What We Found

Josfai and her leasing colleagues deliver standout service during touring and move-in, making people feel genuinely welcome. The spacious layouts and amenities like the resort pool and dog park draw five-star praise. Once you move in, however, tenants run into a stark reality: maintenance repair requests stretch into weeks despite high rent, cleanliness has noticeably dropped, the gate often sits open, and management appears slow to address neighbor noise or safety concerns. Several residents report feeling the property no longer matches its luxury advertising.

The fitness center and package room close during hours management never explains, and broken equipment sits unrepaired for months. One resident documented a cascade of problems within their first ten days: AC outage for eight days, freezer failure unresolved after weeks, and a confusing parking confrontation management did little to clarify. Staff know issues exist but say they are working on them; tenants say nothing changes.

Best for: People prioritizing move-in experience and pet-friendly luxury space over rapid maintenance response.

Common Questions About This Community

Are apartments pet-friendly?
Yes. Kimpton advertises a pet-friendly community with a dog park. However, multiple residents note that other dog owners leave waste uncleaned on property.
Is the fitness center open 24/7?
No. Fitness center access is limited to 10 AM to 6 PM weekdays and closed on Sundays. It has also been shut for extended periods for repairs (one resident reported a month-long closure for a broken lock).
Are parking spaces assigned?
Not in the parking garage. All spaces are marked 'Reserved' from previous ownership, but management did not clarify this policy to new residents, leading to confusion and conflict.

4.2(234)✓ Google-verified

A building that photographs well and leaves strong first impressions, but residents report years of unresolved mechanical failures, particularly air conditioning that management resists acknowledging. Staff turnover and communication gaps leave complaints unanswered for weeks, while security breaches and unmaintained amenities undermine the luxury positioning. Individual staff members like Mohammad, Thomas, Freddy, and select leasing agents do stand out, yet their efforts cannot offset systemic maintenance and management failures that persist across residents' tenancies. The 4.2-star average masks a stark divide: four in five reviews are five-star (often from tours), yet one in five are one-star from current and former residents documenting specific, recurring problems. A $3,000-plus-per-month rent and mandatory $75 amenity fees do not align with broken grills, defunct fireplaces, malfunctioning garage gates, thin walls, pet odors, and AC units that fail in summer heat.

Most residents report excellent upkeep and helpful staff, with Destiny, Katia, and Serita repeatedly noted for going above and beyond on leasing and problem-solving. A handful of visitors found the front desk dismissive or unprepared for tours, and one recent complaint flagged a broken gate left unfixed for a week.

1 Riva Row delivers luxury waterfront living backed by staff who treat each resident as a priority. Leasing agents Brooke, Kayla, and Taylor earn repeated praise for patience and follow-up; concierges John and AJ handle move-in with warmth. New construction means occasional defects and repair visits, but maintenance supervisor Felipe responds fast. The property shines with Bosch appliances, fourth-floor pool with waterway views, wine tastings, and a fitness studio. Those seeking attentive service and high finishes will find it here; early movers should expect a few weeks of installation fixes.
