This unit has a true beachy feel with the decor and great views of the beach. Super clean and accommodated our family of five easily. Property could use additional large skillet and sauce pans for cooking in unit. The location on the property is very close to the stairs that walk down to the beach. Staff in office are extremely helpful and nice.

The view was fantastic. I have one recommendation. I had my 94 year old mother with me. The showers could use some mounted safety handles to assist people getting in and out of the shower.

Beautiful, relaxing, a step away from the gorgeous sand beach, excellent beach service by George. A snowbirds paradise. Our family has been coming there for years and we appreciate the attention and service for the snowbirds!

Reviewer Comments:
So much to like about Silver Dunes, location, the beach, George, the wholesome family feel, proximity to the water, all wonderful. However, some units are much nicer than others so be careful which ones you pick. It would be nice if all owners were held to a standard so guests would be assured of quality surroundings. Some of the units are very very tired.

The view was nice but, the condo was not up to par with cleanliness. It had issues with moldy ceiling in a bathroom with the full beds, broken top to living room blinds, icemaker not working and last but, not least which was ductaped and last but not least the condo smelled bad
Location, location, location! Enjoyed our stay the view of the beach was breathtaking. Freezer needs to be fixed it would of been nice to use it for storing ice. Definitely will stay here again with our family of 4.
