Beautiful home in Rosemary

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: This home is absolutely beautiful. It worked perfectly for a long weekend with girl friends. The amenities in the neighborhood were lovely, and it was walking distance to the beach as well as great restaurants and coffee shops. The only downside was that it was ill equipped with basic necessities. We had to purchase more toilet paper, more trash bags, more dish soap. For the price we were paying to stay here, I wouldn't expect to show up on day one and already be out of or low on these items. They are also very strict on check in. Despite cleaning being finished, there was absolutely no flexibility to come any earlier than the exact time of check in.
Response from VrboOwner on 24 May 2026
Thank you for your feedback! We are so glad to hear you enjoyed the home, the neighborhood amenities, and the convenient location near the beach, restaurants, and coffee shops. It sounds like it was a great fit for your girls’ getaway. We also appreciate your comments regarding the starter supplies provided. We do stock the home with an initial set of essentials for guest arrival, but we understand expectations can vary depending on group size and length of stay, and we will certainly share your feedback with our team for review. Regarding check-in, while we do offer early check-in whenever possible, it is unfortunately never guaranteed as it depends heavily on the cleaning and inspection schedule for the day. Guests are typically notified if the home is ready before 4 PM; however, this particular rental is usually not ready until the standard check-in time. Even once cleaning is completed, the home must still go through a final inspection to ensure everything is properly prepared for arrival. We truly appreciate you staying with us and hope to host you again in the future! Warm Regards, Benchmark Management

Wonderful family vacation!

This was our first time vacationing on 30A...and we all absolutely loved it! Everything was perfect ~ the home is gorgeous, and the shuttle to and from the beach access was very convenient. We had perfect weather every day. Everything was so convenient to get to ~ the grocery store is just about 2 miles away...so many great restaurants nearby, shopping, ice cream shops for the kids. We rented bikes and boogie boards for the kids and it was all dropped off at the house and then picked up the day we checked out. And the chair and umbrella rental on the beach was so convenient! All questions we asked from the property management were answered immediately ~ Great vacation!

Weekend Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, we had a great stay. We had trouble with the dead bolt a couple times on both the front and back doors. Also, when we checked in the couch was soaking wet. We couldn’t use it for most of the weekend because it was drying, that was a bummer. We really hoped to check in early and were told we could when cleaning was done. Cleaning was completed and we called for an early check in and were told no, they had to come inspect it still. We sat at the house waiting for check in and no one ever came to inspect it which was frustrating.
Response from VrboOwner on 27 Aug 2025
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and w are glad to hear you had a great stay overall. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with the couch and the deadbolt. Your comments have been shared with our team to ensure these items are addressed. Regarding early check-in, we do offer this option when possible, but it is not guaranteed as each property must be fully cleaned and inspected prior to guest arrival. While a property might appear ready from the outside, there are sometimes a few touch-ups or final inspections that need to be completed before check-in. Should the property be ready prior to 4 PM, guests are always notified. That said, we recommend planning for the standard check-in time of 4 PM to avoid any unexpected delays. We appreciate your understanding and your feedback, as it helps us continue to improve the guest experience. Warm Regards

Overall Experience

House and Beach were incredible! Beach management personnel named Stacy was difficult to communicate with. She gave us mixed messages on check in times and I never received any kind of follow up email or message after registering for wristbands, so having never been to this area, we had no idea where to go to check in. After a very long day of travel and finishing the check in process, our stay was beyond fabulous!

Hi Kristen, thanks for staying with us and for taking the time to submit this review. We truly appreciate your feedback. We are truly sorry that you did not have a smooth check-in process. This property does not allow early check-in; however our system had sent the early check-in automated text in error. We truly apologize for the mis communication. We have taken the necessary steps to ensure that this does not happen for future stays. We are happy to hear that despite the challenge at check-in time that you had a wonderful stay. In regards to the wristbands and passes, we had sent the link for registration as well as information regarding where to pick up on September 20 and 27. This was in the guidebook. The book had the link as well as a map indicating pick-up station. You could have also reached out to us directly and we would happily assist. We hope that we can welcome you another time for a fabulous vacation experience. Regards, Benchmark Management

Poor Response to items not working at property

When we first arrived we reported a fan was not working and they never let us know where the remote was to use it. Smoke detector had been removed and they didn’t re-install until half way through the week. Stove hood wouldn’t work, so we couldn’t cook on the stove. We were told the owners said the stove was fine. Without hood, there was an overwhelming smell of gas when stove and oven were turned on…After we received that message regarding the owners saying nothing needing to be fixed we tried to cook on the stove and the smoke detector went off…...we reported it yet again and no one was sent to fix it until the night before we left. We had to throw out all of the food we bought since the stove/oven couldn’t be used. On top of that, it was really hard to get in touch with anyone and when we did, they weren’t very helpful. It was honestly the worst experience I’ve ever had with a rental. The one positive thing to this place is that it is beautifully decorated. Outside of that, I would not recommend this place.

Hi Misty, Thank you for bringing your family to stay with us at beautiful Maison de Joie. We are incredibly sorry to hear that we let you down during your vacation. Guest safety and satisfaction is our top priority, which is why we had a local gas company as well as an appliance vendor come to assess the kitchen ventilation system and the stove. Our maintenance team went out behind them to ensure we know how to properly assist our guests should a concern like this ever arise in the future at any of our properties. We did take multiple calls and respond to your text messages, as we do not leave any messages unanswered before we leave each day. Your vacation truly is our passion, and we are dejected that this was your experience with us. We surely hope the opportunity arises for us to truly offer you the relaxing stay you expected upon booking with us. Sincerely, Benchmark Management
