Raúl is the best at keeping up with maintenance as well. In addition, Laura is quite attentive to resident needs. Only negative is maybe a couple cats wonder the premise in the middle of the night that's black and white (female I believe). It's all good though, harmless creature I'm sure. In conclusion, Parsons is a pleasant place to live, and I've referred a few fellas or acquaintances to reside here in the past. What can I say, i found a gem and glad to share the experience to others!

Dora is an incredible property manager - extremely communicative, friendly, and caring. She genuinely cares about all the residents and wants the best for everyone. The complex itself is also great! Conveniently located near great restaurants, grocery stores, the freeway, and the beach, it really is super close to everything. The one bedroom apartment my boyfriend and I lived in was renovated, quiet, and had everything we needed. If you're looking for a spot in Costa Mesa, definitely consider Mesa Pines. Even if they don't have openings, it's worth getting added to the waitlist.

My fiance and I lived here for about 5.5 years. We were in a 1BR for 4 years and a 2BR for 1.5…read moreyears. We had very different experiences both times! What I can tell you is that I cannot say enough good things about the Maintenance Manager Chris. More below! We had pretty much no problems when we were living in our 1BR (on the 2nd floor). There were a bunch of different property managers that came in and out during our time, but nothing that really impacted us. No pest issues. We did have a few issues with leaks/clogs, but Chris and Business Manager Vanessa helped us through those. Overall, a really great time living in our 1BR! The problems started when we moved into our new 2BR apartment (bottom floor). We had a couple issues with communication right from the start. We struggled to get a hold of Vanessa to sign the lease and the physical transfer form. We were unable to sign the forms until a few days before our move. Another issue was our parking spot. Before moving, our spot had furniture that needed to be thrown out from the past tenants but Vanessa communicated that it would be cleared by the time we moved. Fast forward to move-in day, there is furniture still in the spot so we were unable to have a spot to park in. After a week of living there, we reminded Vanessa and the rest of the furniture was finally moved. The final move-in issue was that we didn't have mailbox keys until 2 weeks after we moved in. Vanessa told us there was a miscommunication and the keys had been misplaced. Chris really took initiative and helped us stop the mailman so we could access our mail and continually gave us updates on what was happening. He's the best! The biggest problem for us were the pests. We had seen no pests in our old apartment, but a month living in our 2BR, we started seeing a handful of cockroaches. We let Vanessa know and she offered us a solution--a pest treatment scheduled for the following week. The preparation steps for treatment included moving everything 2-3 ft away from the walls as well as emptying all closets and cabinets. Vanessa informs us that pest control usually arrives in the late morning (10/11am) and we need to be out of the apartment for an additional 4 hours after treatment. A little difficult on a workday (especially since my fiance works from home) but we make arrangements and prepare everything. After we sign forms, we don't hear from Vanessa to confirm treatment. So we reach out to her the day before (emails and calls). Nothing. We are nervous to rearrange our entire apartment without confirmation, but we do it anyway. The morning of, Vanessa confirms pest treatment and says she'll let us know when they arrive. We leave the apartment to get work done. We check-in around noon. Nothing. We star to panic as realize we will probably be moving our apartment back late into the night. Around 1:15, she lets us know that the pest tech fell ill so they are looking for a replacement. We communicate the importance of having someone come today as our apartment was a mess. No response. At 2:30 we go to Vanessa's office physically to try to find an alternate solution. Vanessa tells us there is nothing she can do and the best thing is to wait. At 4:15 Vanessa calls us to say they were unable to find a tech. They will try to find a tech to come tomorrow but there is no guarantee. We have a bit of a heated phone call as everyone is frustrated. Vanessa confirms that the expectation is we put everything in our apartment back and move it again the next time a tech is available or to wait until the morning. We tell her that this does not work as we have already missed a day of work and our apartment was mostly unusable. Long story short, Vanessa and Chris come over to help us clear the bed so we can sleep and help clear a path to my fiances computer so he can work in the morning. They both seemed surprised at the state of our apartment. Vanessa tells us she will update us first thing in the morning if they are able to find a tech. The next day, no update. At 11AM, Vanessa tells us the vet tech is walking over to the apt. We are so relieved. But what a whirlwind! Overall, most of our difficulties here were with communication with Vanessa. We felt like she was not very responsive. And during our stressful pest experience, she made some comments that felt sarcastic. We did not feel supported and like she was on our side. Additionally, the pattern of pests was an issue for us. The pest treatment did help temporarily, but they always seemed to return. The apts are nice and spacious. Good location. Great storage! Good amenities too. I cannot emphasize how amazing Chris is! Such great customer service. So helpful and so insanely friendly. What a gem! He takes initiative, gives you updates, and explains everything thoroughly. Don't know if I'll ever meet another Maintenance Manager as great as him! THANKS CHRIS! Overall, I would rate our experience as a 3.5/5 but rounded up to 4 just for Chris. :)

I'm not sure if they are still there but stay far away from them! Management handled it as best they could. I also love the maintenance staff, William is like family to me now!

The property itself is absolutely stunning -- beautifully maintained, peaceful, and designed in a way that truly feels like a resort. From the pools to the walking paths, everything has that "Waldorf-style" atmosphere that makes you exhale the moment you step outside. What really sets this place apart, though, is the people. The residents here have been incredibly warm and friendly -- it's the kind of community where people smile, say hello, and actually make you feel welcome right away. And the staff? Truly exceptional. I have to start with the café team -- MJ, Jesse, Anna, and now Jordan. From day one, they've made us feel at home, almost like family. They go above and beyond in a way that's rare to find, and it doesn't go unnoticed. And a special note about Anna... I may have to retire from making my own soups, because hers are honestly some of the best I've ever had. You can tell there's real care and talent behind everything they serve. The head chef deserves major credit as well -- even though I haven't had the chance to meet him yet, the quality speaks for itself. The maintenance staff has also been outstanding -- professional, polite, and incredibly responsive. Saeed helped us recently, and it was honestly one of the best maintenance experiences we've ever had. Concierge Chuck is another standout -- always helpful, friendly, and on top of everything. We're also really looking forward to more of the community events, which already seem thoughtfully done and a great way to bring people together. I had to come back and add that the security team and the front gate crew are outstanding! Well, now I have to come back and add that the people in guest services are fantastic! I want to mention Mark and Pedro and hope the Irvine company knows what an amazing staff you put together! So far, living here has exceeded our expectations in every way. It's not just a beautiful place -- it's a genuinely welcoming community, and that makes all the difference. Well done, Irvine Company!

Kendra, the manager on site, has been extremely friendly and supportive where needed. Through the pandemic, the coin shortage made it hard to find quarters to do laundry.

We lived at The Enclave for nearly nine years, and this review is written after a long period of…read moretrying to work collaboratively with management. Unfortunately, our experience over time has been marked by repeated safety, habitability, and quality-of-life issues that were never fully resolved. Over the years, we dealt with car break-ins, lack of security camera coverage, repeated noise disturbances, smoking infiltration affecting asthma, and water damage -- including a cracked pipe that caused significant damage and took weeks to be properly addressed. We also experienced a prolonged period where our garage was unusable due to hazardous gasoline and race car fluid leaking from a neighboring garage. That incident resulted in personal property being damaged and ruined, with no compensation from insurance or management. There were also serious safety incidents in our building, including third-floor squatting, suspected drug activity, and a SWAT intervention and arrest. In April 2025, we requested a wellness check on an elderly resident who was later found deceased. Despite police presence and the removal of a body from the building, automated promotional community messages continued shortly afterward, which felt extremely insensitive and highlighted a lack of situational awareness. Noise issues were a recurring problem. Most recently, starting in October 2025, new tenants in Apartment 305 have a child who runs throughout the day. We contacted the office multiple times and made several noise complaints, but the issue has continued without resolution. After documenting these issues for years and providing a comprehensive, written summary, we requested to end our lease early without penalty, especially given that another tenant in our building (Apartment 208) was previously allowed to do so due to unresolved foundational issues. Management declined our request and would only offer a partial waiver while still requiring us to pay additional days. It's disappointing to spend nearly a decade as responsible, communicative tenants and feel that the cumulative impact of these issues -- particularly safety and habitability -- was not meaningfully considered. We are sharing this experience so future renters can make an informed decision.
