Our first impression of the community was with Stephen in the leasing office to discuss the community, and he’s been very helpful and hospitable every step of the way, and I can only imagine that being the standard for the management here. We toured a 3rd story, 3-bedroom initially, as a family of 6 with our dog. Everyone was pleased! We liked what we saw; the apartments feel very home-like, with tall ceilings, modern finishings, and ample space.
To my delight and surprise, this... community, Grandeville at River Place, is the only apartment community I have known to offer 4-bedroom units. And that is what we chose: 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, a first-floor unit. And so far, it has been everything we wanted in an apartment home. The floors are a durable, attractive laminate plank; the walls are a textured fresh white color, featuring both wood baseboards and crown moldings. The unit is abundant with windows, and excellent-quality blinds and the fans make for comfortable Florida living. The kitchen was recently remodeled; it has fresh and stylish cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, and I love the natural stone countertops. All in all, in this community, you do genuinely get what is advertised. There is a really cool bowling alley lane in the leasing office, and the gym appears clean and well-maintained. I haven’t been to or used the pool yet, but it looks like a fun oasis.

I’d also like to add, it is March 2026 as I am writing. I did notice some negative reviews about the property on various apartment listing sites, and I would like to address that. Grandeville at River Place was built in 2002, and it seems there have been levels of renovation done. When you apply, take notice of “premium” and “premium plus,” which indicates the recent renovations. To the best of my knowledge, the renovations started in 2020. The walls are NOT paper-thin; in fact, the walls need a drill to hang anything. I haven’t seen any insect activity, but it is Florida, so the odd one-off bug is to be expected. As stated, keep in mind many reviews were under old management and do not reflect the quality and standards of the management today. I genuinely cannot complain.

Maintenance has already come out twice for us, and they have conducted themselves professionally and friendly.
We can’t complain, as a family of 6, husband and wife, 4 kids, even our Shepherd dog feels at home already! Read More

I've lived here with my husband and our dog for 2 years. This place is little pricey, but for what you get it's totally worth it. I'm rating it 5 stars because I've lived in some other complexes in the UCF area and this is the nicest one by far. When we moved in, we had all completely new appliances and carpet. Vinyl floors and carpet in the bedrooms only. Most people that live here are families with kids and some college students. It's a quiet area and there are no loud parties at night. The... pool is also super nice and relaxing. My only complaints are that there is not enough parking for guests (12 spots or so in the entire complex) and there is no gate code. They WILL tow you if you are parked in a resident spot without a sticker. Also, it's really annoying when we want to order pizza after 7pm and we keep having to drive to the gate to let the delivery guy in. Overall, you will definitely get your money's worth out of this place. It's definitely been a nice little home for our family. Read More

I was told there were not many college students here, this was a complete lie. Almost every unit in this complex is rented by college students who are loud and obnoxious throughout every night. My first night here there were students walking around the parking lot with a bottle of vodka taking shots. The parking is the worst I have ever seen, there is maybe 1 spot available per apartment when most of them probably have 2 or 3 cars. Every night I am forced to park across the entire complex... cause every spot within any reasonable distance is taken up. Grandeville boasts saying they renovated everything yet the only thing they have done is put a nice countertop in the kitchen, all the cabinets are worn and rotting inside. Literally every one has water damage inside. The maintenance takes forever because apparently everything is on backorder. They have valet trash pickup with little bins outside of each apartment which rarely gets picked up. These trash bins are also expected to be maintained by the residents, yet these don't have handles and there is no place in the entire complex for you to actually wash these things so they all have a disgusting smell which created a terrible black soldier fly larvae problem. Ours was horridly disgusting upon move in and the first two weeks we spent here we were killing at least 10 larvae a day which were crawling into our apartment and hiding under the baseboards which have gaps to the floor because the floor is uneven and the installers didn't put them in correctly. This place is nowhere near worth the premium price you will have to pay to live here. Read More

My honest review of Grandeville at River Place is not good. I don’t know where to start so I’ll just list everything I find wrong with it that has contributed to my negative experience.

Friends or family visiting? Think again. 21 visitors parking for the ENTIRETY of the hundreds of people who live here. Property has expressed no urgency to fix this problem and all of the residents complaints have produced no attempt from the property to resolve this issue.

Been locked out several times when I... first moved in. The gate locks in the evening and I had no scanner key given when I moved in. My name also wasn’t added to the call box until I complained about it.

Parcel Pending is how you will receive some of your packages and have them held hostage in a system that you have to pay monthly for. I often have to wait til the next day to pick up my package because Parcel Pending is in the office but the office typically locks at 5pm.

Walls are thin, there’s a minor bug problem, my laundry room floor is messed up and warped from water damage (prior to move in) and it was never fixed.

Have complained about tree branches scratching and pounding against my window, was told trees get trimmed in the Springtime—I’m writing this in April and the trees have still not been trimmed.

It feels like more of an inconvenience to stay than to move out—I’ve been living here for 9 months. Read More

I have never in my life felt so disrespected by a company before. They treat you like an unwanted roach, they are extremely rude and deceitful. I can’t even begin to express how careless the management here is. If you write a complaint, instead of helping you they just defend themselves. It’s comical.
