We love Silver Sands!

We got married on the beach at Longboat Key! So romantic and peaceful. Silver Sands is amazing, very clean and the pool is beautiful and so clean. Margaret at the front office is so nice and accommodating. This was our second year staying here but not our last! We love it here!

Right on the beach! Perfect!

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: Silver Sands is right on the beach so walk out your door and out onto the sand! Our room was very clean, comfortable, nicely decorated, and super accommodating. It did not have a kitchenette, however, they had extras that a regular hotel does not have such as coffee mugs, wine glasses, real dishes and silverware. The sandy beach is beautiful and quiet, and offers lounge chairs too. Morning walks were amazing! Not crowded at all. The pool is clean and 90 degrees with grills and chairs to use. We would love to go back.

Room on the beach

Perfectly situated between laid-back Anna Maria Island to the north, Sarasota attractions to the south, and the Gulf beach a few steps from your door, where you can join the crowd any clear evening to watch the lovely sunset. Also, clean, warm pool. Note that there are two different kinds of accommodations. The "A" rooms like we had are best for a base for running around the area. The other suites have beach-side screen porches where you could spend a leisurely week or more enjoying the gulf breeze and the surf sounds. If I were to stay in the area again for a week or more, I would definitely consider renting one of the suites. But for a few days as a home base for running around the area, the "A" rooms are fine.

Perfect Getaway

This was the perfect February getaway from the cold northern winter for my husband and I. The room was nicely decorate, efficient, clean, and best of all steps away from a spectacular beach! The office staff was incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make our stay easy and pleasant. We'd definitely come back!
