Very clean and the beds were comfortable - the porch was lovely. Only concern was the wifi - if you need to work while you’re there I would suggest a mobile hot spot - otherwise a fantastic place! ##### Elizabeth M.

Would stay there again. Comfortable beds. Plenty of beach chairs toys etc. kitchen had all the amenities. Only suggestion would be that unit should provide coffee filters. View was amazing. Unit was updated and spacious. ##### michelle h. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Susan F. Sep 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Property with best views and beach access Plenty of room for 6 adults to comfortably stay and had hoped to have 8 but 2 were unable to join us. Clean, well maintained and perfect for us. We did have a slight problem with Master Bath having an unpleasant odor after showers but solved the dilemma by running fan and closing bathroom door. Kitchen is well stocked with a double oven, nice sized fridge and plenty of bathroom towels and washcloths. Bring your own beach towels and take them up on beach chair rentals, the company they suggest is also wonderful. The management was prompt and responsive when we let them know about the odor. And you cannot beat the views! ##### Susan F. Stayed 8 nights in Sep 2023 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### shaun l.

I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unit 5B was great for us! We had the best access to the beach and 2 balconies with seating and gorgeous views of the gulf. Nice large kitchen with plenty of plates and utensils to have meals at the condo. The property was clean and there were 6 of us staying there. Our sons are tall, 6'2" and 6'4" but both slept in the xl twin room and had enough space to sleep comfortably. Our bed was very comfortable also, and we had plenty of towels. The amenities exceeded my expectations because there were beach chairs that we hadn't expected! We would recommend this condo. ##### shaun l. Stayed 5 nights in May 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 4/10 Poor #### Jennifer W. Nov 13, 2024 #### Won’t stay with Benchmark again Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. 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 do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was great! Clean, perfect location, and beautiful. Unfortunately while we were out for breakfast, two people showed up to do maintenance at the condo and we were not informed ahead of time nor did Benchmark know who those people were when we contacted them. So we came home to strangers in our place and Benchmark didn’t know. They did give us one nights credit but we were there a day and a half and he spent part of that time watching our stuff while the strangers did maintenance. We appreciated Benchmark responding but due to safety concerns, we won’t stay with them again ##### Jennifer W. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia V. Jul 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### July visit The location was great. The unit had everything we needed and was clean. The A/C was not sufficient in the second bedroom and the loft. Fans and a portable A/C provided cooling and air flow to make those rooms comfortable. Adults, watch your heads in the loft. Suggestion - move the bike rack so that 5B guests can back their car out of the parking space. Overall, it was great. The credit for beach gear was nice. The company said that we had only $20 for each day of a 7 day stay, tho our rental agreement said we had $245\. Somehow I was charged about $13 for running over my credit, tho I did not. We searched for a full day for the things we had arranged to be delivered bc we were not told where they would be and then were given the wrong info. Despite the confusion on amount and drop spot, the credit was a nice bonus. ##### Patricia V.

We had a few issues that really did not affect our wonderful Month stay. The Plugs did not work in either upastairs Bath, I don't use a Hair Dryer , my wife does. We called on 02/02, a man came out and said he did not know how to fix " Breaker 13 " Benchmark said an Eletrician would be forthcoming. This never happened...... We also mentioned on 02/02 that Ants were on the Kitchen Counter, the Exterminator was prompt. 2 weeks later the Ants were back. The Front Left Burner on the Stove did not work and the Front Right did not heat evenly. The Floor in the 1/2 bath definitely needed to be cleaned, i took care of this. DV 5A is Magnificent at our ages the steps were a bit much this trip. We reserved Beachside #1 for 2024.Many Thanks, Scott and Michele DeCleene ##### Scott D. ### 10/10 Excellent #### scott a.

It is beautifully decorated and the perfect amount of space for our family of 2 adults and 4 kids. The kitchen had everything we could need and is very organized. It is about a 5 min bike ride into Seaside which was great for our teenagers. The view from the balconies is amazing. The beach outside the condo is not crowded and they provide everything you could want on the beach. The weather was rather cold during our stay, but they have plenty of games and movies to keep the entire family entertained. We would definitely return. Thanks so much! ##### Brian S.

Aug 25, 2023 #### Wouldn't stay in 5b again until changes were made Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 5b ProsLocationViews for daysStorage for beach itemsQuite family friendly5b consMaster bathroom absolutely STINKS/SMELLS! The toilet is too low smells and needs to be replaced. We kept the fan running and the door closed the entire stay.The master bathroom needs to be replaced. The sink light was hanging off the wall.2nd bathroom same here. It needs to be replaced.The shower curtain has mildew or mold all over the bottom of it. The artwork is falling of the wall.The ceiling in the living area has mildew or mold around the air vents.The appliances in the kitchen all have rust stains on the outside of them.Stuff is jammed packed in the lower cabinets comes across as unorganized and junkyDishwasher doesn't work with pods we washed things twice I ended up hand washing most of the time.Air conditioner works but not the best still had to use floor fans to keep the air moving and cool. Air conditioner leaked to the bottom unit.We never called Benchmark about concerns we didn't want to deal with maintenance issues on our vacation. Housekeeping should be informing about these kinds of issues. 5b needs a deep cleaning needs paint touch ups throughout new bathrooms and tlc it's starting to show its wear and tear. ##### shannon t.

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: This townhome had the best location on the beach! Private access right next to this unit. Beautiful beach and not as busy as some of the other neighboring beaches. It was great to rent bikes and ride around town on your bikes because traffic is busy during spring break. We did have some minor setbacks. The dishwasher was already broken when we got there. But nobody told us. After trying to wash dishes in the dishwasher four times I called maintenance and they said that they knew it was broken and were waiting for a part to arrive. They did come the next day and fix it. But just a heads up would've been great so I didn't think I was doing something wrong and waste my time messing around with the dishwasher. We were at the beach when they did send the maintenance guy in to fix the dishwasher. No one told us he was there and my daughter walked in to the villa by herself with a strange guy in there. It really freaked her out. I think a text would've been great to say hey we're sending someone over and if you're not home they will let themselves in. We had no idea and for my 15-year-old to walk and by herself and have a strange person in there was upsetting. The loft on the third floor we never actually used because the ceilings are lower. If you're an adult you would have a hard time using that loft. And of course there's no door since it is a loft. Master bathroom did have a little bit of a smell to it. Not sure what was going on there. We did not call maintenance since we were already dealing with maintenance with the dishwasher. Did not want to waste my vacation pointing out every single problem. We also had major problems using the keypad to open the villa door. It didn't always work. All five of us had problems with it. We were putting in the right code and hitting the checkmark. It was quite a pain. I was suggest giving someone a back up key too. ##### Monica M.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented 5B dunes villas in Santa Rosa Beach. The condo was very nice as was the beach, but the construction going on was very awful. We were told we would hear back about our concerns and never have. I was very disappointed in this rental company. We go on vacation every year and would never use them again! ##### Lori B.

Reviewer Comments: Dune Villa 5A. Absolutely a Magnificent view and location. We had a few issues that really did not affect our wonderful Month stay. The Plugs did not work in either upastairs Bath, I don't use a Hair Dryer , my wife does. We called on 02/02, a man came out and said he did not know how to fix " Breaker 13 " Benchmark said an Eletrician would be forthcoming. This never happened...... We also mentioned on 02/02 that Ants were on the Kitchen Counter, the Exterminator was prompt. 2 weeks later the Ants were back. The Front Left Burner on the Stove did not work and the Front Right did not heat evenly. The Floor in the 1/2 bath definitely needed to be cleaned, i took care of this. DV 5A is Magnificent at our ages the steps were a bit much this trip. We reserved Beachside #1 for 2024.Many Thanks, Scott and Michele DeCleene ##### Scott D.

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: This rental has great views, quick and easy access to the beach and the process could not have been simpler. The kitchen is nicely updated with everything you could need and there is a big open area on the main floor. There are a lot of stairs in this unit (stairs up to the main living area and then 2 more floors above that for the bedrooms) so be aware if you have mobility challenges. The outdoor spaces were a highlight - great views and sounds of ocean. ##### A guest from N/A, CO This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dave M.
