  a guest from Redwood City, ca recommends this vacation rental

  If you are looking for a quite and peaceful vocation on the beach, the palm island area is highly recommended. The water is warm yet peaceful, and the staff are very friendly here. Not to mention everything we found in the unit just make us feel so relaxed and unwinded.
  The only thing to keep in mind is in case you need to drive to TPA and take a flight after the vocation, give yourself more time as the traffic congestion could be worse than expected.

  Our stay at Palm Island was fantastic, 10/10. The resort is absolutely beautiful, staff are so accommodating, kind, and very professional. We only live 10 minutes from the resort, but it always feels like we are far from home. Like I said, it is MAGICAL PARADISE. Our condo was perfectly located to see the ocean, and very well decorated in coastal theme. It was clean and had everything we needed. I always recommend Palm Island as a great place to escape to relax. Wish we didn't have to leave, but we will be back. Keep up the good work Palm Island staff and thanks to all who made our getaway special!!

  Hate to let the cat out of the bag but this unit will not disappoint. Quite the contrary, clean, tastefully decorated, comfortable furniture, perfect location coupled with attentive property managers. The best part was the porch furniture. While most rental units have simple plastic banded chairs or rod iron furniture, this unit has comfortable upholstered chairs and couch. Thanks Dawn and John, we have already booked our return.

  Palm island is our favorite vacation spot! Everything on the island was perfect. Every staff member we met were extremely kind, especially the ladies at check in and out! The only negative comment would be the carpet in our unit. It has multiple stains and definitely needs to be replaced. I didn’t want to walk on it with bare feet.

  Sara/Greg F from Alpharetta, GA recommends this vacation rental

  We had our wedding here on March 14th and it couldn't have been any better. The room was facing the beach and very close to the Restaurant and other facilities. There was plenty of room in the suite and it came fully equipped with everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The staff was wonderful and took care of everything that popped up. Our wedding went off without a hitch and luckily we were able to get it in before the COVID-19 crisis which shut everything down the following week. The only complaint I had was the transportation on and off the island which is not affiliated with the resort and unreasonably expensive. Other than that, it is the perfect place for your wedding, weeklong vacation or just weekend getaway!

  Gorgeous stay at Palm Island, we have been coming for years. There are just a few updates in this specific apartment that were a bit disappointing for the price, but overall, the staff, the resort was spectacular. The ceiling fan in the guest room was super noisey, so we could not use it during our stay. It was nearly impossible to use and try to sleep. Very loud. We turned down the AC to make it cooler instead, but when the AC turns on, it blasts quite loud/seems to be an older AC unit. We had difficulty sleeping the first night due to the noise. Also, we could hear every step and noise from the upstairs guest. They returned home quite late and could hear them walking through every room from the guest bedroom. There was also no salt in the apartment. We bought groceries and didn't expect to need to buy salt, as this is usually provided. The apartment had pepper but no salt. Again,these are small things but sometimes its the small things that can make your stay the best. Other than those items, we loved this apartment, the view was beautiful. The staff at Palm Island are always so kind and go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. This apartment is starting to feel a bit dated, we probably wouldn't stay in this specific one again, but overall, we truly enjoyed our weekend. Marty on the front desk is great, the bell men were very friendly, the beach, spectacular! Thank you

  Coming to Palm Island is like going back in time. The laid backed atmosphere with no cars is precious. Miles of sand and gulf are amazing. The view from the porch, priceless. We haven't been here in a few years and it seems unchanged. It causes you to slow down and enjoy nature. We will definitely return to Palm Island.
  We do think that they need to add one more restaurant to the Island and that the food does need some improvement. The condo was clean and fresh. The fan in the bathroom needs repair. The light on the front porch is very annoying as you are trying to sleep and the shades are drawn the one bedroom is still very light with it.
  Overall still a great get-away from winter and the hectic life. We love Palm Island Resort.

  I rented a one bedroom villa on the first (second floor) and was surprised at how updated it was. Looked like it had not been lived in since renovation. Fortunately, I didn't need extra services but when I was checking out the bell boy was at my door in a matter of minutes to take me and load all my baggage, etc, While I was there there was a barbecue with great food and music. All for free. I would recommend staying at Palm Island Resort an time. Gorgeous beach!

  We have been vacationing & taking long weekend trips to Palm Island since 1984. It's our go to place for relaxation, fun, and down time. It's like being on a cruise - you can do as much or as little as you'd like.
  A perfect couples retreat or a family destination. No matter how booked they are, it always seems to feel like the island experience is all yours & yours alone.

  Everything was really nice. The beach was kind of far from my villa but was a short walk. The map from the website made it look really close. Everyone was nice a kind and willing to do anything for you. The boat captain with the beard is a jerk. Had a comment to say because I had a cigar in my hand. It was not even lit. Not sure why he needed to say out loud as I was driving off the ferry to say "We have an ash try behind the wheel". I guess he has issues.

  If you want to get away and do nothing or if you want to be active this is the place to go. We loved it because there is NO CARS, NO NOISE, and it is so relaxing just riding the golf cart and going to the pool and bike riding. It was like being on a Tropical Island but yet not far from home. We loved it!

  Palm Island Resort is a great place to get away for a little while. You take a car ferry to the island and then once at the resort, you either walk or take a golf cart everywhere. There is only one restaurant on the island but the full kitchen in each condo and grills allow you to take it easy and cook at your own pace. The best thing about Palm Island Resort is the beautiful barely populated beaches. You feel like you have your own private beach.

  We recently spent a week at Palm Island Resort ... our fifth visit over a number of years ... and continue to consider PIR to be the perfect getaway for our family. Our idea of a perfect beach vacation includes sparsely populated beaches and great shelling ... both criteria were met and surpassed! We're already planning next year's return and counting down the days ;-)

  Douglas S from Oshwa, Ontario recommends this vacation rental

  It would be hard to imagine a better place than Palm Island to visit with a family. Access to the island is by ferry, and only those who are residents, guests, or providing services make the crossing. There is also a boat launch for those who wish the Resort for dinner. Once you reach the Resort you park your vehicle, and all traffic in the resort is by bicycle or golf carts (both rented on site). The children enjoyed Captain Red Beard craft sessions and his show, tennis lessons and dolphin cruise. As laidback as you wish, extremely friendly atmosphere, yet you can be as busy as you wish with tennis, swimming, beach activities, walking, or just socializing.

  Everyone was GREAT. We had one bad experience. We planned to go to Leverocks for our anniversary dinner on Wednesday evening. The water taxi operator was somewhat rude and had planned to close the taxi service early, which meant we wouldn't have had a ride back. We didn't go and that ruined that one experience! I can not compliment Debbie, Dan, CJ and others enough though on their kindness and professionalism. We even ran into Dan at breakfast on our way home. Great guy!!

  Although I Love the Island and the Resort, my overall experience was not as nice as it has been in my past 2 visits. Otherthan the bell hop; the staff are extremely nice, cooperative and should be commended for their customer service.

  We loved Palm Island Resort. Our only problem came on our last day. Our package came with late departure on our last day. Apparently there was a booking problem and we were asked to check out early (12:30). We understand mistakes, but neither the golf cart transportation nor the cleaning people appeared at 12:30. I had to call to ask for transportation. Due to a cloudy AM, time to pack, etc. we lost one day of our stay at Palm Island. That was a real disappointment.
