Owner Testimonial

"My husband and I partnered with Benchmark Management in October of 2024 for them to handle the rental/management of our condo in Santa Rosa Beach. We bought the property in January of 2022 and had been floundering in regards to rentals/bookings. From our first initial contact with Benchmark to date, we have been very happy and impressed with level of communication, customer service and attention to detail they have provided, which has been excellent! There is a genuine dedication reflected in the guidance they provide, which is also demonstrated in our rentals/bookings being up considerably, along with great guest feedback!"
