Great location and very clean!

Easy access to the beach. Entire facility was clean and well taken care of. Location was great for a quiet getaway. Loved that it was away from the packed beaches but a short and easy drive to St. Armond’s Circle one way and Bradenton Beach the other way. Staff was very friendly!

Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had multiple days of construction noise, but we understand the hurricanes have hit things hard in this area. It wasn't enjoyable how often and early the workers were on-site, including on Saturday. There were also multiple worker arguments we could hear throughout the days. We did enjoy the place and would return once construction is completed.

A well needed break

Very nice property right off the beach. We would stay here again. A note to future guests... this is a self service property. You will need to use the coin operated laundry to wash your towels, sheets, etc.

Little slice of paradise

Though smaller and older than many of the surrounding properties, Silver Sands was wonderful. Our unit was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The doors leading to the lanai opened up completely to create a beautiful indoor-outdoor living area, with a beautiful view of both the pool and the gulf. Silver Sands was our little slice of paradise....we hope to be back someday.
