Silver Sands was a great place for us to stay for our Longboat Key getaway! My only complaint would be that it would have been nice for housekeeping to come in at least once for what we paid. Otherwise, yes, we would certainly stay here again!

Silver Sands is right on the beach , it’s “old Florida” You have access to Cedars East, with free bikes, (however, they did not honor them for us and pool , tennis and Pickleball courts . The office manager Margaret is wonderful, responsive and helpful. The room needs updates: the shower grout is old and moldy, the toilet seat had wear marks ,mattress is hard and old, there is a loud wall unit for HVAC . That said I would stay again at the property just not in this unit.

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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 recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location, the weather and the front desk service is great! The room is doable for the price. Many have said a new matress is needed and we agree. Its not fun to recover from vacation bc your bed was bad. Many have said the tv is tiny. I don't go on vacation to watch tv but March Madness was going and it is nice to unwind in the evening when there is no night life on the island. Two easy improvements would make this a 100% great place to be.

Unit needs updating. Bedding was plain sheets and a blanket in-between. Bathroom had poor lighting and an old shower. Mirror was so low anyone over 5’5” couldn’t use it. Air conditioning was loud. Pool & beach were excellent..

First of all we arrived at 4:30 and the front desk was already closed. We wanted to get there as early as possible to make sure our room was ok. The room smelt like musty, moldy basement, the room is very small and dark, not as bright as the photo shows. No place to put your suitcases or anything, just a few drawers. We turn the air conditioner down, thinking it was just damp from being shut up or something went and bought scencies and such to help. The next morning, we went down to talk to the lady at the front desk and here She leaves an hour early every day due to traffic I feel like we should have gotten a notification about that. When we told her about the smelly room, all she said was that’s too bad, and there were no other rooms because they were booked didn’t even act concerned we were hoping it would’ve cleared up but discovered that night it was the air conditioner. My husband cleaned out the filter and everything. It was disgusting. When we asked the lady where we could eat, she said there was nothing on longboat key that we had to go into Annamarie Island or Sarasota, which was not true, we found out from other people there were several places to eat-within walking distance.. as of right now traveling into Annamarie Island was a nightmare. There is construction going on everywhere so traffic is very slow. The beaches were absolutely amazing white powdery, sand, and very quiet. Would not return to this Silver Sands again, but maybe other rooms were better.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It is a great place to stay an right on the beach. They had beach chairs/loungers and beach umbrellas for us as well. We had great customer service, mostly touch free just had to pick up the keys at the desk. We enjoyed the walk to Harrys convenient store and gourmet Deli just down the road. We did not use the tennis courts that was offered but the place looked nice when we walked by it so it is also in walking distance.

THE PROS: The beach is awesome. The pool is well-maintained, as are the grounds and exterior of buildings. The room was clean and had: coffee maker, toaster, microwave, mini fridge/freezer and blender, as well as tableware. The mattress and pillows were very comfortable. Bed linens and towels were of fine quality. THE CONS: The room is claustrophobic in size, with not a single comfortable chair or loveseat. There was a wooden chair that appeared to be a rescue from Salvation Army, a postage stamp sized high-top table with two stools. The seats of the stools had the tops of the legs protruding above the level of the rattan seats, so they dug into your backsides or thighs painfully. Bring your own coffee for the coffee maker, as it was never replenished on a daily basis. Bring your own ice for the blender, since the small ice tray in the freezer did't hold enough ice for a single margarita. Bring your own maid to straighten out your room, because we never saw the Mary's Maids we believed would do that. If you are older and not good with stairs, don't get a room on the second floor--no elevators. Other than that it was fine.

Room was not thoroughly clean when we arrived. Spill on floor not mopped up. Towel hanging on back of bathroom door from former occupant. Freezer had melted red in freezer and refrigerator was not cleaned. Blood on mattress pad. Housekeeping did come to try to rectify but not acceptable from the beginning.
