Ground floor by pool and arcade!
NEWLY RENOVATED Located in the penthouse building, this is a large 2 bedroom 2 bath ground floor unit that sleeps 6, and opens up to the pool and our luscious green courtyard with a short 75 yards to the beach. This unit features king bed in master bedroom, a double bed in guest room as well as a set of bunk beds. Kitchen is fully stocked with dishes and appliances.
Beach Service – If you didn’t pre-reserve beach chairs, just stop by the beach hut or call the Excel team at In addition to chairs and umbrellas, Excel offers kayaks and paddle boards for rent, as well as an assortment of snacks and drinks. Tennis, Basketball, Pickleball, and Shuffleboard – Forget your gear? No worries, you can check out rackets, balls, and more at the front desk at no charge! Grilling Out – In the busy months of spring and summer, many families opt to grill out rather than go out. We have eight charcoal grills available. There are several seafood markets nearby, including Blalock’s which is just a block to the west (p.s., their tuna dip is a must try!). Fitness Center – Did you know we have a fitness center in the Penthouse building? Just stop by the front desk to borrow the key. Family Activities – There’s always something fun on the itinerary at Silver Dunes: • Annual Easter Egg Hunt in the Courtyard – Easter Sunday, 9 am in the courtyard • Scavenger Hunts – Throughout the Spring – for children of all ages! Just stop by the office to pick up your scavenger hunt necessities. Once you’ve collected everything, stop back by the office to pick a surprise from the Silver Dunes treasure chest! • Movies in the Courtyard – Bring a picnic blanket, your beach chairs, and join us on Mondays at dusk throughout June and July. We show a different family-friendly movie each week. • S’mores Nights with Live Music at the Pool –Wednesday nights are awesome at Silver Dunes! Throughout June and July, the firepits will be out, s’mores roasting, and tunes playing!

This is our 3rd year staying here. We had 6 other families join us this year. Everyone had a great time. We love how kid friendly Silver Dunes is. The amenities are great too.

My Family and I stayed at Silver Dunes for the third time this Spring. The ocean was calm and almost no seaweed in site until our last two days of our stay.
Heads up, ice is very important for keeping your beverages cold. Please give attention to this and revert providing this service to your guests! Very frustrating to have only one operating ice machine for such a large place!!

We love this property! This was our second year coming here. We choose a ground floor unit this year and loved the convenience. Our unit had a few issues that were handled well by maintenance staff and management. We really appreciated the quick response. We have already booked this unit for next year! We have 2 other family friends renting different units next year with us, can’t wait!!Thank you so much!

Great vacation as usual. Been coming to Silver Dunes for 20 years. Always clean, relaxing, love the community atmosphere. Only complaint is the almost $500 for 4-chairs for the week with the new beach service. I realize things have gone up, but the new service is just too high and even though they offer drink service , which I didn’t utilize, iwill do it by day next time , not for the week.
