The west side of the colorful, vibrant island that is Alameda is home to some of the city’s most exciting attractions and stunning surroundings. A large portion of West Alameda is made up of sprawling industrial space and an unused airfield that hosts motor shows and incredible events. West Alameda is also home to the USS Hornet, a historic aircraft carrier that played a part in WWII and the Apollo 11 recovery mission. If you’re looking for fun and enrichment all within a few minutes of San Francisco, look for a rental in West Alameda.
With an even mix of charming, mature homes and tech-laden apartments, West Alameda is mirroring the housing boom that’s occurring just across the bay. There’s plenty of parks to keep residents of the island entertained in the area’s incredible weather. Don’t miss Monarch St., with its wineries, breweries, and trendy restaurants. There’s comprehensive BART service from West Alameda, so popping into San Francisco or Oakland is easy.

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 Surfside
In the past 6 months that I've been here, we have had 3 managers and the complex is dirty. Tenants are sketchy and noisy as hell. When I was shown the apartment everything looked clean and organized, but a month later and the trash is all over the place, very dirty laundromat and a treadmill that does not work. Not to mention that packages are stolen. Check Yelp for accurate reviews and photos of how disgusting this place is. I cannot wait for my lease to end so I can get out of here!

We're thrilled to see your five star review! Thank you for the feedback as it helps us in our efforts to provide the best living experience in the area. Let us know if there's ever anything you need. Thank you again!
I would like to review although I did not rent from this property due to price, but I came into the office and had one of the best experiences with the onsite management, Her name is Veronica and she had such a pleasant and friendly attitude and not to mention offered me other properties that may be able to assist me in my hunt. It is hard enough trying to find the right place and she made it so easy and made me want to live on the property just have the experience with her being in charge. Very knowledgeable in her line of work and very professional for that alone I give the property 5 stars! Should I have an opportunity to rent from this property in the future I will definitely take it if she continues to be on site!!!
This place is a dump, although it may be convenient to the ferry terminal and Oakland don't be fooled. The apartments are small with no a/c, outdated single pane windows, no balcony light or bedroom light, no vent that works over the stove or in the bathroom. There are limited laundry room hours, the pool is not heated, and the "gym" is run down. They use gas powered leaf blowers early in the morning and the fumes and noise are outrageous. Proceed with caution
