The location of this home is excellent. right on the beach with plenty of space for our family. Check-in was simple, and we stayed two nights on our way to Disney.

The property has great potential but needs more attention to cleaning and maintenance. There was noticeable dust on the walls and ceiling fans, and a few items were left in the refrigerator. More concerning were weak spots in the pool decking; we actually placed furniture over one area so no one would walk on it. The showers also fluctuated from comfortably warm to extremely hot or cold without adjusting the controls.
The flooring in front of the second-floor shower gives noticeably when walked on, and the tile has cracked and buckled.
As an owner/operator of short-term rentals myself, this felt more like a property managed as part of a larger group rather than one receiving close individual attention. Overall, the location and space are excellent, but better cleaning and preventative maintenance would make a big difference

Response From: Ben's Beach Homes

We appreciate all our guests, however, this review has no merit, home was just deep cleaned before their arrival, no soft spots anywhere. We did not hear from this guest during their stay, we did have to contact them though because of neighbors complaining about too much noise past 11 PM at night.

Making Waves is a special place for our family. We have celebrated life events and wonderful family time here. The home is great, the pool and deck are wonderful, and the beach access and views are unbeatable. Sunsets from the balcony and deck are not to be missed. Situated at the quieter end of PCB is perfect for us while still being close enough for many delicious options for dining and activities off the beach too. Don’t forget to visit St Andrew’s Historic district and enjoy some excellent gulf food at Uncle Ernie’s. Not to be missed. We love Making Waves and thank you to Ben’s Beach Homes for operating a great service.

We were in town for a baseball tournament. This house was perfect for multiple families to share the house and still have their own space. Management was very responsive and helpful! We will be back!!

This house was absolutely beautiful and a perfect location for a beach wedding. We ran into a few issues but Ben was quick to respond and very accommodating every time. We had many people staying at the house and everyone agreed that the house had everything we needed and was a perfect location. We would definitely stay here in the future.

We had a wonderful time at Ben’s Beach Home. It was extremely spacious and fit the family of 16 great. The beach was very private while we were there. The home was very clean. The host was super quick to respond. A couple things to note- there is a commercial size fridge (great size), a large deep freezer, two coffee pots, a Keurig, great supply of kitchen pots & pans/ utensils, only one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, no Kleenex or paper towels/ napkins and plan on doing a load of laundry for towels. These are just a few things we thought might be helpful to someone who has a reservation for the future. We are all excited and ready to book our trip in this same home next year. I would highly recommend!
