Stay Away
December 9, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
I’m writing this so people understand the safety issues at Torreyana that you won’t see in the photos or brochures.
I had two separate security incidents here:
1. First, there was a break-in attempt at my front door.
My Ring camera caught everything – someone at my door, tampering with the lock, clearly trying to get in. I reported it to the office right away expecting serious concern, some kind of security action, and at minimum a proper follow-up.
2. Then there was a successful break-in ...
through my kitchen window.
Not long after the first attempt, someone actually got into my apartment through the kitchen window. I came home to see the damage and wreckage inside. I have Ring footage, photos of the aftermath, and a police report documenting all of this. This wasn’t paranoia or “just noise” – it was a real break-in.
Management’s response to all of this was honestly the worst part. Rather than taking accountability or treating it like a serious safety issue on their property, they did everything they could to push the situation away from themselves and distance the property from responsibility. Communication was slow, minimal, and felt more like legal protection for them than concern for a resident who had just had their home violated. There was no real sense of urgency, no meaningful solutions, and no ownership beyond the bare minimum.
On top of that, the location itself is a problem. Torreyana sits extremely close to Tropicana, which has a steady flow of transients and sketchy activity in the surrounding area. There are people wandering around nearby at all hours, and you feel that as a resident. The environment around the building is not safe, and my experience reflects that. A gate and nice landscaping do not change the reality of what’s happening right outside.
To be fair, the property and units look nice. The interiors are decent and the community presents well on the surface. But none of that matters when:
• You’ve had a break-in attempt AND an actual break-in
• You’ve had to file a police report
• You have Ring footage and evidence of the wreckage inside your own home
• And management’s response is to distance themselves instead of stepping up
In my experience, the combination of the unsafe surroundings and the lack of real accountability from management makes this a hard no.
