If you are looking for a quiet getaway, this is your place. Located right on the beach. Beautiful heated pool. Everything I needed for my 4 night stay. I took a 3 mile drive to Coquina beach and took the free ferry out to the pier. Sarasota is a short drive south and there were lots of cute shops. Great place, I would definitely return.

Proximity to beach was a plus, as was the availability of chairs and umbrellas.

We decided to get away from the crowds and traffic on Anna Maria Island this year and head south to Longboat Key. The beach is amazing, the grounds are well-kept, and the other guests were quiet and polite. We only have 3 suggestions: 1) If you are staying for longer than one night, we suggest you rent a one bedroom unit with a lanai. The hotel room unit is on the small size, and there is nowhere to dry swimsuits and beach towels. We wll definitely upgrade to a one bedroom next visit! 2) There were not enough functioning beach umbrellas for all the guests, and 3) VRBO advertised daily maid service, which is not the case. Other than these issues, we had a marvelous time, and we will definitely stay again (but we will bring our own beach umbrella with us next trip!)

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our room was very clean but smelled horribly of disinfectant. We had to open the door and turn on the bathroom fan for ventilation. Our bed was comfortable and the resort was calm and quiet. The property was well maintained. The day before out checkout we received a list of chores that we had to complete before we left. We were required to strip the beds and place our towels and linens on the floor; we also were required to empty the garbage, and put the bag in the dumpster. Was this not part of our $100 cleaning fee?

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect location on Long Boat Key, right on the beach with heated pool and just down the street from Harry's deli where we got beach lunch to-go several days. The accommodations are modest and resort is smaller, but everything you need for a few relaxing days in the Florida sunshine. Great value and would choose to stay here on our next trip to Long Boat Key.

Unit was good but ti y ( no sink or stove) vs other units we've stayed at at silver sands, a little hotelly vs resorty. Parking was tight. Residents were fine. Desk person, Margaret was great. Received a notice by email from rva that we didn't read til after we’d left regarding the check out process ( strip sheets , remove garbage ,etc) that was not part of our check in notes or in the unit, so we hadn’t done.

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pictures and description are better than the real thing. Black mold in the shower was gross. The only window has a hurricane shade coving it, thus the room was very dark and unable to get any air moving through unit. (not hurricane season) There were no beach umbrellas as advertised. Many of the beach chairs were broken and discolored and should be replaced or thrown away. This is one of the few units on property that still has a window air conditioner which was rather inefficient and our weather was in the 70's. The beach was great and the pool seemed clean and heated. The manager could have been more helpful with requests for soap, towels etc. You really need a car at this location as there is no public transportation and uber/lyft are hard to come by in this area. I would be interested in returning to area, but am afraid there may not be many rental choices. Walked to RVA office to explore options in future and was directed to another office at other end of island. (they didn't know we walked) Silver Sands is more if a motel rental than a resort.
