Professional Insight (SPHYNX):

From repeated move-ins and inspections, Embassy Gardens stands out for its lively resort feel and strong corporate-rental demand. Noise levels around courtyards are higher than ultra-quiet enclaves, but day-to-day management, landscaping and pool/gym upkeep are generally strong. For investors, the mix of short/medium-term lets and long-term corporate tenants supports occupancy when managed correctly.
