I have been very happy here. I would recommend the complex to a friend. The staff is helpful and friendly. I enjoy the gym, pool and hot tub. The maintenance staff do need to keep up on the dog poop and cigarettes which can be very difficult I do understand.

    I had a 7 month lease here and it was just enough time for me to find somewhere else to live. This place should be named the Roaches of Clearwater. My first walk thru there were dead roaches in every kitchen cabinet. EWWW! I was told that this is because of the clean out and the roaches would be cleaned out before my move in date. Since I was in a time crunch I didn't really have time to look elsewhere. The grounds are well kept with a nice leasing office DO NOT be fooled by this it is not a reflection of the actual apartments. Other than the roach infestation and ridiculously over priced rent to live here someone may enjoy it.

      I was worried about finding a good place for relocating from New York to Clearwater. I did most of the research online and found a couple of apartments I was interested in. However, The Palms of Clearwater was always at the top of my list due to the great visual appeal and affordable rent. Once I visited for the first time I fell in love with the place. It's a quiet community. It's located in a convenient area, near restaurants, grocery stores and a few miles from the beach. My apartment was delivered in great condition and the staff has been very helpful and attentive. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family!

        Office staff was very unwilling to help with a complaint that I came to them with. They did not call me back when i placed the complaint the first or second time. I had to keep going to them to finally get someone to talk to me. No help at all with it.

          This community was great for the situation I was in. I had a week to find a place that allowed large dogs and the apartment was nice enough. The staff is great and do a good job. I wish other neighbors would take pride in the community to make it better then it is.

              I love the community. I live in a 1 bedroom apartment, it is nice but small. The maintenance staff resolves issues really fast and the office staff are kind and always helpful. Only issue is the noise, you can literally hear every car in the road

                Is a pretty good place to live because the convenient access to major roads and even if it is a little pricey is actually pretty clean neighborhood. Is a good friendly family neighborhood too. Happy happy happy happy happy happy happy happy happy......

                  Was great when the rent was cheap. This apartment is not worth the steady annual rent increases. I was shocked when my renewal rate was increased---AGAIN--- by $65. Since you need 200 characters, blahh blahh blahh blahh blahh blahh blahh blahh

                    My wife and I have enjoyed the community, the quietness,and the physical fitness facilities available for our use. Our only disappointment has been the lack of the pool being heated. The "Hot tub" is nice, but does not provide enough room to swim in it :(

                      We love living here! The maintenance crew is the best I have seen and the apartment is cute but a bit pricey for the square footage. Loving the "happy" dog environment! Really like the pool/spa/bbq/wifi area and the landscaping is beautiful.

                        Overall it was okay. The management isn't very good or understanding. They don't want to listen to reason and aren't very professional. They seem to be moving pretty much anyone in now, and the prices continue to rise even though nothing is getting better or upgraded.

                          I love the maintenence staff, glad to see Dave is back, tenants litter and I am sure it is hard for maintaining. to keep up. love the pool area, sometimes there are dogs that bark for long periods of time, and I most appreciate the promptness of problems being taken care of.

                            They made the moving process so easy. Very clean and safe community. The upgrades unit is very nice. The gated community makes me feel very safe and secure. Easy access to all amenities in the community. Close to my family and eay commute to work. Couldnt ask for a better place to call home.

I look forward to seeing what the future brings me and my family here. One thing is clear though, if any problems do arise the experienced staff will be ready to help.

                                      Finding an apartment with really good management and maintenance staff is hard to find. I am COMPLETELY HAPPY with The Palms Of Clearwater. I love my apartment (which is a corner unit) I love the management which helped me move in the same day. The leasing agents are really nice too. The maintenance staff is really really nice and helpful. JC is the maintenance manager and is very professional and courteous. Angel is another maintenance employee who is so nice and personable. Angel is very professional and courteous. I read the reviews online before doing a community tour. The reviews were not great. I have yet to experience ANY of the problems the other reviewers have complained about. All I can say is that I'm happy here and I like the staff.

                                        I would definitely recommend this complex! First and foremost, the office and maintenance staff is extremely professional and tentative! They're always on top of things and the place is always kept clean. My only issue was with the insects but the assistant manager made sure it was taken care of. If it wasn't for my family matters, I'd still be there!

                                                I'm a current resident here at the palms and I must say my stay here is a fairly smooth one. The property is always kept clean and maintenance comes in a timely manner. Aside from the children playing in the pool area because school is out, it's fairly quiet as well. I would definitely recommend this apartment complex to someone.

All the residents are very nice and the staff is very good about remembering names which makes it more personal which I love. I absolutely love the pool !
