  Had a great time. Silver Dunes is a nice condo complex with so many activities. The pool was nice and the beach is a short walk. Our condo was great!

  Melissa S from Heyworth, Illinois recommends this vacation rental

  Short walk to the beach, beautiful views, even saw dolphins from the balcony! Pool was so refreshing after a long day at the beach and the tennis/ basketball courts looked brand new! Unit 43 is very clean and comfortable with plenty of space and it felt just like home. The beds were so comfy! Loved everything about Silver Dunes and Unit 43. The best part is that Silver Dunes is a smaller complex so the beach is never crowded like some of the others we saw and everyone was so friendly! Close to The Track, Big Kahunas water park , several restaurants and shops. We would definitely stay here again!

  Cara C from Ozark, Missouri recommends this vacation rental

  Unit 43 was mostly clean. There were some areas that looked as if it could have been cleaned better. A few light bulbs were missing in the bedroom ceiling lights.
  Kitchen sink faucet was loose and continued to allow water to run. Grills were a mess and had not been cleaned it what appeared to be a long time. Trash bags would pile up on the stairs a few times during our week stay.
  Overall stay at Silver Dunes was nice. However, these items that I mentioned begins to add up on the list of things that need maintenance. We have been customers to Silver Dunes for over 20 years, our family enjoys the units. But some items need better attention.

  Michael G from NEW JOHNSONVILLE, TN recommends this vacation rental

  We have visited Silver Dunes since 1974 with our boys and now, with our grown grandchildren. The condo was very complaints. We were disappointed in the beach service. Our 2 sets were right on the line between Silver Dunes and Sun Destin. It was very crowded and people from Sun Destin continually set up in front of us. We will request, next year, to be placed somewhere else. All in all it was a great trip.

  I have been to Silver Dunes 30 or more times over the years. I cannot wait for summer to come each year so I can visit again. I have stayed in a lot of different units. Most units are very up to date on their décor. Good job Silver Dunes.

  Linda W from Greenville, KY recommends this vacation rental

  Overall, my vacation was a wonderful experience. My main complaints would be that by the time Thursday rolled around the garbage out front by the office and the garbage that goes into the chutes on each floor were filled beyond capacity and the garbage was stacking up on the concrete floor below the chutes. I think that more effort needs to be put into living up to the reputation that Silver Dunes has maintained in the past in this area. The room was clean; however, I think a little more effort could be shown in this area also. Silver Dunes has always been like a second home to us. Please strive to keep it that way in the future.

  a guest from PORT ALLEN, LA recommends this vacation rental

  It was a beautiful location to stay. We loved the private beach access and the staff went over and beyond to help us. We already booked for next summer, but we are staying closer to the beach.
  
  For this unit I would recommend a fan with a light kit in the living room. It was too dark at night even with the lamps on. The fan could circulate the AC too. The outlet behind the couch didn't work. I can't remember if it was the top or bottom plug in. Other than that, it was nice.
