  Remote and relaxed. Not a lot to do but thats the point, right? Beach/Boat your choice you have both. 5 trips and will keep coming back to this little escape.
  
  Note - the rentals are individually owned and managed by the Resort. Each one is appointed differently. Website does a good job of the descriptions.

  We have been visiting Palm island for the last 5 or 6 years. It's a great vacation spot for friends and family. We enjoy: having easy access to the beach and pools, your own private kitchen, washer/ dryer in unit and grills in pool area. It's also fun to drive around in gulf carts (rented from Coconuts). Each unit is privately owned so the conditions and level of updates vary. Unit #1324 has great views and is close to the pool, but it could use some updating. The carpet is worn and the washing machine barely works, besides that no complaints!

  Great 3-bedroom, 2-level unit overlooking the beach and Gulf of Mexico. Adjacent to a pool, and a short walk to the beach. Unit was immaculate. Didn't bring our tennis racquets, but several courts were a short walk away. It was too windy to kayak, but we did that during a prior visit and had a great time. Restaurant on the property had an excellent variety of meals. Food was well-prepared and reasonably priced.

My husband, my 3 sons and I shared communion at the foot of the cross that evening and attended the Sunday service! We were blessed! As always the island was beautiful, weather was perfect and the staff helpful! We love Palm Island! It is truly set apart!! We'll be back as soon as we can!

  Robert G from Avon, OH recommends this vacation rental

  We have stayed at Palm Island since it opened in 1983. We love the place and can hardly wait to return next year. We have had three generations of our family there for vacations. My daughter was married there - we rented a house (No. 8) for the wedding. This year, check-in was not pleasant. We had a unit assigned at the time of reservation (2422), one of several we requested so as to have a sunset view from the balcony. At check-in, the unit had been changed due to the owner being in the unit. We were then given another unit without the requested view, with the explanation that there was no guarantee of any specific unit. The attitude of the front-desk person was kind of a "too bad" attitude. On pushing the issue, she "found" another available unit for us, which was totally satisfactory. Two recommendations for your reservation staff: First - if you must change an assigned unit, you should advise the renters of the change BEFORE they arrive, and make an effort to change to another unit with the requested view, WITHOUT having to be "pushed" to FIND another unit. Second, I understand the owners' privilege to use THEIR unit, but it seems to me that if they make certain dates available for rental, they should be committed to that availability.
  
  Hopefully, you can make some changes in the reservation system.
  We LOVE the Palm Island Resort.
  
  Bob and Diane Gradisek

  a guest from Lutz, FL recommends this vacation rental

  My husband and I and another couple stayed at the Palm Island Resort. Our condo was right on the beach. The livingroom and master bedroom faced the gulf and it was beautiful.
  
  The ferry was very easy to use and the resort was easy to find. The beds were super comfy. The condo was in great shape, everything was clean. However, upon our arrival, we noticed sugar ants in one of the guest bedrooms and LOTS of sugar ants all over the kitchen. We had to keep all of our food in the refrigerator so that ants wouldn't get to our food.
  
  Additionally, on the second day of our stay, the power in our building went out (for no apparent reason, there wasn't a storm or anything) and was out for about 7 hours that day. The resort worked to fix the issue but that is a long time to go without AC in the summer, not to mention dark bathrooms, etc.
  
  We went kayaking two days and the area for kayaking is absolutely beautiful. We kayaked through the mangroves and it was wonderful.
  
  A golf cart rental was included in our stay, which was nice because the resort area is quite large. We had to get our golf cart replaced 2 times because of battery issues, which was slightly annoying.
  
  Overall the weekend was fun and relaxing. However, we would have preferred to not have the power go out, not to have to switch out golf carts several times, and not to have to deal with ants in the condo. We purchased this trip as a living social deal so I can't complain too much because it was really cheap. We probably wouldn't go back and pay full price after the issues encountered, though.

The staff has always been very accomidating from our arrival to our departing. The ocean water is very clear and shells are abundant. The only point of caution is the abundance of sand fleas so bring a replelant. Our family gives it a score of 10+.

  This was our 2nd stay in two years -- each for a full week. Stayed both times in a 3bdrm 3bath. This year though we had an excellent time, the villa/cottage was not as clean, mainly the carpeting. We reported problems with some bugs and were 'provided' a can of spray. The maintenance dept should have taken care of this issue. There were more than enough dihes etc, but a large frying pan or griddle would have been great. Overall though we had a great time and will be back next summer.

  Quiet, beautiful location, comfortable. This is the perfect getaway. Just enough to do without feeling like you have to go-go-go. Marti was a great help in getting our reservation placed. Highly recommend!

  Tina B from LaGrange, KY recommends this vacation rental

  This place was a paradise. The condo was amazing. Everything we needed from kitchen equipment to beautiful sunsets. The room was very clean aside from a musty smell when we first arrived (nothing a little Fabreez couldn't handle)must have been from not being used in a little bit of time. The office staff was very helpful. Marti was my fav. She helped me with all my hundreds of questions from the start of the reservation process months before our trip. If you want to get away from the world, this is the place to go. No cars on the island, no bright lights just quiet relaxation. And the shells... there were so many untouched that every one was a gem. We easily found 18 sharks teeth, (prehistoric) sand dollars, (which we left in the ocean) and tons of shells. Dolphins were a visual daily. The view was so incredible that from the second floor balcony it looked like you could see the curviture of the earth. What a getaway!!!!

  We had a terrific week at the Palm Island Resort. The 3 bedroom unit had an incredible view of the beach and was conveniently located close to the pool. We would stay at the resort again in a heartbeat!

  Tally V from Tampa, FL recommends this vacation rental

  Very nice week away to recharge your batteries. Resort and RumBay's were the best.
  
  The beach and pools were fantastic! The gulf breeze and sunsets are magic!
  
  However, we went to Leverocks via the water taxi for my wifes birthday. The water taxi ride was great, but the food quality at Leverocks was very poor (great people and service, but food was over priced and not so good).
  
  So we rate Palm Island Resort with a 9 out of 10.

  I have been traveling to this spot yearly since 1995 and have found it to be the best vacation deal and location in FL. LOVE it. But don;t book the Frat Party in the future - they were NOT the type of guest I wanted to be around for a relaxing week.

  CROSSINGS COMMUNITY C from WINTER PARK, FL recommends this vacation rental

  Our group had a fabulous time! The only comments I would offer would be this:
  The golf carts were a little expensive (especially since they don't run on gas and they were necessary for getting around). I would have been nice to at least receive one golf cart complimentary to for our group.
  The restaurant on the island didn't have a very good section of meals.
  
  The condos were spacious and comfortable. The island itself was beautiful and extremely relaxful! Thank you for the great service from all employees, especially the bellman who assisted our group in many ways!
  
  We look forward to returning!

  Poor condition of Golf Carts, we had to turn several back in, the resort needs to properly maintain them. We did a lot a walk & pushing of Golf carts. This was unacceptable. All else was good. Thanks Pat R.

  a guest from LUTZ, FL does not recommend this vacation rental.

  We have spent many vacations at the resort and have enjoyed them a great deal. This years condo had awesome views and a great location, but the inside decor and basic furnishings left a lot to be desired. The master bed was old and showed obvious signs of sagging even with the bed made. The carpet needed to be cleaned and on our last evening we were greeted by several roaches.
  Overall we had a great time, but on our next visit will request a different unit or verify that refurbishing has been completed before staying in this condo again.
