Ultris Rancho Del Oro

The front staff changes a lot and majority of them are rude. There is no security around the neighborhood and there is a homeless colony next to the neighborhood. I had the ignition of my motorcycle drilled into and that night 7 other motorcycles were stolen. The landscaping seems nice at first but they over water the trees causing any small storm passing through to knock down trees. Also they only have AT&T for internet hook-​up and AT&T offers a FIOS connection which you cant use because AT&T connects the wires all the way until the entrance of the apartment complex with FIOS cables. Once you get into the apartment complex it is copper wires so you end up just getting an average internet and being charged alot of money for something you can’t use. The last thing is they charge an insane amount for minor damages. They will charge you to repaint a whole wall just because there is a tiny mark so make sure you leave all the walls untouched.

Great place until I moved out. Do not live next to the pool unless you like to hear screaming children most of the day. And I mean SCREAMING. I won’t go into detail but other reviews are correct. They try to charge an insane amount upon move out. I had to event contact a lawyer. It’s sad because I would have moved back otherwise.

The staff is friendly and attentive. As a dog owner I am concerned about the refilling of the bags and emptying of the trash where you dump your dogs poop. The dog bags ran out one evening, and in the morning they refilled it immediately without me having to go down to the office! With most apartment complexes they dog not pick up after lazy dog owners, but their staff here makes sure it is clean! It is nice to know that the pet rent money is use for the purpose of pet amenities.
When the washing machine was leaking they sent someone over that day to check it out.
It is great to know they care about their tenants!

DO NOT STAY HERE!!! This place has no security and their alarm systems do not work. This place is not worth what they make you pay. It’s a cheap apartment and it falls apart then they make you pay more than what the damage is worth. The management is highly unprofessional and they check the key box pretty much when they want so they can charge you extra days when you leave. Then they will call you a liar. When you call to talk to them to resolve any issues they are hard to find. It may seem like a nice place but it comes at a huge price. When you leave this place they will over charge you for damages and for extra days of rent. Is it worth it I think not. I wish I could give this place 0 stars and they do not keep up with the paperwork and they will also turn you into collections without a notice that anything is owed. Again save yourself money and time and do not stay here. You are warned. If you choose to stay here even with what I am warning you about, I wish you luck. You will need it when you move here. Hopefully you won’t have to take out a loan for what it will cost you to repairs the damages and for the rent as well.

There is no cameras in the parking lot so when a car backed into my car they were unable to do anything! Second they need to add speed bumps because cars are always speeding by. My daughter almost got hit by the old lady with the mask that lives by the office. There is also never any parking spots in the parking lot! And don’t you dare walk on the grass area cause you will probably step on dog poop 3 times. The apartments have changed name and management twice since we have lived here and it’s super hard to keep up with the payment info online. So not worth paying the expensive rate to live here because all you get is crown molding on your walls!

Absolutely terrible place to rent! The front staff are rude, and they charge the absolute most when you move out! There was a shooting there while we lived there and several robberies! I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone!

Apartments are nice and the community is well kept, however, they are not at all concerned with the quality of their tenants and any breed of dog is allowed (including non-​domesticated dogs).
My neighbor’s have two, large dogs that are completely out of control. One attacked my small dog and had to have surgery. After the initial $ 1500 surgery, the dog owners stopped paying for the vet bills. They still walk around with both dogs, as the dogs pull the owners. They are extremely aggressive dogs and the owners still do not use muzzles, shock collars or take any type of preventive measures. Now the dog owner is staring me down and trying to intimidate me. The property manager has done absolutely nothing during this entire situation and they even tell me that there is nothing that will be done. Even a couple of their own employees have expressed their concern and have apologized to me.
Anyway, the rent is high, apartments and grounds are nice, some nice tenants but there are a lot of questionable tenants as I just described.

Awful, dishonest leasing office. Get leasing prices and everything in writing ASAP!
I called and was given one price for a corporate furnished apartment. We went and viewed the apartment and said we’d like it and then were given a totally different price… $ 880 more. A MONTH. After some recalculation Regina finally gave a more reasonable price and we gave our $ 200 deposit. After several days, many phone calls I stopped by to get the paperwork and was given an even higher price by another representative. After many more phone calls they matched the original price again. Then just a few days before we were set to move in they called and cancelled on us stating that apartment was no longer available. They did not have another.
The office is worse than dealing with a used car dealership. They change prices when they know you’re desperate for a place to live and try to take advantage people. Shady.

Been here for almost a year. Wasn’t bad for the first few months. Lately, the area has been getting trashed. People leaving their trash along the walkways and trash sitting outside of their apartments. They used to take pride in the cleanliness of the apartment complex, not anymore.
Another issue is the elephant that moved in upstairs. I got it, this is an apartment. But I’ve lived in apartments for the past 18 years and this has to be the worst in regards to the noise. Some people don’t have respect for others.
Lease is almost up, I’m looking at other apartments. If I’m going to pay for quality that’s what I want.

Not bad if you want to live amongst lazy dog owners and poor management staff who don’t mind living with dog sh*t everywhere! Thankful for a short term lease! Lesson learned to do a drive by and trust the reviews! Simple solutions brought to the attention of management and we HAVE NOT seen any solutions or plans in place to solve the problem– just given poor excuses.

Apartments were ok, kind of small especially for the price and especially since they raise the price all the time, wasn’t worth renewing my lease on an almost $ 200 raise for rent. And don’t bother ever calling maintenance because they won’t return your call or fix your problem. Also when you decide to move out don’t even bother to clean the place either, I spent a few hours cleaning when I moved out and they still took almost $ 300 out of my deposit for «cleaning fees». Only good thing about this place really is that they allow boxers because for some reason they are a restricted breed to so cal. Also watch for bums, I threw away some old torn up clothes not worthy for donation and about a week later saw a bum wearing my sweater I threw out, watch your trash, they rummage thru it at night. Also solicitation, you might as well get one of those signs, I swear 3 times a week I had someone coming to my door selling something. It was really annoying.

Its a nice apartment just really expensive now! Plus its turning into a ghetto and i have been approached by strange men saying i wonder if shes alone so now i don’t feel comfortable going out alone at night. They say they have security but i hardly ever see them around… Not worth what you are paying for the place…

My husband and I lived here for a year and a half. One of the nicer apartment complexes in the area and we looked at quite a few before making a decision.
Lived in a 2 bedroom/​2 bath, very spacious and open. Area feels safe, alarms in the apartments is a plus!
Not a lot of storage area in the apartment itself which was kind of a problem when your husband is military, no space for all his gear. You have to pay extra for a storage unit. You have to pay for a parking space here unfortunately as well. But I never did have any problems finding an open parking spot.
Like other reviewers have said, they raised our rent about $ 100 a month when we renewed the lease, which we weren’t thrilled about since we are good tenants.
Grassy areas usually have dog poop on them which was a problem for me & I own a dog. They do have potty stations throughout the complex and it seems like the dog owners are just too lazy to pick up after their pets.
We had quite a few maintenance issues while living there, but we contacted them and maintenance always responded quickly. The girls in the office were all very helpful.
Had to break our lease due to husband deploying & never had an issue with them. Move out went smoothly.

LOVED this place! My husband and I lived here for 6 months then relocated to Northern California. The staff was so helpful and we loved our apartment. It’s a bit pricey but worth every penny. We never had any issues and maintenance was quick. Definitely recommend it!

If you want to play the parking wars, you are in a right place to be. Enjoy the scavengers hunt for a good parking spot near your destination. But beware of deeply parked motorcycles that you cant see before its too late and the infamous double parking vehicles who dont care about humanities’ time and soul. Come have fun and enjoy parking wars!

First of all, I have to say I rate this community a one star only because I couldn’t go any lower.
Yes the application process was painless, but just like with any other bad sale the customer service from the staff only worsens once you sign the lease. There is only one young lady in the office who truly tries to help and you’ll be able to tell who that is as soon as you walk in.
In regards to the amenities, nothing really to brag about. The gym is small, the business center is always out of supplies, and good luck trying to use the movie theater. The pool area is always loud so don’t expect to go there and relax while reading a book.
Parking is terrible and I found myself forced to pay extra for reserved covered parking because you don’t find open spaces ever (not to mention they are small spaces). And while we talk about the parking lot, there are always kids playing in the middle of it, throwing footballs around and hitting the parked cars, riding bicycles and scooters, with complete disregard towards others.
It is pet friendly, and that was a big selling point for me. Unfortunately, no one there likes to pick up after their pets. There is dog poop everywhere! It’s disgusting!
As far as the actual units, they are small, and infested of bugs and spiders. They even crawl out of the bath tubs. The appliances are old, the carpet was new but of the lowest quality possible. Overall, this place is overpriced.
But the real breaking point was the noise pollution. It is so loud at all times of the day even inside the apartment specially if you live near college blvd.
Finally, at move out, they charged for cleaning and painting even when the unit was left clean. So I barely got any of the deposit back.
I hope this review is helpful and can save you some headaches. Believe me you will regret living here.

When my husband & I first moved to Oceanside (because he was stationed at Camp Pendleton), we lived here. Driving around to different apartment communities, this was the one he liked the most. I really enjoy the fact that they do their lease application online — VERY convenient. They also offer a reduced deposit for military folks. My husband & I applied and got approved for an apartment within 24 hours!
The apartment layouts are spacious & open. Move-​in was a breeze & maintenance was always responsive. This is one of the few complexes in the area that has a washer & dryer in the apartment AND central air conditioning!
As with any apartment complex (especially one that has a lot of military folks living there), you don’t always enjoy your neighbors, and this particular complex is rather contained, so noise is amplified.
Also, their parking policies aren’t the best. You have to pay for a covered parking spot, but you don’t get anything to put on your car to designate that. Very often, we found folks parking in covered spots that we know they didn’t pay for, and far too often, we found people parked in our covered spot.
Last but not least, when it was time for my husband & I to renew our lease, they wanted to raise our rent nearly $ 300 a month! That was the breaking point for us, so we moved out. As a final blow, they really nickle-​and-​dimed us on the condition of our apartment. I’ve lived in 10+ apartments & never been charged this much when I moved out. It seems like they expected us to have the place professionally cleaned (they even charged us because a drawer was dusty!).
This is still a good place to live, but I wouldn’t live here again because it is just too expensive.

Ok so I lived here a long time ago 2001 – 2004.
I loved it. Recently I went back to consider moving back because I never had issues there
And they of course changed management and my fav
Apartment front office person– Darlene transferred to their del mar property
But the new manager seems great!
It’s def high on my list to come back! I think this time
I’ll go for a 2 bedroom

Loved every moment I spent here. My husband and I lived here for a year and a half and had nothing but positive experiences. We lived in the bigger 1bed 1bath floorplan on the first floor. Our apartment was great. We had a small patio where we pretty much just stored things, washer and dryer in unit was amazing, crown and baseboard molding was a good looking plus.
Yes, rent was expensive, but worth it. We looked at some scary places in the same area. They were much cheaper but old, dingy, and in unsafe neighborhoods. Pay the extra to live in a place you feel safe!
Maintenance staff was great. My washer stopped spinning out clothes and I put in a work order. Literally an hour later they were there to fix my washer. Upon move out we did out final walk-​through and maintenance was knew we were painting and cleaning all day and took that into consideration. Only $ 100 was taken from out deposit for mandatory carpet cleaning and touchup paint. Front office was fabulous. All the ladies were helpful especially when it came to renewing our lease. Since we only renewed for 6 months our rent went up a tad. No biggie.
Floor plan was awesome! Nice and spacious, lots of places to store things, huge walk in closet and large bathroom that my husband and I could get ready together in. Kitchen had lots of cabinets and a pantry which was great (now I am living in a apartment with 2 cabinets and no pantry. You don’t realize how great these things are until you don’t have them!)
Parking was great. Note: If you move to a building in the front of the community parking will be terrible! Live near the back, it is also more quiet. We parked in the same spots nearly every day.
Fitness center was great but small. Ended up getting a membership to 24hour across the street.
Business center came in hand when I needed to fax items, even print before we bought a printer.
In an awesome area. Walk to Walmart, and all the stores in that shopping center. Mexican, Chinese, awesome sushi, CVS, 24 Hour Fitness, Cuppy Coffee (Amazing Hot Chocolate!), Coldstone, and In and Out were a 2 minute walk across the street. Awesome for late night outings. Easy access to the 76. Close to Camp Pendleton San Luis Rey gate and Main gate.
Con: Walls are kind of thin. Never heard people talking but we could hear the people walking around upstairs.
Spiders. Noting serious but I would spray the apartment with spider spray every couple of months.
Solicitors. Get a no soliciting sign! Kirby salesman and magazine pushers came buy all the time, at least twice a week. Quite annoying! Save yourself and get a no soliciting sign. Girl scouts selling cookies were always welcome though!
Have to pay for all your utilities. No biggie. But that may bother some.

I currently live here. I love it so far in the 6 months I have been here. I gave it a three star because of a few things.
If you live on the College Boulevard side of the community the street noise is pretty loud, but you can still have a good night sleep.
The Jacuzzi/​spa is always a mess because of people smoking while they are in the Jacuzzi/​spa. I always compare the color to the pool and it is cloudy and gray all the time while the pool is clear and with a blueish tint like all pools are.
When you drive on the main part of the community to get out people are too lazy to park their cars in the spaces provided and they park next to the curb and there are plenty of free spaces not to far from the walk ways.
A lot of people don’t pick up after their dogs. My dog ends up stepping in some other dog’s poop and I can smell it about 100 ft before we even reach the curb to get there.
Now some of you might be reading this and be like why didn’t I give a 1 or 2 star? Well here are the perks of the apartment especially in this part of Oceanside.
The apartments are a perfect size.
The staff are nice and the maintenance guys always wave nicely when you walk or drive by them in their golf carts.
The bathrooms and tubs are huge.
There’s a full size washer and dryer in every apartment.
And you can get an accent wall color for $ 75 which includes them coming in to paint it for you and when you leave you don’t have to pay extra to have it painted back to the original color.
