Recently renewed my contract for another year. Opal is truly a beautiful community with amazing staff. The office team sends you emails with events and updates as much as possible. The maintenance team is incredibly fast and efficient!! Staff is all around very professional and friendly! The complex amenities are great. The gym has more machines and is fairly big compared to some other apartments. Overall, love the atmosphere of Opal. Highly recommend!
