Very Good Unit/Location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, the location and cost of this unit trumps everything. It is very convenient and great for a family of 4 or so. That said, here are few complaints, also noted by others in previous reviews. The locks on two of the four doors don't work. I didn't bother to complain while we were there because I didn't want to deal with it, but make sure you fix those. Most of all, the beds are woefully out of date. The bed downstairs should be a king, and the two queens they do have are very old and sleep like hammocks. The couch is ok, but the rest of the furniture could use updating. Especially the kitchen table and chairs. The kitchen needs more decent breakfast bowls. Not the ****** plastic ones. The fob for the front gate, should you need it, is a very small black oval on the house keys. I don't think this is noted anywhere and caused us an hour of annoyance one night - wondering if would be able to get back in. We didn't have a pool fob or parking pass when we arrived. Information about trash disposal and checking out should be on a sheet in the unit. The free Explorie stuff (golf in particular) is a great deal and add on. Would return.

Great location!

It is a good place at a great location. The reason for 4 starts is that i think that both bedrooms could have king beds, also some of the furniture should be upgraded. Otherwise it had everything we needed for the few days we stayed.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved everything about this rental! The location was absolutely perfect, we could easily walk to Alys or Rosemary for coffee, shopping and dinner. The walk to the beach was just down the sidewalk and around the corner . We loved the house, it was so clean, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. This is our 4th year coming to 30a and we plan on staying here every year from now on. The management company was very quick to respond with any questions. We can’t wait to come back!

Great Location, Unnecessary Issues

This unit is in a fantastic location. You're steps from the beach and easy walking distance from both Rosemary Beach & Alys. You cannot ask for a better spot. Unfortunately the management company kind of ruins it. They send you documents to sign, lots of emails and texts, so you'd think they have it together, but not so much. The instructions they give for accessing the property are incorrect. It is in a gated community and the code they sent didn't work so we had to get a very pleasant security guard to let us into the community. Once you enter the house there is a list of items that should be present & a document showing the price for replacing the items should you lose them. Half the items were missing and the other half were mislabeled (the "pool" fob was actually for the community front gate! and the pool doesn't use a fob, it uses a code which wasn't provided). Most importantly the supposed parking pass was missing and we yet again had to beg the security guard for help. We had to spend time on hold with the management company about parking and all the missing items. When we were attempting to check-out the instructions provided weren't correct so we had to call and wait on hold for the management company again to provide proper instructions. One of the downstairs patio doors wouldn't lock and all they would tell us "leave at your own risk". Fortunately they did fix it, but there was lots of unnecessary stress. I'd stay in the area again but with a different company.

Great stay

Everything was great, you can’t beat the location to the beach and restaurants. I don’t understand why Rosemary beach doesn’t use recycle beans and it was an awful feeling to put all the plastic in the regular bin, hope the owners can make the difference in the community.

Great Location but could use some updates

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I cannot say enough good things about the location in terms of safety, close to the beach and restaurants, and in a great community. Highly recommend if this is your priority.However - The unit could use some updating and not in terms of décor but functionality. The beds are not comfortable and the upstairs bed kept falling off the frame, the washing machine barely works (it runs but the clothes aren't really getting "clean") the kids room with bunk beds has a door to the balcony with no child lock on it - this was concerning being I have a 4 year old. I was aware the TV's were small based on previous reviewers but it seems sub-par in 2022 to not have Smart TV's with Netflix...etc. The kitchen supplies were lacking - no frying pan and limited pots and pans. We’ve been staying in this specific location the past 6 years in a row and have never had a unit come without beach toys/gear for our use. I know it’s not to be expected – it just seems like a simple amenity given it’s a beach cottage.As far as the management company goes I will say they were easy to get a hold of. We we’re instructed upon arrival that there was a pool key and a swipe card to obtain and it turns out the pool “key” doubles as the swipe cards for this community. Would have been nice to know so we didn’t have to stop by security to open the gate the first two days of our stay. The check-in instructions also mention a door code which was not applicable to our unit? Seems like simple updates to the check-in instructions would fix and confusion for future guests here.Overall the price was fair but comparing to the other 5 units in the same complex I have stayed at I would probably not stay here again.

Great location!

We had a wonderful stay and the property had a great layout and perfect location for our family. You are just steps away from the pool and beach and close enough to all of the restaurants and shops, but far enough away to hear the noise at night. We had a wonderful time and would definitely return. The only downsides was that there was no king size bed and the house is a bit dated. But overall it was great!

Our Suncation

We loved the location of this property. It is easily within walking/biking distance to Alys, Seacrest, and Rosemary town centers. Once we parked our car we only had to get it out once for the grocery. Our only disappointment was the inadequate beach space. While there is a private beach, it is blocked in on either side by cones and monitors. Half of the beach space is taken up by a private contractor which left little room. The first two days we had to put our chairs in the water. We love a crowd but this was too much! We would stay here again but not in a busy season because of the beach atmosphere.

My experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Upon arrival, the unit was not properly cleaned, floors had sand throughout the house and pots and pans had cooking oil and food particles left on it, kitchen items were scattered throughout the kitchen cabinets, front door needs maintenance, landscaping needs trimming, beach chairs (one was broken) and the others were not what is listed by owner in description, and lots of light bulbs need replacing. The furniture and mattresses need updating, stains on bedding.

Great location, a few criticisms

You could not ask for a better location than this. Very easy walk to pool, beach, shopping, bars, restaurants, etc... Three small critiques of the property....the front door lock did not work which was a little scary when we went to sleep at night (but the gated neighborhood is about as safe as you can get). Also, the TVs in the unit are comically small. Like, barely bigger than an ipad small. Remember that 1st batch of flat screen TVs back in the late 90s.....these are those TVs. Our kids got a big laugh from that. But, who comes to the beach to watch TV...go outside, hit the beach. The beach was more crowded than we are used to, but it was fine.

Fantastic location

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. 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: The location is wonderful - so close to the beach and yet still close enough to walk Seacrest & Rosemary beach for restaurants etc.The check in information sent via email was outdated in terms of lacking clear directions on how to find the property, how to collect the security pass to get your car past the security gate, where to find the lock box for the door key and the fact the pool access is no longer a code and you need the key fob from inside the property. All pretty frustrating after a 6 hour drive with 2 kids who were desperate to get out of the car and go for a swim.Once we were finally situated, no complaints at all regarding the property itself. Very clean, quiet and superb location.The beach chairs are very old and so are the boogie boards. We ended up renting chairs on the beach mainly due to the fact the open area on the beach is very limited and we were trying to social distance.Would rent again but strongly recommend the emailed instructions are updated.

Two Complaints

Great location!! Only two complaints...bed in master needs to be a king. My husband is 6’5” and had a difficult time in the bed. Also the house across from us had workers there and they parked their work trucks in front of our place. Every time we left or came back, we ‘d have to get them to move their vehicles so we could get in.

Beach getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Check-in was easy. Great location in gated neighborhood, steps from the beach, and easily walkable to Rosemary. Very functional house, decently outfitted kitchen (several different, unmatched wine glasses, for example), really enjoyed the week there and liked the price-to-value ratio. Master BR bed and pillows were just ok, and TVs are very small in each room (not there to watch TV, but still). Nice bonus touch from Benchmark was the complimentary beach gear rental credit, and cheaper to rent direct than through VRBO, etc.
