My wife and I have lived at the Artisan over 13 years. A new owner and management company took over in December, 2015. They have made many improvements and have greatly upgraded this apartment complex. Looking good both inside and outside. Buildings newly painted. Place has a more modern look. Many new palm trees. Other new trees. And flowers. Nice landscaping is ongoing. We recently got a new air conditioning system and a new ceiling fan. Hallways are looking good. Fitness center also.
... The new owner is really GETTING THINGS DONE RIGHT!
Last summer there was a noise problem, for at least some people, because of many workers making many improvements. Anyway, that noise is long gone. Not even an echo remains. And neighbors are quiet. Also, there are dogs in complex, but you hardly ever hear them.
Also factor in the great location. Quick freeway access. Close to Bella Terra. Near Old World Village. And a nearby community college.
Short drive to South Coast Plaza. Don't forget the beach. And, if you live in Huntington Beach, you can get an inexpensive yearly parking pass for city beaches.
In apartment living, no place is perfect for everybody, and there will always be a few unhappy ones (who tend to complain, often about trivial things). Every place has a few of those, but most people at The Artisan are happy and most whine not.
The community manager, Robin, as well as her staff, Jennifer, Lainey, and Ryan, are all super good and super nice.
A 96 percent occupancy rate probably says more than I or any other "reviewer" can. The Artisan speaks well for itself.
In short, a very nice place. And a good value for your money.
