Silver Dunes is a great, family friendly complex, no crowds, and right on the beach. We have stayed in many units over our 30 years staying at SD. This particular unit is nice and updated but desperately needs a new mattress in the master bedroom. It not only had the typical body groves but also sank a lot in the middle when you laid down. Everything else was wonderful!

The rental was well situated to the beach (about 50 yards, as stated). The walk to the beach was nice and mostly grass, so no shoes were needed. The grass courtyard was lively, and children of all ages played in it. The unit was clean, stocked, and well-maintained.

Love Silver Dunes...a grand old lady...took my children here in the 80âs...now my grandchildren for their first beach trip! We had a ground floor condo which was perfect for 3...ages 12 months to almost 5. The great green space, lovely patio and short walk to the best beach were perfect for everyone! My only complaint about my unit were the beds. The mattresses slept like back in the 80âs. I have a massage scheduled! The unit was adequate, somewhat dated but comfortable for 2 ladies and 3 girls! We will be back next fall break.

Upon arrival, discovered the TV in the living room did not work. After a quick call, the tv was replaced the next day. Appreciate the prompt service on getting a replacement. The only improvement opportunity would be the cleanliness of the patio area. Just behind the wall was food and pizza crust thrown on the ground.

Outstay was perfection! Silver Dunes provided the perfect vacation spot for our family. We rented 3 condos in A and my sister rented 3 in D. So our families were across the huge, open green space. It was perfect for our many toddler grandchildren to play together while parents and grandparents could keep a watchful eye. With the pool on one end and the beach on the other, it was easy to enjoy either. The condos are great. They are not âbigâ spaces but out time was spent outdoors most of the time. We stayed in A104, 105 and 106 and they were all just great. Iâve learned after coming for several years to bring some of my own sharp knives from home, and my girls bring an InstaPot and Crock Pot because we donât eat out with so littles. The location of Silver Dunes is perfect with every retail store you might need within 1-2 miles. Itâs one of the few locations that is not a high rise which would not work for our young grandchildren. So easyTo bring your beach cart and easily transport all your gear to the beach. We LOVE it and will never stay anywhere else!

I have consistently stayed at Silver Dunes with my family as well as coming in the fall with friends. I loved every part of my stay. However, this year many things have changed. The grounds were overgrown and not maintained, the grass was very tall outside my sister's unit. Several lights were out on tennis courts. No towel exchange with no washer and dryer in my unit. Only one set up of toilet paper that was ONE PLY which no one would use anyway! New deposit twice as much as before with chance of losing half $$. Prices going up and service going down. Very sad to see changes!Did not rebook for first time.

Unit 106A was perfect for our group. It is centrally located, close to the pool and the beach. The electrical outlet in the bathroom was not working, called management, went to breakfast, returned and it was already replaced. You can't ask for quicker service than that. The only complaint about our trip, the pool was so cold. It said it was a heated pool but it was not. Loved our stay at the Silver Dunes and will return.
