AVON, OH, United StatesPalm Island is heaven
Left on 05/01/2013 for a stay in April 2013
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.

Left on 10/16/2012 for a stay in September 2012
We had 36 woman on this retreat and all were extremely happy. We did have one room without a functional shower in one of the bathrooms but by the time I found out about this, they had made arrangements and just allowed for everyone to use the same shower. It was a great experience and we are already working to see which group we would like to bring there next.

Lutz, FL, United StatesGreat Location
Left on 09/26/2012 for a stay in September 2012
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. -
Winter Garden, FL, United StatesPerfect Gulf Beach Escape Experience
Left on 09/19/2012 for a stay in September 2012
This is the 4th time we've been stayed at Palm Island Resort and look forward to the next visit. The accomidations have always been clean, comfortable, nicely decorated and the kitchen fully supplied with everything needed to cook what you bring to eat or drink. 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+.

When you drive off the ferry, you are in a different world - great beach, great view and comfortable accomodations for a very reasonable price. Third time there and plan to return.

Deland, FL, United StatesBeautiful island getaway
Left on 08/07/2012 for a stay in August 2012
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.

LaGrange, KYWhat a getaway!!!
Left on 08/07/2011 for a stay in July 2011
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!!!!

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. -

CINCINNATI, OHWe were disappointed with...
Left on 03/15/2010 for a stay in February 2010
We were disappointed with our unit. Furniture was sparse, no dresser in the loft bed room and only one bedside cabinet(the other side of the bed had a t.v. tray). There was no table or desk under the stairs for cameras, magazines, etc. Most of the furniture was original(20+ years old)and in bad shape. The carpet had spots and several snags. The lawn chairs were old and peeling and there were only 4. The vacuum cleaner was very hard to use and the broom worthless. One of the closet doors in the loft did not open and the door on the terrace did not latch. The beds were comfortable and the bedding very nice. The kitchen was very nice, although there was no space to store food. The bathrooms very very nice. The location was great with an awesome view.

CEDARBURG, WI, United StatesWe have been coming to PI for the last 20 years!!!
Left on 04/21/2009 for a stay in April 2009
Obviously we enjoy our time at PI. However we continually experience issues associated with the units we stay in. Washers/Dryers not working, Light fixtures not working, carpet that is torn, stained, door handles falling off, furniture from the early 80s that has not been updated and in disrepair. For $619/night I think we should expect better.....
Granted you have done a good job with the grounds, pool, and are now working on the exteriors but each time we have come down the units we stay at are a shoot. How is it that I pay the same for a wonderful well maintained unit and for a dump that hasn't been updated since 1984 when you opened????????

WINTER PARK, FL, United StatesBeautiful Place!
Left on 09/25/2008 for a stay in September 2008
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! -

LUTZ, FL, United StatesAwesome location, great resort, not so great condo
Left on 08/15/2008 for a stay in August 2008
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.
