Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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 have always visited the resort in the past which seemed to always be very family friendly and relaxing. I realize there will always be some music and a variety of people but this time there was a HUGE group partying all weekend which made our experience not as pleasant as previous years. They took up most of the beach with their tents and we could hear music late at night from our room. They were grilling and in the pool late and made it uncomfortable and when I say HUGE I am talking like 30 people! Although we made the best of the weekend and still met a great other family, it might be time to find another place to stay on Longboat Key.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Decided to try a new place but should of gone with what I knew was good, location needs upgrade both inside and out. Didn't like thst the enterence to the unit is through the only bedroom that then leads to the rest of the unit. Bathroom is small and needs better cleaning, furniture is wicker and full of dust , had to call on a prescription for an for my husband's inhaler. Opened the fold out couch and disturbed the sleeping roach mattress cover was discussing and children's toys found under the mattress.went to walmart abd purchased an air mattress.the only storage closet in unit was full of random items and ironing board and iron just thrown in it.unable to utilize it for bags and suitcases for 4 guests. Didn't even attempt to use public washers or dryers. The price yoy pay for this place is only because it's on the same side of the street as the gulf

Ok so I had a family emergency the day I had to check in...I cannot say or share my experience...I never checked in or stayed...I asked for credit or a refund but got denied...its not the hotel's fault, they have rules they go by...I payed top dollar for a room the that I never stayed in, money lost on my behalf...Oh well...the front desk lady over the phone was very nice...I can't say anything else since I did not have experience with the property, hotel or room.

This was my second visit to Silver Sands, and anxious to return again. Staff was courteous and helpful, Beach was beautiful, and just out your door. Close proximity to Sarasota and St. Armands. Numerous fine restaurants within short distance. A bit dated, but enjoyed the quiet family atmosphere, and met many nice people at poolside.
