Mostly very enjoyable. However, the wifi needs to be upgraded, so much of the time we had no connection. I realize on vacation you shouldn't be on your devices, but a lot of reservations for activities are via the web.

Jan,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with Benchmark Management. We are so pleased to hear you enjoyed your vacation. With views of the Gulf of Mexico and a private pool, you couldn't ask for a better vacation rental. We do sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced during your stay. Unfortunately, during busier times there is a lot of stress on the networks. We cannot control the strength of the signal and our choice of internet companies in the area is limited. We do sincerely apologize, as we would be happy to improve that if we could have. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope that you will give us another chance to provide you with a great beach vacation.
Sincerely, Benchmark Management

This was a great house that had plenty of room for my friends and I. The location was great as it was within walking distance to the beach. The beach was wonderful and had plenty of space for us to lay out. The pool was a nice to come back to after being at the beach. Will definitely come back again!

White Sand - Santa Rosa Beach, Florida
by Westerville OH
★★★☆☆ 3 of 5
Overall Comment
Overall, White Sand was an ok place because of it’s proximity to the beach. It had an easy access, straight path and short walk to the beach. It had amenities that our families enjoyed - pool, TV with cable in every room, washer/dryer and heated outdoor shower. But our initial reaction wasn’t favorable. The wood floors in the upstairs were dirty, stovetop was dirty and gum was found in the dishes. It was also rather inconvenient that the only way to access the pool from the house was through a bedroom. However, for the price and it’s location, we were able to overlook these issues.

White Sand is the perfect combindation of beach time and pool time. It is an easy walk to the beach-however be aware the public beach area is very small at the base of the stairs-two private beaches on each side. The house has plenty of kitchen amenities and space for everyone!

The pictures don't do justice. This was an amazing property!!! My family and I knew that 90% of our time would be spent at the property because of COVID. Unfortunately, the satellite didn't work our entire stay so no television but we managed to make the best of it. The pool was extremely cold but we made the best of that as well. But a 3-minute walk to the beach made up for EVERYTHING!!!

Hi Leisha!
What an amazing review! We're elated to hear that the photos don't do the home justice in your eyes - nothing beats that! It is a bummer that the satellite service went down during your stay, but that just means more memories by the pool and at the beach! The 3 minute walk makes our White Sand even more great for families. We hope to accommodate you again for a full five star stay next time!

House was perfect for our family. We had a great vacation during the pandemic. We’re able to enjoy the private pool. The house was awesome, space layout was perfect for our family and Benchmark was very responsive to our needs. Only had one issue with need for baking pan. They sent a new one over within one hour. Will certainly will rent from them again.

Relaxing week in the Sand

We loved this house and had a great stay. Located on a quiet rock road. The beach walk entrance is only a few steps away and directly across from Pelayo St. The pool was definitely a perk After a long day at the beach. Lots of room and we loved the view “top of seagrove” from the tower. We did have to contact maintenance and they were very helpful, professional and responded in a timely manner. When renting a golf cart for the week, know that the outside electrical socket trips a lot and the socket to “reboot” is on the back porch. Beautiful pool and loved it but could never find a switch to turn on the pool light at night. The ice maker in the refrigerator is very slow. The air conditioner works great!! We enjoyed our stay and will probably be back to this house.

Great location

Great house for the family. The downstairs bedroom opens up to the pool area so you have to go through that person's bedroom. Nice to have the three bathrooms. The upstairs has an additional AC unit and it is difficult to keep the upstairs bedroom cool without keeping the doors open. The house set up isn't ideal for multiple families. The decoration in the house if very basic. They need to add some pyrex dishes and storage containers to their supply. There are plenty of frying pans though. Enjoy!

Thank you for taking the time to submit your review! We do apologize if you found the refrigerator to be in need of cleaning - we will speak to our cleaning crew about that. We do work diligently to ensure a clean inviting property upon your arrival. Regarding the floors and furniture at White Sand - we do understand that this home could use some updating and we advertise it as is so why choose White Sand? If you are looking for a clean property that is a few steps from the beach and is affordable then this is a great choice for you!! It's all about the beach with this one!! Oh and the pool - when you need a break from the sand you can walk the short distance back home and enjoy your own private pool! So while White Sand could use a little TLC (and it is coming by the way - the owner just put on all new bedding!!) we know that your family could make some great memories here! Call Benchmark today to see how we can help you schedule the vacation of a lifetime!!
