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 is beautiful! There were just a few things that could use some improvement, we did see quite a few roaches during our stay in the bathrooms and kitchens, which we understand is a constant battle in Florida. Our biggest complaint is the wifi not working at all in the carriage house and the wifi in the house being VERY slow. As a group of women who were on this trip for business and pleasure it was frustrating to not have good reliable internet. The final concern is that there appears to be a leak in the ceiling of the carriage house right at the top of the stairs. ##### Kimberly O.

The location is breathtaking, nestled right by the gulf with pristine beaches and crystal-clear waters. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the exceptional service by Benchmark Management. Communication was seamless, ensuring that every aspect of our stay was nothing short of perfection.

Reviewer Comments: Overall the trip was good. Benchmark is proactive in communications with text. Bellagio accommodated our family well. The kids had space as well as each couple.. the negative is the close proximity to public beach access. Even though it was May, the beaches got very crowded especially on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. ##### Irby C.

The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall everyone enjoyed the stay! Location was the best part! House design and space was also great! However there were many very large size flying Roaches we encounter daily. They were not just in one part of the home they were all over, the master bedrooms, the kitchen, pool area, and third floor rooms. The garbage when we arrive was over flowing and smelled like a dead body unacceptable on arrival. Garbage wasn’t picked up until 5am Saturday we checked in Tuesday meaning we had to deal with the smell. They also made us responsible for pulling the cans to the end of drive way to make sure which should not have been our job and then told us we would be fine if they were not there to be pulled. How should this be the responsibility of the guests checking in. I would recommend making sure garbages are pulled before new guests arrive and having some one come spray. ##### SkyRose Rejuvenation Clinic & Spa L.

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: I planned my trip around the Bellagio home. Once I saw this house, I knew that I wanted to vacation there. The house is gorgeous. It’s been well-maintained, it was clean and Benchmark mortgage was quick to answer any questions that we had upon our arrival. The house is steps away from the beach. The views are stunning. It was a great place for me to celebrate my birthday with my girlfriend. There were only four of us in this massive house, but we planted it that way. Most certainly can sleep up to 20 people. All the bedrooms have TVs and all of the bedrooms, the entire house just makes you feel so cozy. It was such a relaxing time for us. We had a personal chef to come in and cook and , she went on the deck and was just amazed at the view. So if anyone is thinking of this property, do not think. Run and book it. I’m actually at this moment trying to book it again to take son, my daughter-in-law and my grandson thank you for being so good to me. You can’t go wrong booking this beautiful property. ##### Roanita Jenkins o. ### 6/10 Okay #### Mark H. 8 Sept 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Family vacation This should be a great home to have in VRBO availability. Unfortunately it needs to have a couple of weeks of maintenance and repairs. Hours after arrival our Grand kids were laying on the sofa’s and noticed that their feet were really dirty from walking barefoot in the house. Landscaping is a mess. Garage is loaded with previous replacement appliances. The back door needs door handle and latch replaced. When walking in to kitchen the Sheetrock on the corner of the bar area is separated. Exterior show signs of stucco repairs paint not matching. Widows rotten in kitchen area. Bolster broken on staircase. Downstairs flooring was replaced with a cheaper laminate flooring and needs replaced. Upon arrival the house had a serious musty smell. We went and bought plug-ins to alleviate the smell. The house is in an awesome location. Layout is good. Should be a wonderful place to enjoy. Unfortunately it leaves a lot to be desired with current conditions. As a fellow VRBO homeowner it was disappointing to spend this much money for the current conditions. ##### Mark H.

The house is everything it says it is and MORE. Great location, perfect set up for large group, and when we had an issue, it was quickly taken care. Spring break was very busy this year in Destin, the beaches were so packed, so we were very thankful for the private pool!!!!!!! We can’t wait to go back next year!!!!! ##### Dane B.

It was unbelievable. The beds were comfy and lots of room. The kitchen drawers need a good cleaning and the trim in kitchen could use some fresh paint but who cares with that view! This house was perfect for my large party! We had so much fun! I can’t wait to go back! ##### Mande N.

We renewed our 20th vows, and we was able to accommodate all 75of our guests. Nicole and her staff was amazing. They had a great setup for me and my husband. They also made sure we had everything we need. Thank you all! ##### Letitia G.

If you can’t have a good time in this home it’s you! Loved the home, the view and the beach. There where a few cockroaches on the main floor the first few nights but we took care of that! I imagine most homes there have that issue. We would go back again! ##### Josh N.

The house is amazing. One thing that should state on the website is the $35 per day extra charge to heat pool. We would defiantly go back if house is maintained. ##### Kim A.

Reviewer Comments: What a beautiful home. Gorgeous 3 story home RIGHT on the beach. Its a dream vacation. The Bellagio is that home that you pass on vacation and say" Wouldn't it be awesome to be able to stay there"! The view is a Million dollar view. We had a couple issues while there but Benchmark management stepped and did the right thing to help us. I would highly recommend a week at the Bellagio in Destin. ##### Thomas B.

The house and beach are gorgeous and clean. A bit of work in progress in carriage house was no problem. The management was very helpful and their crew rapidly responded to our requests. One suggestion is to install a garbage disposal. We would be happy to have a chance to return to this terrific location. ##### Rodger W.

My family came and celebrated my sons 18th birthday. We had a blast. Everything was more than expected. Everyone was very excited about this home. We called about the hot water down stairs, maintenance came and fixed problem immediately. The only thing was wrong, but didn't hender our fun, was the elevator was not operational, other than that, no complaints at all. House is directly on beach always a plus, and the private pool was also a plus. We will definitely return again and stay in this place. You guys rock. Thanks so much for allowing my family to rent this home. ##### Catherine C. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2017 ---
