEIR TRAP! The more you are willing to pay for their run-​down, poorly maintained units, the more they will raise prices! They take advantage of people. Look around, do your research. They are better apartments for way cheaper. Sure they’re right off the freeway, but this place if not worth it!

Military families BEWARE! They only get one star and only because I’m required to click one. This place is awful. The apartments are «open space» which is more like a studio with a divider to create a bedroom and they are considerably over priced for what you get. The staff is rude and contradict each other with the information they give you. We had an issue with them relating to orders and they were not helpful in the least bit had to get an attorney to finally sort it all out. We also contacted the attorney general which informed us that this company has had many issues in the past with trying to rip people off. Never again! Hope no one has to go thru what we went thru! Good luck!

Living here since December 4^th and I must admit I Love my new place it’s cozy and perfect. The office staff is very friendly and helpful. I have no complaints.

I’ve lived here for about 7 months now and I love it. I never lived in an apartment before so I was pretty nervous about living around so many people, thought is was going to loud and uncomfortable. But I was wrong this place is so peaceful! The office staff is so friendly and made me feel at home from day one!
LOVE!!! LOVE! the fact that they are pet friendly, it was so hard to find a nice place that would let me bring my babies along. The community is full of eucalyptus trees so our walks are always a pleasure. And the maintenance staff keeps everything looking beautiful and clean. im so happy I choose to move here.

My wife and I moved in here June of 2015. From the beginning we learned that if we arrived home late that we would probably have to park and walk a half mile away, there are no assigned spots and its first come first serve. Also, for being a «luxury» apartment we did not have air conditioning and we had to have the windows and doors open at all times with fans on or else it was unbearable. To make matters worse, the electricity went out several times in the 3 months we were there and on one occasion we had to actually leave and stay with family just so we were able to sleep. We also had a problem with the plumbing several times and towards the end, when we flushed, the wall behind the toilet would make a loud thumping and shaking sound like something was gonna come through the wall! I called maintenance several times, even left a message, and never got any response. I am in the military and I received web orders for October (but did not know if I could execute because I did not have the required time left on my contract), at the end of August and at that time I called (my mistake, should have gotten it in writing) to give them a 30 day notice and asked if I needed to sign anything and when I needed the orders in. All they said was we needed to bring them in before we start to move out, so September 17^th we went in with the orders and they said that we didn’t give a notice and even though we were moving out September 29^th, we still had to pay for the whole month of October. Then as of October 18^th we had been notified by a friend that someone has moved in to our apartment and according to the California civil code the apartment cannot charge double rent. After my attorney sent them a letter saying we would take them to court, they changed their ways and only charged us what we really owed!
Not military friendly!
Be careful and get EVERYTHING in writing no matter what they tell you!

Lived here a month. So far so good. Everything seems calm and its quiet. They are very pet friendly which i love, and feel safe with security at night. Ladies in the office are always welcoming and friendly and answer any requests/​questions I have.

This is the worst place I’ve ever lived. The maintenance men are amazing and get things fixed right away. However, the management isn’t the greatest. They shut off our water to work on boilers without notice. This has happened three times. They towed my husbands jeep while he was underway (out to sea) without notice because they claimed it was «stored»… However, I was issued the ticket 15 minutes after I parked it. After getting military legal involved we were returned our money. There isn’t installed air conditioning and you’re not allowed window units so you have to get an indoor air conditioning unit and you’ll expect you electricity bill to be over $ 300. The only bargain is the location.

I live at this apartment for 6 months and I must say its one of the worst areas in Chula Vista, not only is it not safe but the place is dirty, the garbage area is never clean so disgusting. Something is always breaking so maintenance had to be called literally every week and going to the bathroom, the vents don’t blow properly and the toilets are always clogged. I rented this area being new to San Diego but had to move after I realize I wasn’t comfortable. Living here I would not recommend for a family.

Lived here for right at a year. Never had any major problems, less of a little confusion upon move out. And all though it upset me and I got nasty, Liz was nothing less of a professional. She even went so far as to send an apology card.
Any issue I had maintenence showed up same day. I had great neighbors and parking was never an issue. The only complaint I have is the washer and dryer aren’t full sized. Make sure you get a unit with A/​C or bring a portable one.
Lastly, when you go into the office, make sure you tell Liz that she’s amazing. :)

Living here since January. The apartments are small and cozy, perfect for a couple and their dog. The bathroom needs an update. The Kitchen should be updated immediately, the stove is old and slanted and everything is very old. But can’t complain too much, we saw the apartment before we moved in and knew what we were getting. Great little place to stay temporary … You know, until you can get your house you have been saving up for.
Because of the lack of parking we had to get a carport. First night there the emblem on our car was stolen as well as the registration tag. The office said to call the police because they can’t do anything about it. Not that the police would do anything either. I am disappointed that the ‘security’ they said patrolled the grounds are only available during the day, aren’t even around during the day. Unless they are wearing plain clothes of course. Advice: Be aware of your surroundings at all times.
The laundry rooms are very helpful. Our king size comforters can not fit in the in-​unit washer/​dryer so I use the laundry room. The machines only take those refillable cards, which is fine and convenient. But, the refill station is only located in the leasing office itself. A bit inconvenient.
The staff is pretty nice. I have heard complaints about them but I haven’t had any problems.
The maintenance crew adds that extra star. Any problems or issues or even questions I have, they are on top it! Very helpful and very professional.
I love dogs. This place allows practically all dogs of all sizes! Unfortunately, residents tend to not always pick up their dogs poop. And they are doggies bags all over the grounds.
I would recommend to Eucalyptus Grove, to have a garbage bin by the relief areas/​bags and have it emptied often everyday.

We moved here beginning of 2015 by the freeway. Since then I had my downstairs neighbors smoking weed and the smell would go into my apartment (we both have children). So I always had to keep my windows close. The couple would fight at the staircase so when you come home from a long day of work they had clothes laying around the 1^st set of staircase and trash everywhere. They moved out finally along with my 2 other neighbors and finally got new ones. Since then I had 1 experience of my neighbor smoking weed along with children inside. They also smoke outside your apartment and wind would blow up so I smell everything. Also, they don’t tell you when they need to shut off the water for maintenance it happened about 3x+ in less that 4 months. Parking sucks so I we rented a stall plus storage unit well came to find out one morning our storage was broken into. Called the cops. Called the office (they never answer so you have to go there in person). So the following morning (Monday) they had been opened for about 3 hours already went in to talk to management they just said sorry we can’t do anything about it and that they heard my voicemail but didn’t decide to call me back? They didn’t offer to move you into a garage I had to ask to be put on a waitlist. I even ask if management will put out an announcement to let the tenants know to double check their storage since someone broke into mine. They didn’t even answer my question. Pushed it off 3x. Parking sucks ass. I’ve seen people’s car hit and run dents also scratches on mine. They don’t keep the grounds clean. And people left dog shit on the grass. Also I forgot I tried renting the clubhouse 3 ladies told me different times that they open since I wanted to decorate early. Took 1 month to finally get an answer and the lady I was talking to was no help in answering my question and the statement she’s new?
To sum it up… this place sucks with people and management!

Afraid I am also going to have to leave a scathing review of this place.
Lived here for a year with my boyfriend. Liked the gym. Hot tub was okay when it didn’t have crushed beer cans and kids peeing in it.
Apartments are too small for what you’re going to pay, and they’re going to charge you $ 100 a month for water. You won’t find that out until you’re signing the lease.
It also costs about $ 60 if you lock yourself out of your apartment after 5pm.
Dog poop everywhere. Never, ever walk on the grass at night or after it rains. Similar note: sunrise to midnight, the dogs here go nuts. Unilocaling, yowling, howling dogs. Don’t know if the owners are out or just deaf.
I just wish I hadn’t lived there. It’s a good place if you have too many kids to take of and too many dogs to take care of, I guess.
The only places nearby are the mall and Whispering Trees market (I do miss their pizza). Not a bad neighborhood, but definitely nothing interesting or within walking distance.
Finally: going to have to say I’m disappointed with Liz. She flat-​out lied to me when I moved out, and I ended up paying an extra month’s rent on top of all of all the replacement costs. Considering that’s the fee for breaking the lease early, I wish I had done it months ago and gotten the hell out of there.
Also: they offer a deal with ATT, but their contact at ATT (Yolanda?) is not the brightest bulb in the box. Took four months for them to straighten out the mistakes she made when I moved in – trust me, you do not want to be calling ATT twice a week for four months.
Seriously, you’re gonna get ripped off. Just steer clear.
Edit: the apartments also have the cheapest paint, flooring, and fixtures. Do not believe what they show you in the model room. They give you the cheapest stuff so they can charge you for replacement when you move out.

My wife and I lived here for a year while I was stationed at naval medical center San Diego. Our experience here was much less memorable than we expected. We take it as a learning experience for our next apartment search, and we hope that someone else may have the foresight to avoid making the mistakes we made with moving into this complex.
Rent: too high for what is being offered. The area itself isn’t the safest, or the most up and coming.
Facilities: the gym was very small. Imagine having to duel over a treadmill? I got used to running outside.
Grounds: kind of creepy after dark. Not to mention the sketchy individuals who would peer through our car windows at night, or the western towing guy out lookin to ruin your morning completely.
Staff: condescending is all that comes to mind when I think of the staff at EG. Let’s not forget to mention incompetent. Getting anything fixed there required a pilgrimage to Outer space to retrieve the scroll of patience. They were nice, but nice doesn’t make things happen.
Neighbors: perhaps as a coincidence we didn’t ever get along with our neighbors much. Probably because they ignored us completely, or because they were too busy partying it up around the beer pong table. Oh and to the guy who ran down the hall screaming for someone to help him while tripping on acid at 4 a.m., fuck you. Needless to say that my wife and I prefer to associate with a different crowd.
Parking: good luck finding that. Or pay the extra $ 100 a month for a personal space that gets broken into a robbed on a regular basis.
Everyone’s experience is different, and ours just so happened to be unpleasant. That doesn’t mean it will have to be unpleasant for you, but be warned! This isn’t a place you’ll be at for long.

THIS IS LITERALLY THE WORST PLACE ON THE PLANET. I could write a freaking novel about how much I hate this place, but I’ll give you the gist of what I’m trying to say here: DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I lived here for 3 YEARS! Inefficiency, and TERRIBLE TERRIBLE service run wild in this place.
(MILITARY) My comrades dont live at this place I am warning you. You’ll pay WAY TOO MUCH MONEY! I went on deployment and was told that the management will take care of everything. Take out the pet rent since I gave away my dog but turned out I was still getting charged till the Day I moved out! Now they are giving me all the excuses in the world to not give my money (pet rent) back!
OH WAIT THERE’S MORE: THE PARKING! Two of my friends’ cars got stolen here. First, it was back in July 2012 the management did not even help her and made her look like it was her fault.
2^nd it was back in June 2013 my friend’s car tires got stolen! REALLY? lets not talk about havin 24hours security!
Btw, One day my cousin’s car was parked and a tree fell! It broke the windows and left a big dent on the car. Called the cops to file a police report. The day after, we talked to the manager and they said they had nothin to do with it (THOUGH the tree was in their area) They even told my cousin to get a lawyer but she wont get any help from em. So USELESS!
FINALLY! the day I moved out! they asked for my future address. after 14days I got a mail from em. «Final Moveout bill»! (See Attached) When I opened it I almost cry because of the bill. almost $ 1600 seriously? Where do they expect me to get that much and pay them back! What about the pet rent you guys took from me?
If you actually read this entire thing, then for the love of JOB heed my warning: DO. NOT. LIVE. HERE. ITS. NOT. WORTHED!
Especially folks who just got station here! Save your housing allowance!
