My wife and I moved in on January 1st, 2020 and moved out on May 4th, 2024. I can summarize Crystal Pointe by saying this, you will not find a better value for your money in Broward County. All the bad reviews are from people who blame Margaret (the property manager) that they discriminated against, but the truth is they weren’t able to get an apartment due to their poor credit history or lack of references. There is an amazing mix of renters from diverse backgrounds here (Jamaican, Hatian, Latino, Brazilian, AA, White), so any insinuation that a particular race is not welcome here is nonsense. The reason why the administration is so particular about who lives here is because they all live here. Margaret, her assistant Fany (who is married to Tim the head of maintenance), the lead maintenance man Virgilio and his son…they ALL live on site. My neighbors were always great and trustworthy…very family oriented. I could leave my car doors unlocked, and a couple times forgot my house keys in the door and never once did I have anything stolen.
You will RARELY find any litter on the ground. The pool area is well maintained. The gym is very dated (picture a circa 1985 high school gymnasium) but clean. Any time you need maintenance, you submit your request via their app and it will most likely be fixed by Virgilio that same day.
Rents here are always significantly less than other complexes. We were paying under $1,800/mo for a 2 bed 1.5 bath two story unit. Rents go up every year to keep up with the inflating cost of maintenance, but they never price gouge. Rents are always fair, and I promise you won’t find anything nicer in the same price range.
This is a great place to live.
