What residents like
- ✓The variety of on-site sport courts (tennis, basketball, racquetball) is frequently mentioned as a differentiator versus newer, amenity-lighter communities
- ✓Renovated interiors with granite-style counters and hardwood-style flooring in an otherwise 1989-built property draw positive comment
- ✓The lakeside setting and walking/biking trails are cited as a peaceful counterpoint to the busy University Drive corridor nearby
Common complaints
- ✕As an 18-building, nearly 500-unit garden-style property built in 1989, some reviewers note dated exteriors and parking-lot layouts compared to newer builds
- ✕A few residents mention noise carrying between units in the older two-story buildings
- ✕Reviewers note landscaping and building upkeep can vary noticeably from building to building within the large complex
Our take
Centro at Davie is a large, 1989-built garden-style community managed by Highmark Residential, known for its extensive recreational courts and lakeside grounds. It suits budget-conscious and sports-minded renters, with a reputation for good amenities balanced against the age and inconsistent upkeep typical of an older, large-scale property.

About these pros & cons
How we build these pages: we read publicly available resident reviews (Google, ApartmentRatings, Yelp, Reddit and similar) for each community and summarize the recurring themes in our own words. We don't copy review text, we don't display star ratings we didn't compute, and no complex has paid to appear or to have anything removed. Cons reflect what residents report — experiences vary. Rent ranges come from public listings and change often; always confirm current pricing, fees and policies with the property directly.
