Right on the Beach takes it over the top

My wife and I returned to Silver Sands unit #240 because it is close to the Gulf of Mexico waves, and is a quiet spot on Longboat Key. The unit was clean, with quality towels & linens, and an efficient kitchen. All you need : basic not fancy. Quiet and right on the beach. Lots of good restaurants within 5 -15 min drive.

Weekend Away

Overall very nice place for a quick get away. Easy check in and check out. Only issue would be the shower. Needs updated shower head and the tub needs re-enameled badly. Otherwise great place and would recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Bridget Myers

I am a wife of 24 years and mother to two sons in their 20's. My husband is originally from Thousand Oaks California, but moved to Muncie Indiana to be near family. I am originally from northwest Indiana and moved down to Muncie to attend Ball State. We are a very active family and now as empty nesters I look forward to traveling.

Why they chose this property

When we toured different places on Longboat Key and the surrounding area as an investment opportunity and somewhere we would want to vacation, there was no comparison once we found Unit 240. We looked at high rises, but the ideal place I had in mind was also a vacation for me (mom). I didn't want to pack 3 bags and take an elevator to make it to the sand. Since the boys were 6 and 4 it has been exactly what I was looking for. I can sit out on the lanai and watch them on the beach. If you forget a shovel or sunscreen it's just 20 steps back to our place to retrieve it. The chaise lounges waiting on the beach and the close proximity to pool is what I wanted.

What makes this property unique

Unit 240 really is our second home. To be able to open the back sliding door and hear the waves while you sleep will never get old. Having the beach so close and private are what I think people are looking for in a vacation. Our condo would be ideal for a honeymooning couple to a family of four. I hope my future grandkids will be able to have the same special memories my boys have made here.
