"Bay Parc has been a fantastic experience, largely thanks to the exceptional maintenance team. They respond promptly to any issue, big or small, ensuring a hassle-free living environment. Their professionalism, efficiency, and clear communication make them stand out. I highly recommend Bay Parc to anyone looking for top-notch maintenance services and a great place to call home."

"I don't usually write reviews, but I believe it's important for potential tenants to have a comprehensive understanding before deciding where to invest their money. After all, we're not just seeking a living space but also piece of mind and tranquility. At Bay Parc, my rent was approximately $2,640, escalating to around $3,000 with parking and trash fees. Now, living elsewhere for the same amount, I realize the discrepancies in value and quality. Here are the primary issues I encountered at Bay Parc: Pest Infestations: Despite being an older building, I was unprepared for the severity of the cockroach problem. Even after professional treatments, the issue persisted. Imagine this — it's midnight, you're half asleep, craving a glass of water. You stumble into the kitchen, flick on the light, and it's like the cockroach apocalypse in there. Disgusting! Security Concerns: The lack of effective security became painfully apparent through personal experiences. Firstly, my two bicycles were stolen right under the security camera, using a power tool. I reported the incident to the police, but unfortunately, Dave, the concierge at that time, showed a lack of interest in providing the security footage. Secondly, I witnessed my neighbor's car being stolen right before my eyes. To give you an idea of how scared I was, picture this: You're coming home from work around 1:30 AM, waiting for an SUV to move so you can drive up the ramp and park in your spot. You flash your lights to signal them, but they don't move, so you wait. Suddenly, two very big guys with ski masks jump out of the car, one yelling "GO, GO, GO" at the other, who was attempting to start my neighbor's car. Both storm off, leaving behind a plastic leg with some type of metal bars at the spot where the car was parked (see pictures below). At that time, there was at least a night concierge to report emergency incidents; now, there is none. Oh, and I almost forgot, someone got shot by the pool in August, it even made it on miamilifestyle... Water Leaks: These occur quite often, leaving you to contend with the nuisance of loud drying equipment. One day, I came home to find myself stepping into a puddle of water, the result of my neighbor's pipes bursting. The walls in the kitchen, bathroom, and hallway were all soaked, and it took three days of drying with some VERY loud equipment to resolve the issue (see pictures below). Every once in a while, you'll notice these machines in the hallways. Move-Out Costs: Despite having my apartment professionally cleaned at my expense, I was charged a $129 cleaning fee and $326 for wall painting. I understand that this is becoming the new norm in Miami, but still... My advice to potential renters is to carefully evaluate both your future home and its management company to ensure your investment truly offers the peace of mind and quality of life you deserve. As for me, I've learned the true value of my hard-earned money and will NEVER consider another Aimco property in the future."

"Good location for many reasons. Most residents are very friendly. But the worst part of living here is the lack of security. There is no one in the lobby monitoring who comes in and out of the building. The concierges who roam the lobby are friendly enough but they mostly just play on their cellphones and look bored out of the their minds. The gates to the resident levels of the parking garage are frequently broken so anyone can break into/steal your car or scooter. Considering how many people walk around this area who seem homeless or just downright dangerous, that is a recipe for disaster. Also, the entire leasing staff was given 2 weeks off for Christmas and New Years - which meant that the lobby was unmanned for 2 weeks. I'm glad for people taking holidays but leaving the building without security at night or even leasing agents by day - is just nuts given how much residents pay to live here."

"Overall experience at Bay Parc was great! The staff, specifically Catrina and Maidel, go above and beyond to help with whatever you need. The park across the street and view of the water is a great amenity. Apartments are big and balcony is also very large with relaxing views of the water."

"I just moved to Miami three weeks ago to Bay Parc and my experience has been excellent with this property and their staff. I want to say Ryan did a great job helping me find my unit. After I moved in, Carlos the Property Manager went above and beyond on the day that my stuff arrived to ensure my move in went smoothly with my movers. I can’t say enough how grateful I am for their help. Moving is always stressful and they definitely help alleviate that stress on that day! Thank you so much!"
