    5/5 Anonymous on Sep 1, 2023

    I have lived here a little over a year and the staff are great when ever something needs to be fixed or replaced they come in a very timely manner and are very nice, as well as front staff personal. The location is great everything is 8-10 min away with close access to I-10. The surrounding living areas are kept clean and so are the laundry facilities. The pools are a good size and not to packed. It is my first time living in an apartment setting and so far I have had a great experience here at Cantera Apartments.

    I have lived here for about 2 years. The maintenance staff is easy to work with and quick to respond. The management recently updated the tennis courts to pickleball courts and I cannot wait to use them!

    We have lived here since 2016 and we love the area and how peaceful and quiet the neighborhood is.

Renting in El Paso, TX
