    This was the first place that came up in my Google search before relocating to Fort Myers from Alabama—and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The team has been an absolute pleasure to work with, and it truly feels like home. The location is also incredibly convenient, with easy access to shopping and dining.

    The Retreat at Vista Lake is a quiet place to live. Although, my initial move in day was kinda bland. The agent who gave me my keys didn't feel like she wanted to be at work that day. But besides that, its an okay community.

    Also, I’m paying $100 a month for water. I was told it was divided by the number of apartments in the building. I’m paying for somebody else’s water. I paid more for my water than I do electric. Somethings wrong there.
