Very nice resort

Silver Shells is a great resort. We stayed in St Lucia and the property was very clean. The balcony is a good size and we enjoyed a few meals at the outside table there. The bed was comfortable, however the pillows were flat. So maybe bring your own pillows. Very nice master bath. We couldn't figure out how to connect a cable to the Internet to have more options to watch TV but overall, we had a great time.

We had the best time! The condo had everything we needed and the resort was close to all the fun. I did extensive research on resorts and location and this one was definitely the best. We drove by ones we considered and I’m so glad we went with silver shells! We will definitely be back.

Spring Break 2024

My daughter and her friend wanted to go to Destin for spring break so my wife and I took them. Nice condo and nice complex. Condo was clean. My only "gripe" on the condo was the kitchen could have been better stocked and the master bedroom bed could have been better. Check-in was a little confusing for us, but we got it figured out. Waze got confused taking us to the rental company to pick up are packet, so that took a few turns to find. Overall nice place and would stay there again. Enjoyed the pickleball courts and fitness center.

Great location

Great location. Walking distance to amazing restaurants. Beach was private and pools were very well kept up. We were really bummed out the tennis courts were being repaved and we couldn’t use it at all. Listing was very well kept lots of amenities and kitchenware to use. Air conditioner was extremely frustrating and it kept Auto setting back to 78* at night after we would set it. Bathroom & Closet and all rooms were huge. Really enjoyed our stay. Communication with owner and rental property was great.

Nice condo!

This condo met all my expectations. One thing I would say is the cookware needs some work. As for pots, there was only one small one. Also, there wasn't any plasticware with lids or anything to store our food in the refrigerator for leftovers.

Silver Shells is Outstanding

Great unit and views of the ocean from both rooms. Rental process was quick and easy! Silver shells is outstanding. Only issue we had on arrival was that it wasn’t as clean as it could have been. We found black mold in both of the showers. Other than that the property was great and well managed.

Checkin needs help

The check in process was a bit out of the way. I had to drive 10 minutes out of the way for check in and out. I arrived about and no one there. Box where they put my keys was not showing the lock codes. I had to shove my hand in to get the keys!! Then one of my fobs did not work and I couldn't access anything in the complex. They did bring a new one the next day. The condo itself was nice and as decribed. Could use some new bed pillows tho. Condo was clean and I enjoyed the resort after I coukd access it. Needs a better check in site!
