Sol Mar Villa

We returned to Sol Mar in 2026 after a previous stay in 2023, both for 9-10 nights. We have stayed in 5 different houses during our 8 annual visits to Silver Sands. Sol Mar has a larger than avg pool, great views from the pool deck and gazebo, nice house layout. The staff this visit was Ms Ava (same as '23) and Ms Miriam (new to this house): delicious meals, clean house, laundry upon request. They were great, and I expect will get even better as they work together more.

Knocking off a couple points in hopes that management makes a few reasonable improvements, in line with other houes we've rented: 1. Showers did not have adequate hot or even warm water. 2 adults + 3 kids...enough warm water for 2 quick showers then the rest had only cold water. We mentioned to the staff, situation did not improve. We have not had this experience at other houses. Uncomfortable and not ideal at this price level. 2. Sol Mar should institute a policy to have staff gather used beach towels and provide fresh ones each day, which is the process we've seen at other houses. No need to wash everyday, just collect/dry/rotate. It's a better experience for guests and helps staff keep track of towels during the stay. 3. The bath and beach towels could use an upgrade. They are motel quality; thin, short, and bath towels shed. My wife and I agreed to share this feedback while at Sol Mar. After returning home, we received notice from the property manager that the staff could not find one towel so we would be charged $15. Minor offense of course, and maybe mildly offensive, but we had to laugh given points #2 and #3 above (i.e. they didn't keep track and no towel there was worth even $15). We paid, and asked that management apply towards better towels for future guests. We will definitely return to Silver Sands and we might return to Sol Mar.

The owner is very responsive and helpful. The staff on site looked after us very well, and cooked delicious meals for us. The property is very clean, and the interior is very tastefully decorated. Comfortable beds, and a nice pool with patio.

Perfect location with a beautiful view of the sea. A clean and wide sandy beach, good access to the water, pleasant atmosphere and few people on the beach. It felt like being on a private beach. A very comfortable and spacious house.

Location

Internet was sporadic. Only one tv out of three worked. Water pressure was an issue. Towels were not changed during the entire weekend.
