Great stay

It was a wonderful stay! The unit was a little small, but it worked for our family of five. Beautiful updates. Loved riding bikes to Seaside. We were underwhelmed by some of the nearby food, but the coffee and donuts were awesome. The property had a gorgeous view! Loved being able to use provided beach chairs! Would come again for sure!

We had a wonderful weekend anniversary getaway! From the beginning, communication was excellent—Benchmark Management even reached out to let us know the unit was ready early so we could check in ahead of schedule, which was a huge plus.The location was perfect! Just a short, easy walk from the room to the elevator and straight out to the beach. Even better, the beach was peaceful and not overcrowded, which made it all the more relaxing.The condo itself was beautifully decorated and felt like a true coastal retreat. The furniture was very comfortable, and we immediately felt at home.A special shoutout to the management team for going above and beyond—they contacted me after our stay to let me know I had left something valuable behind before I even noticed it was missing, and they’re shipping it back to me. That kind of honesty and care is rare and so appreciated.While there were a couple of minor hiccups—the master shower didn’t drain well, so we used the guest bathroom, and the dishwasher wasn’t working—these things didn’t take away from the overall experience. Everything else was so enjoyable and well-handled that we would absolutely stay here again!Highly recommend this condo and Benchmark Management for anyone looking for a smooth, relaxing beach stay.

One negative is that the bathrooms are small, especially the 2nd bathroom. Also the light on the microwave did not work. Needs some additional lighting in kitchen. Would benefit from under cabinet lighting. Comment on property building - elevator interiors need to be upgraded. Otherwise property (pool and common areas) is very well maintained.

Bob’s review of unit 1101 at BeachCrest

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: Wonderful. Very clean. Design/furniture/colors and wall color choices spot on for a very relaxing vibe. The appliances and washer/dryer excellent. The only issues for me, and they’re not a major, is that I prefer a firm mattress. Just a preference. And the front door lock bolt was a bit difficult to operate. But these are picky little things. Otherwise, no issues. It’s a lovely unit and I’ll definitely be renting again in the future. I’ve stayed at multiple places in Seagrove and Seacrest. I can honestly say it’s the most comfortable, clean, relaxing space I’ve stayed in during the dozens of times I’ve vacationed on 30-A. Great job!

Family of 5 Beach Stay

Condo was perfect for our family of five (three teens/tweens). Decor is lovely, everything was clean, and comfortable. We enjoyed being so close to the beach. The kitchen had all the dishes needed for food prep. No food supplies at all (such as coffee, or even salt and pepper) which I'm sure is due to Covid precautions. For example, it's inconvenient to buy an entire package of coffee filters for the week's stay. Coffee on the balcony overlooking the ocean is a non-negotiable in my book. I brought a hair dryer, but there were two in the unit. Glad we brought our own beach towels. We used the three extra beach chairs for the kids, which were nice to have. We enjoyed renting bikes and riding to Seaside for shopping and food, and along the 30A bike trail. Beds were comfy, internet was great, and I especially enjoyed sleeping to nature's perfect sound machine, the ocean waves. Maybe next time will be a girls trip!

Very nice place

This was a really nice condominium unit. 11th floor views were spectacular and that far up quiet also. It was 2 bed and 2 bath, with large living dining kitchen open area. Very clean when we arrived. Was really nice that they even provided shampoo/soap, etc, but also there were little three packs of laundry detergent, and dishwasher detergents, extra trash bags in each container, all of which was more then sufficient for the week. Great cable tv and smart tv allowed easy access to all streaming services. Balcony was perfect and accessible from living and bedroom. The included beach umbrella/chair service was excellent too. And while the beach service ( and parking too ) were first come first serve, we never had any problem at all getting chairs and/or parking. A lot of these small things really add up to save you some money and time. The office folks on ground floor were incredibly nice and helpful-best I have ever engaged with. Went out of way to help do things. Location was ideal to everything you would want ot do on 30A. We would not hesitate to go back again.

Beachcrest 1101 for Helene

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than 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: We have stayed at Beachcrest condos for many years. The facility is showing its age. The revised property laws in Florida do preserve access to the beach. We arrived a few days before Helene and had to deal with the ensuing chaos. Par for the course.Our unit had a foul odor going on when we arrived but with some airing seemed to recede. The hot water heater sprung a leak and caused puddles in the kitchen. Fortunately the maintenance person quickly repaired that problem.This kitchen in this unit was very sparsely equipped making cooking inconvenient. The dishwasher was practically non-functional. It did make loud noises for hours.Altogether, Beachcrest has become a lower end property that is not what it once was. We will not return.

Perfect getaway

Perfect unit for a weeklong stay. Small condo complex close to shops and food. Quiet and peaceful. Loved that beach chairs/umbrella were included in the rental. Love the contactless check in. Very clean and well maintained facility. Would stay here again!

Hi Candace, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We were happy to have you and are so grateful for your response. We love this unit too, can not be the view of the beautiful Gulf and beach. The location is so convenient to Seaside as well as shops and restaurants. We loved having you and we appreciate your feedback. We work hard each and every day to bring our guests the best vacation experience. We can’t wait to see you again. Sincerely, Benchmark Management

Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: When we arrived the MB shower drained was plugged and there was a light out in the living room which only had two lights. It took Benchmark 4 days and several texts to have the issues taken care of. The unit was clean but the property is not kept that clean. Also be aware that Benchmark only provides one roll of toilet paper as a starter.

We do apologize for the inconvenience. The bulb unfortunately was out of stock and could not get ordered quick enough during your stay. However our team did track one down and it has been replaced . We were happy maintaince was able to repair the drain plug. We would love you to give us a second chance and appreciate the feedback.

Loved being local on 30A

Loved being on the beach and the view was awesome….. centrally located with great restaurants close by - a little far away from golf but enjoyed coming back after golf to 30A scene and the quiet of this area…. Very nice place!
