Reviewer Comments:
Silver Sands looks exactly like the photos. Everything was clean. The only complaint I would have is that the shower curtain liner was dirty, which is so gross. A new liner should be put up after each guest. The bathroom looks new and was very clean except for the shower liner. The bed and pillow were ok. The kitchen is stocked with enough for a small family or a couple people. The view is perfect. It is a bit of a walk for someone that may not be in the best of shape to get to the room as it's located all the way in the back and up a flight of stairs. The pool looked great, unfortunately due to a tropical storm it was closed. Plenty of beach chairs available. I would return.

Silver Sands #250 is a hidden gem ~ a beautiful rental in a great location! The description was accurate and the unit was very clean. Superior appliances, plumbing fixtures and furnishings were utilized in the fresh remodel. The large screened in porch provided relaxing & spectacular views at any time of the day, but dinner & drinks while watching the beautiful sunsets was especially amazing! The pool was large, clean and surrounded by lounge chairs and tables with umbrellas. Silver Sands management and staff were friendly and helpful. We’ll definitely look into this specific unit on a return to Longboat Key!

We had a very relaxing stay at Silver Sands. The rental unit was very comfortable. It did feel like "old Florida" style, which is a good thing! Nice grounds, pool was fantastic, putting green was an added bonus! The beach here was quiet and perfect!

The property needs all around updating. Walk to beach is not cleared. No nice pathway. Chairs are old some broken etc. they provide you a zip tie for your umbrella. Pillows in room are old and worn. Air filter was dirty in a/c. I do NOT recommend this place for the cost. I will NOT return.

We have stayed at Silver Sands for several years, and the front desk staff is always very friendly and helpful. The unit is immaculately clean, with beautiful, comfortable furnishings. The view is incredible. The only thing is that the beach chairs could use some cleaning/updating, as some are missing straps or dirty.

This was our second stay at Silver Sands. It is the PERFECT location and setting on the gulf. The unit was newly renovated and very comfortable. Being on the second floor this time, the views were amazing. The steps were a little tough to navigate with luggage and such but we managed. The management are very responsive and great to deal with. Would definitely stay again!

We enjoyed 6 nights at Silver Sands in January 2023. The unit was clean although the bed and pillows were not comfortable. The office staff was very welcoming and helpful. We’ve been renting two units for our family at Silver Sands the past 8 years for spring break week. It’s a great place for families. Last year our 10 yr old grandson complained about the beds so we definitely knew what we were getting.

My young adult daughters stayed here with us for a week and it was a wonderful place to stay. The beach and pool we’re great. We really enjoyed Cedars fitness and racquet sports across the street and found it a completely relaxing time. The unit itself is a gem. Newly updated and clean. The king size bed is very comfortable. There was one issue that was disappointing and didn’t seem to fit with the rest of the experience and that was the pull out sofa where my daughters slept. It was uncomfortable to sit in as a couch, well worn and stained. That would’ve been tolerable, but the pull out bed was really bad, they were actually extra cushions stuffed under the mattress to help. It was very uncomfortable and my girls said they would’ve preferred an air mattress. The place is so great if we go again we will just take an air mattress. Management and staff were fantastic.

For seniors the bed was too high, but it was comfortable. Sofa should be replaced, cushions were worn down on sofa bed couch and was not comfortable. The pool area was well kept. Pool water was great. Office staff terrific. Quiet end of the island was perfect.

Pleasantly surprised. The unit was brighter and nicer than I expected. The pool was very nice and clean. The only complaint is I whacked both of my knees on the corner of the bed frame in the middle of the night. A little bleach would help get rid of the mildew on the clear shower curtain. Overall great and I would stay there again without a doubt.

Love Longboat Key the beach and water are beautiful.Silver Sands is steps away from the beach enjoyed the pool. I have stayed in several of the units always clean and plenty of linens the only complaint is some of the units need some REMODELING ice maker is an important need when you are vacationing. But other than that love our visit.

Perfect getaway
Had a great stay location was great view was perfect! Didn’t love that you enter condo through bedroom door but it was ok. Very sparse on kitchen equipment but we ate out so wasn’t a big deal. There was a coffee maker and that’s pretty much all we used. The lanai was amazing for spending morning with our coffees. Can’t wait to return.

Location was perfect. Was a bit expensive compared to other local sites for the size of the room View was beautiful. Wish they had a garbage can in kitchen and a sweeper to vacuum up sand/ crumbs. Also, there were chocolate (?) stains on couch- cleaning service could have done better. Lastly- coffee table was heavy- had to move it to pull out bed. Wish it were lighter. Property management not always in office- had to wait 20 min to speak w someone.

Unit itself was disappointing. Low quality furnishings and kitchen utensils. Living room furniture was very uncomfortable, dishwashers was one of the noisiest I’ve seen.

Probably would not stay here again.
