Family vacation - Good Stay
Very nice property and good communication from the property management team. The floors were a little dirty but we noticed mainly because we have a toddler who crawls around and picks up anything he sees. Overall the property was clean and well put together. The beds were c

Clean Home and Quiet/Friendly Neighborhood
Well maintained home - appeared fresh and clean. Nice open floor plan. We had a total of four adults (two couples), and it was perfect. The kitchen was well organized with everything we needed. We cooked breakfast and had coffee on the deck. Cooked burgers on the charcoal grill, and ate at the picnic table downstairs. Bug spray was a must, but we didn't mind. Very pleasant outdoors. We brought our bicycles, and road through the neighborhood streets, and passed only a few vehicles and golf carts. We also took a short bike ride to the ocean a couple of times - very close. We watched others walk to the beach. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly, and it felt safe. We would most definitely book again!

Amazing Place
We wanted a quick getaway before the busy fall starts. I found this house and it was perfect! Check-in was super easy because we received a very informative email after booking. The house is super roomy, clean and so close to the beach. The host responds quickly by email. We will be returning to Palm Villa!

Wonderful!
This house had everything we needed, and was in a perfect spot! This was one of the first times we’ve been able to see and hear the waves from the front porch of a rental, because we haven’t ever been on the front row. Even though this property isn’t right on the beach, its location is just right so that there’s a small but clear unobstructed view to the water. Not only that, it’s a short walk, drive, or golf cart ride to the nearest beach entrance. The house was clean, decorated very tastefully, and was well stocked with household essentials. We loved our stay, and would love to return again.
