“Danielle was very helpful! I was looking for a short term lease and although I was under budget for Oak creek she helped me find something across all 1st lake properties, incredibly helpful, and very kind!”
“Living at The Beacon is an absolutely perfect experience moving down to New Orleans!
The building itself is in a great location. The neighborhood (Central Business District (CBD), and the specific couple of blocks called South Market) is an excellent place to live.
It is one of the safest parts of New Orleans, and walking the neighborhood is very feasible and convenient. There is a Rouse's (major supermarket) right across the street, and a few blocks away is Poydras (the main road) which has plenty of restaurants and other things you'd need in your neighborhood, as well as on some of the side streets. There is a very good Mexican restaurant right next door to the building which is also very convenient, but even on a busy weekend night you can't hear anything at all in the building itself, the sound is very well-insulated.
The building is also only a few blocks (walking distance) from both Smoothie King Arena and the Superdome, so if you want to see the Saints/Pelicans or any other events during the week, it is extremely convenient. Most of the business in CBD is also walking-distance. I worked in Lafayette Square and it was about an 8-minute walk. The exit to get onto the highway is also right off of Poydras (2min drive, maybe 5min with after-work traffic), and the exit back into CBD is even closer right near the Superdome. Unlike many neighborhoods, it's very easy to travel in and out of CBD without having to navigate side roads/traffic.
The building/management itself is also excellent. There is a great community of people, both residents and staff, and everybody is very welcoming (and for a first-timer to New Orleans like myself, very helpful with getting accustomed to the city). The amenities are great, and the price is excellent especially given the size/quality of many of the apartments. There is also a number of social events for those who want to partake, and the company that owns/manages The Beacon also has two other buildings each a half-block away in different directions, so there is a great community around South Market even outside the building. In the year I was here, I never had an issue with the building/amenities, and the rare one or two times I asked for maitenence for a routine replacement, they were extremely quick in handling it (for me, within only a few hours). Also, more basically, the building is very clean, safe (fob accesss for doors/elevators on the ground and 2nd floor, as well as the package/mail room), and has a great atmosphere. On top of that, all of the staff (both the leasing office and the concierge) are excellent, extremely helpful and welcoming, and a pleasure to be around.
I highly recommend The Beacon and the location. I came to New Orleans for work on a one-year term, which is my reason for leaving now that that has concluded, but if I was staying I would intend to remain at The Beacon long-term, and I was extremely happy with my experience here!”
“my girlfriend and I LOVED living here!! the staff was always so friendly and helpful, the gym and pool were so well kept and nice to be at, and you could really feel the community in the building. it was pretty sound proof, the apartment itself was beautiful, and maintenance was always so timely and helpful! I can't recommend this place enough to anyone looking to live here.”
“The meridian is an extraordinary place. It's particularly welcoming thanks to the friendly lady in the office who is always willing to lend a hand. If possible, I would consider staying here forever.”
“Just wanna start by saying quickest and most efficient help I’ve gotten from this team getting into an apartment. Carolina was the best with accommodations and helping the move in process speed along. She need a raise the way she works her magic!!”
“I couldn't be happier with my experience living here! From day one, Ms. Stacey has been absolutely wonderful, professional, kind, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure residents feel welcomed and taken care of. Her dedication truly makes this community stand out.
The property is beautifully maintained, the gated parking garage provides both convenience and peace of mind, and the security is top-notch. I always feel safe coming home, no matter the time of day. The apartment itself is beautiful, quiet, and feels like home. It's clear that management takes pride in creating a clean, secure, and welcoming environment.
If you're looking for a place with excellent management, outstanding security, and a community that truly cares about its residents, I highly recommend living here!”
“I've lived in multiple different apartments around New Orleans and this is the first one where moving out never crosses my mind. The location is just too convenient, I walk to dinner, walk to the Caesars Superdome on game days, walk to Rouses for groceries. During my renewal, Jo actually flagged a better rate I hadn't noticed, which was a nice surprise from someone on the staff. My cat is comfortable here too since the building is genuinely pet friendly and not just listing it as a feature. The saltwater rooftop pool and the sundeck are where most of my weekends go. It's a beautiful spot to just sit and let the afternoon disappear.”
“Luca was absolutely amazing! He was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and patient, and he took the time to thoroughly answer all of our questions. Although we ultimately decided on a different property, our experience with Luca truly stood out. He made such a positive and lasting impression on us, and we couldn’t have asked for a better touring experience.”
“Huge thanks to Elizabeth for making my recent search such a positive experience. She was incredibly kind and helpful every step of the way. A big thank you as well to Michael and Derrick for jumping in when she was away — they were just as helpful and welcoming. Together, this team radiates positivity and good vibes — you can’t help but feel it when working with them. ?”
“Ms. Auriel is a terrific manager. Of all the places in the area, this was our top choice. Apartment itself was clean. Very spacious and well kept. I could immediately tell that management and maintenance were high quality. The Atrium is a nice touch as well. Highly recommend this complex if you are looking for an apartment in this area.”
“I have lived at Gold Seal Lofts since 2011 and I am extremely happy with my home. The property is well kept and the office staff is great. Planning on planting some veggies this season in the Community Garden that is available to us. I also love the courtyard lights that have been added. Not planning on going anywhere. Come be my new neighbor if you can get in! We are full. That’s what proves we are great.”

“I've been at Park Oaks for over 5 years now and have had an amazing rental experience. The front office staff Terry and Morgan, are always kind and courteous. They conduct regular check-ins over the phone to make sure that everything is going well with my unit. I rarely have issues with my unit, but when I do, George and his team respond quickly to any maintenance tickets that I submit. I truly appreciate having a staff that cares about their tenants, and I will be renewing my lease with Park Oaks again.”
“I recently moved into the complex and I am amazed! The proficiency, professionalism and attentiveness of the staff is INCREDIBLE. Complex is clean & quiet. Units are updated and affordable. Definitely a 10/10 from all aspects.”
“We are relatively new here but were asked to leave a review. The area is great and very convenient. Heather is also the best person I have interacted who works here. She is truly a gem and honestly a major reason I’m giving 4 stars.
When we first moved in, there was a long list of things that needed to be fixed in our apartment. Maintenance did address most of them, but it took a while and required multiple visits, with a few tickets needing to be reopened before everything was resolved.
As far as amenities go, there is definitely some room for improvement. That said, I do respect management for trying to meet expectations—even if it takes a “New Orleans minute” to get there. Overall, I do like living here and I hope that doesnt change any time soon.”

“My experience with the move-in process was smooth and pleasant. Candren was extremely informative and worked expeditiously to ensure that our entire process was completed efficiently. Throughout the process, he remained professional, patient, and very understanding. He made sure we were well-informed and comfortable every step of the way. I truly appreciate his professionalism, excellent customer service, and dedication to making our move-in experience as seamless as possible.
Ms. Nedra assisted in Candren’s absence and was also welcoming , professional, informative and understanding.”
“I love it here, the property is 10 minutes from everything. The property is well kept. The staff is very nice and approachable. The maintenance comes in a timely manner. Overall its a great place to live.”
“I lived at Metaire Lake Apartments a few years back, for almost two years, when I was in the New Orleans area. I absolutely loved this complex. It's pretty quiet. I think most of the tenants are young professionals, as there were not many children. The location is awesome! Near Bucktown, so great restaurants on the same street and very close to Lake Pontchatrain. Sometimes I would walk there for a workout. It is right off of Veteran's BLVD which is the main street in Metairie, where it seems like everything is located. Metairie Lake is very close to New Orleans -- Just a couple of blocks from Lakeview, and about a 10 minute drive to the French Quarter.
I would definitely recommend it. The rates are very affordable. The property was always clean, and the area was safe. I never had any issues with management. If I were to move back to New Orleans, this I'd choose this complex again.”
“Very nice place to live, am currently living here and security parking lot mail box everything is very good no complaint so far and residents are friendly plus pet friendly apartments, convenient store are close market and mall restaurants all very accessible.”

“Ms. Alma was amazing!!! I couldn’t have this amazing experience without her. I absolutely love my new apartment. It’s clean, spacious, and very quiet. Peaceful neighborhood, no noise whatsoever!!! My neighbors are friendly and to themselves, just the way I like it. It’s near all my favorite restaurants and stores in walking distance. You can’t beat that. Definitely recommend.”
“I used to live on lake avenue & I want to appreciate to one of the best maintained guys that work there. His name is Erick, one of the best workers who assisted me living there with any issue I had. For any inconvenience ask for Erick.”

“I love living at the Seasons. It is quiet and the grounds are beautiful. The people are friendly, and maintenance is usually done in a reasonable timeframe. Even a few small issues I have sent an email about, specifying no rush, we're still quickly taken care of. The appliances in our apartment are a bit dated, but the vaulted ceiling, fireplace, and full size washer/dryer more than make up for that. I recommend this apartment complex for sure!”

“It's a decent place to live. The maintenance staff personnel are exceptional in assisting with most issues in the unit. The office is staff personnel are people you can speak with concerning issues but the official response can be delayed. The parking monitor company will tow your vehicle if it's parked on the line and take into account that the spaces look to be accessible for compact vehicles. In a congested lot it's difficult for larger vehicles such as trucks/SUV's to park and residents to get out of their vehicles. The doors are constantly unsecured due to residents or guests of residents propping the doors open. I know it's only so much you can do to prevent that but safety is an issue especially in an unsafe city.”
“I've had a fantastic experience at the Bella Ridge North Complex. The location is great, and the amenities are well-maintained. Brea, the leasing office manager, has been exceptional—always friendly and responsive to my needs. She made the leasing process smooth and has been incredibly helpful. Highly recommend this complex!”
