The Manager, Nicole Mccowan, is the single most amazing, professional, courteous, gracious, and effective manager of any apartment that I have ever lived in and I have lived in over 15 apartments over the course of decades. Whether it was fixing the pool pH balance, replacing my water heater, stopping a backup in my kitchen sink, preventing a leak from behind my washing machine, anything and everything that I've ever asked for her to help me with, she had solved and completely fixed within 24 hours at the latest - she is simply amazing!

The units are very small, about 800 sq. feet. That includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a small kitchen and a very small living room, as a comparison our one bedroom apartment is double that size. Some units have been recently renewed, Front desk staff does not know how to use their computer properly, all the times we've been there they couldn't use the sign-up program. Lately we've been just walking in. One thing that I didn't expect is good tasting food, I was expecting hospital-grade and I have to say everything we ate so far was very good. I had a turkey a la king yesterday that was phenomenal.

My neighbors are friendly, management - Vonny and her team are amazing and the location is prime real estate - close to everything including the beach. The property is quiet which is ideal for adult/retiree living. Amenities include a beautiful pool (although always cold), BBQ grill, laundry room, a great room with games, ping pong table, exercise equipment, weights, sofa and chairs for lounging. The complex is well-kept and managed - Vonny does an excellent job. The Al and the maintenance team are attentive and provide a speedy response and repair to any maintenance and/or repairs. I would highly recommend Emerald West to adults/couples/retirees if it meets your needs, a place of peace and good energy. I will miss being here!

All of the neighbors were friendly, and the kids were respectful of the common areas. Very quiet at night. The maintenance staff handled all service inquiries promptly and with personal care. The property manager, Lorena, ALWAYS greeted me with a smile and a check in, which made living there feel truly like home. She went over and above her required job, even wishing me well on holidays, knowing my family was on the East Coast. My only recommendation is to convert the on-site laundry to a card system, although if keeping the coin system keeps costs low ($4 a load in 5/2026), maybe no change is needed! Ocean West is in the heart of a quiet, residential community and adjacent to a school with plenty of on street parking for guests and walkable to 711, Walmart, PetSmart, and Tokyo Central. Very close to Del Amo Mall and an 9 minute ride to the Esplanade in Redondo Beach.

I really do love it here Yes, Kaia is beautifully designed, spacious, and the amenities are thoughtful and well maintained, but the star of the show for me was Natalie! She is such a genuine person who is also so good at her job, and you can truly see how much she loves what she does. That alone is so inspiring, but she also treated us like family and helped us every step of the way, even when we came across an unexpected situation. She handled everything so professionally, but also with so much sincerity and care. In a world of AI and automated responses, that personal touch made the experience even more special. She knows all the tenants by name, and I think that says a lot. Another big shoutout to Eric for attending to our needs so professionally and personally calling me to problem solve and find the best way to serve our needs. Madeline is also great and has been so helpful! The maintenance team has also been wonderful. Chris came to help us so quickly after I submitted a ticket, and he even vacuumed the area after the work was completed, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Kaia and all of the amazing staff who made our move-in experience possible and so great!
