Private trumps public
This place is more than the pictures show. You can smell the subtle hint of the cleanliness thru the bleach smell and not the fake Febreeze masking cleaner as soon as you open the door. Our nose told us it was clean as our eyes were amazed at how beautiful the property is. The view of the ocean coupled with the silence and lack of "public" access really made it the most relaxing experience. My wife and I love it!

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: Great condo with unbelievable beach view. Kids loved the beach but having the pool was great too. Benchmark Management made the process so easy. Would definitely recommend and will stay here again. The only thing I would note is that the toaster didn't work and it is about time for a new blender, other than than that everything was perfect.

The Condo is very clean and we love this area because the beach is not crowded like other areas. This area is great to just decompress at the beach and now there is a Publix 5 minutes away to make grabbing groceries easy. Absolutely would stay here again.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The beach was fabulous and enjoyed the condo. Was beyond frustrated that we got a text message the day before we left that the oven wasn’t working. We had already cooked meals and bought meals to cook while thee instead of eating out. Couldn’t use the meals and had to spend tons of money eating out.

July 4th trip
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 recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice unit overlooking the gulf. There is a welcomed shade by the patio table allowing guests to enjoy plenty of time on the balcony. We were there and the kitchen oven was not working so a smaller, Oster oven was provided taking up valuable counter space in the smallish kitchen. The couches in the living room were not as comfortable as we would liked, but were fine. Finally, the shower in the master bath is extremely small and cramped, so it was not easy for a 6 ft tall individual to use. Other than those issues, we enjoyed our time at Monterey unit A201.

One person in our group had to work online during the week and found it very frustrating to conduct business online. Also only one of the tv’s worked. Would like this condo to have more than seven forks and one wine glass.

Reviewer Comments: Loved location of condo. Condo was updated and very nice overall. Living Room furniture very uncomfortable. Laundry room door would not close because of washing machine. Unit clean and maintained well. Bedrooms were comfortable. We rented this place because it was gated. Gates were open all but two days we were there. Pool gates also open. Did not like that. We are from Vestavia, Al.

Our stay was 10/22 - 10/31, unfortunately high winds really stirred up red tide, warned to stay off the beach = people were wearing masks and it wasn’t because of Covid. Explore the area it is wonderful, gets bikes with your points!!! 2 chair beach service is provided by the owners = huge plus. I would absolutely rent again!!

Rusty porch furniture falling apart
Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. 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: We rented 2 condos for a family vacation. Although our condo was the same price as the other, ours was very inferior in view and furnishings. The porch furniture was rusty and falling apart onto the floor. When I called they said there is nothing they can do about it and the owner was unwilling to do anything. The furnishings felt cold and not thoughtful. There are large trees and bushes in the view and there is only a side view of the ocean. I would recommend 3rd floor and not this condo.

Monterey A201
Location is outstanding! The overall complex has some age, so the floor plan and built-in furnishings (cabinets, kitchens, bathrooms) are dated. The bedrooms are spacious. The den area and the bathrooms, however, are not. A smart TV would be a nice addition. As well, an upgrade with the bedding (especially the sheets) would be a welcome addition. One item needing immediate attention is the chairs (4) around the table on the deck. They are a rusty mess and need to be replaced. Again, Monterey has a great location. The complex has a nice size pool. The beach itself is wide. Overall, I would give this condo (A201) a B- grade. Our party of 4 adults greatly enjoyed our visit.

Family Vacation
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: We rented this property over Mother's Day weekend for a short stay with our two children and my sister. We found the property in great condition, very clean, and well appointed to suit our needs. The extra toys in the closet came in handy after our 18 month old grew bored with the few things we had brought. This property has a great location if you are wanting to be near Rosemary and Alys but avoid the crowded beaches. It was very quiet and we had plenty of room to play on the beach. The beach service doesn't take up the whole beach here like they do at some other properties, which was nice as we had our own space to set up our umbrellas and chairs. The heated pool was wonderful for our kids as the ocean water was still quite chilly. The location of this condo puts you about 1.5 miles from Rosemary and 1.5 miles from The Hub. This gave us easy bicycle access to plenty of restaurants and shops. We would likely stay at this property again.

Terrible WiFi
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: Great location and modest condo that suited our needs. However the WiFi was horrible. We did complain to the rental company and they said it was normal when the beach was crowded. However, our neighbors were not having problems with their WiFi. I am not sure the type of internet service 201A is using but it should be upgraded. You can’t offer streaming on your tv if you aren’t paying for high speed internet. Don’t rent this condo if you plan to do any work for you will leave extremely frustrated.
