This is not an expensive apartment building for the space and amenities they offer. Yes, the walls here are thin compared to other places we've been in, but the other complaints I've been reading are rediculous. Like the gates in this gated community are always broken....that is in every gated community I've ever lived in. It's the same everywhere. Any place you rent with a gate will have malfunctions. So expect it. The fact is that it's not broken every week or every other week like other places way more expensive then here. Also, the landscaping is very pleasent. If you think it's no big deal to see trees and green grass, go to other places and pay more money to have no view and only soggy mulch or a parking lot to walk on. Then you will appreciate it. Also there are plenty of potty stations for your pets to clean up after. If you think that's not important, then again, go someplace else, pay $500 more a month in rent and not be able to open your windows because if you do, you will have your whole apartment smell like the dogs that just passed your apartment that the owners didn't pick up after. Except for the thin walls and the people who live on the ground floor who think they shouldn't hear people walking around above them, this place is worth the money. One thing to remember, if you live below someone, you will hear people above you. If you don't want to hear them, get a top level apartment and that won't happen. The pool and hot tub are fantastic. The hot tub has a timer that you set yourself so if you come here after hours, you turn on the hot tub, yourself. I am happy here. All the complaints I'm reading happen everywhere. The key is to be happy on the inside because nobody or nothing else will make you happy. It starts with you. I also read some woman living alone and the maintenance men came in on her, that happends everywhere. I was at my last apartment here in Jax and the same thing happend to me. If you tell the front office, it won't happen again. You are in an apartment. You are renting their space. You don't own it. If you don't want any of these things to happen then buy a house or a condo and help the economy. I can keep going but I won't. I love this place. (except the thin walls)

The walls here are paper thin, you can hear everything the neighbors do, from their washing machine, to vacuuming, to them doing it, it's awful. Do not recommend.

North Beach on Kernan is a gorgeous new property! It has very pretty landscaping, spacious floor plans, awesome amenities! ...seems perfect - at first!

The noise level is ridiculous, you hear the people beside you, above you, even under and across from you! Contrary to what you are told, the community is not a true "gated community" and the gates are always malfunctioning, they often forget to turn on the heat in the jacuzzi & the gas in the grill. The office staff is very nice when selling. Once you've signed your lease, their "follow through" is definitely below par and their communication is not nearly at the level it should be. Corporate is not any better at follow through or communication. Their comradery is severely lacking: they pick and choose whom they want to offer certain discounts to.

Over all the place is beautiful, but other than appearance - you don't get what you pay for.

North Beach has some of the most beautiful apartments I've ever seen. Coming home to such a nice apartment is a wonderful feeling. The pool and hot tub are outstanding, and grilling on the weekends out there is a blast. But noise is a huge problem. I've received numerous notices, and had police sent to my apartment because apparantly it sounded as if I was being abused or abusive towards my infant. Children cry, couples fight, and social people have friends over occasionally. Its a fact, but at North Beach if any noise falls through the paper thin walls, eviction is an instant threat. While the apartments are outstanding as well as the ammenities, unless you plan on sitting in your gorgeous apartment alone, DON'T MOVE IN.
