Oh no!! After seeing the pictures of Silversands I totally want to get married there!! I love the contemporary, chic feel to the resort. I saw someone's pictures from the resort on TripAdvisor but fell in love too. I wish I could have the feel and look of Silversands but on Maroma beach Maybe we'll honeymoon at Silversands.

Any idea what their nightly entertainment is like? or is it a very quiet resort? Also, what would be the nearest shopping area?
