We’ve been coming to the area for 4 years now and wanted to try somewhere new and boy we were not disappointed! We got the room on the beach with our own private access and it was amazing. Room was beautiful, pictures don’t do it justice. Staff was great and the parking was perfect. We will be booking with RVA every year.

Lovely property in an excellent position for beach and pool. Kids had a great time. Any problems were sorted quickly - the toaster didn’t work and was replaced immediately. I would have liked more plates as had to wash up rather than use the dishwasher being a family of 6.

Nice place for a competitive price
Pros:
- Location of our unit was right on the beach.
- Umbrellas and chairs provided.
- Beach was not busy in mid June.
- Pool was nice.
- AC was incredible.
Cons:
- I realize what goes with being so close to the water but it could have used a bleaching in the bathroom to get rid of the moldy corners.
- Wifi wasn't that good.
Overall I'd stay there again

Love the beach, condo in need of TLC
The beach, pool, and common areas were fabulous. The condo is in much need of TLC. My elderly parents and kids couldnt open the sliding glass door because it is rusted and wont stay in the track. Main bathroom has a rusty tub and molded tile. The dishwasher leaked and the condo is not well equiped to use the kitchen. For the price we expected a more updated condo. As native Floridians we understand recovering from hurricanes, but some of the issues are easily fixable. The unit also needs a vacuum for guests to clean. The unit was dirty upon arrival. We had to clean bacon off the counters and floor.

Step out the back door to your toes in the sand
This is the third annual beach trip for me and 3 of my girlfriends. Best set up we have seen. Less than 100 steps to a beach that is surrounded by private residences resulting in this property pretty much having a long stretch of beach to itself. NICE, sturdy lounge chairs are kept on the beach - no dragging them between your unit and the beach. Unit is small, but slept 4 of us easily. Full kitchen - pretty well-equipped. Pool are was nice - very clean - gas grills available for use. Office offers beach umbrellas for use at no charge. Wagons are available for unpacking/packing your vehicle. Definitely recommend!!!

Reviewer Comments:
The proximity to the beach is ideal. It's literally just steps out the "back" door to the beach. We were disappointed that the area was experiencing a red tide when we were there. We were looking forward to long walks on the beach, but mother nature prevented us from doing that. There were dead fish all over the beach and the smell of the fish and the red tide seemed unbearable at times. Of course, the owners/managers were not able to control this. We were still able to enjoy the area despite the beach conditions and odors being less than ideal. The property provided most everything we needed. There were plenty of towels and enough starter supplies (TP, paper towels, coffee filters, dish detergent, soap, shampoo, and lotion). Renters need to supply ALL their own pantry items, including salt/pepper. The king-size bed was very firm. The living room furniture is "tired," but it was sufficient for our short stay. There are enough dishes for 4-6 people. Although the property isn't in perfect condition, the cleanliness was satisfactory. There are lots of good restaurants in the area. There are also ssome areas for shopping. The best part of staying here is that it is peaceful and not crowded. We hope to return sometime when there is not a red tide.

The place was right on the beach with great access. The apartment was nice and had some room. My main complaints would be the cleanliness and conditions. For example, the utensil tray was very dirty and we felt we had to wash everything before we used it. Secondly, there were quite a few ants. We had a good time and enjoyed the location but doubt we will ask for this particular unit again. The RVA agents are very nice and accommodating so we will definitely use RVA again.

We have been vacationing at Silver Sands for many years. It works well for a multigenerational vacation - each family has their own space. We like the pool area and the proximity of the beach with lounge chairs available although this year one morning they were not unlocked til 10:30. The units are clean but some are a little dated. Everyone looks forward to our family vacation at Silver sands - this year we had 15!

Reviewer Comments:
We have stayed at this resort in this unit for decades. I feel like the quality of the unit is not worth the ever increasing cost. Although we appreciate the beautiful view, there are items in the unit that have needed repair/replacement for years. The sofa is extremely uncomfortable and the sliding door is now almost impossible to open. In addition this year the refrigerator was missing a shelf making the food storage limited especially when you’re accommodating a family for a week. Lastly, for the price I feel that if you’re not going to include daily cleaning you should at least have a team that removes trash and replaces linens in your room. In the current condition I would not recommend the unit. In fact we did not reserve for our vacation next year even though we have been there for over 25 years :(

WE had been coming here for years about 10 years ago. We decided to do a reunion. We now have to clean out rooms, take the trash out, and out dishwasher was broken. For the price we are charged, this small lack of services was huge. I felt bad for the front desk managers, they had to do so much more because they were the only people on the property.

My first comment is to say that your Guest Service Agent, Margaret is awesome. Always a smile & ready to help in any way. She takes great care of all your renters. She is a valued representative for your company. we expect to see her back next year!This is our 2nd yr at SS & as was last year, the overall experience was great. This was our 1st stay in #249. The unit gets high marks in the areas of HVAC, tvs, water pressure. It really had everything we needed. I'm thinking that after this year, the LR sofa might need to be replaced, but otherwise the furnishings were good - beds were very comfortable - the decor very pleasing. As you will see below, we gave 5 stars to all your questions. We are booked for next year and can't wait to return.

We've stayed in this condo before, 5 years ago, and it has gone downhill since then. The furniture was the same, just much older and dirtier. The lanai had holes in the screen causing us to get eaten alive, there was black mold growing on the paint just below the sliding glass doors, and the paint on the floor of the lanai was bubbling up in certain areas and flaked off in others. Lastly, we couldn't get in the room until well after our check in time because the cleaners took over two hours to complete the cleaning from the previous tennants.

We paid $3,300 for a week in the off season and our room was not clean. A lot of things broken also. The bathtub had a ring of dirt around it. Also the toilet. There was sand on our couch. The fridge had a broken shelf that was taken out and a broken drawer. the oven was dirty inside and the baking trays weren't cleaned. Paint peeling off our door. I have pics of everything. The office lady said she couldn't do anything and we had to call a 1800 number. We will not be back.
