Enjoyed 5 perfect days …the property was exactly as described. Highly recommend the unit. 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.

We loved our stay - the property was beautiful and close to the beach. 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!

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.

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.
