About Boardwalk
Stunning apartments that feel like a seaside retreat right in the middle of Santa Clara? Where do I sign up? Boardwalk is centered around bringing the outdoors in and vice versa. Gorgeous waterways and fountains flow throughout our large grounds, crisscrossing between walkways and ground-level waterfront patios. Never far from the water, ground floor apartments open directly onto The Lakes, with private, open patios that extend over the water. Second-floor apartments are bright and airy with vaulted ceilings and copious windows. At the heart of Boardwalk Apartments lies our clubhouse with a galley kitchen, a huge frame tv and sliding doors that lead directly to our saltwater pool deck.
Boardwalk is an apartment community located in Santa Clara County and the 95051 ZIP Code. This area is served by the Santa Clara Unified attendance zone.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Property Ratings at Boardwalk
very loud and noisy because of construction. very inconvenient.
I recently transferred from an old unit to a newer unit. This Boardwalk employee named Alvin was the best!!! He is very helpful and his communication skills are top shelf. He helped make a very stressful time less stressful. Thank you Alvin and The Boardwalk!!!!
This community was great 2 years ago and I would have given it 10 stars. The grass was green, apartments were kept up (older styles but still in good condition), people & management were nice so we renewed our lease which was a HUGE mistake. They are currently renovating & will be for the next few years, the new management is absolutely horrible when it comes to issues like theft (which happens a lot), communication & listening to neighbor concerns. I'm sure they will say everything to make you feel like it's the best place to live... but after a few months, it won't be worth all the headaches and frustration.
My family have lived at Boardwalk nearly 2 two years. Beautiful man-made creeks, very professional maintenance services. The service requests we submitted are always finished in 24 hours. The cons is rent increase rate is 10% since first year, which is really high comparing to my friends' apartment's increasing rate is around 3%.
