Everything about this property was as advertised or better. It was beautiful, very well furnished with great beds and furniture, and as easy to the beach as any property we've stayed in.
Clean, spacious condo with amazing views. Easy direct access to the best beach in America, and a convenient location to walk into town (Seaside) for dinner. We booked this because it was directly overlooking the ocean, and the views did not disappoint. Onsite parking was easy. Living room tv is huge and each bedroom also had its own tv. We had issues with the wifi on the first night, but it was due to a local outage and not the property’s fault. Communication with the property management company went very smoothly over the phone and via text. Would stay here again for sure!
This has been our favorite condo that we have stayed in on 30A. The elevator made arrival extremely easy. The view was amazing. I was able to keep track of both of my teenage kids if they went down to the beach from our balcony view. The property manager responded promptly to any questions or requests. Unlike a lot of units, the best part was the furniture and BEDS were actually comfortable. I have stayed in many VRBO's with horrible mattresses and it can ruin a trip. These were great. Will use this unit again.

Amazing as always with great access to downtown Seaside, quiet condo complex, and great amenities.
Absolutely loved the location and condo! Beautiful and my girlfriends and I truly enjoyed our time there. A lot of great restaurants to pick from and the beach was phenomenal. Very thankful we had access to chairs & umbrellas. We will be back! 💗
Everything was great. Only minor complaint is that Benchmark could have been more helpful when we inquired about where to park a golf cart. They knew that the complex was less than 1/2 occupied & there were plenty of open parking places plus guest spots. Instead they told us to park on street or pay at a facility.

This is the ideal rental for Seagrove Beach and 30A. 3 BR/3 Bath was amazing for two families and kids. The facility is amazing with only 8 total units, covered parking for 2 cars per unit, a great elevator that was clean and functional, luggage carts available for move-in, and even a trash chute for easy garbage disposal. This unit is on the top floor and has a penthouse feel with amazing views of the ocean and sealife. The pool was clean. Access to the beach was simple. The AC worked wonderfully and was a blast of refreshment each time we came in from the heat. The patio is the star, but the living room, breakfast area and kitchen were perfect. I'd LOVE to own this place. Everything worked and was great.

We loved our stay at Grand Playa. The condo is lovely. Everything was very clean upon arrival with an easy check in. The kitchen is very well stocked with pots, pans, utensils and containers for at home cooking. The beds and furniture were all very comfortable. They had some games and puzzles there for entertainment. A nice washer and dryer for laundry.The daily view of the ocean was incredible. The balcony was very lovely and had a great view of the pool. Staying right on the beach was really fun and ideal with young kids. The beach was crowded but not too bad. The location was nice, not too busy but lively and close to things ( we got a golf cart). We didnt hear any of our neighbors.Everything was as described and we had a blast!

Reviewer Comments:
This was my first stay at the Grand Playa Condos. I stayed in unit 401. This is hands down the best condo I have rented in the 32 years of going down to the beaches of 30A. I have already booked it for next year. I am the only person staying in the condo, so three bedrooms are a bit overkill. But that’s OK; it makes the condo seem much bigger.The condo is huge, has upscale everything, and is nicely decorated (it does not have the sickly pink and aqua color scheme). A nice touch is the weighted comforters. The weather was pretty good; it only rained on one date. The water was as clear and clean as I have seen it – no sea feed or other matter.You can walk to Seaside and Café Thirty-A.

My husband, two sons and I spent the week at GP 401 to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and it was wonderful. The condo is spacious, clean and plenty roomy for four adults. Kitchen was as well stocked as I've seen on 30A. The porch and chairs were amazing. We spent hours out there. The pool wasn't clean when we arrived but Benchmark worked their butts off to get it cleaned for us. We've been coming to Seagrove (and Grayton) for nearly 30 years and this was one of the best homes we've stayed in. Easy walk to the beach and best of all, so quiet. We would rent again in a heartbeat.

We love the Grand Playa 401 Condo. Covered parking, excellent location, up scale furnishings and directly on the beach. Perfect for morning coffee on the outdoor lanai. This was our 6th year in the same location.
The condo was very nice. Conveniently located only 1 mile east from Seaside.
Bike rentals right across the street at Butterfly’s. Wonderful restaurants within walking distance. We also rented a golf cart through Vacayzen.
Only negative there are no beach chairs or umbrellas provided by the condo unit, but you can rent them for the day or week.
Overall had a wonderful vacation.

Reviewer Comments:
The condo was well-appointed and perfect for our family of 6. There were however, two negatives. One was the beach service options. The rental gear credit was a nice amenity but we would have preferred to have the credit applied to beach service for set up. Hauling our chairs up and down each day was inconvenient requiring one of us to go down by 6:00 a.m. to secure a spot near the water. The second negative was the size and location of the grill. It was tiny, making it difficult to grill for 6 people. Plus, the sprinkler system went on while my husband was grilling (during the dinner hour) with the spray soaking him.

The over all experience was good. The 2 king size beds, in the masters, were horrible! And the plastic mattress covers need to be removed. Owners need to update the mattresses, with nice new mattresses. The property had nice furniture but didn’t have a “beachy” feel. Great location on 30A and reasonably priced. We stayed at The Grand Playa the past 2 years (different units) We will continue to stay at The Grand Playa but in a different unit. I would recommend this property, but not this unit.
