Village by the Bay

Update 2: I was contacted by an investigator from the DBPR. While the current law does not have the jurisdiction to handle all my issues with the management and board related to HOA nonsense (if you know you know), there is more transparency within the law and the department. I can respect that progress (Thank you DeSantis!). There is increased transparency and increased jurisdiction related to conflict of interest.
To be Frank Mencia, it is a case of the Usual Suspects. In any business, especially logistics, location matters. In this House of Cards, you gotta play that ace of spades to Make Kenny Rogers great again! Knock, knock (Netflix style 🤣).
Stay safe out there Patriots ✝️✡️🇺🇸☕️🩼🛥️
Update:
After some attempted “resolution” with the President and Vice President of the board, my conclusion of this place is that it has a ghetto mindset.
Stay safe out there Patriots 🇺🇸🦅🖖
Original Review:
Well-maintained facility and great mix of all generations. Beautiful scenery. Chill people.
However, your experience may vary wildly depending on current management and how many members of the board believe they are untouchable:
Current property manager:
Unprofessional and messy. Does a great job at planning, but she can’t hold water to save her life. She will talk badly about any and every person to any passerby. Some examples:
Her regional manager? Will tell all his business. Who he meets with and for how long.
Staff? Better keep your eyes down. Too many nice and pretty women around. You will be looked at like a construction worker.
Board member? You’re an octopus (take that however you want).
Have kids? Anything that child breaks will become public knowledge (if you replaced a fan recently 👀).
Her method of mediation is outright lies and telling one person one thing and another anything. Take that however you want.
Weird relationship with the current treasurer…so if you get fined. She used to body build and they have that in common, so there is that.
Will make decisions based on how many units you own. If one person owns 3 and you own 1. If you rent, chile.
Trash and mail are at times outside standard business hours.
Record everything, with permission of course.

I’ve  lived here for about 5 years and love it. It’s well run and while management can vary, it’s generally well kept. Love the views of Dumfoundling Bay and being able to see the sky. I love children and  enjoy seeing them play and  enjoy watching dogs walking with their owners. Love the fact that there are people of all kinds here. A microcosm and a generally friendly one.

Beautiful place both to live and to spend a nice vacation. Quiet and with very good amenities

I have lived in Village by the Bay for about 6 years, 3 years in one apartment and then 3 years in another. I can say that it has been one of the most pleasant experiences. You really feel like its a little "village". If you have a dog or just like taking walks you'll get to know your neighbors. People will smile, say hi, talk to you if you're up for it. The management has changed 3 times since I've been here but all have cared about their residents (renters and owners) and their well being. Dasha, who currently works there is a joy and made me feel like she had my best interest anytime that I ran into any issues, she was always available to help. I am moving out into a new condo, only because its's time for a change, but will definitely carry this place in my heart. Highly recommend it.

Excellent place to live
