The staff in every department is phenomenal-proficient while being receptive, warm and caring. The front office provides a welcoming environment no matter what the issue and more often the issue is a friendly greeting or dog treat choice. David in Leasing has been particularly helpful while Susan and Julie at the front desk are always there to assist with a smile. Renee runs maintenance and knows all about these buildings in and out and Fabio and Jose will fix any needs quickly and more than willingly. There are more names I have left out in the office (apologies!) and grounds but see them maintaining the property so that it is always clean and beautiful. Not forgetting Security staff. Everyone with a good attitude. My genuine point is the staff greatly contributes to what makes Shores special and different from other complexes. But there is more!! The views cannot be beat and the location adjacent to the beach, Marina and Abbot Kinney as well as not far but still walkable(for some) a cute Caruso outdoor mini mall with a TJs REI and restaurants across the street. There is a huge private inner courtyard with pool and various amenities. The apartments as I already mentioned are well maintained as well as well appointed. I have not had any noise issues within the building but in truth live on the top floor so cannot personally speak to overhead noise. There is an inviting lounge area next to the office where you can get some gratis coffee to wake up before 1pm. If this review seems embarrassingly over effusive the fact remains that I have been very happy living here and hear the same from many of my fellow residents and stand solidly behind my 5 star review.

The staff and management is AMAZING, every single one of them, Jimmy, David, Sue, Suzan, Julie, Vanessa and Ali... they always have a smile, are cordial and go above and beyond for the residents. The service crew, cleaning, security ... wow ... always always helpful, cheerful, everyone is cheerful and has pride in their work. The gym is extremely well equipped, the business center is located strategically with spectacular views, and the lounge area is elegant and inviting... not to mention the delicious morning coffee!! Walking to amazing restaurants and through the Marina is the cherry on top! Consider yourself one of the luckiest people in the world if you get to call home this dream place... Shores Marina Del Rey!

I just celebrated my 3-year anniversary of tenancy at AMLI Marina del Rey and it just keeps getting…read morebetter and better! I am thoroughly enjoying my early retirement here at AMLI and feel like I'm at a secluded luxury vacation resort every day. I plan to make this my forever home after living in Beverly Hills and Bel-Air my entire life, AMLI wins hands down. One of the most impressive aspects of AMLI is the exceptional tenant care and genuine kindness from the spectacular staff who we fondly refer to as our AMLI FAMLI. Before I rave about my overall experience as a tenant, I would be remiss not to take a moment to recognize and express my sincere gratitude to the "entire" AMLI staff. My dedicated Leasing Agent, Christhel, always greets me with her bright joyful smile even on her worst day. She takes great pride in promptly satisfying me without fail and consistently goes above and beyond to exceed my expectations which has further enhanced my experience exponentially. I have also worked with Bridgette, Vanessa, Glenda, and Naja who are all very special and extremely helpful as well.   Last but certainly not least is Jeremy who oversees the complex and its nearly 600 apartment units. Jeremy is the captain of the ship and leads by example. For those of you who have managed your own homes, imagine managing nearly 600 apartment homes, not an easy job by any means. Jeremy tackles every issue utilizing his highly impressive problem-solving and managerial skills, always executing with superior professionalism and kindness. There is no shortage of fun adventurous activities at AMLI. A typical day for me includes a light breakfast and coffee on one of my two waterfront balconies, workout at our "Equinox-esque" three story Fitness Center, swim at one of our heated saltwater pools, hot tub, healthy lunch at The Hive on property, bike ride to the beach, my favorite out-of-body sunset sailing adventures, unwind on my balconies, culminating with a short stroll to one of my regular fine dining spots in the neighborhood. I no longer feel the need to take nearly as many vacations and have saved a tremendous amount of money as a result. If you are considering moving to the marina or anywhere on the westside for that matter, look no further. I thoroughly researched the entire westside and Marina del Rey marketplaces for years before I made my final decision to call AMLI my home. Do yourself a favor and schedule a no obligation tour with the leasing office today just in time for summer although year-round living is also pure heaven! If you have any questions concerning AMLI from a tenant's perspective, I have plenty of free time, please feel free to text me at (310) 801-6088 and I'll be happy to help you, or call the leasing office. Best of luck on your new life journey! Mahalo .... James

As a first time boat owner (out of state purchase in progress! ), I can attest that the information…read moreoverload is 100% nerve-racking. When I called the Waves a few days ago, I spoke with their dock master, Chase... mind you, this was the first marina I called, so I didn't know what to expect. Not only was he able to answer all my questions about the lease (standard), the amenities (sparse), and available slips (online), but when he found out I'm about to step into my first boat, he went above and beyond. He let me in on some of the hidden costs of boat ownership, nuances in survey reports and slip choice, how to participate in the boatter community, and even differences between documents--all worries I had secretly avoided. I literally found myself taking notes! I had a list of marinas (10+) I wanted to scope out, so I thanked him for his time and went about my business. As I made more calls, not only did I feel less frazzled by the process, but I was actually kind of impressed that most of the information stuck, and I found myself asking better questions. If I end up with my boat at the Waves, I'm very much so looking forward to meeting the guy in charge! And if you're reading any of these reviews about you (stellar!), please know how impactful that interaction was for me. So, thank you, Chase--much appreciated. Keep up the good work, sir!

I'd definitely consider moving here based on my experience with her and the leasing staff alone and would absolutely recommend anyone looking to move to MDR to come check this place out. It's an older building, not pet friendly, but very well maintained from what I could see, and while it doesn't have a/c - I think the proximity to the water and the amenities offered still make the price of the units seem well worth it. Definitely impressed also by the amount of guest parking available too. Thanks Larissa!

Mirabella is hands down the worst place I have ever lived. Now that I have moved out, I feel safe…read moreenough to finally leave a review. I lived there for two years. First of all, the building itself is not safe. Despite the promise of "security" which we pay for, there is always homeless either right outside of the building or in the garage. One time, a homeless person was in my assigned parking spot. Another time, a homeless person broke into my car and stole stuff out of the glove box. As a female who lived alone there, I felt extremely unsafe. If you live at Mirabella, you can expect all of your packages to be stolen. The thieves have gone as far as breaking the door to the package room. More than once, they have taken everything in that room. More often than not, if I did not go grab a package immediately after it arrived, it would be stolen. I can't even tell you how many times I lost important packages. Because the carriers had proof of delivery, there was nothing I could do about it. Next, don't get me started on the cockroaches. There were at least five different occasions in which roaches were in my apartment. I believe the reason the cockroaches were a recurring problem in my unit is because it was next to the trash chute...a trash chute that was rarely properly cleaned. Management and maintenance did nothing about it. They said multiple times they would reach out to pest control but never did. Why? Because they aren't even on site. Management is at a different Essex property (Aqua) across the street. If you need anything, expect to be ignored both through phone and email. When it came time for my lease renewal, they never even signed it then attempted to charge me for their negligence when I moved out. Thankfully, I had receipts of my repeated attempts to contact them about signing my lease with no response, and they finally honored that and waived the exorbitant fees they tried to charge me. Speaking of cleaning, you can expect dog feces and urine to be everywhere. In the stairwells, in the halls, in the elevator, in the garage. You name it, it will be there. This property is extremely unsanitary. Also note that many of the 5 star reviews are from people whose location is Texas. To me, that's suspicious. Tl;dr -- Avoid Mirabella at all costs.
