Not being taken care of Also, as a 3rd year resident here and a renter by choice, we agree wholeheartedly with the two other reviews stating pretty much what we would say. This place does not appear to reflect the Mahaffey Apartment Company’s management style. The rate increases, deteriorating conditions of amenities and landscaping along with just a different vibe here have sadly made this our final year here. Cigarette butts & mulch constantly all over the sidewalks-the grounds crew used to clean it up weekly, and after ev... read more

Thank you so much for providing us with your candid feedback regarding your recent experience here at The Carlton of Fort Myers. With the start of Spring, we are fortunate to now have landscaping service completed on a weekly basis. With this weekly service, our landscapers will focus on improved aesthetics, weed control, irrigation functionality, and areas around the community where additional plant material may be needed. With our recently completed maintenance team, April will also see a return to our building power wa... read more
Serious Lack in Upkeep First off, they increase the rent by $200 every year & seemingly don’t focus on any upkeep of the property. When they first opened, there was a consistent landscaping/groundskeeping company that was making it look pretty until all the units got filled. After that, it's like they stopped trying. The Grill rarely ever works and temperature gauges have been broken for over a year, and whether the pool will be heated each week is a shot in the dark as well. Not to mention that the printer is always broken,... read more

Shop around! The rent increases of OVER 200 dollars a year are ridiculous! We can see all the empty apartments and lately, there seems to be more move outs than move ins. Quite frankly, we find it to be karma because this is the greediest, most nickel and dime low budge place we have ever lived. The market is changing and this is the only place that didn’t get the memo. Carpet is garbage, so thin and not soft. Formica countertops, peel and stick vinyl floors, flimsy window blinds, noisy ceiling fans, low wattage LED lighting... read more

Zero stars This is a terrible place to live. First, let's start with the spiders everywhere, all the time. They come and powerwash, which creates a puddle in your entryway, but the spiders come right back. Next, the cess pool in the middle of the property smells and unless there's an actual hurricane, they never turn off the squirting machine in the middle. So on windy days, which is most of the time, if you walk anywhere close to it, prepare to receive a shower from that nasty water. Let's talk about the gates, which are no... read more
No parking There is no monitoring of permit(sticker) parking. Lots are packed. Be prepared to walk 50-100 yards to your apartment if you work late or are home after 7pm(pray for no rain). Management does nothing to help and will likely delete this comment.
Only good thing is the size of the apartments Maintenace does not keep up with the property whatsoever. Property was never treated for bugs or spiders. Steps are not cleaned spiders and bugs everywhere to the point where a spider bit me on my face. Staff is mediocrely friendly. Huge black widow problem. Pool has been closed for almost 3 months. Gates are never working properly. When the gates are functioning, you need to put your window down in the rain to scan your fob. Would give 0 starts if possible.
Watch out! WARNING! At the end of the first year lease they are taking everyone to current rental rates which for myself and most of my neighbors is upwards of an additional $400+ per month! When I asked the office about this, their response was “we have a waiting list of people willing to pay it so that says we are in the right”. Basically, if you don’t pay it, the next person will. We now know why all the moving trucks in the front buildings. Absolutely zero loyalty to an existing tenant! I cannot believe Florida allows th... read more
