An Island Getaway at Palm Tree Villas

Location: Most reviews highlight proximity to the beach and access to nearby restaurants, shops, and amenities.

Given the high praise and ranking on Tripadvisor my expectations were a little high, and I was not let down. This was our fourth trip to the island. In the past we had rented houses, but since we were only staying four nights on this trip we decided to try a hotel. The central location on the island allowed for quick trolley trips up to Pine Street and the pier as well as down to the public beach area. The beach was an approximate 3-4 minute walk, just a couple hundred yards or so to the west of the hotel. We stayed in S24 which was an end unit, the perfect size for two. The bed was comfortable and there was little noise from the adjoining suite. The room was up to date and well equipped. The room also has a private patio area around the rear. There was occasionally a couple people in the pool, but for the most part it was unused. The grounds were very well cared for. We experienced one slight problem during our stay when the A/C unit in the room decided to start dripping water on the floor. Mike the maintenance guy was on site within the hour and took care of the issue quickly (clogged drain). The hotel also has wagons, beach toys, umbrellas, and floats all available for your trip to the beach. We would definitely stay here again!

Lovely property, clean and so close to the beach! Do need a car, for food/dinning. We'll be back.
