Reviewer Comments:
Let me start by saying we LOVE Silver Dunes. We have been renting condos at Silver Dunes for our family vacations for more than 10 years. The addition of the activities throughout the week was awesome, especially for our son. This year my husband decided to splurge and rent one of the beach front units in celebration of my retirement. We looked at the units online at the beginning of the year and selected C 1203 for our 2018 stay. We were so excited! We have stayed in units in the penthouse and D sections and felt this unit would surely blow them all away. When we arrived we were instantly disappointed. The unit was poorly cleaned. The bedroom end tables had sticky residue all over them and even a ring where the lamp had sat unmoved after a spill or something. While we unpacked our son sat on the master bedroom floor building legos and came out with a clump of hair stuck to his creation. When one of his balls rolled under the couch he also found food and a baby toy that had been missed by the cleaning crew. The tubs/showers and baseboards in both bathrooms had mildew around the edges. The unit was also out of date and in need of upgrades. The carpet in the bedrooms was stained and bleached in spots. The ceilings had obviously been repaired and then only partially repainted in the master bedroom. Of the 5 television remotes found in the unit only 1 would work any of the televisions. None of the windows would stay open so there was no way to enjoy the breeze coming off the gulf or the sound of the ocean. Finally, the best part of the unit, the patio, wasn't even usable because the slightest amount of rain flooded it due to the tile not being sloped towards either of the drains. Water from the units above drained onto the patio as well.We will be returning to Silver Dunes next year, but moving back to a different building.
