Tamarind Square

For the most part, I love everything about Tamarind Square. We moved into a townhouse almost 18 months ago and I have very few complaints. The grounds and common areas are beautiful and well maintained. The apartment is roomy and it’s nice to have a washer /​dryer in the apartment as well as central heat and AC. Finally, maintenance crew is the absolute best! They are always fast, friendly, and very courteous — even taking off their shoes before coming in so they don’t mess up your carpet. Office staff is friendly and very helpful.
My only complaint about Tamarind Square has more to do with the corporation that owns them than anyone on site. We’ve had trouble paying our rent online (and they ask that you don’t pay in person) and we had to call after-​hour maintainence for a leak and found the number listed on the site was discontinued.
The apartments are a little pricey — but well worth it.

I move in a couple of months ago and I love it here. I’m renting a town home and there is so much space. People in the office are really helpful and the grounds are super clean. They have a pool, spa, gym and clubhouse. The only negative thing is no stainless appliances.

The reason why I give this place 4 stars is mostly because of the maintenance guy Bralio. He is absolute amazing and put his heart in this place. Whenever something is not working or we need help, he always makes sure that whatever it is that needs to be fixed that it will be taken care of. The Facility is very clean and I see him always walking around checking if everything is in order. I don’t know what this guy makes but he should get a raise for how much effort he puts in his work.
Other than that we had a couple of Problems with this place when we moved in. Our AC was not working for a while, every time we cut the AC on water was dripping from the ceiling and the carpet was soaked with water. We had many people in our house trying to fix it with no success. To be fair we got a discount on our rent for one month but only because we asked for it since we could not use the AC and it was very hot in the house. After weeks of attempts to fix the AC they offered us to move in to the townhome right next to us and they offered also to pay for our move. When I checked the price for rent on this unit online it was $ 450.00 cheaper than ours but it was exact the same house when I called the Management and asked her about the rent she said it will be the same then the one we were living in right now??? How could that be??? After we were going back and forth with them they offered to give us the house next door $ 400.00 cheaper. Before we made a decision they finally could fix the AC so we decided to stay in our house and asked if we could get a lower rent on our house since the other one was exact the same but $ 450.00 cheaper and they also didn’t had to pay for our move but they did not wanted to give us a lower rent. I be honest I feel a little iffy about this business with the rent because I also heard from other people that we are the ones that pay the most for our home. Don’t know how to feel about that but find it very confusing and I feel a little cheated.

We have lived here for 2+ years. The property is well maintained, and any issues are dealt very quickly. One big plus is the property’s no smoking policy. Poor communication from a relocation company is not a reason to give this complex a poor rating.

Let me just say this place rocks all the neighbors are great and the ladies that run this place is awesome very friendly and Helpful. tamarind square is the place to me we got in here and everybody are so cheerful everybody around are complex came to are apt and introduce there selfs like a big happy family it’s great. o would come check it out ask for Diana she rocks always happy and friendly come on bye…

We have lived at Tamarind for two years and recently renewed our lease for a third year. I think this place is great, like everywhere there are some issues but honestly we can’t complain.
We currently have a BMR one bedroom which is spacious for two people. Bathroom is big and so is the walking closet. LOVE the AC, and W/​D in unit. Due to our growing family we are hoping to move to a two bedroom townhouse. These are incredible with lots and lots of space and great natural light.
The gym has what you need, is usually not very occupied and is VERY clean. My favorite are the TVs I use when working out. The pool at times seems like a quiet little oasis.
For the most part the complex is super quiet and peaceful. This also includes the neighborhood itself. Lots of people go out for nightly strolls. Even though our apartment faces the pool the noise level is manageable and have never encountered a noise problem after hours.
When the management is there and do not have a temp they tend to be friendly, helpful and prompt with their responses and we only ever had a real problem with one guy, who quickly left. The maintenance staff is super friendly too and tends to be on top of the request.
Overall I have really enjoyed living here and hope to continue. It is a nice community.

We lived there for a few months and it was our first apartment home in the US.
they just got new staff members and both Marissa and Diana are great, they are nice and response to every need to question that you have.
we had a 2 bdrm «townhouse» that is on the second floor and it had tons of space, the light from outside of good in the living room and in the master bedroom, in the kitchen and the other bedroom the light was fair, this very much depends on where is your apartment is pointing to.
the complex is super clean and well maintained! maintenance are very responsive and doing everything to perfection.
I’ve read some complaints about the fact that they charge you for stuff when you are leaving. it’s true and it’s in some way a bummer. but when we got in to the apartment it was feeling like it was brand new. we have a new carpet, fresh paint and new appliances. when we moved out they only charged us on steam cleaning the carpet because we kept the apartment clean and didn’t mess the paint. so the old management might be more picky with what they charged, it did leave the apartment and the entire community super clean and nice.
you have a 365 days a year heated pool and hot tub which is awesome! and a 24 hour Gym.
another great factor is the fact that in the night everything is well lit! when you take your dog out at night it feels safe and secure.
i really loved it and the only reason we left is because we wanted an apartment with no stairs and they didn’t have one available at that time.
there is a $ 50 monthly pet rent which is not cool since it’s just paying them another $ 50 for nothing really.
you have plenty of parking and 1 reserved parking spot (which is a little narrow, but OK)
to summarize it all i would definitely recommend giving this place a try. not the chapest place to live in, yet it does worth it!

We moved in a month ago and so far its been great. The apartment is very spacious and the floorplan with the bedrooms upstairs is nice. The walls also seem to be pretty well insulated since we don’t hear any noise from our neighbors. The only complaint I have is that there is no bathroom on the main floor, which is inconvenient when you’re lazing on the couch watching tv or when guests come over. The stairs up to the apartment are also fairly steep. We have 2 cars and finding parking hasn’t been an issue, though parking spaces tend to be tight.
The staff has been very responsive and helpful. We had a couple of minor maintenance issues when we first moved in and the maintenance staff fixed the issues within a day. Rent is high, but the apartment is nice and the location convenient.

I like this place. I am delighted to have my own washing machine, I enjoy swimming in the pool and we have nice views around. I have enough space in my apartment (it’s a first floor), the kitchen is really comfortable area for me, apartments are spacious with big closets, looked brand new when we moved in. It is pleasant to see a clean yard every day. Staff is friendly, helpful and kind.
I am happy to live here.

Love this apartment complex, it is conveniently located between Highway 237 and 101 in a nice quite neighborhood. They allow pets which is a major plus for animal lovers. The staff here are all very friendly and accomodating and try their best to ensure the happiness of their guests. I’ve lived in many apartments before where parking and noise was a huge issue; but living in Tamarind Square I don’t have to worry about that.

This place is NOT luxury at all! They may advertise that they are, but they are not!
1) The walls are paper thin. You can hear everything! Neighbor to the left, could hear them in their bedroom, neighbor on the right, nonstop barking dogs, neighbor upstairs, loud stomping and uncontrollable crying baby.
2) Management does not care about the tenant’s needs. Complained several times about our noisy neighbors and nothing ever happened.
3) Parking spots are tight, and far from the unit.
4) 1bd is like living in a cave. No natural sunlight at all.
5) Appliances are not luxury items. Counters are cheap laminate and the appliances are loud and worked half the time.
6) This complex is filled with children. If you love having children play and scream in the courtyard right outside of your unit, constantly staring into your unit, then this is the place for you.
7) Gym is the size of my bedroom with only a few basic machines and some free weights.
8) There are trees everywhere so if you want a satellite, not going to happen!
9) Last but not least, they charge you an arm and leg when you move out. They sent me a letter telling me that I was responsible for the last months rent when they had already rented out the unit. $ 1,300 in damages/​cleaning fee for move out costs. Are you kidding me???
For the price this place charges for «luxury living», you can and WILL find better elsewhere. I’m just sad I never left sooner.

This place is awful. It is no wonder why there are so many vacant units. The apartment feels like a dark cave, parking is far from the unit, the walls are paper thin, and the noise from the fountain and pool are intolerable. On many occasions I have had people staring into my apartment from the patio at the leasing office by tamarind square staff– CREEPY!!!
Further, how can you call your apartment luxury living when you have no luxury items. The gym is a poor excuse for a gym with only a few machines, the counter tops are not real granite (they are cheap laminate), the painters did a pathetic job and spilled paint all over the walkways, there are spiders everywhere, we even had a random pipe coming out of the ceiling in the bathroom that did not go to anything. This place was WAY OVERPRICED!!!

Lived here for about a year when it was brand spanking new and then the service, staff and apartment complex went down hill.
I left as soon as my contract was up, I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, you can find better places for the prices they charge.

Very nice complex in a quiet area of Sunnyvale. We’re in a 2BR 2BA townhome and are amazed at the lack of noise from the neighbors (compared to just about every other complex in the bay area). We’ve experienced friendly neighbors, responsive office staff and maintenance, and solid construction that has led to low PG&E bills and a nice sound barrier to outside noise. The only negative is the lack of a private garage (You’re assigned 1 carport and first come, first serve parking for a 2^nd vehicle). The only way you will find a more well-​built home is to bypass renting altogether and purchase a condo.

They gave me an offer to renew my lease at my current rent rate which is almost $ 300 above the rent at a comparable apartment at Avalon Silicon Valley. I declined, and they offered me a $ 75 discount. They are being very polite and understanding, but apparently delusional about the prospects. It won’t take much time or effort for me to move to Avalon Silicon Valley, which is 2.5 miles away, but I am really surprised that they are not willing to keep a tenant who is always on time with the rent and has never caused a single problem. If they would rather keep the rate high at the risk of increasing the number of vacancies, I am not in the position to judge, and I am certainly happy that my lease is up and I am free to move and save on rent. I have to admit, I am a bit put off by the situation, hence the rating drop.

For the price you can find better places. Not worth the price. I just chose there because it was close to work.
We rented a 1 bedroom which are situation under the 2 bedroom units. The 1 bedrooms are like a cave and you don’t get any sunlight. Moreover the prices they charge there are not realistic considering you get laminate counter tops. Really? this is not a luxury place. Don’t be fooled by the model units.
Also the 2bedrooms only have 1 bathroom which is only on the second level.
I had a barking dog who I had to complain about 4 or 5 times but they did nothing about it. The dog barked for 2 – 3 hours straight.. .I’m not kidding. Luckily they moved out finally, but the staff could not do anything more than leave a note on the door. I had things stolen off my patio and dog pee on my front door area. All I’ve commented to the staff and they just ignored.
The staff seem friendly at first before you sign the lease but they are not a top service complex. The maintenance guy is completely rude and the manager’s children run around the complex bouncing basket balls off your car. No joke!
Moreover, when you move out they nit-​pick every single dust mark and said they are going to charge you $$$$ (hundred) of dollars to clean the place.
Very unprofessional staff.. . I had a bad experience there and I’m a model A tenant. I always pay my rent on time, no loud partying and I don’t let my dog poop all over the complex.
