    5/5 Austin E. on Nov 5, 2023

    I truly love my community I live in. Great neighbors, quiet, peaceful, ample parking, location is perfect in respect to privacy and access to nearby shops, perfect amenities not only for adults but kids too, and the staff are amazing. Work orders always completed in a timely manner, the property and ground are always adequately maintained. Truely an all inclusive community.

    I have lived at Montecito Carlsbad for a year. It is a very nice and safe place to live. Professional staff. Great schools and great location for commuting. I highly recommend.
