Only compliments about our stay, the updated renovation, and the included cookware. We brought our own beach chairs which was a good idea because the included beach chairs and umbrella are not available during the winter months due to the contracted beach-side service. The easy walk out access to the beach was wonderful for early morning walks on the beach. We would love to stay there again.

The best part was being able to reserve beach chairs and umbrella with no hassle of having to pack our own. It saved so much time & being able to walk straight down to the beach was a plus. Location is great & the place is spotless.
The unit itself is okay. It’s the view and the beach access that gives this unit its value.

I had a great stay at this little condo on the beach. It provided a quiet spot on the coast for relaxing and taking walks, as well as easy access to other areas along the coast for exploring, hiking, and enjoying local farmer's markets, fish markets and local restaurants, as well as convenient access for groceries. I found it thoughtfully equipped, clean and comfortable, with a tasteful beach vibe!
This unit is on the first floor. There is a very short flight of stairs to the first floor with parking in front of the unit. This made loading and loading very easy. This property is conveniently located on 30A close to restaurants and shopping. Evenings were quiet without the noise of traffic or rowdy groups. The bed was very comfortable, and the air conditioning kept the temperatures in an excellent range. The patio is also a great place to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

One bedroom gulf front condo that was comfortable but could use a little TLC. The mattress in the bedroom was uncomfortable and could be replaced. The light in the kitchen was broken and needs to be fixed. The curtain on one of the windows was hanging on by a screw and almost falling off.

This was a short trip we added and found this retreat with beach access. It was a nice spot, well equipped, easy in ( first floor) and out ( boardwalk right to the water). A few daily needs were met with kindness and promptness. The bed in the main room is a queen, it was comfortable but may need updating in the future. There was also a pull out couch but we didn’t use it. If you love sunsets, this is your spot .

The door code we were given was incorrect. I spent about 20 minutes on the phone with a member of the team getting the correct code to let our family in when we arrived. Upon arrival, WiFi and TV did not function. Notified management multiple times and this was never resolved. The location was beautiful and access to the beach was great. If the management team would be more “on top” of problems that occurred this would have been an excellent stay.

Reviewer Comments:
We no problem accessing the condo using the code. Everything was very clean and smelled nice. The bed was comfortable and the a/c worked great on a hot Florida day. If you want to make a pot of coffee, make sure you bring your own filters. They had plenty of dishes and glasses. There was some unfinished drywall in the bedroom/bathroom area that made it feel a little ghetto. The TV in loving room worked great. I just logged into streaming apps on my phone and mirrored it to the TV. The TV in the bedroom would not allow this feature. The view of the beach was blocked by the ramp leading out. On a positive note, the location was great, parking was easy, and the EXTREMELY easy access to the beach. Chairs and an umbrella are available on the beach, but I would rather use my own chairs and tent for shade. Overall, I’d probably stay again.
We arrived to find easy parking right next to our room. We did have to call to get a new door code when we arrived, but it was an easy process. We found the room exceptionally clean! We loved the patio overlooking the water and the close proximity to the beach. The stairs to scale down to the beach are a bit steep— I can imagine littles and folk with bad knees may struggle. It’s because of the dunes. We absolutely loved that it came with seasonal beach chairs and an umbrella so we didn’t have to drag our stuff up and down. If your room has comp chairs (which this one does), then it is first come first serve to get a pair of chairs/umbrella. We had no issue with this as we loved getting to the beach early (7-8AM) to start our day. You can “claim” by placing towels and such on the chairs. If there are pink name tags on back, those are paid for by other guests without comp rooms I’m assuming. I do wish the back sliding door (which leads to patio then directly to boardwalk) could be locked from the outside. We did not want to leave the room unlocked so we had to go around the front and side to get to the board walk. Honestly not a big deal, but could be a good addition.
A few minor cons: no salt/pepper, only 1 roll of toilet paper, big curtains that cover the beautiful glass sliding door are kind of hard to pull. You’ll want them shut at night for privacy.
Just a short drive to shops/food! I would not say this is walkable to much, but could be bikable!

Reviewer Comments:
The condo was very clean, small but perfect for two adults. Location is great, lots of up and down to the beach, buts that’s about everywhere on 30A. No concerns with the unit itself whatsoever. We did have some confusion on the entry code, as we were sent one to use IF we arrived early. We did not arrive early, yet the original code did not function as it should have. That could have been done differently I think. We were a little discouraged to learn the “complimentary chairs and table” actually did not include the table, and meant first come first serve. So, 630 or 7 am found us trekking down the stairs to “claim” chairs with our towels. A little confusion also where the tv is concerned. A Roku remote implied to us Netflix and Hulu possibly were available, but we just could not make it happen. Maybe a note with instructions? Finally, we had maintenance guys on our patio doing work for several hours on one afternoon. It would have been nice to know in advance if our patio would be unavailable to us at any time during our stay. Overall tho— the place was very nice. Updated, comfortable bed, plenty of towels, and a great view.

Reviewer Comments:
This condo was not our first choice. We were moved here due to construction at our original choice. The location is great- we love being beachfront and within biking distance of Rosemary and Alys Beach. If I’m being honest, the condo is OK. The view of the beach from the balcony is obstructed by the walkway. We love to watch the waves while having coffee and you can’t see the waves from this unit. The bed was not comfortable and the floors throughout the unit feel like a sticker, rather than real vinyl. We also thought from the description of this condo that we would have beach chairs included but upon arriving and asking about it, they were not since we came outside of the warm weather season. The fridge is also very small. Otherwise, we enjoyed our trip. We won’t stay in this condo again and likely won’t use Benchmark again - very late notice on the condo we chose being unavailable. But again, this location is wonderful and we did enjoy our vacation very much. Also - props on having games! We played scrabble and Jenga and had a great time with that.
