We LOVED our time at Silver Sands Villas, the grounds were awesome, clean and very well kept. The villa was clean, comfortable and perfectly fit our needs. The villas are so close to so many great little restaurants and bars and right across the street from the beach, it was awesome. Everyone at Silver Sands Villas was very helpful, welcoming and very kind to our dogs.

We will be back...

Thanks for a great time!!!

Found this little paradise by "accident". On the other side of the street is the beach- easy to walk. The Hotel has little cabanas which all have a little kitchen in there. Rooms are nice and really spacey. The pool is really warm and you can grill at the canal and diner under the big old trees.Staff is friendly and helpful.
Will definitly return there....

I visited for 2 nights and got my "R&R". The Silver Sands Villas is a group of cottages; much like you would see in Key West; Sanibel Island; etc. "CLEAN ROOM" was my need and it was fulfilled along with a very reasonable rate for a "beach area". This is not a Holiday Inn; Sheraton; Hilton; etc. where everything is "fine". What you will get is an exceptionally clean villa; and excellent service, if needed, from the owners. The beach is across the street via a 30-60 second walk; many restaurants in the vacinity from $-$$$$...oh, did I mention eating dinner and watching the sunset. A couple of miles North from the Villas is Times Square with many shops, food, and a family friendly beach. Oh...and the Silver Sands Villas are also PET FRIENDLY; and, there's also a pet friendly beach! The Villas pool is heated and very clean. There are beach chairs for the guests to use and much more. Also, a washing machind and dryer is on the premises. I could go on and on; but, I will be back there to enjoy more of the Silver Sands and the Ft.Myers, FL area. Another tip is that there's fishing, shelling, Thomas Edison home and lab, and other sites. Besides efficiencies, there are one bedroom and two bedroom villas.

I ended up at Silver Sands due to a Groupon for 2 nights for $120. Upon arriving it turned out I didn't actually book my room, but they had a room available and honored the Groupon. The place is right on the main street as you enter Ft. Myers Beach and it's across the street from the beach. You're a short stroll from the pier, which has incredible sunsets!
The room was very nice with the amenities of an apartment, everything was bright and cheerful and it put you in an island mindset. The pool area is clean and well-kept. Various different options available as far as food goes. All in all, I was pleasantly surprised because I was sure there was a catch with the price I paid. Will certainly give it another visit when I have more time to enjoy the area.
