As a parent of an undergrad student in the Tampa area, I am so happy that we found the Aurora apartments. Property is well-maintained, clean and quiet. It has been a safe place as well and I know my student has enjoyed a number of community activities, the well-equipped gym, the beautiful pool and outdoor areas, as well as the close distance to university, restaurants and his part time job.

I moved in about two months ago and have nothing but good things to say about management. They made the process seamless in moving in, maintenance team has been astounding (George was so helpful), and the property itself is very well taken care of and managed. You can’t beat the location of everything too. So happy I made Aurora my home!
- Lauren C.
The staff here at Aurora has been nothing short of wonderful. Debbie and and Neil help out tremendously. The location of Aurora is ideal, with being right down town, it is a 2 min walk to Amalie Arena and Water Street. Everything is always clean and the amenities like the gym and pool feel very high class! Very happy living here.

- Isabella G.
Great attention to detail is spent at all times overall. Even things as convenient as there is always parking available on my unit level. It has been a wonderful living environment. Not to mention the great location to close restaurants, shopping and other downtown sites. All around great!

Moved in three weeks ago, couldn’t be happier with location, apartment, and most of all the customer service. Second to none, especially Debbie! Thank you. Looking forward to enjoying my new home.

Fantastic location for working in downtown Tampa. The amenities, such as the pool, hot tub, and gym, are also very nice. Also, the food trucks they bring in periodically are convenient and the events they host are fun. Plus, Debbie helps make everyone feel like Aurora is truly their home. I can't recommend enough!
- Joseph M.
I can say with confidence this is one of the BEST apartments in Tampa. Everything from the location to the amenities (grill, pool, package delivery, trash valet, etc.) makes this place superior to any other downtown apartment. The staff is very kind and willing to answer any questions (shoutout Debbie) and the apartments themselves are very well-maintained and CLEAN!!
