I have lived here for 2 1/2 years now and I love this complex. It's not the newest complex but it is one of the roomiest I have lived in and has everything you need. A nice sized kitchen with plenty of cupboard space and a pantry. Our 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit comes with your standard microwave, fridge, stove/oven, dishwasher and a washer and dryer in every unit in your laundry room in every patio. The floor plans are large and both bedrooms are about the same size where we have a king bedroom set with plenty of room to walk around. There are ceiling fans/light in both bedrooms and the living room. The dining room is large where you can have a table of 6 with no problem. Each bedroom has a patio which is really nice. With plenty of shady trees all around the apts stay nice & cool which means a reasonable power bill in the Summertime.
The staff here are great. If you need something fixed they are right on top of it and are very professional. The pool areas are nice, clean and have water & soda vending machines and a charcoal BBQ are if you want to get your grill on. There is a tennis court and indoor gym that you can use which is nice and being right by Kiwanis Park and a bike/jogging path is convenient too.
La Estancia has plenty of restaurants and fast food places very close by with a lot more options on delivery service. If you need to grocery shop you have an Albertson's less than a mile away and a Fry's aprx. 2 miles away. You also have a Super Wal-Mart, Costco, Target, Lowes & Home Depot all within a 5 minute drive.
If I have one complaint is the parking stinks. We have one assigned spot all the way out by the street near the driveway. My wife and I park in unassigned parking spots which are a lot closer to our apt. There are times where there are no places to park in the unassigned spots but plenty of empty covered parking which is assigned but never used due to vacancy I believe? I even asked if they can assign us a closer spot (I have knee problems and walk with a cane) and they said no. Come on guys, you can do better than that. Honestly, if you did away with the assigned parking and it was first come first serve, I don't think anyone would complain.
La Estancia is great on keeping the complex clean and it is pet friendly. Heck they even have pooper bags in dispensers in various areas to pick up after your animal which I thought was cool. I would definitely recommend my friends to move in if they are looking for a place to live. I'm not leaving anytime soon and am very happy to live here.
