This condo does have a nice ocean view but the smell ruined it for me.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I could not totally relax. There was a family of rats skittering around outside coming and going from the left side of the grassy area. This made me suspect of every sound I heard inside. The view was awesome - just difficult to enjoy when every sound made you jump. Some texts were not responded to: parking pass and code to the gate to get to the beach. Had to go out the sliding doors; therefore leaving unit unsecured.

Vacation

Location is great. Management responded promptly to our multiple concerns. Would recommend someplace for renters to store non perishable food items and about a third of the patio has things either left or stored there so non-usable space. We did have to sweep the porch before we could sit out there.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: took two 15 year old grandchildren for their first experience on the gulf. They had to sleep on the floor the whole week, because the sofa that was advertised as pull out, didn't pull out anything. Very dissappointed that have to pay $3000 for unit and have to sleep on floor. Otherwise the unit was fine. We have used Benchmark a lot in the past with great results, this was the first time we got a dud condo.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My wife and I had a wonderful time on the more secluded beach of seagrove and loved being right on the beach. It rained a few days and there was a riptide for a few others so having the wonderful view and large slide window doors made a huge difference in our experience.

Great location and view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is very good and the sunset in the evening time is even better! We really enjoyed our time! The only complaint I have is that you could tell the floors weren’t cleaned and the tables by the couch were very dusty. Also, the doors were extremely hard to open/close and the blinds barely did anything due to many of them missing and not closing all the way. Even with this issue we will still be back!

Love this place!

I have stayed at Emerald Hill 1 several times, and I love it. It’s comfortable, in a great location, and spacious for a one-bedroom condo. The only suggestion I have is to put some grab bars in the bathroom to make getting in and out of the tub a great deal safer.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the location. We stayed in this unit years ago and we decided to come again because of its location. Emerald Hill One is a little run down though. Could use a little cosmetic work. Would probably use it again especially if it ever gets some light renovation. We had a great time! Would recommend the unit but with some reservation.

It was a delightful respite from the usual everyday chores . The condo was comfortable made us feel relaxed and rested and sad to have to leave. But we were rested for our trip home.

I would highly recommend this unit to anyone. The location and the setting is stellar. We had cleanliness concerns. The bathtub was filthy as was the shower curtain and the floor. I was a little concerned about mold.

Great location but property needs work

This property is in a prime location on the first floor with easy access to the beach. The property is in need of lots of maintenance. There was mold in the bathroom, the windows had lost there seal so they were clouded, the furniture was very uncomfortable and the kitchen was so small that you could only open the refrigerator partially. I would not stay in this property again.
