    We moved into this community this August, which is a fantastic place. The staffs, especially their manager, Amarra, are very professional. Just give an example. The air-conditioner did not work yesterday, and I mailed the manager for help. It was already 5:30 pm, and the maintenance team fixed the air-conditioner before 6:00 pm. My family loves this community.

    When my key was stuck in the door lock, Juan showed up quickly and took care of it. His positive attitude is infectious. Thank you, as always, for your fast and efficient maintenance and happy employees.
