    I have lived here for 7 or 8 years now! The first few years were spent in an amazing 3rd floor vaulted ceiling unit, but they wanted to renovate the unit so they offered for us to transfer our deposit and lease to a different unit. We are now living on the second floor in an upgraded unit (I will always miss the vaulted ceilings but this unit is very nice too). During my time so far, the ownership/management has changed three time, lots of renovations and construction throughout the property over the years, but it's the most beautiful I've ever seen it and the amenities are incredible! I use the gym nearly every morning, it's extremely nice and thoughtful in design. The pool and spa areas are gorgeous and resort-like. There's a cool looking art studio that I haven't used, but it's there for any artists! I appreciate the dog spa, it's awesome knowing I can take my dog there anytime. There is also a hiking trail with beautiful views that leads to Barbara's Lake (OC's only natural lake). The office staff are attentive and clearly love their job. Most of the office staff have been here for years, so not only are they knowledgeable, they are dedicated and they care. Living in an apartment community for as long as I have, you do run into issues with noisy neighbors, or even scary neighbors from time to time. The office staff have always been very supportive and helpful in those circumstances. The only cons I would give this place are how thin the walls, ceiling, and floors are. Depending on what type of unit is above you (carpeting or hard floor) you will very much hear your upstairs neighbors. Rent does increase yearly, however, it's within legal standing and never a surprise. I am very grateful to live in such a safe and beautiful community. I couldn't picture myself anywhere else in this area, which is why I have stayed for so long!!!

    I've only been here a little over a month but I'm really happy with my choice to live here. It's not the least expensive place to live but the location is outstanding if you like the outdoors. They are set against the hills of Laguna. Trails are steps away so hiking, running and biking are very easy. Straight shot four miles to the beach. Lots of other great amenities: pools, gym, dog park come to mind. The apartments are unusually laid out, in semicircles, with lots of greenery. It feels very peaceful and inviting. Lalaine put up with my repeated visits as I homed-in on this place and she made it all very easy when I made my choice. She's also been very helpful getting me familiar with the place. The apartments have interesting layouts as well due to the unusual shapes of the buildings and I'm very happy with the apartment I landed. It had a few mechanical issues after move-in but the staff were very quick to make everything right. The cons are very few: electric stove, maybe? I'm adapting, lol. That's about it. Very happy with my decision to live here.

    This is after dishwasher was run. Appliances are old and do not work properly.

    What a nightmare it has been living here. First, I became very sick since moving in and have been covered in itchy hives from head to toe for 10 months now. When we have gotten out of the apartment and stayed elsewhere overnight, my hives have completely disappeared. There is a musty smell in our room and after bringing all of this to management's attention, they refused to have our apartment properly tested for mold but sent ATI, a remediation company instead who does NOT do mold testing (see photo). The grounds are horribly maintained (see photos) and appliances are old and do not work properly even after maintenance comes out to "fix" them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Management blatantly ignores emails and never answers their phone.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Do not move in here!

We stayed in the Yellow cottage and it was just perfect for three of us. The king size bed was very comfy and even the pullout couch was surprisingly decent and comfortable. The linens and towels were upscale. Very fresh and clean. Kitchen had beyond the few basics including dishes, flatware, full size fridge with freezer, and a nice coffee maker to make fresh coffee. The location was ideal because it was so quiet-no noise from PCH. Very close to town, just a few minutes' drive. Very good communication and tips on staying at the cottages. Sean was extremely helpful and very prompt with replies. Some of the one star reviews are quite outdated. Years ago. Both the living room and bedroom of our yellow cottage had wonderfully quiet ceiling fans and there was air-conditioning. We stayed in a particularly warm November of 2025 and kept the windows slightly a jar all day and even in the evening - it was ideal. FYI: The front entrance has quite a few stairs. Steep stairs. There's a back entrance accessed via the high school parking lot that made it easier to load and unload, but still a bit of a challenge for us seniors with rolling suitcases (and a recent hip replacement ;)). Still, we managed and would definitely stay here again!

After 14 1/2 years, Marea is my home and I've enjoyed every year of it The Property Manager, Dawn O'Brien, Is not only the most affable person I've ever met in a Leasing Office, but she has a real gift for hiring exceptional talent to help in the day to day running of such a large operation. If you've ever leased or rented in a large complex like Marea, then you know the importance of the Leasing Associates and how they absolutely determine your living experience at a complex and the enjoyment you'll receive from your Residency there. High turn-over, cranky.....or mad-at-the-world associates who just show up always make me feel bad if I have a request of some kind. Like I'm bothering them. But I've never felt that sentiment here and the Staff is always happy to answer any Q's you have, entertain any reasonable request, or fulfill any needs or requirements you have, and they do it with a smile in the most congenial manner possible. Are you kidding me I'd also like to give my thanks to the entire maintenance staff here. Fernando has been here since I moved here in 2012 and I'm always glad to see him come through the door if I have a maintenance issue to be fixed. He does exceptional work, is very clean and organized and he always, and I mean always, offers to take my garbage out to the dumpster when he leaves. Are you kidding me? Where else can you get service like that? Now if I could just get him to wash my car......... So if anyone out there is thinking of a lease or rental here at Marea, I want to assure you that you'll enjoy your time here as much as I have. The amenities are unbelievable, the location is one of the most beautiful in SoCal and because so many residents also enjoy living here, it's not a rental, is their home and people are always more welcoming and friendly in their homes. That's the environment you'll experience here. Finally, no one asked me to write this so it's unsolicited, but I wanted to do something nice for Dawn and her staff so I figured this is a good way to go.
