Industry-Leading Home Care
We do Emerald Coast luxury vacation rental management the right way. This includes using local, trusted maintenance and housekeeping teams that work at the highest level 24/7. Our goal is to provide you with the total peace of mind and to deliver your guests the most enjoyable experience.
Reliable In-House Maintenance
With us, you get a fast, professional maintenance team assigned to you to handle every maintenance request whether it's big or small. This ensures your property is treated with priority, stays polished, and runs smoothly nonstop.
Thorough Housekeeping
Using an in-depth checklist every time, our cleaning team cares of your home as if it were their own. On top of that, we never allow check-ins until a Benchmark team member has seen and approved the work.
Meticulous Inspections
Our inspectors check your home for issues after each departure, as well as once a month for extra quality control. In the offseason, we do a thorough inventory check. This, in combination with guest feedback, allows us to update your home's description and to present you with any items needed.
Personalized Partnerships
Like you, we value responsiveness and consistency in a partnership. That's just what we offer every day to keep our owner relationships strong.
Transparent Owner Portal
Stay connected with your property through our online owner portal. Here you can view your statements, year-to-date income, and open maintenance requests. You can even use it to book your own stays.
Unlimited Owner Use
Enjoy your vacation home as much as you'd like! As the property owner, you'll have full control and access to your property's calendar. We'll even clean the home, and have it ready for you before you arrive.
Dedicated Owner Service Agent
Your Dedicated Owner Service Agent at Benchmark serves as your direct link, embodying communication, protection, and proactive problem-solving.

We automate every touchpoint to make things as easy as possible for your guests. This includes a pre-arrival email, text and email check-ins during their stay, and post-departure communication to leave a review.
Thorough Guest Screenings
Only qualified guests get to enjoy your home. Our policies require that all guests are over 25 years of age, and that every 4 guests under age 25 have at least one guardian with them from check-in to the end of their stay. We don't allow partying or underage drinking, and we may require a Spring Break Rental Policy when applicable.
Local Support
Along with 24/7 customer services support from our local team, your guests can have peace of mind with live response times from local guest relations agents.
