Slice of paradise

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. 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: It was spectacular to have an oceanfront room just steps from the beach. There was some storm damage and erosion from the hurricane but it didn't impact our view or access. There were landscapers on site actively cleaning up the brush. Our unit was completely remodeled and sparkling clean.

We cant wait to go back!!

My wife and I had an amazing time in Longboat Key while staying at Silver Sands. Our unit was awesome the back screened-in porch had a path right onto the beach. Upon walking into the unit there was a nice clean smell. Everything was tidy. The room came with pretty much everything you needed for a nice getaway. I highly recommend staying in one of the two rooms that lead right onto the beach it was absolutely perfect. All of the staff was accommodating and very friendly. I also loved that the beach wasn't overcrowded in this area.

My happy place

Rating Details: The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very 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: We have been visiting Silver Sands for more than 10 years. Each year the condition of the condo and property has declined. The cleaning fee is a rip off and a joke. There was food visible on the kitchen cabinets and behind the KT sink. Stove looked like someone spat on it! The sofa was so used it about swallowed us, the cheap LR chairs ugh! The bedding had pizza sauce on it & small dried up bugs!!!!!This is a fantastic location with sub par service. Step it up!

Right on the beach!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. 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: We had a fantastic view and access to the beach 24/7. Our visit in early November was quiet and uncrowded. The kitchen in our unit was minimally equipped for doing our own cooking, but all the basics were there. The laundry facilities were clean and worked well, though you need to bring 8 quarters to run each machine. The heated outdoor pool was a nice plus.

Longboat Key Beach View

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. 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 do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a beautiful beach experience and enjoyed our stay for the week. The only thing that made our trip sour was the bed was so hard, my husband and I both woke up everyday with aching backs and hips. My daughter and her family stayed in another room and their bed felt amazing. For the top dollars that we had to pay, the bed was sadly inadequate.

Very Clean Great Beach Access

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: The room was the best in the resort for beach access, spotless and well suited to our needs other than the mattress. The king bed mattress was uncomfortable with box springs that squeaked every time you moved. My husband ended up sleeping on the couch.
