Not worth the price
June 20, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
Roaches, roaches, roaches! I’ve lived here for two years and I can’t say that I’ve gone a month without seeing at least one roach or palmetto bug. The staff refuse to help or take any responsibility for it besides sending in pest control, which has barely made a difference. The complex is old, dirty, and barely taken care of besides lawn care in front of the buildings. I’ve never been so catfished when I compare the building where they have the model and the rest of the apartments. After years of ...
complaints from the residents, Portofino is only now updating and taking care of the property by repainting and cleaning the dark, chipped, and frankly sad looking breezeways. Because of this maintenance, they raised the rent over 30 PERCENT for the next renewals. Outraged.

Not good!!
July 15, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
Overpriced. Don’t waste your money. They don’t respond or answer the phones most of the time.
Wouldn’t recommend
March 21, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
Everything was great when looking and leasing and moving in. But if you have any sorts of problem definitely make sure you don’t get ahold on Kiyanah, her attitude is something else. Also very thin walls and horrible neighbors. They don’t deal with problems promptly you have to keep on them to get some help. Calls and emails takes a few times to get a response. They make residents feel so unwelcome and unwanted. Can’t wait to move out. Apartments are nice and updated and location is great that’s ...
the only positive. Otherwise I don’t enjoy living here :) Go somewhere else where you’re appreciated

March 15, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
2 days ago
I opted for a look and lease, glad I did. Kiyanah was my "leasing agent." I came back three times . While Kiyanah was cheerful she failed to follow through. The following account was after paying for the look and lease option. I left a voicemail on a Monday, no reply, on Tuesday I sent an email, no response. I called on Thursday, giving her another full business day to get back with me, but she didn't so I called and got a hold of her. I visited three times. My first visit was met ...
with trash strew across the entry way to the apt across from my potential apt. Not Kiyanah's fault, but noted. The gate to the opposing property to the leasing office was left open for weeks, where my potential apt resides. It was explained that maintenance didn't want to deal with a few tenants that supposedly abused the security gate, so the solution was to leave the gates open. When I pressed Kiyanah as to the logic behind such an approach I was met with a shrug. Standing water, as noted in other reviews is indeed a problem. On my third visit when Kiyanah went to open the door to the apt and the dead bolt came out, seriously. I can appreciate that this was out of Kiyanah"s hands, but she completely failed to follow up on the concern despite her indicating that Ester would follow up with me. The lack of professionalism was a "no" for me, even though I am out $200. Also, please don't respond to this with a canned response. I shared this verbally with Keyanah, she seemed bewildered. If I can't depend on the leasing agent to follow through before I sign the lease then what incentive do I have to sign the lease? This was my honest experience. Furthermore the pictures seen on most websites don't represent 90% of the apartments on location. You can expect carpet and dated appliances. If you want the updated units expect to pay a premium. That said I would not recommend this apartment complex

Terrible expierence
August 15, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
This is by far the worst apartment complex I’ve ever lived in. When I moved in my AC broke three times in four days. Until I finally told them that I wanted out of my lease and if I had to get an attorney I would just to be able to move out so I can have AC working properly it was finally fixed correctly. A couple of the maintenance guys are really good at their job and they know what they’re doing but unfortunately the office staff and managers are terrible at their job and they treat their ...
residents like garbage. I definitely will not be moving renewing my lease at this apartment complex. I definitely don’t recommend this apartment complex.

Roaches

Love the apartment but hate the roaches... Apartment, landscaping and pool are great but the roaches are out of control.
Good Luck
July 18, 2017 - Review from Apartments.com
My boyfriend and I had our lease signed for about 2 months before our move in date and were told we could move in on the 5th. We arrive that morning and they not only have no idea who we are, they tell us we aren't supposed to move in until the 15th and claimed it was a typo; even though the woman who helped us told us in an email, verbally, and on the lease the move in date was the 5th.They told us they had another apartment available and showed it to us so we could still move on that day. ...
Everything seemed fine and we decided to sign a new lease for the new apartment. (this apartment was more expensive than the one we originally signed for, they should have cut the loss but they didn't) We start to get everything moved in and I started to notice my throat feels like it's closing and I just can't breathe. I dismiss it as dust and dander(from cat hair) from our furniture which we cleaned. I keep popping claritin hoping they'd help and they didn't. I slept for 5 hours that night and that was the only night I slept there. I asked some friends what it could be and everyone said to check for mold, sure enough we found mold throughout the AC unit and air ducts. I went into the office to inform them of this so they could hire someone to come out and clean it professionally and they told me it wasn't a priority, they would probably get to it Monday. I told them I couldn't breathe and I even brought in a plastic bag with a paper towel with mold on it I they still told me there was nothing they could do. The woman even told me that "maybe if I get a doctors note we can do something about it." and "it was probably just allergies and they would go away." The next day my boyfriend brought his mom, step-dad, and my dad to the office so they could better discuss solutions since neither of us have ever rented and all of our parents were extremely upset over the situation. They gave us less than a week to find a new place and move to get a full refund of the money we spent to move in.
Other than the mold, terrible staff, and inexperienced maintenance, like most peoples reviews have said, the walkways FLOOD when it rains. The stairs become insanely slippery, the sidewalks turn into rivers, and all the grass areas turn into swamp. Not to mention the roof is leaking and my boyfriend could hear water dripping inside the walls when it was raining.
I wouldn't recommend moving here. Especially for the money and area, you can find a lot better.

Awesome
October 7, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
The Apartments are spacious, well maintained, quiet, and in a safe community with a lot of amenities. They are extremely pet friendly and we haven't had any complaints since we moved in which was back in April 2012. I would highly recommend them to anyone. We're close to restaurants and shops and the highway.
Many advantages of living here
October 4, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
The portofino apartments has been a good place to live. Its location is convenient since it is near Bruce B Downs Blvd which is filled with restaurants, grocery stores, and all other services that someone can ever need. I was new to the area and found out about these apartments online. The management office has been helpful in getting me settled and ensuring that all paperwork was in order. They are also very responsive to any questions which I had. The maintenance dept is very efficient and ...
are quick to attend to any maintenance requests submitted with minimal interruptions. They try to cater to the needs of the tenant. The portofino has a pool recently updated gym and a tennis court which adds entertainment value to the apartments. Parking is also readily available.

Residents since 7/2014
October 4, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
My roommate and I have been living here for over a year now and have enjoyed our time here very much. The area is extremely nice compared to the University area (which, as USF students, is what we're used to dealing with), and the distance between the complex and Publix is a gigantic plus for me as I do not drive - it takes me less than 10 minutes to walk there. The office staff is very friendly and we have had very few problems with the office and maintenance staff. Our work orders have been ...
fulfilled very promptly. The biggest complaint we have had so far is that, compared to the student apartments we're used to, there are a lot of families living here, and as such, a lot of children. There have definitely been days where the loudness of some of our neighbor's children have gotten in the way of our studying, and the school buses dropping children off at the end of the day backs up traffic quite a bit. Overall, our experience with this complex has been very positive, and we're looking to stay here at least until we're done with our college programs.

Things to do everywhere!
September 25, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
Living here literally puts you in the midst of everything you can think of but still have your peace and tranquility when you go home. There is access to all kinds of eatery from McDonalds to Ruby Tuesdays to Hibachi grills like Koizi's. Walmart, Target, and Publix are no more than a ten minute drive from the area. The apartments themselves are nice. I live in the bigger one bedroom floor plan situated on the third floor and its pretty peaceful. I cant hear residents like I used to at my prior ...
complex. The ceilings are high which gives the apartment an elegant feel. This is also a gated community which was one of my needs when apartment hunting and I haven't seen it broken yet. My maintenance request usually gets done within two business days I would say, but I haven't had many issues so far. Oh yeah and there's two pools, one of each side of the neighborhood! Definitely a plus!!
