Family vacay

This was our 2nd stay at Island Sands. It was very convenient being able to walk right out to the beach. No elevators is a big deal for us with 3 kids! The room was very clean and had everything we needed! Kids slept on the pull out couches with no complaints. We love coming here. Everyone is always so friendly and are usually there for the same reasons as us.. less people!! No fighting for a place on the beach or having other families right on top of us. The whole trip was great, we will be back next year!

Perfect Vacation

This was our first time, as a family, taking a beach vacation so It was also our first time renting a condo that was beachfront. This stay was everything we could’ve hoped for. Super clean, easy access to the beach, and the entire place was family friendly. We will be back again. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

Good for quick stay

As the title implies, this property is perfect for a quick stay but otherwise lacks basic amenities such a blender. The property is also older and the furniture expresses this. There's also construction set to occur at the building, much of the "face" of the building has scaffolding & some of the building is being supported via beams & air jacks? Likely of course they wouldn't do this if it was "safe" but I can see how some folks would feel uncomfortable.

We had a wonderful vacation. The place was quiet. I enjoyed stepping out of the back patio and walking on the beach. Definitely a family place. It was nice to be able to cook in the kitchen and do our laundry when needed. We were also 5 minutes from the Gulfarium.

Great Location and enjoyed stay, but a few hiccups!

The positives: First of all, we loved the location of this condo. Super easy to access beach and pack stuff to and from. No shoes required just a few steps to the boardwalk. Easy with kiddos to travel back and forth for lunch or if we forgot something. Also, the beach service was excellent with providing two chairs and an umbrella and the guys were super nice. The beach was not crowded since the condominium is only three stories and it was family friendly. Parking was easy to get to, steps from the door. The water and the sands was beautiful! The condo was fully stocked with lots of towels, rags, dishes and everything we needed! The negatives: When we arrived the whole condo smelled like rotten seafood/curry. It took us a while to figure out that it was coming from garbage disposal. We had to go to the store buy bleach and garbage disposal cleaner to try to get the smell out. It was awful. It got the smell out somewhat. The wifi never worked and the coffee pot leaked when you poured it.

Our favorite beach

We've stayed at the Island Sands condos several times during the past 12 years. This is our 2nd year on the 1st level and it was nice not climbing the stairs at our age. Miss the balcony view of the gulf, but the convenience of 1st floor access to parking and beach compensated for the loss of view. Condo was clean, except for a few dishes and cups. Kimberly and her staff were great and very attentive to any concerns or needs. We're coming back next year.
