We enjoyed our stay. Only thing I might say is the bunk room seemed a bit warmer than the other bedroom when the fan was on. Otherwise, everything was great!

Beautiful Vacation Rental
We were very pleased with our stay! It was just like the pictures showed and we loved the location. The pool is right outside and the beach is about a 5 minute walk. We love that area and will be back! Thank you for helping us make such great memories.

We went over Memorial Day weekend, but where we were didn’t feel crowded at all. We made such wonderful memories. Benchmark Management was wonderful to work with. They reached out to us throughout the week to check on us. We definitely plan to return, and highly recommend staying at Beach Therapy!

Weekend Stay at the Cottages
Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: The house was clean upon arrival and easy to find. Benchmark is over the top with communication. I found the notebook in the house very helpful. My only complaint is there are no curtains in the bedrooms making it very hard to fall asleep and stay asleep. The master bedroom and bunk rooms both have windows that face the pool where bright lights are left on all night. Other than not sleeping at all, the house served our needs for two nights.

Perfect in every way!
Beach Therapy is perfectly appointed and very clean. The pool was cold but otherwise beautiful. We never used the hot tub so can’t speak to that. The neighbors are very friendly and kind . The location was easy driving to Rosemary Beach, The Hub and Seaside. Would love to visit again and highly recommend it!!

Girls Trip - May 2023
We had an amazing time in 30A! The pool was steps away from our back porch and the beach was just a short walk away. The cottage came with a wagon that made hauling our cooler and bags to the beach easy. The beach was beautiful and not busy at all. The property was clean and had everything we needed. Our only complaint was that the dinning room chairs could use some cushions, they were not comfortable to sit in.

Perfect set up for kids

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house being right off the pool was amazing for the kids. We never had to pack everything up to go to the pool. The grill is right next to the pool as well which made for easy lunches. Walk to the beach was about 4 minutes and easy to do. Our only complaint was how the kitchen wasn’t very stocked and the Wi-Fi would sporadically stop working. Besides that it was the perfect space and nicely decorated!

Sweet Spot
We really enjoyed our month here. We brought our 17 year old dog with us. It is a dog friendly neighborhood that even provides a poop bag station. The cottage was very comfortable and had everything we needed to cook including a grill. We were pleased to find the TV included Netflix and other streaming stations. The walk to the beach was simple and the sand and surf were just what we needed. We went out to eat often. We’d recommend The Donut Hole, and Backbeach Barbecue for good simple food. We enjoyed a trip to the zoo in Panama City. We splurged and got to hold a baby kangaroo named Sandy. I definitely recommend this sweet cottage.

Upon arrival, the house was ready for us right at 4:00, and was immaculately clean. We quickly settled in and made our way to the PRIVATE beach, which is an easy +/- 4 minute walk!! Our son enjoyed the pool (a little too cold for us parents), and our dog enjoyed long afternoons on the porch laying under the fan.The kitchen had everything we needed to make us feel right at home.We've already booked our return trip and can't wait to get back to the gorgeous 30A!!

Great spot to unwind!
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Beach Therapy is a great unit that is convenient to the pool, which was perfect for our kids. The grill was great for nightly cooking and the kitchen is well stocked. The bunk beds were amazingly comfortable. The only suggestions we have are: the living area is cramped with furnishings,and the sofa is uncomfortable/stained and needs replacing. The master bedroom needs either a new, more sturdy bed frame or the current one needs tightened, as each time my husband moved in the night, it made loud noises. Thank you for having the beach wagon and all the beach/pool toys. That was a great hit for our kids. All in all, a great stay.

Great little cottage
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 had an extended stay of 4 weeks in Feb, and we just love this complex. It's perfect for a couple, and perhaps a guest or two - a couple kids would be just fine - but not much more. The living room was very comfortable, but it's not large. Master bedroom king sized bed was very comfortable. A couple beach chairs would be a great addition. The cottage has lots of hooks to hang jackets and towels which is greatly appreciated. We had a quick response from a Benchmark when the icemaker quit working - even on a Saturday. The tv had a few issues which we think had to do with the router. Some instructions on how to reboot the router would also be a nice addition to the property instructions. Overall, we just truly enjoyed our cottage by the pool and had everything we wanted. Thank you!
