Welcome to Beach Haven, a spacious coastal home located in the southside 30A neighborhood of Cottages at Eastern Lake. Only 100 footsteps to the palm tree-lined community pool, and half a mile to the Walton Dunes beach access (where there are no steps to the beach).

Upon entry, guests will be greeted by high ceilings and a well-stocked open-concept kitchen with a gas range, perfect for making home-cooked meals or a quick snack to take to the beach. The open living space and dining room provide plenty of comfortable seating for all guests to relax after a long day at the beach or pool.

Refresh every night in the comfortable king beds located in the master bedroom suite and first guest bedroom suite, or the queen bed in the second guest bedroom suite. The kids can relax in the 2 bonus rooms which consist of 2 twin-over-full bunk beds and a cozy daybed.

This home backs up to the natural Preserve area of Watersound West Beach and is just a few blocks from Seaside, Rosemary Beach, and plenty of shopping. Complimentary bikes are available on the property for you to enjoy a beautiful bike ride down 30A to grab an ice cream or listen to live music at many of the local venues.

Beach Haven Amazing 🌴
Beautiful beach home in a super cute private location, tucked back next to 30A. Lined with gorgeous palm trees on a quiet brick road. We absolutely loved our stay here in Santa Rosa. House was exactly as described, even more amazing in person, very clean. Decorated with cute beach accents making you feel like you’re on vacation🌴☀️. Very spacious and comfortable for all! It had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable, loved the cute claw tub! Beach access was just a short bike ride or relaxing walk away. Very convenient location for everything 30A has to offer. Riding bikes along 30A and exploring each village along the way is a must. So much fun! Thank you Beach Haven for the family memories and amazing winter getaway! Hope to be back soon!

A Dream Come True
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: We spent several fabulous weeks here. It is only a short walk or bike (provided) ride to the best beach in Florida. The water is crystal clear and you sink up to your ankles as you walk in the sugar white sand on the beach. Memories of a lifetime for sure!

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: We had initially booked another beachfront townhome for this trip. Ten days from our expected arrival, the owners canceled our rental. Benchmark provided us some alternatives, and we chose this home. Although it was not on the beach, it was very nearby; and the house couldn't have been more beautiful and beachy! We did arrive to no AC upstairs, but that was fixed before bedtime. Very quiet and peaceful home and neighborhood with everything you need for a great vacation.

Family Vacay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beach Haven was a great spot for our family. We enjoyed being a few houses down from our relatives who own a house on this same street. The back porch and living space was one of our favorite areas to hang when not at the beach! We enjoyed cooking at home and used both the well stocked kitchen and the Blackstone which was great for outdoor cooking. It was a convenient location for us and we enjoyed having the bikes to ride however we did end up renting a golf cart to make it easier to haul our items to the beach! But, it is not a bad bike ride. I have two things that I would suggest to Benchmark or owners... There were no blankets (we are blanket people when watching TV and having coffee in the am) and it would have been nice to have some. Also, although we only had 5 people staying, it would have been great to have a little more seating in the living area( like a sectional). We loved the proximity to the coffee shop and Old Florida fish house and the beach was the least crowded of beaches that we have been to on 30A. Overall, we had a great vacation and would definitely rent here again.

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 do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall the house is nice and in a good location. My biggest recommendation to the management company would be to review cleaning procedures and quality. The showers need cleaned thoroughly and the floors need mopped. I understand sand will always be an issue at a beach property but the floors have not been mopped in quite a while. I would rate the property 6 out of 10 that could be a 10 if it was cleaned and maintained better.
