To address concerns regarding insects screens are fitted to all bedrooms. We recommend closing bedroom doors at all times when not in use. There are ceiling fans in the bedrooms to keep guests cool and blow away any insects. Portable fans are available for the living areas. Mosquito nets are provided for use over some of the beds if requested.
Silver Sands does regular fogging of the property for mosquitoes which is a great help in reducing their population.
