Pros: Silver sands has a great location on the beach. Awesome ocean view from our patio. Great location to restaurants. Cons: Very difficult to get a hold of front desk. Tried for over a week and finally had to call RVA and they had the front desk call me back. Once there still no answer at front desk. Very frustrating.Also, at check in and through out our stay our room had a VERY strong odor. Not sure if it was a cleaning supply or pesticide but not good.

Reviewer Comments:
The condo is cute and has a great beach and pool view. Unfortunately, not everyone follows the no smoking rule, and during our stay, more than one other guest smoked and sent smoke wafting into our lanai. Very unpleasant. There is no enforcement of the no smoking in condos rule. The bed was comfortable, beach towels are ample. The biggest turnoff was that ALL of the flatware, plates, bowls, and glasses had dried food all over them and greasy fingerprints. Apparently, the previous guest ran the dishwasher with no soap, and the food remained. Housekeeping either didn't notice or didn't care to notice and didn't have clean hands when placing in the cabinets. We didn't report this until the day we were leaving, because who wants to ruin their vacation by having the first thing they do go complain about dirty dishes? We arrived at 5:00 pm on Friday and I highly doubt someone would have come at that time. We did not want housekeeping to come and disturb our very first day by handwashing all of the flatware, bowls, plates, and glasses. Also, the inside of the microwave hadn't been cleaned and the inside of the bathroom cabinet hadn't been cleaned. All of this to say that we don't plan to return. Far to much money to pay for a week to have dirty parts of the condo. The rest of the condo was clean.
