Gulf-Front, Pool, Stunning Gulf Views, Beach Setup + Free Attraction Tickets!

We loved our stay! The house was clean, they checked in on us multiple times during our stay, and the location is perfect! We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great location, the house was clean and good amenities. Great views from the patio and balcony. Only thing is we would have expected it to have more supplies, for example we had to buy our own garbage bags and paper towel, and there were no beach towels.

The property is beautiful and well maintained, and the company is proactive and highly responsive to communications if/when questions come up. Highly recommended!!

Pros:The house is right on the beach with truly stunning views. The layout is fantastic for multiple families — very spacious and well-designed. The master suite is upstairs, and there are two bedrooms downstairs, each with their own bathrooms, plus a second kitchen, living area, and double washer/dryer. On the main level, there are two full bathrooms, one bedroom, and a bunk room. The space was a major highlight and made the stay comfortable for a large group.Cons:Check-in was difficult — the door code did not work, and customer service was rude and unhelpful. Unfortunately, the house is in poor condition. The floors are coming up, paint is chipped, furniture is damaged, and everything feels worn and neglected. The kitchen had no basic spices at all, which was surprising for a rental of this size. The pool also needs repairs, and overall, the property was not clean upon arrival.With some updates and better customer service, this could be an incredible rental. The location is unbeatable, but the home needs significant attention.

Location was great and convenient to everything. Pool was dirty after day 1 due to a storm that rolled through but the management company had it cleaned for us earlier than the scheduled cleaning date which was much appreciated. There is a public beach access directly next to the house which caused the beach area to be busier than we would have liked. First impressions house was clean, but after we settled we noticed several areas that need attention. The house is not maintained very well regarding cosmetic repairs that need done. And repairs that have been made are not up to par. Based on the cost to rent the house and the higher end area it is in, we were disappointed in what we got. The location on 30A and the management company, Benchmark, were two positives. We enjoyed our vacation but would have appreciated a better maintained rental.

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: House was everything we wanted and more! Plenty of room, excellent location, Pool & Beach were great! Will definitely stay here again.

Check in was very easy. The house was perfect for our family of 8. The kitchen was very well appointed. The bedrooms were all comfortable, and the views from the decks were spectacular. The location was ideal. We were close to great restaurants and the Publix was only a few minutes away. The beach was not crowded and having the chair service was a real bonus. The management company was very responsive when we had an issue with the air conditioner and sent someone right away. The only negative would be the number is stairs to the beach for anyone with mobility issues. The walking/biking path is directly in front of the house. A great place!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location was great and is the main reason to pick this property. For the price per week being charged, the house is in need of repairs - there are flooring tiles missing, the trash drawers are falling off, curtains are missing, and the 3rd floor Steam Shower smells like mold covered in bleach. The 2 dryer vents are tied together so if both are running it stops the second one due to air flow fault. The beds were hard and sheets were scratchy. The pool was a dirty mess, though they did come on Wednesday to clean it.Again, the reason to stay here is the convenient access to the beach.

It was a perfect home for our family to enjoy a vacation. Loved being so close to Alys Beach !

The house is in a great location, right in the beach with chairs and umbrellas included. The house itself was adequate - it’s definitely a rental property with some wear and tear, but nothing that would prevent us from coming back again to the same house.

Great house on beach, update amenities, blender, high chair, booster seat, pack and play

We loved the location. It is really 3 semi-private levels. 2 kitchens and decks off of each level were a bonus.It’s worth the cost of heating the pool for marginal spring days. And, the convenience of our own beach access plus beach chairs and umbrellas included and automatically set up were great.

Pool heater was never turned on and no response as to why. AC problems we investigated and fixed on our own when we got no calls back to help. (For whatever reasons breakers were turned off) . Basically not the same customer service we have had in the past. Pool cleaning guy came mid day and then told us we have to stay out for a couple hours, and just threw his hands up when we asked about the heater...as in not my problem.

We have attached several pictures. While the interior was very nice and clean, the outside really needs some work. The paint is very weathered and many rusted areas. Including the outdoor light fixtures. The grill was not clean and we did not feel comfortable using it. Our master bedroom has mold/mildew on the walls by the tv and we experienced difficulty breathing. The toilet paper holder is about to fall off the wall. The shower was also moldy in many grout areas. The ants on the pool deck were everywhere. There is also a large wasp nest under the 2nd floor deck.The house is nice on the inside but the outside was very disappointing. The beach access and chairs were great.Sincerely,Lisa Malladyimage0.jpegimage1.jpegimage2.jpegimage3.jpegimage4.jpegSent from my iPhone

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We checked out of the Mirage last weekend (name of the property with Benchmark). We have some major complaints that I wanted to bring out relative to a $10,000+ dollar rental for 4 nights that I would have wanted to know and want others to know before they book a stay at this property. We had to go purchase things that have been standard at other rentals of this caliber in the past:Gym access wasn’t accurate and was listed on the property.No hand soap for washing - had to go purchase.Only 1 bath towel per person - hard to take showers after the beach with a wet towel.1 trash bags for the kitchen trash - had to go buy trash bags.No simple cooking items (cooking spray, salt / pepper, etc...) - another purchase.Only 2 dishwasher tablets for 4 nights. The trash in front of the house was never picked up during our time there. just be aware.Etc...I could go on, but staying here required bringing all household goods to a house we paid a lot to stay in. These all are simple items to provide...I hope this feedback is beneficial. if you are Uber bound this all becomes very expensive to go to the store for basics of your stay.
