Fantastic View
by Muskogee OK
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The condo has a fantastic view and easy access to the beach. The building is located on a dead-end street which makes it quieter also. Would definitely stay again.

Room was clean. TV remote didn't work and called to notify the office. I was told they would send a person out and no one showed up. Also, the dryer does not work. It starts and cuts off in about 2 minutes.

End unit with amazing views! Clean with easy parking and beach access.The beach is quiet and not too crowded in this area because of private access. Will definitely rent this again.

Great Condo
by Collierville TN
★★★★★ 5 of 5
This is a beautiful condo we have used in the past and will use again, but it does need some maintenance work. The dead bolt on the lock sometimes sticks and needs to be corrected; this makes it hard to get in sometimes. The shower curtain rod almost fell down and the curtain rod in the living room did come loose.
Response from Benchmark Management

We have passed along this information to the relevant parties in hopes to make updates soon. We were so glad to host you again and we hope you continue to book with us in the future. We look forward to hosting you again! Kind Regards, Benchmark Management

Great view! Nice location.
by Philpot KY
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Really nice condo. Great view and location. Needs a few minor fixes. We had trouble with the lock on two occasions. It would take the code but wouldn't open. Needs new screens on patio doors. I turned one upside down so the rollers would work. At least put new rollers on. With that said, we would definitely rent again!
Response from Benchmark Management
Hello Fred, thanks for staying with us at Eastern Shores. We are so happy to hear that you loved the condo, view as well as the location. We do apologize for the issue with the key pad. We have reached out to our maintenance team to make the necessary checks as such this should not be an issue for future stays. We can also happily report that the screens on the patio doors have been replaced. We would love to welcome you again!
Thanks again for choosing to stay with us!

Great Stay
by Jay
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The condo was clean and neat and had extra pillows and blankets. Everything worked. We had a slight problem getting in the door but called management, they answered and solved the problem immediately. The location and beach was perfect. This is one of the best managed properties I've stayed over the years. I would stay at this property again.

wonderful stay
by columbus oh
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We stay here every year and love it. It is recently updated. The furniture on the balcony is all high top and useless for us - the bathrooms could use some hooks on doors for easier use. This is convenient and close to many places - It's pricey but so is every thing else

Location is the best! Comfy king bed and decor. Only issue was a broken dishwasher. Contacted management company. They got someone out there that day, but had to order part. Not a big deal...we just washed the dishes by hand. We'll be returning! :)

Heavenly View
by MARIETTA GA
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The panoramic views were like no other and so nice to enjoy. Lovely furnishings, location and 3 step access to the beach was a huge plus. We have vacationed along the panhandle for years and find the Seagrove Beach area to be our favorite with less crowds and easy bike access to restaurants and shopping. For future reference, a few items could be improved; tv instructions for the raku TV’s, replacement of soiled/dirty area rugs, better cleaning under bed, can opener for kitchen. We were surprised there was no garbage disposal. When we did have an issue, the management company was very professional, responsive and courteous in resolving. We look forward to returning and highly recommend.

Florida Trip

★★★★★ 5 of 5
I love that the location of Eastern Shores and have stayed there for many years. It is an older building, but is located on the beach and I truly enjoy Seagrove! We were blessed with good weather and enjoyed the beach daily. The condo is close to local restaurants and shops. We always go to Bruno's pizza and it never disappoints. The HUB is also a great place to visit. The property was clean and provided the necessities for our week long stay. Benchmark Management provided us great customer service. I would definitely recommend this property, but hate that the secret of this area is out. When I first started coming to Seagrove 18 years ago, we practically had the beach to ourselves. I can't wait to return next year!
Response from Benchmark Management
We're so pleased that you are a returning guest to Eastern Shores and that you plan to come again. We can't wait to see you again!

Location is great! Benchmark 30A staff very responsive and great to work with. Condo was great for a family of 4 but I think anything more than that would be a stretch. But overall, our stay was great! Would stay here again!

Spring Break 2021
by Gallatin TN
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We enjoyed the beach views and the access to the beach! I think there were some things that could be done to improve our stay. The remotes to the TVs needed new batteries, hair dryers weren’t provided and there needs to be more attention to cosmetic details. There were many items that needed to be cleared out of kitchen drawers and closets including old remotes and construction materials that took up space. Also the access to the beach required key fobs and a key code access was not available. Although a code was given there was no keypad. I would recommend the HOA adding a pad. Overall it was a good experience and I would recommend.
Response from Benchmark Management
Thank you for the feedback. I will pass along your suggestions to the property manager. Regarding beach access, this is determined by the owners association not Benchmark Management. We're glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you will return.

Such a beautiful place!
by Jackson TN
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We were so amazed at how beautiful this place was. The view is breathtaking! The furnishings are perfect. The customer service from Benchmark is excellent!
The only 2 things that we did not like were that there is only parking for one vehicle. I'm sure it says that somewhere, but I didn't pay attention to it. We got it figured out. The other thing was the TV in the bedroom. We had no clue as to how to work ROKU, Netflix, etc. There were channels we could watch, but they were not the normal everyday channels...had no clue what most of the channels were. There needs to be some type of guide in the condo to show people how to use ROKU, Netflix, etc.
We love Seagrove!
Response from Benchmark Management
Hello Chad!
Eastern Shores 106 is definitely a fantastic home, and we also appreciate your feedback on our customer service! We appreciate your feedback about the TV, and will relay that information to our team. Additionally, we do list the parking information on the property listing on our website, as well as in the arrival information. We apologize if it was missed, but are glad that your group had it handled!
We hope to see you again soon for your next gulf visit.

This was a very nice condo with an excellent view! It was well stocked in the kitchen and plenty of bath towels. It was nice to have a designated parking spot. The roads surrounding the condo are congested so you need to watch out for cars, golf carts, bikes and pedestrians.

Anniversary Trip

Location was awesome! Quiet street! Condo was clean and perfect for a little down time! We rented beach chairs from the company on the beach and they were fantastic as well. It would have been better if they were included in the rental! Restaurants were tricky because of Covid so we mostly ate in. We did make the trip to Shunk Gulley and as always it was AMAZING! Kahve & Cream is THE BEST-just go there! You have to get there early for the donuts, you will not regret it!

Seagrove Beach will always be my favorite location. I love the location of Eastern shores- such an easy walk to be beach. My only complaint was that the unit did not feel clean upon arrival. There were crumbs on the floor from the previous renter and I found a fake eyelash inside my sheets in my bed. It just didn’t feel clean like the rentals normally do. Other than that, I have no complaints!
