May 2017: I'v been living in village at science drive almost 2 years and I am planning to live here for rest of my college years. I really like the floor plan, it has biggest bedroom around this area and private bathrooms. Office staffs are very nice and helpful. Parkings are free!! And recently they did the overall renovation in the apartment with wood floor and new appliances makes the apartment almost new.

May 2017: I have now lived at the Village at Science Drive for a full year and I do not have many complaints. Any issues I have had have been resolved whether it have been through the office assistants or the higher up managers. The maintenance workers are very friendly and efficient, they sometimes take a while to fulfill our work orders but it just depends on how many they have. At the end of the day the work orders always get completed and are handled very professionally. I love living here and I would change it for a thing! I love my huge bedroom and huge walk in closet!

Apr 2017: I greatly enjoy living at the Village. The location is perfect: very close to campus, the main road (Alafaya), but set back enough so it is quiet. The staff is very helpful and friendly and make sure your living arrangements are enjoyable. Parking is right outside your room as well, which is very beneficial. Love it!

Feb 2017: I've lived here for two years and plan on staying here until I graduate. The apartment is quiet; tucked away out of all of the Alafaya mess. I've never heard of anything bad happening here (no UCF alerts about stabbings or robberies). They are renovating the entire property and the model so far looks beautiful. More modern on the inside. Price did increase a little because of renovations, but you're getting what you pay for! Honestly would not want to live anywhere else.

Feb 2017: The Community Assistance, which are students are great and they do as much as they can to help given that they are just assistance. The mangers on the other hand are horrible and don't know how to handle situations well. They basically will take your money any where they can and the rent is way to high for the poor quality of service provided.

Dec 2016: Do not sign here! This is the WORST apartment complex I've ever lived in!! The staff specifically Maddie Peterson-the bookkeeper and the manager are EXTREMELY unfair and only care about money. I lived there for literally 2 months and they charged me $75 for a RIDICULOUS reason (a grey scuff mark on the wall) and they don't care at all about you and will send you to collections if you don't pay an absurd amount of money. I've called and emailed so many people and they don't care. DO NOT SIGN HERE YOU WILL 100% REGRET IT!!!

Feb 2016: This apartment complex is super sleazy. They try and steal money from you every month. Make sure you check your energy bills yourself because got charged by science drive 280 where when we went to see our bill, it was only 160 dollars. Then there was a mold problem and it took them over 2 months to finally coming to fix it and telling them the month we moved in. I highly recommend looking somewhere else. The price you way is not nearly what you get out. Go live somewhere else.

Jan 2016: As a parent of a student living at these apartments, I will tell you to trust me and look elsewhere...anywhere else for housing. Since my son moved in it has been nothing but run around, after run around from the management when trying to resolve issues. First one being the grungy, dirty, ripped and worn out (soiled) mattress he was given to sleep on. After a month of bugging them, they finally delivered him a new one. The rent is way too high for the mediocre accommodations. Now their energy bill has suddenly doubled and they are having to pay overages each month. I've tried to get answers and help on this but the same run around is happening by management again.
Review from 1/10/16 on GoogleAn American Campus Community, ACC where students love living The Village at Science Drive is ACC managed so will be similar to Plaza on University except Plaze is right across the street from UCF. https://www.livesomewhere.com/ucf/blog-articles-about-plaza-on-university?onedesc_id=3&pb_y...read more

Oct 2015: I beg of you if you would like to keep your sanity and peace of mind. DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT sign to live at this apartment complex. It may seem like the best option out of all of the apartments around UCF they'll give you the tour and tell you every single thing you want to hear. It is all a lie. I have lived here from August 2014 and unfortunately I made one of the worst mistakes in my life by resigning. Why did I resign? Simply because I did not want to bother with moving again. The big significant issues all have to do with the Internet and the staff. The Internet works properly maybe two hours of the whole day.
Review from 10/1/15 on Apartment RatingsAug 2015: This is currently my first week in my 3:3 and we have already seen 3 cockroaches roaming the apartment. They say that the pest control is coming soon so I will update on how that situation is. But as a person who has a serious fear of any bug getting up close and personal with them, this is a nightmare. It's got me staying up all night tonight hoping that the cockroach doesn't re-appear. Wish me luck ??
Review from 8/27/15 on Apartment RatingsJul 2015: Decent community, shuttles to UCF run on time and the office is helpful. Just make sure to move with people you know, one roommate I got randomly matched with was terrible. Through the roomate situation the office was helpful and understanding. Never had any issues with maintenance.
Review from 7/7/2015 on Apartment RatingsJun 2014: Make sure you document every little thing. When in doubt write it out. Otherwise they will try to charge you. I wrote down everything that was wrong documented it all and they still try to charge me for some broken blinds which they said were already fixed. Maybe the staff do not talk to each other on their different standards on what is considered as broken and what is considered as fixed.
Jun 2014: For some reason, there are always overages on utilities. Despite the air being at 78-80 degrees. Also, be careful about the roommate matching thing, make sure to get in writing on the terms and conditions about the roommate. Very tough to break your lease and they seem to just match you with anyone just to fill out space. Might be a good lesson for any places with roommate matching, much better if you just meet people and decide for yourself.Jun 2014: Parking is easy to find but if it late at night you might have some trouble finding one quickly. However, there is always a courtesy office so it helps to promote a safer environment. The room I have was huge compared to other complexes.Jun 2014: The hot water seems to last only for a few minutes and then turns cold. The shuttle every 15 minutes and the room size was pretty alright.
Jun 2014: The back road access to UCF, Waterford, and 408 is absolutely amazing. Trust me you will save a ton of time if you can limit the drive on Alafaya and Colonial.
