We had a great experience here. The location was ideal -- away from the crowds of seaside but close enough to bike 5.5 miles and 1-2 miles from Alys Beach and Rosemary beach. Unit was clean and communication from management company was great. We had an overflowed toilet on a Sunday afternoon and they brought us new towels and sent housekeeping within a few hours. I would stay here again. The beach chair set ups every day were a really nice benefit. We had bikes delivered from the rental places that offered one free set as well.

Condo was clean but no supplies for dishwasher, laundry or dish cleaning soap were provided as stated in the contract. Ice maker didn’t work, there was no ice, fireplace didn’t work and it was very cold during our stay. No gate code was provided upon check in so we had to wait. Thus, the low reviews. The door to the patio was also broken and wouldn’t stay closed unless locked at all times.

Fabulous Vacation

The condo is the perfect location for biking to Rosemary or driving to Watercolor. The condo offered easy, close and private access to the beach. Benchmark was super easy to work with and provided excellent communication and responses from the day we booked the trip until check out. They were super nice and responsive to any questions we had during the week. The private parking is a plus as well. The condo had plenty of room for a family and was very comfortable and homey. We would book here again.

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: This was our third time to stay at this specific condo. We are a blended family and love the fact it is on the beach with great views of the ocean. We love that everything you need to make the stay is within 10min, so it makes it easy if you need groceries/restaurants/etc, are close by. Property description is spot on. There were only a couple of things that would make the stay better is having the oven recalibrated as it cooked on the cooler side and bigger skillet, not a deal breaker as we will be back next year, if at all possible!!! Thanks, Tim

Private trumps public

This place is more than the pictures show. You can smell the subtle hint of the cleanliness thru the bleach smell and not the fake Febreeze masking cleaner as soon as you open the door. Our nose told us it was clean as our eyes were amazed at how beautiful the property is. The view of the ocean coupled with the silence and lack of "public" access really made it the most relaxing experience. My wife and I love it!

Beautiful Room and Views

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: Pros - Very clean and neat. Beautiful stunning views. Attentive Management group, and individuals who come to fix items. Cons - No notice the Elevator was out of order and Luggage was very difficult for this 75 year old to get up the stairs. Light fixture in bedroom 3 was falling out of the wall. When trying to make a meal nothing about the Oven would work, only the stove top functioned. Wifi - was very weak to none. Three of us spent way too much time trying to get our work tasks done. We left a day early to get home to care for some of those tasks. The worker who changed out the Media equipment when we were there did not give us the new Wifi address so we struggled thinking that didn’t change. When telling the Management company of our struggles they offered a 5% discount on the next stay - hardly compensating for our frustrations and lost vacation time.

Monterey A201

Location is outstanding! The overall complex has some age, so the floor plan and built-in furnishings (cabinets, kitchens, bathrooms) are dated. The bedrooms are spacious. The den area and the bathrooms, however, are not. A smart TV would be a nice addition. As well, an upgrade with the bedding (especially the sheets) would be a welcome addition. One item needing immediate attention is the chairs (4) around the table on the deck. They are a rusty mess and need to be replaced. Again, Monterey has a great location. The complex has a nice size pool. The beach itself is wide. Overall, I would give this condo (A201) a B- grade. Our party of 4 adults greatly enjoyed our visit.

Family Vacation

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 rented this property over Mother's Day weekend for a short stay with our two children and my sister. We found the property in great condition, very clean, and well appointed to suit our needs. The extra toys in the closet came in handy after our 18 month old grew bored with the few things we had brought. This property has a great location if you are wanting to be near Rosemary and Alys but avoid the crowded beaches. It was very quiet and we had plenty of room to play on the beach. The beach service doesn't take up the whole beach here like they do at some other properties, which was nice as we had our own space to set up our umbrellas and chairs. The heated pool was wonderful for our kids as the ocean water was still quite chilly. The location of this condo puts you about 1.5 miles from Rosemary and 1.5 miles from The Hub. This gave us easy bicycle access to plenty of restaurants and shops. We would likely stay at this property again.
