About this property

30A Stay with Pool, Golf Cart & Beach Access + Free Dolphin Cruise!

Nestled within the charming community of Cottages at Eastern Lake, this 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom home offers a relaxing retreat while keeping you close to everything 30A has to offer. Accommodating up to 12 guests, it's located in a quiet cul-de-sac just steps from the boardwalk leading to the resort-style community pool. Whether you're unwinding by the water or heading out to explore, this home provides the perfect blend of comfort and convenience.

Inside, natural light fills the open living space, where cozy sofas and wing chairs create an inviting spot for movie nights or catching up with loved ones. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need for home-cooked meals, including a coffee maker, Keurig, microwave, and a refrigerator with an ice maker.

Horrible Experience

My wife and checked into the home on Thursday 5/15 at 4:00pm and were shocked to see a new home being built within 20 feet of the home we rented. Jackhammers, hammering, Spanish workers yelling back and forth. This ended around 6:00pm. The next morning at 8 we were awaked by the construction noise. At that time I Contacted Benchmark. Asking them why I was not advised of this being in a construction area. They responded "we're really sorry... but we often only learn about nearby contruction after it begins." This construction has been going on for at least 60 days - so this is complete BS. I was told they would submit a request for a refund to their team. The team responded citing "line 22 of our rental" policy that they cannot be held responsible for construction. Benchmark has an obligation to at least advise renters of contruction. Benchmark is very unprofessional and I would advise never to rent from this host.

Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Mislead and disappointed stay. We picked The Cupcake unit because of peaceful porches and cultasack. We did not know construction was going on next door and concrete trucks. Sent daily pics to Benchmark with no response. I understand construction but we paid full $. Don't use Benchmark! Kept hear management was to call. Not
