Nice House

by Piedmont SC

5 of 5

The house was nice and large enough for our group. It was clean and well stocked.

The property surrounding the house could use some upkeep. The area immediately next to the bottom floor was overgrown and walkways were full of sand. I know this is a beach house but the walkways and carport could have been hosed off between guests. The trash can area was very dirty due to squirrels and lack of trash can lids. The fridge in the main kitchen did not work but Benchmark made it right and we received a new fridge by Tuesday.

Overall other than some minor upkeep the house was very nice and the outdoors areas were awesome. Specially the covered porch which was used frequently in the afternoons and evenings as thunderstorms came through.

I would definitely rent this house again. The proximity to the beach was great.

Response from Benchmark Management

Ramon, We are thrilled to hear you had a wonderful vacation staying at our property! We strive to provide our guests with the perfect location and experience when booking their stay with us at Benchmark Management.

We will certainly make note of your suggestion for the area to be well cleaned between stays to ensure future guest satisfaction. We hope you consider Benchmark Management for all your future trips to the beach; we would be honored to host you! Sincerely, Benchmark Management.

Great Location

by Louisville KY

5 of 5

Great location and a great value. We were able to accommodate 4 couples and 6 teens fairly comfortably. Easy walk (<5 minutes) to the beach. Lots of trees surrounding pool so had to deal with leaves in and around pool all week. Spiral staircase only way to access both floors from inside the house, and its pretty narrow for bigger folks...we typically used the outside steps to get between floors. Great house for the price and in a great location.

It was great!!

by Columbia TN

5 of 5

We enjoyed our stay. The house was nice and clean and well kept. The only criticism is that one bedroom on the first floor did not have a chest of drawers for clothes storage which would have been nice. Everything else was very nice for our large grown family and all the grandchildren.

Response from Benchmark Management

Linda, thank you for sharing a review of your stay! We're glad the home was clean and well prepared for a fun family vacation. We've passed along your feedback, so the owner can consider adding a chest to that room which we believe would make a great addition.

Easter weekend

by Starkville MS

5 of 5

The property description was accurate regarding location, layout, and amenities. The TVs were now large smart TVs and the grill was large (we didn't use).

The property inside and out was clean and well-maintained, except the leaves are only removed from the pool on Tuesday apparently. Our 4- and 6-year grandsons had no issues with the small quantity in the pool and the water was clear. The property issues we had were easily overcome. For example, the ice maker was broken; they had supplied ice trays and we bought ice. Although there was hot water in the sink in one bathroom, the "faucet" didn't allow hot water in the shower; 2 people didn't come, so we didn't absolutely need that shower. We didn't contact the management service since it was Easter weekend.

I do recommend this property if the spiral staircase is not an issue.

The beach is close and absolutely beautiful.

Response from Benchmark Management

Robert, We are honored you chose to stay at our property for Easter weekend! We are glad to hear you and your family enjoyed your trip but do want to apologies for the slight issues you ran into. If you happen to have any problems while staying with us at Benchmark Management please give us a call, we would be glad to assist in resolving the issue while on your stay. We hope you choose to book your future trips with us at Benchmark Management, we would be glad to have you! Sincerely, Benchmark Management.

Paradise Living

by Judi

5 of 5

We just returned from Beach Blessing, well named! Our Family of nine experienced days in paradise living. Comfy beds and fluffy towels made us feel like we were in a five star hotel. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and baking. We had plenty of room to gather for meals in the dining area and the screened in porch. Restaurants and food trucks are a 15 minute walk at Seaside. The sand on the private beach is like powder. Sunrises and sunsets are spectacular. The pool provided hours of pleasure and fun. We returned with family memories and a suntan, a blessing for sure. We hope to return in the fall.

away from it all

by Ridgeland MS

3 of 5

The pool was covered with leaves and the patio surrounding it! We never could connect to the wifi because it keep saying the password was wrong.Kept us from being able to check email and work while we were there. Called everyday. The property on the outside could have been a little cleaner and air conditioner downstairs did not cool off the place.

Response from Benchmark Management

Brent, We did have the pool cleaned during your stay the day after you reported it was dirty. We do apologize about the internet not working during your stay; we worked diligently to contact the internet provider for this home but they were unable to assist us until the week following your stay. We have very limited internet options in the area so networks tend to get overwhelmed during busy times. We recommend bringing a personal hotspot for future vacations if you need internet to complete work, as we cannot guarantee the WiFi will be working properly. Had we received any reports of poor air circulation during your stay, we quickly would have sent maintenance to take a look at that for you. We have passed along your comments about the exterior of the home to the owners, as we value guest feedback and take this into consideration so proper care can be given to our properties. We hope to see you again to provide a better beach vacation to you all. Sincerely, Benchmark Management

An excellent location!

by N/A CO

5 of 5

The location was amazing. A very short walk (less than 5 min) to the beach access. Although we did have to cross the busy 30A, there was a crosswalk that was quite safe to cross. Also, the house was only 0.75 miles (less than 15 min walk) to Seaside. We walked to shop and also to get ice cream at night.

The beach area was very private. We felt like we had the whole place to ourselves.

We cooked the entire time. The kitchen was small, but well stocked. Our favorite place was a screened porch where we spent the majority of time eating, talking, playing card games. Very private surrounded by beautiful trees.

We had only 2 problems. The first was that the bedroom and bathroom furnitures were old and dated. Still clean and functional, though. The 2nd problem was the spiral stairway. Haha! We had a running joke who was going to get stuck or to fall down from it.

The rental company (esp Karen) was very helpful from the check in till check out. Very professional.

Overall, our 4 families with teenagers loved this house and stay. Thank you.

Birthday Celebration

by IN

5 of 5

The location of the property from the beach was awesome! It was very spacious and clean. Had all the utensils and amenities needed. The pool is not heated on the summer, however it was still quite chilly since it is in the shade for the majority of the day. There are a few things that need to be fixed in the house within the bathrooms. The screened in porch with table was the best spot in the house and we spent a lot of time there. Nice and quiet, tucked away!

Response from Benchmark Management

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We were honored to have you and are so humbled by your response. Our apologies that we let you down in the bathrooms We work hard each and every day to bring ours guests the best vacation experience. We can’t wait to see you again and make it a complete 5-star experience for you. Sincerely, Benchmark Management

WONDERFUL PROPERTY! THE VERY BEST

by Taylorsville KY

5 of 5

This was a wonderful stay as always at Away from it All. The pool, and short walk to the beach are perfect for social distancing at this time. Our beach isn't crowded, we have the wonderful pool and plenty of rooms.Everything was clean and a well equipped kitchen made for a great visit. This is our 10th year in this house, and we love it! It's perfect for us. The agents and maintenance people were wonderful too, and took care of all our extra needs. Thank you so much!

Extended family vacation of 9 adults, 2teenagers, 4 kids (ages 1-8)- everyone had a great stay! Pool is amazing- good size, private, lots of shade, definitely one of the best in the area. House location to beach is easy and quick- app says 4 minute walk but we felt like it was 2 minutes. Lots of room for everyone to sleep, eat, and relax. This house is definitely one of the best values when visiting this area!
