Lovely property
If you are looking for a quiet getaway, this is your place. Located right on the beach. Beautiful heated pool. Everything I needed for my 4 night stay. I took a 3 mile drive to Coquina beach and took the free ferry out to the pier. Sarasota is a short drive south and there were lots of cute shops. Great place, I would definitely return.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall experience was great, the only complaint was there was no coffee cups, but just used a glass that was in the cabinet. I guess if that's the biggest complaint, then I really had nothing to complain about. Beautiful beach in a great location.

Awesome Staycation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were looking for a quiet weekend getaway and Silver Sands fit the bill 100%. From check in to check out Margaret was wonderful. The room was exactly as described. Perfect for two. The only thing I would look for differently next time is a room with a screened in area. We knew this room didnt have one but will upgrade next time. We would absolutely stay here again.

Amazing, beautiful, private beach!
We decided to get away from the crowds and traffic on Anna Maria Island this year and head south to Longboat Key. The beach is amazing, the grounds are well-kept, and the other guests were quiet and polite. We only have 3 suggestions: 1) If you are staying for longer than one night, we suggest you rent a one bedroom unit with a lanai. The hotel room unit is on the small size, and there is nowhere to dry swimsuits and beach towels. We wll definitely upgrade to a one bedroom next visit! 2) There were not enough functioning beach umbrellas for all the guests, and 3) VRBO advertised daily maid service, which is not the case. Other than these issues, we had a marvelous time, and we will definitely stay again (but we will bring our own beach umbrella with us next trip!)

Beautiful Location
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: Our room was very clean but smelled horribly of disinfectant. We had to open the door and turn on the bathroom fan for ventilation. Our bed was comfortable and the resort was calm and quiet. The property was well maintained. The day before out checkout we received a list of chores that we had to complete before we left. We were required to strip the beds and place our towels and linens on the floor; we also were required to empty the garbage, and put the bag in the dumpster. Was this not part of our $100 cleaning fee?

Great low-key beach vacation
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: Perfect location on Long Boat Key, right on the beach with heated pool and just down the street from Harry's deli where we got beach lunch to-go several days. The accommodations are modest and resort is smaller, but everything you need for a few relaxing days in the Florida sunshine. Great value and would choose to stay here on our next trip to Long Boat Key.

Silver sands unit cs location
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Silver sands Location is fine. Unit was good but ti y ( no sink or stove) vs other units we've stayed at at silver sands, a little hotelly vs resorty. Parking was tight. Residents were fine. Desk person, Margaret was great. Received a notice by email from rva that we didn't read til after we’d left regarding the check out process ( strip sheets , remove garbage ,etc) that was not part of our check in notes or in the unit, so we hadn’t done.
