Nice place

Evdiently this is THE place for teenagers (parents optional) to come for Spring Break. Security was great about keeping out anyone not staying in the property, but they obviously couldn't keep 15 teens at a time from camping out at the hot tub or throwing frisbees around the pool.

Good stay

Had a good time there. Would have liked to know that there were no condiments in the condo before the check in process. Most of the locations we have stayed before have been equipped with at least salt and pepper and a few things of coffee to go with the coffee maker.

The condo was very spacious and clean. Would really appreciate 2 beach chairs to come with the rental. 20 dollars for a lost wrist band is a little pricey.

Will never return- focused on money. Not the client

Reservation was easy, check in a breeze. After i reserved the place, I got the check in email which then stated I was required to purchase wristbands for everyone in my group at 15 bucks a piece. They told me it was mandatory that we have them to have access to the pool and beach. Then they did not allow canopies ir umbrellas because they want you to rent theirs which are 100.00 dollars a day. No thanks.

The location is good and view amazing. This condo needs and update. The furniture and carpet are dirty and the ceiling is peeling. The fake plants need a good cleaning too. Overall it was ok.

Great Location, Great Place!

We recently stayed with our grown children for a mini vacation and were very happy at Sterling Sands. All three bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, the balcony had an AMAZING view and the common areas were spacious, well stocked and comfortable. The location was terrific! We didn't use the pool as we heading the few steps off the elevator right on to the beach every day. How easy! Also parking was easy and the building is no more than 15 minutes from any store, restaurant or entertainment that you might want. I would highly recommend this place.

Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay started out very miserable. After a day of travel and unpacking, we were so disappointed to discover at 10 pm we did not have linens for the pull out sofa when it was clear via our reservation that we had the maximum number of guests. We went to Walmart to get sheets and blanket. Also, we only had one kitchen wash towel and one dry towel; therefore, we purchased more. Our friends in other units with the lock off had extra linens, sheets and towels. We’ve never had this experience. It just set the mood for the vacation.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Older condo but fairly well maintained. Great view. Amenities covered all the bases. Needs a few minor repairs. Some easy additions like extra towels/paper products/soaps would have been nice. Would stay again.
