Beautiful oceanfront view

Easy access to both pool and beach with it only being ten steps away. We enjoyed this nice quiet area with polite neighbors during our stay. Plenty of room for the 5 of us and would highly recommend for anyone who is looking for an oceanfront place.

Great location, Very Relaxing Vacation!

We stayed at the condo in early May and had perfect weather. That location is fantastic. Condo offers a full view of the ocean and is only steps from the beautiful, uncrowded beach. Close to shopping and many wonderful restaurants. We love St Armand’s Circle. Condo itself was nice. Beautiful balcony. Although we did not cook, kitchen appear to be well stocked. Only odd thing was the entrance into the condo was through the second bedroom. This did not bother us and it was noted in the description of the rental unit. Beach chairs were available for guests to use. Beach umbrellas were also actually available in the condo unit itself, but they were in the back closet which we never opened until the last day of our stay. Instead we went and purchased an umbrella. Perhaps the owner should consider making that information known to the guests to save them, the expense of going out and purchasing their own umbrellas, only to find them later. They now have an extra umbrella as we left the one we purchased in the condo in the closet. Our only issue with the condo was that the property allows visitors to smoke on their patios. The people below us were smokers. Every night we would have to go inside and close our door until they finished smoking as the smoke all came up into our patio. Lucky for us, they did not smoke long, but if you are sensitive to smoke or just simply dislike it, this should be considered. My hope would be in the future that the condo association votes to make the entire property non-smoking or designate an area away from the actual units or people can go and have a cigarette. Other than the issue with the cigarettes, it was a lovely vacation - very relaxing in a fantastic area of Florida.

Well-kept and Great Location!

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The property was well-kept. The kids loved the pool and of course the beach. It was nice having chairs and umbrellas to grab as we walked out to the beach.

Amazing ocean view

We rented end of April 2022 and the top floor Oceanfront condo was clean and view was amazing. Nice pool. Quiet area. We will return. Had to drive to restaurants but not a far drive. Close to airport. Please buy more beach umbrellas!

Very kind management

We stayed here for 7 nights and never regretted. Quite friendly place where you can give your mind a peace. The pictures are 100% accurate. The staff are very understanding and responsive. Best service I’ve gotten for years. We’ve got some problems with some of the appliances but they were solved with a rocket speed. It’s a technology, happens from time to time. Also I would suggest to refresh some of the furniture (old but well taken care of and clean). When you planning to visit this room with the toddler keep in mind that there is only ceramic tile flooring all around the unit. Great view from the living room. Enter of this unit opens to one of the rooms (not a master one) with 2 twin beds, this could be an issue for some picky renters, but myself I didn’t find it a problem. Pool is always clean. The fresh towels you get every day. Overall GREAT. Highly recommend this place for others to stay in.

Had a great time. Great location. Only problem was water does not drain well from master bathroom. It wasn’t a deal breaker. I would definitely recommend the place and stay here again.

Amazing view!

My husband and I stayed at this condo for a week with our 2.5 year old and had the greatest time! you literally cannot get any closer to the beach or pool, talk about perfect location! The condo was so cute, very clean and the perfect amount of space. Everything was updated and the cleaning service was definitely a plus! The pool and pool are were much bigger than i imagined. The pool was nice and warm and my daughter loved playing in it everyday! Some things to note are that it is not walking distance to much so be prepared to drive to restaurants and bars, although everything is close by. We chose to stay in and grill out a couple of nights. Also, as the description says the condo opens into the guest bedroom. If you have adults staying in there is could be kind of weird having to go through their bedroom to get in or out. Overall, great place to stay at a great price@

Girls Weekend

We enjoyed our stay at the Silver Sands unit #259. When we finally got to our room it was not cool and we had no A/C the first night. They did get it fixed for the remainder of the stay. Did request some type of refund, but have not heard back from them.

Cozy Condo

Stayed here for a weekend with another couple. Very clean and was exactly what they advertised. Great view and was nice that they had chairs already on the beach and you could bring down an umbrella from the condo if you wanted one.
