Silver Sands Spring 2024

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: We enjoyed our stay at Silver Sands very much. The location is perfect. Easy access to the beach. Nice beach chairs available daily at the pool and beach. Located close to many delicious restaurants. Our only complaint was our room was tiny. This is no fault of the property owners just didn’t realize how cramped we would feel.

Ugh

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was 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: It appeared to be a cute, quaint rental on the beach. It was on the beach, but was not what it seemed. Everything was old and dingy including the mattress which sagged toward the headboard. The walls were so thin that we could hear actual words spoken at normal volume in the rooms surrounding ours. Front desk personnel was delightful. We stayed there one night, then found a different place for the remaining 3 nights; better to spend more than stay there.

Another great vacation at Silver Sands!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had such a great time and accommodations this year. We were attached to my sister so we had what felt like a large apartment. Loved the pool and beach with umbrella provided by sillver Sands. Margaret was fantastic in meeting all of our needs and being present around the community!

Fantastic Location

Access to the quiet, private beach was fantastic. There are plenty of lounge chairs on the beach for use by residents and umbrellas in each unit. I could overlook the outdated condo for the sake of having a great location and access to the gorgeous, quiet beach. There was not elevator access to my room on the second floor so I suggest requesting a lower level room if you are unable to carry luggage up and down a flight of stairs.
