This 2 bedroom condo was everything plus more than I expected. Clean, spacious, accessible and so vey comfortable. My husband and I wanted to take my younger brother, who has very limited mobility on a vacation that he would always remember. This place has achieved many memories for all of us. Directly from our Lanai was the beautiful pool and behind the pool was the crystal, calm turquoise water of the Gulf of Mexico. There was plenty of towels for the beach and for bathing. Our unit was supplied with plenty of house hold necessities. Our host was Georgia. She was very responsive to any questions that I may have had before our trip. The staff in the office was always welcoming. Check in was a breeze as well as checkout. I would definitely recommend the Silver Sands 2 bedroom condo 243S for anyone looking for peacefulness and tranquility with a superior stay!

Great 3day weekend

Stay was easy and what you would expect from a beech condo. It’s not the Ritz but you can’t get much closer to the beach. We felt like we had a private beach. The pool closes at 5 when they go home but you still have the beach right there. Would definitely stay here again

Pool was closed

They had to make repairs which took most of our stay. Very disappointing. Other than that, it was just what I expected.

Above my expectations!

In general I was very impressed with this property, the management, the location, everything. The ONLY thing that was awkward was that to get from the master bedroom to the kitchen you had to walk through the second bedroom. Minor inconvenience to get so much for this price.
