I've been living here for almost 3 years now. While it's listed on here as "Apartments", the place…read moreis actually a bunch of condos. We have a private owner that we work directly with on anything from rent to maintenance. The grounds are pretty well kept. A lawn crew is out there once a week and there's a maintenance crew that's always out and about fixing whatever is needed. Every few months the place is pressure washed and repainted. There's usually plenty of parking here. All parking areas are well lit. I can tell you there's a gym here, although I've never been to it, a pool, a tennis court, and a car wash port. The pool is pretty nice. Just be careful if you try to go to the pool after hours. There's a bunch of cranky old people that live around it and they'll threaten to call the cops on you, even if you're not actually disturbing anyone. The only downside is that some of the people that live here are pretty dumb. I'm not sure how so many people struggle with using a trash compactor. It's pretty common to see trash piled up in front of it because people don't push their trash all the way into the compactor, so it just builds up right in the front. The management has posted notices on everyone's door explaining the proper usage, but people are still failing. Overall, it's a nice place. If you can find an open unit, it's a cheap option for staying in a great area of Longwood.

The leasing process was smooth and convenient, especially since my husband and I were able to…read moresecure a unit before arriving in the area. Unfortunately, our experience has gone downhill since move-in. On our first day (Friday), the AC wasn't working and couldn't be addressed until Monday. In the meantime, we were given loud portable AC units that only cooled the bedrooms. Maintenance spent about three days attempting repairs and replacing parts, but for nearly five days, the apartment temperature ranged between 78 and 85 degrees. Even now, the AC struggles to go below 72 degrees. While that may not seem extreme, we pay for electricity, including AC, and should be able to set it to a comfortable temperature. When I raised this concern, the maintenance staff became frustrated and suggested we were using the thermostat incorrectly, despite following both provided instructions and additional research. There have been several other issues as well. The washer barely agitates, regardless of the setting or load size--even with a single blanket. The front door is extremely difficult to close and lock, requiring significant effort each time we leave. The garbage disposal didn't work upon move-in, although it was eventually fixed. More concerning are the safety and quality issues. I am allergic to bees, and there are wasp nests around the building and even on the balcony screen. With a visible gap in the screen, this presents a real health risk. The carpets have a noticeable odor despite appearing recently cleaned, and there are no transition strips between tile and carpet, leaving exposed gaps. There is no security. The trash is all the way at the entrance of the property and gets so full you can't put your trash in. If you get home past 530 expect to park farrrr away unless you wanna pay for parking near your building. I Moving is already stressful, and dealing with this many problems right away has made the experience worse. After reading reviews on other sites, it seems these issues are not isolated. I'm sharing this so others can make an informed decision. While some may have positive experiences here, this has been mine. Update: Another maintenance worker told us that the AC will not get colder than 20 degrees colder than outside. So if it gets to 100 degrees outside it will be 80 in the apartment. I can't wait to leave this place.

Every…read moretime I visit, I am wowed by the beautiful lobby, and I'm always noticing something new so I believe they rotate new artwork pretty often. It seems like a lot of thought was put into every detail at the Vue and it shows. The shared areas feel clean and seem meticulously maintained: for example the exterior is being pressure cleaned for several months now so they seem to take their time to do things the right way. Although, I don't live here I get the impression that this place is a well oiled machine. The units are all new so understandably everything is updated. Floor to ceiling windows offer a picturesque view of the city and beyond. The Vue is on the outer border of the Central Business District, giving you the best of both worlds. You can walk home after a night on the town, followed by a scenic walk around Lake Eola in the morning for brunch in Thornton Park. Cons: The higher rents are to be expected at this level of quality, however, if you want to purchase a unit the prices are through the roof (surprisingly the HOA fees aren't bad compared to similar condos in the area). It's location can also be considered a con because the intersection needs a more pedestrian feel. For example, the Waverly & Paramount are ideal in terms of pedestrian friendliness at street level. However, as downtown Orlando continues to grow, I'm sure this will be improved over time.

I love my condo at The VUE. It is one of the best buildings around Lake Eola. The gym is…read moreexceptional for a residential building, and the amenities, including the pool, cyber café, and media room, are top-notch. I enjoyed living in my studio, but eventually, I decided to purchase a house. The building is safe, clean, and well-maintained. Most negative reviews seem to come from renters who might be looking for a party atmosphere. If that's what you're after, The VUE is not the right place. The biggest downside for me has been the HOA fees. Since I purchased my unit in 2018, the HOA fees have nearly doubled, and I've faced 3-4 special assessments, which were quite an unpleasant surprise. However, I understand that the building was mismanaged for a few years in the past. If these increases are necessary to maintain the quality of the facility, I'm willing to accept them, as long as it is well-managed moving forward.
