Great condo. Clean and very comfortable. A little bit too far from the beach (espy since the beach parking lot has room for 10-12 cars) the walk was not too terrible for us but not ideal for families with small children

Mother-Daughter Getaway

We had a lovely time in our favorite neighborhood. This is the third time we have chosen this complex and it's for good reason. So convenient to everything. This unit has the most comfortable beds and pillows. Very straight forward (nothing superfluous) and easy to settle-in to. There is very little privacy in this unit because of it's location & my only negative is that no coffee was provided. I would have loved to have had at least 1 or 2 to start our first morning after our late arrival the previous day.

Great condo!

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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 condo was perfect for our family. The pool was quiet and just steps away from the back door. It was a great location and the complex was great. The only complaint we had was that the windows did not have curtains up and the front bedroom was very bright first thing in the morning. It was clean and freshly updated. The kitchen was well stocked and close to the Walton Dunes Beach Access.

Good find!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. 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: This is a great place, very affordable and in a very good location. The management company was beyond great, especially that we had a more delicate situation where our previous accommodation didn't work and we needed to find something urgently, they were very helpful. My only concern about this unit was the pretty soiled carpet from the bedrooms and the area rug in the living room, other than that very nice place with very comfy beds.Thank you!

WiFi was not working (because they had the wrong login information).The kitchen was insufficiently equipped, lacking basic items such as: A pot suitable for boiling water (e.g., for pasta), Kitchen towels. A colander, Potholders. Had to use a bath towel as a pot holder - no hand towels or washclothes in bathrooms.The listing advertised bike rentals, which were not available.Additionally, the property manager was slow to respond to concerns - sometimes didn't reply at all. This property is not as advertised. Benchmark Management is awful!!!

Spring getaway

The condo at Heron's Watch worked for our party of three. We wanted to get away from Ohio and love the 30A area. My husband and I worked remote during the two weeks we stayed We took many1/2 days of vacation plus with the time difference we were off work by 3:30pm., so we had plenty of time to do the things we wanted to do. We visited Seaside, Rosemary Beach, 30A Farmer's Market in Rosemary Beach, Grayton Beach, The Hub, Grand Boulevard and of course the beautiful beaches. For beach days, we utilized the Santa Clara Regional Beach access. It was about 6 minutes from the condo and had parking and restrooms. The pros about the place; nice furnishings, quiet complex, easy check-in/check-out process, and great location. Some suggestions: the carpets in the bedrooms and rug in the living area needs cleaned. Both are very dirty. Also, one of the reasons we book a place with a kitchen is to use it, so please leave some space in the cabinets for grocery items since there is no pantry. We had to rearrange things in the cabinets to make room. Plus, there are way too many cups/glasses and bowls. I think we counted at least 80 cups/glasses and more bowls than necessary. All in all the place worked for us. The condo complex is next to the Old Florida Fish House which has an amazing atmosphere and food. We walked to dinner three times. You can also walk to a coffee house and a place to get ice cream (even though the Blue Mountain Creamery is better). We visited the Shops of Grayton and discovered the Black Bear Bread Co. The pastries were amazing. We went back several times and tried several different things. Also we saw a real black bear one night on our way back from the Perfect Pig in Gulf Place. We were not expecting to come to the beach and see a bear.

Last minute vacation before back to school

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was very clean and very functional with lots of storage for items. We liked having the pool right outside our room. Overall, it was great. Things to keep in mind... The beach is a pretty long walk away with parts not having a sidewalk. With children, this was something that played a factor for us. We had a wagon to pull our beach stuff with. The other thing was dealing with people above that you could hear all their rustling and footsteps/kids running. If you want to shop and get parking, it was a bit of a chore. The local areas near the beach charged for parking and there were a lot of people. One day we drove to Panama city and there is much more shopping opportunities there. We went to Destin twice to do activities there and eat. We have stayed at a lot of different places along this area of the gulf and this was the clearest water we have ever seen. We seen lots of stingrays in the morning and dodged jellyfish in the afternoon. Overall, it was a great time, but in the future since we have kids we would probably stay closer to more activities.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Nice condo, right next to the pool. Appears to be newly renovated. Well-stocked kitchen, and the furniture and beds were really comfy. Location is quiet and feels secluded but it is quite a walk to the beach, so bikes or cart would be preferred. Management company is hard to get hold of if you happen to have any issues. I had some small ones and they were non-responsive. Not a deal breaker as the issues were small, but still...
