Great for a week!

We stayed during the off-season for a week. Awesome location and can’t beat the price we paid! House needs a little upkeep and tlc but easily overlooked with the location and view

Do not stay here . Safety issues persistent throughout the stay and the management company did nothing to help us. Benchmark management is terrible. We had issues with doors not locking completely and an electric shock from wires hanging from behind the cabinet in the kitchen. Safety is not their concern. Doors not locking wherever there is water and strangers could walk on in. The wires hanging down and could electrocute someone. The grill that was promised was completely rusted and broken. The upstairs bathroom has broken tile on the floor and it feels like it could collapse. I had nothing but issues and every time I reached out they said they would fix the problems and nobody ever came by to help. We were promised a great getaway and had nothing but worries and safety problems.

Great Location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Check-in was easy. The location and property was great! We enjoyed our stay and there was plenty of room for our family. The only negative was that when we arrived, there was sand in all the bedsheets. I'm not sure if the sheets were changed, or if there is a problem with the washer/dryer and it isn't getting the sheets clean all the way. We had to wash all the linens. I would evaluate the cleaning crew/company you are using. Also, the ceiling fan on the 1st floor needs to be cleaned. The bathrooms were all great and it has a great kitchen! We enjoyed our stay.

Had a really good time

There was a lot of things wrong with the condo itself. We called management 8 times and nobody would call back. We we finally got someone to help us they said they had not been told about the prior 7 phone calls???Refrigerator didn't work the whole time we were there. Had to use mini fridges the entire week. The door locks and latches didn't work, some tv's were broken. landscape was very unkept, bath tub didn't drain. I don't normally leave negative reviews but sometimes it's needed. We had a wonderful time but when you pay almost 6000 dollars for a rental you at least expect a refrigerator. We lost a lot of groceries but our money for them was reimbursed. Nothing was reimbursed for the rental itself, just the groceries. They said they were going to reimburse some of the rental but of course we never heard back from them.

Cannot beat this view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was perfect for our crew.Be prepared to walk 3 indoorflights, as there’s 3 different levels. Sand is an issue, you’re at the beach. Try to ignore it. Ha!There were cosmetic things that were wrong, but I messaged management and they assured it would be addressed after we departed. Plenty of beach toys/chairs on back patio below. No need to bring any!

Family Beach Stay

Overall this is a wonderful property. Our family very much enjoyed it. My only feedback is that the bottom floor patio and exit to the beach was messy and had several broken items scattered around.

Beautiful Spot

The stay was lovely, the only complaint I do have is that there was not a broom or dust pan or anything to help us keep the sand at a minimum. It’s the beach, there will be sand, obviously. But not having a broom to keep after it seems a little odd to me. The property management company was not super helpful when I reached out asking if maybe it accidentally got locked into a cleaning closet. Aside from that, it was as advertised just well lived in and loved. Which is okay by me. Area is great, pool was great, beach was great. Overall a wonderful experience. I’d come back, just with my own broom and dust pan! Enjoy your stays here. Very safe with kiddos.

Great location, but issues with this unit

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was great, but unit needs work. Pots and pans were in very poor condition with some rusted. Wood on deck by shower was warped causing possible injury. Bottom level had roaches as well. Upon arrival we had no key fob for the pool area. Benchmark kept saying they were bringing us replacements, but never delivered our whole stay.

Best Location You Could Ask For

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Want to wake up and walk right out to the water? Stay here. The condo was immaculate and all rooms were the same as advertised. Bathrooms are located on each level which was really convenient and we were never short on hot water for showers. Overall, this is a really great place to stay. We did encounter a few things that were inconvenient but not impossible. For example, the exit gate from the property did not open without someone exiting the vehicle/walking outside, and entering the code from the outside. We had several people arriving at different times. The day before the arrival we called to ask about an early check-in. Mgt offered a substantial fee to do so. Sort of surprised we weren't offered an hour or two as a courtesy, but that was also just an inconvenience.This is a great property for a vacation! In fact, someone stopped me on the beach to ask about rental because they thought it was much better than what they were renting down the beach.

Kicking off the Summer with the Family

We really enjoyed our stay in Santa Rosa. The location was fabulous!! Right on the beach and close walking distance to shops and Restaurants. This unit met our family needs perfectly! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the balconies had lovely furniture with plenty of comfortable seating. The balconies were our favorites spots to drink coffee and eat breakfast and dinner. The pups absolutely LOVED being with us vacation!! They loved the breeze blowing their ears, lol. Comfortable beds, great AC, comfortable living room room furniture, everything was great!!
