Irvine Company

Sometimes can be a little more of a commute than I would've liked in my first, very busy year of grad school, but the location and amenities are second to none.

I live in a safe and quiet area with a regular USC shuttle connection to the UPC campus, which makes commuting easy and reliable. The neighborhood feels comfortable for evening walks, and there are grocery stores and cafes within walking distance. It’s a good option if you prefer a calmer environment slightly away from campus while still staying well connected.

I really enjoyed my time at Villa Siena. The location is super convenient, the apartment was clean and well-maintained, and the staff were always friendly and responsive. Amenities like the pool and gym were well-kept, and the overall environment felt safe and welcoming. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a nice place in the area!

ONE OF THE WORST apartment complexes in IRVINE. Do NOT trust these glorious fake 5-star reviews that suddenly pop out right after a negative review is posted. The 5-star reviews are fake, written by friends, coworkers or family of the management himself who is trying to make himself look good and lure people into this DUMP and SOME from people who receive incentives to write those 5-star reviews. Park Place Apartment Homes is managed by a grossly incompetent, rude, unprofessional, unethical, dishonest person, who has no qualifications and no clue about how to manage an apartment complex and has turned this place into a dirty, unsanitary, noisy, unsafe, overcrowded, overpriced GHETTO. Besides all sorts of issues, this place is VERY unsafe and noisy, you see Irvine Police here all the time, because of the type of people they are allowed to rent here and are causing all kinds of problems, harassing others, and get away with it, since the time this incompetent Community Manger has been hired. If you like your peace of mind and do not want to throw thousands of dollars into the garbage, DO NOT RENT HERE!!

Utilities are not included; however, the base rent is quite comparable to grad housing (2B2B) with more amenities!

Would Recommend!

The community is great. There are pools and gym.
The washer and dryer are old. There are ants in the house.

It's very convenient. Although the house is a little bit old, you can call leasing office to fix many problems.

The maintenance service provided by Irvine Company is very convenient. The location is in UTC, close to supermarkets and schools, making it incredibly accessible.

Park Place is an awesome apartment complex in Irvine. The property is quite large and can be confusing, but it is in great condition, is always clean, and quiet. It is definitely worth paying for if you can afford it!

The amenities are very nice and it feels like I live at a resort. The main gate is guarded 24/7, making the apartment feel very secure. There are multiple pools, very nice cabanas perfect for BBQ-ing and getting together with friends, tennis and pickleball courts, basketball courts, and multiple playgrounds for children. My unit itself has plenty of natural sunlight (even as a first floor unit) with high ceilings that make the apartment feel very spacious. My commute to the UCI campus is also very short with zero traffic no matter the time of day!

Very nice apartment, lots of space and parking. Close to school and the beach. Nice amenities including pools and gym, and grills. A bit pricey for students. Utilities not included

I love living at Villa Siena -- my 2bd/2 bath apartment is extremely spacious, and we have a nicely renovated kitchen, AC, and in-unit washer and dryer. There are multiple pools with cabanas around the complex that make studying outside more enjoyable, especially when it's sunny (most of the year)! There are also pickle ball courts, a tennis court, and a 3 story gym for all residents to use. In addition, the maintenance team is generally very quick to respond to any issues that arise. Overall, great experience living here, but it is a little pricey.
