First time on 30A
by Bethel OH
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
As a couple in our 60s, were were comfortable in this condo. Overall, it was clean, but a few of the dishes could use some scrubbing. The TV was iffy at times during the day; it kept blipping through the shows. While the beach is a short walk, it wasn't easy to find a place to sit there since several of the homes have private beaches where we could not set chairs. The pools in the complex took turns being closed for some reason. We were notified via text when they closed, but not again when they opened. Not sure why the laundry room must be locked by 8 p.m. Again, minor inconveniences since we were there with family to enjoy being together.

Response from Benchmark Management
Thank you so much for your feedback, Tammy!
We area glad to hear that you enjoyed Beachwood Villas 8E, proximity to the beach, and the amenities like the pools. It's also great that the condo had everything you needed in the kitchen. Tile floors can indeed be a bit challenging to keep clean, but it sounds like you had an overall positive experience.
We hope to have you back again soon for more walks on the beach!
Kind regards,

One Bedroom Steps from Beach Access
by Wylie TX
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We were very happy with this one bedroom unit in Beachwood Villas. It is ground floor with two parking spots very close by. Beach access is about a two minute walk. The unit was very clean. We did not use the kitchen a great deal but it seemed appropriately stocked. The hospitality app provided by Benchmark made all the steps very easy, including the access codes. We followed up on their local recommendations for fishing and restaurants. Would return and recommend.

Cute and comfy
by Hoover AL
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Our condo was cute and well-kept. We found it clean and comfortable, and relatively convenient to the beach. The grounds are well kept and the pools are clean and refreshing. The condo could use a little updating, but we were glad to be on the ground floor. Our only complaint is that the Beachwood access leads to an area that is claimed as “private beach” and we had to walk to public beach be near the water and use the backpack chairs we rented. This was not the case on our previous visit to Beachwood. We hope this can be changed, or we will need to find another place to stay. Please keep us posted on this situation.

Thank you so much for taking the time to submit your review! We agree the Beachwood Villas in Seagrove are a great condo complex that offers a great location, two community pools to choose from, and beach access just across the street.. As Beach Access goes the County decides different zones and some zones only allow certain vendors to set up in those general areas. We are sorry to hear this caused an inconvenience for you. Beach rules change quite often and can cause for disappointment at times and that is beyond our control. We hope that you will give us another chance in the future. We look forward to seeing your family again in the future. We would love to see you all again for another vacation that makes you feel right at home with us.
Sincerely Benchmark Management.

Enjoyed our Stay
by Phx AZ
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We stayed here for a week and really enjoyed our time. The complex is walking distance to the beach, a few restaurants, a gas station store and beach rental store. It was clean and supplied us with all we needed to enjoy our time there. It is a little dated, but well kept up, clean and comfortable for our time there. The unit is on the ground floor which is nice for luggage and carrying in things from the beach. However, the upstairs neighbors could be heard walking/using the restroom/etc. They weren't loud, but it is just very thin floors I think. We would stay there again.

Great Unit, Great Location!
by Arlington Heights IL
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We loved our 3 week stay in this unit! It was comfortable and had everything we needed. The beach access is so convenient- we could be on the beach in just a few minutes. The kitchen was well-equipped and all appliances worked great. The bed was very comfortable. We loved sitting on the patio each morning for coffee and again in the evening. Great communication with the company. Highly recommended!

Beachwood Villas 8E
by Tallahassee FL
★★★☆☆ 3 of 5
Parking: spaces were always available. There is no decals used for tenants nor are there dedicated spots so you may lose one to someone illegally parked.
Doors/Security: keypad entry on door was great- not having to go to a central office saved time. Patio door locked and also had pole to prevent opening.
Cleanliness: Dirt, small bits of food and hair was found on floor in kitchen when we checked in. Grill pan was very dirty and required cleaning before use.
Bathroom: door doesn’t fully open due to wood swell at bottom which made it hard to walk in-and-out. No exhaust fan but window available.
Kitchen: cooking equipment old. Fry pan handle fell off during use. No vent to exhaust cooking smells. Plates and bowls clean. Forge large and ice maker worked.
Bed: comfortable double with 4 pillows
TV/Internet: TVs small but worked fine. Internet speed o.k.
Noise: This unit is a bottom apartment so if you have a noisy family above you it can be distracting or wake you up early. It’s easy to hear walking upstairs.
Laundry: Not in unit, coin machines available
Toilet paper: one roll provided

Nice unit. Garrett staff was helpful. Can’t give an “excellent” if the toilet doesn’t flush well.

I found the room superb! My stay here was on of great joy and contentment. The city was like a storybook city. I enjoyed the food, the accommodations, the beach, the friendliness of everyone here. I will let many people know of this wonderful, beautiful hidden place of enjoyment, I can't believe it's in the United States. I never knew there were cities and towns like this left. A friendly, family oriented place for bliss. I shall return and tell all my kids and their families to come here.
