The condo was spacious, well-appointed, and clean. Silver Sands is in a great location. We loved the pool, shuffleboard, and put-put golf, and, of course, the beautiful beach. Access to Cedars was also great!

Spacious, Peaceful, Perfection

Property was very spacious, impeccably maintained, and perfect location! Resort was right on the beach, everything was beautifully maintained, pool was warm and wonderful, and the beach was just about the best (if you like calm, gentle waves) that I have ever seen (even better than Siesta Key Beach!). Soft, gorgeous sand and almost crystal clear blue water. Staff was super-helpful and kind, very accommodating. Rooms were even larger (and better quality) then the pictures conveyed. I can't recommend this place enough!

Not What We Expected for a $553 a Night - Two Night Stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful, well-furnished condo with awesome beach access. However, light bulbs were burnt out in 2 of the lamps,blinds were broken in 1 BR, refrigerator was very noisy,toilet base was wobbly in BR 1, large kitchen wall clock didn't work,front door lock needed repair, found live cockroaches in kitchen, all windows were filthy, canvas awning on patio needed repair, traffic noise made it difficult to sleep, small water heater made it hard for all 4 people to take warm showers. Very disappointed for paying this kind of money!

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location was nice and right on the beach. The room was average at best. wasn’t very clean and it is a little rundown and worn out. Nothing smelled clean and it was shabby. Needs paint and a good deep clean. The family room area rug is old and worn out and was curling up which was a tripping issue. Wouldn’t stay again

Wonderful property right on the beach!

Had a wonderful long weekend here with extended family. Unit was clean, fantastic location steps from the powdery white sand beach. Great that they had lounge chairs for us to use. Nice pool with pool toys available as well. Harry's market right down the road was perfect for our food/drink needs. Free gym pass to a gym within walking distance was wonderful also.
