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: We really enjoyed our stay and that we were steps away from a beautiful white sand private beach right on the Gulf. The property is very quiet and the room is comfortable and clean and is a great base for a short term vacation on Longboat Key - only drawbacks was the bed could use some improvement (too soft) and the grills in the pool area did not work while we were there. But those were minor issues that can be easily corrected and this property and location were an excellent value for this area. ##### Douglas R. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Doug 20 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Silver Sands has easy access to a beautiful private beach and the heated pool is a wonderful option - all just steps from our room. The staff is very friendly and encouraged us to report any issues to them - and offered good suggestions for dining in the area nearby - Harry's less than a half mile down the street has terrific food whether you go to the restaurant or their grocery with to go options. Our only complaints are that while the room was comfortable and clean and met our needs - the bed was a bit soft and hard on the back. Also, the gas grills by the pool did not work while we were there. But, all in all this is a great option for a short term stay on Longboat Key and we would recommend it! ##### Doug Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### joanna m. 4 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location #### 2 day get away.

Would go again. Land line telephones.in room and outdated ##### joanna m. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dean M. 28 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### Dean M.

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. ##### Natalie H.
