Beachcrest Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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: Beachcrest is a great condo for location. The only issue this time was I reported a maintenance issue and it was never fixed. I checked in with management about the issue and was told it would be fixed that day (Monday) and that they would keep us updated. We left Thursday with the problem never fixed and I never received another text from management.
Response from VrboOwner on 19 May 2026
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are glad you continue to enjoy the great location at Beachcrest, though we are sorry to hear about your concern regarding the maintenance issue during your stay. Our records show that a maintenance technician did enter the unit on the 11th with permission and addressed the reported issue at that time. We do apologize that we did not provide a follow-up update afterward, as that is certainly something we aim to improve on. Had the issue persisted after the repair, we would have been happy to send the technician back out if we had been notified, as we want to ensure everything is fully resolved during our guests’ stays. We appreciate your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to host you again for a smoother experience in the future. Warm Regards, Benchmark Management

The condo was clean except for the stove and Benchmark management was very attentive to our needs. The fixtures are a bit outdated in the condo but adequate. The view from the deck is a perfect ocean view! We did not use the pool, but it appeared clean. We did appreciate the bathrooms available in the pool area. Be aware there are a lot of steep steps to get to the beach area. Thankfully, we weren’t traveling with anyone who was not able to navigate the steps.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was in a great location and was nicely decorated with most of the amenities you need on vacation. The added beach chairs and umbrella was a nice and unexpected extra. There were a few repairs that were needed and the washing machine was a little small considering we had several beach towels to wash along with the usual clothes. A better mattress in the master would be a nice touch but overall, everything checked all of the boxes.

It was ALMOST what we wanted

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 do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location, great beach front, condo old, but nice. Couch had spots on it. Masterbed room mattress was uncomfortable. In fact, we left the night before our next morning checkout, because we both wanted a better night sleep. Found multiple items in the kitchen cabinets (utensils and pots dirty. One was so dirty that I could not understand how anyone would put something that greasy and full of food grime back in the drawer). Therefore, we washed everything before we used it. Layout of the condo was great. Loved that it was a corner unit on the third floor, making the balcony high enough to get a good view of the beach. If these other issues are fixed, we would rent this condo again.
