Great view
Beautiful view of the Gulf. Condo is immaculate and has lovely furnishings and decor. Kitchen has every cooking item anyone could want. The beach is right down steps and the climb back up the steps is worth it. Quiet complex.

Watch The Fine Ptint
We looked so forward to this vacation. My wife and I have suffered severe illness for the last two years and this was really our first venture out. She has also lost her mother and sister so we needed peace and relaxation. I’m 76, she’s 74. Imagine our surprise when we arrived to find there was no elevator. I’m using a cane and she struggles

The only issue we had was the internet was not working when we arrived. I put in a maintenance ticket, and someone came out quickly and either fixed the issue with the existing router, or replaced it. We had no problems after that. The view of the beach from this unit was fabulous!

Location was wonderful!
Very convenient location. We were able to walk across the street and rent our bikes during our stay. The ride to Seaside was just 10 minutes away. View from the balcony was gorgeous. Condo was very clean. Bed/pillows super comfy. Only negative was having to haul our luggage/stuff up the stairs and maybe that there was not an ice maker. Only two ice trays and they were empty so we had to make ice. Not that big of a deal. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice digs in a nice location
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: It is in a multi building development, some on the beach, consisting of maybe forty units. Ours was on the second floor-ocean front. Everything worked fine and worked. We tried to unlock at exact check in time and it would not, but one quick phone call resolved this. It does sit up on a bluff about 40 feet high and so it is not as close to the beach as some, and the view is partially blocked because of the drop off. This was minimal for ours but for the first floor in this building there would not be a view of the beach. This would be true of all units in this general Sea Grove area. But all in all it was fine and many good restaurants and bars within five minute drive.

Everything you need!
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately 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: My husband and I stayed in The Palms C8 for several nights in January 2022 and found it to be very comfortable and had everything we needed make ourselves at home. The view is amazing and so peaceful. There were a few details that should be addressed. The TV's are so out of date and impossibly small. You would not think this would be an issue at the beach, but we had terrible weather and most of our stay was inside. Go to Costco and get a couple nice tv's for just a few hundred dollars and update them. The internet never worked. The management company was notified but were not able to resolve so we had to toggle onto another unit's internet which proved to be challenging since we were both working while we were staying at the condo and the signal was weak. That issue is always understandable but should not go unresolved for the duration of our stay. They were renovationg the unit above us and the the contractor cut tile all day of and on on his wet saw on the balcony which meant noise, and water dripping down on us from the saw. A day of it, we understand but it lasted throughout our stay which was super annoying and started at 7:30-8:00am each day. There were so many different kinds of chairs on the balcony that we had to move some inside just to get out there. It almost seemed as though it was a catch all for orphaned seating. Put one nice table and 4 chairs out there and be done. The devil is always in the details and with just a few small changes this would be the perfect place to stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a beautiful condo, beautiful furnishings and everything you need. Love the view of the gulf and the proximity to the beach. Wasn’t a fan of where the pool was but it was to cold to use anyway. The downside of this condo if going out to eat you have to drive everywhere and parking in Seaside is expensive.

Amazing location, great stay
I stayed with my 10-year-old twins over spring break. We had an amazing time. The place was impeccably clean, advertised accurately, and the kitchen was stocked probably better than any rental that I've ever had. It is a really beautiful slice of the beach that was not crowded. My *only* small complaint, which has nothing to do with the rental, is that the people who rent chairs were rude. I didn't want to rent chairs (brought my own), and they said that I was setting up my chairs too close to the chairs that they set out at like 7a. It made me feel like I had to get up at 6:30a in the morning to claim space on the beach that was close to the condo for my kids. Otherwise, my kids are already begging to go back to that specific condo. We will be back!!!!

Everything we needed
This condo was the most well stocked rental we have ever visited. We have always wondered why rentals didn't have a coffee maker with a reusable filter basket, but this one did! That's what we use at home so we never have coffee filters. The toiletries, dishwasher tabs, and laundry tabs were a great asset! We cook most of our meals in the condo and this kitchen had anything we needed! The location was amazing. We prefer being able to walk right out in the beach instead if having to cross busy roads to get there. This was perfect. We used the rental credit to get bikes. My family loved being able to ride our bikes to get ice cream or eat in Seaside. This was our first time to this area but we are already looking forward to our next trip here.

The kitchen is gorgeous and has every kitchen item you can imagine, just bring salt/pepper, condiments, and other food items! Great location and convenient to Seaside and other beach towns. We will be back!The WiFi does not always work so I recommend bringing a hotspot or using your phone as a hotspot. Benchmark was quick to respond when we called about the WiFi because it didn’t work at all one day.
