Cozy Beach Studio – Silver Sands #251A by RVA

This particular unit is tiny; just enough room for a double bed. There is a fridge and microwave, but no sink so actually cooking would be a challenge. One window--unopenable-- facing the parking lot. Someone has made a nice effort to decorate the room. The larger property has very nice beach access and the other units appear more attractive.

Room we stayed in could use some updating but other than that had everything we needed. Great pool area overlooking ocean. Fabulous beach area with chairs. Close to several restaurants and activities.

There is no view of the ocean all I had was a room. No place to buy food and I couldn't sleep well. The bed is on wheels and that was the only place to sit and relax. I was very disappointed ?.

Shower door was falling off. Very dated and dark needs brighter light bulbs as there is no natural light.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I hear that all the downstairs rentals have been updated because of the hurricane damage. The room that I stayed in really needs updating. The shower doors kept coming off the track (maybe the track needed to be cleaned). All the fixtures in the bathroom were rusty. The one chair at the table is so old and rickety, we were afraid to sit in it. The ceiling fan needs a screw in one of the blades because it was clacking. The ceiling fan really is too big for that room and hanging way too low. Dave had to walk around it because it is too low and would hit his head on it. I also had to buy hangers to hang up our clothes. We swept every day, but there was no dust pan to sweep it into. The staff was very nice, and the cleaning people were accommodating. It was nice that the beach chairs weren't locked up this year and were available when we arrived at the beach in the morning. I wouldn't pick this particular room again, but it is a nice place to stay.

all good , an ice machine would have been nice

The Sliver Sands was a great place to stay. I had other family members on LBK so we would sleep and shower in our room and then spend the day with family. I would only like to see a lighted sign out front. I drove by the property several evenings because the Silver Sands sign wasn't visible at night.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The staff were awesome and responsive to any problems. The pool is nice and well maintained. This is a small complex so the pool is very seldom busy. There are 2 grills next to the pool to use to cook. The complex is right on the beach which is very beautiful. There are several beach lounge chairs at the complex to use. The unit we stayed in only has 2 rooms a bathroom and an open room that contains the bed, small dining table, and a small refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, and coffee maker. Only 1 window which faces the parking lot. The unit was clean and the bed is comfortable but understand you can easily hear through the walls. There is a shared laundry area at the complex which takes quarters. The area around the complex is nice and several places to eat and shop are nearby. This is the 2 nd time staying at this location and have been pleased both times.

Beach with lounge chairs, pool, clean unit, comfortable bed, wonderful shower, great location - perfect. Unit could some TLC and updating.

Our unit was pretty dated and smaller than most hotel rms we stay in, but right on the gulf and a heated pool when it was chilly made it a great choice for a short getaway

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Silver Sands Resort is a lovely area to rent for a vacation get away. We loved the pool and the beach so very much! We will stay here again; but, next time we will rent a larger apartment. #251A is very small; and, we have decided next time we need a kitchen for sure! The walls in this unit are also very thin. We could hear our neighbors all the time. Otherwise, though, this area is absolutely the best location! The beach is gorgeous; and, we were close to Anna Maria and St. Armand's. We love Silver Sands and we will reserve again for sure!!
