Hello!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review. We’re thrilled you enjoyed the property and had a great time with us. We can't wait to have you back! Have a great day!
Kyle, the host at check in was friendly and informative. He provided property information in an organized and thorough manner. It only took a few minutes. Our condo was spacious, clean, and decorated nicely. The best part was the ocean view, overlooking the pool and beach. The breeze and sound of waves were so relaxing!
I have stayed at Silver Shells twice before.and this time was just as great as previous stays.The private beach is awesome as well as all other amenities at Silver Shells. I highly recommend staying here.
