Montelena Apartments

My wife and I have lived here sin June of 2014. As the other reviewers say, the office staff is very kind, courteous and helpful. They are a real pleasure to work with. The grounds are very well kept, the maintenance people are kind and helpful too. The location is excellent– close to everything you could need. The price is right and the neighborhood is safe. I highly recommend Montelena.

These apartments are great! I think the rent is fair for the quality of the apartments and the amenities and the location. It’s very quiet and the neighbors are friendly. We have lived here for 6 months and have been very happy with our decision to move here. The leasing staff are very friendly and always helpful and I would recommend these apartments to anyone interested!

I have lived at Montelena Apartments with my fiancé for the past 5 months and they are amazing! I love research so my apartment hunt was a big process. Montelena was the first place that I toured. I did not believe in finding the best place right out of the gate, so I toured other places. After all of my research and my visits, I came back to Montelena. Here were my main reasons for picking Montelena as my home:
1) Friendly office staff– You can tell a LOT about your apartment living experience by how the office staff treats you as a potential renter. They were amazing from the start! They did not give a high pressure «sell».
2) Pricing– This is where my researching came in hand. I had a budget to stay around and Montelena was at exactly the right price point.
3) Location– My fiancé and I wanted a location that was close to his office, close to my family in flower mound, and close to some fun places for date night. You could easily walk from our apartment to main street in Grapevine or the lake.
4) Pet Friendly– I am pretty sure my dog likes the office staff more than me some days. They have sidewalks all around the complex that you can walk your dog on.
5) Maintenance is NEVER an issue– The maintenance staff gets to your problem quickly and has respect for your apartment. The lawn is always cut and the flower beds always look great!
We love that this complex makes our apartment feel like home!

I lived here for a year. I moved here because these apartments were close to work and felt very safe (I was living alone-​female 24 years old).
Pros:
Close to downtown Grapevine. its a short drive away and the event parking (with shuttle service) is directly across the street from the office.
Safe. Well lit parking, safe area.
Well maintained. If i ever had any issues the maintenance staff was there usually within hours of reporting an issue. The landscaping is always well kept and the pool is clean.
Free wifi and public computer in the clubhouse. The staff will allow you to print to their printer, if you ask.
Plenty of parking. They even have boat parking.
Wonderful staff. The staff was very friendly and always ready to help when I had questions.
Online rent payment. Even though I enjoyed the staff, it was nice not to have to write a check every month. I used the online bill pay so paying rent was super easy.
Cons:
Next to a firehouse. This never bothered me since I was more toward the center of the complex (pool view from the patio), but I could see how it may be noisy if you lived on the side nearest to the station.
Highly recommended! I would move back there in an instant if I still lived in Texas.
