Perfect location!
by Thibodaux LA
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. The condo was clean and very well-equipped. Although there was lots of construction and remodeling going on during the time that we were there, we were never inconvenienced. We walked or biked to Alys Beach every morning for breakfast, and the beach was quiet and not overcrowded. If you can’t handle stairs, however, this is not the place for you. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking to stay along 30A.

Fun family trip
by Calhoun LA
★★★☆☆ 3 of 5
Condo was very nice. Beds were comfy, appliances worked well, and it was pretty much as described. The furniture was covered in some very inexpensive slipcovers, but they appeared to be clean so it was no big deal. A few minor issues—an outlet in the kitchen didn’t work and was very loose, the dishwasher was about to fall out of the cabinet because the board at the top wasn’t stabilized well. The big issue was a leaky window. It had been repaired, but was very poorly done and the safety of the window is questionable. We called for maintenance when we arrived, and to our knowledge, no one came to look at it when we were there.
Overall, our stay was still quite enjoyable and if there’s minor issues and the window were repaired properly, I would stay here again. Great view, nice complex, easy parking.

Our Annual Mental Health Retreat
by Tyler TX
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We had a great time at Tranquility 220! The condo was so nice! Well equipped kitchen. Plenty of seating. And we just loved the location. We bicycled to Rosemary. Close to the Publix on 98 and the Donut Hole. The only thing we noticed is that some of the plugs (lamps)didn’t work in the bedrooms. Found one that did behind the furniture so we could plug in a cpap machine. All in all it was terrific and we will book again in the future!! Plus I have already recommended to friends!

Tranquility 220
by Fenton MO
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The location is fantastic and the condo complex is very nice. The unit we stayed in was overall very nice. However, the furniture is discolored from dirt and some of the light bulbs were burned out. Also, some of the electrical outlets didn’t work in the kitchen. The coffee pot and toaster wouldn’t work properly which were annoying but not a big deal. It looks like the unit had been started to be painted as in cut in but not finished. All in all these things were very minor and didn’t detract from our stay as the beds were comfortable, the AC worked great, the unit was overall clean and the view was amazing. But when you are paying the amount that is being charged these days the unit should be kept up a little better.

Nice Location but Condo needs some care
by Knoxville TN
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The location is great, right on the beach. The condo, however, needs some TLC. Some windows need replaced due to vapor between the panes, and there are little things like curtain rods that need adjusting, some drywall screws that need to be fixed, etc. I would recommend the owners go through with a fine toothed comb and fix the issues for future guests.

Just OK
by Huntsville AL
★★★☆☆ 3 of 5
We were not impressed with this unit. First of all, the sliding glass door to the outside deck needs to be replaced. You can't even see out of it. Also, the window blinds to the back deck are completely broken. Same for the master bedroom. The A/C works well for every room except the master bedroom. The furniture in the living room is old, worn, and dirty looking. Several electrical outlets will not hold plugs. Also, this unit is on the second floor so you can't see the beach from inside or on the deck. All the TVs were too small (especially the living room). The sliding door to the balcony was virtually impossible to open from the outside. I would not stay in this unit again unless it was updated.

We did not receive any communication of these issues, but certainly would've been happy to assist you with what we were able to at that time.

Friends vacation-220 Tranquility
by McKinney TX
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Everything was wonderful, we had such a great time, even with the rain.
The only thing that I would recommend would be to have more silverware, it seemed that we where always having to wash some just to have a meal together.
Response from Benchmark Management
Thank you choosing to stay at Tranquillity 220 for your vacation. We're so glad that you had a great time there. We apologize for there not being adequate silverware. The property manager will take care of this. Please come again!

Recent Tranquility Stay
by edmond OK
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
The amenities of Tranquility were great. Easy beach access, great pool, parking, and well kept grounds. The unit needed a deep clean (under the coffee table and couches were super dirty, cobwebs in the corners, needed some bug treatments). The kitchen lacked many basic things (bring your own wine opener), and also needed a deep clean. Having a washer and dryer was great.
Response from Benchmark Management
Nic,
Thank you for your feedback! All thoughts are appreciated as they help us to improve! We're happy to hear that you were pleased with all the advantages of Tranquility. We are going to be working on inventories and deep cleans during off season (October - February) so most of these problems should be addressed soon. We are sorry to hear that it was not up to your standards for your stay though! We will definitely be working on this! We hope that we are able to give you a complete five-star experience the next time you come!
Thank you,
Benchmark Management.

★★★★☆ 4 of 5
Thanks for everything -- we had a great stay. The condo was in great shape -- clean and clearly well managed. The process leading up to and checking in for our stay was easy and your staff was friendly and helpful throughout -- especially when we had a medical emergency. Our only suggestions are that we really needed more paper products (paper towels, toilet paper) for six people for 5 days, there were no coffee filters, and not enough kitchen towels. Otherwise our stay was perfect.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tranquility. The location is great....just enough off the beaten path that you have some breathing room, but close enough to walk or ride to all the action. Our unit was very nice, with wonderful views of the ocean. We would definitely consider renting the unit again!
