Coral Waters is an older apartment complex in my city, but has been maintained well as of recent. It's located next to a canal, so there tends to be a bug problem every now and then, and thanks to frequent thunder storms and torrential downpours in here in southwest Florida there there is a fair share of frogs and land crabs roaming the grounds and walls of the hallways. Rent prices could be cheaper given that it's an older building, but considering its proximity to the beach, and many other
...places of interest in the heart of Fort Myers, the prices can definitely be considered more than reasonable.
The community pool is well maintained and the staff is always visibly at work improving the complex, so I must give credit where credit is due. The Tennis Court/Basketball court is a nice amenity but is not attended to by the staff. The washer/dryers are conveniently located right outside your doorstep in your hallway, but it's only 2 washer/dryer units shared by 4 doorsteps, so pick the right day to do laundry.
That being said, the convenient location off the washer/dryer being right outside your doorstep in a hallway means they're also susceptible to the aforementioned frogs, land crabs, and bugs in general. Never a fun sight when you're about to throw your clothes in a washer covered in little bugs that roam from the Forrest across from your building.
There is a gas station with a Dunkin' Donuts within walking distance of the complex which is much appreciated. I've taken advantage of this many mornings when going out for an early jog.
If you want affordable living within 10/15 minutes to the beach (depending on traffic, of course) then this is right up your alley. Once again, it is an older building, but well maintained, with a select few perks. I would recommend these apartments depending on who the person is, but can't say that everybody would enjoy living here. The community is full of generally nice people, and the office staff is kind and helpful. Halfway through my first year long lease I have had little problems living here, but can't say for sure if I'll be renewing the lease when it's up.
