Great Family Retreat
The property is very clean and as described. The dock is new, the home is very well done and completely updated. We stayed with 4 children and a dog and could not have been more comfortable. Diane was the best from check-in to check-out. Walk to the beach or sit in the hammock on the back porch. Palm Island is always relaxing and enough to do to never be bored.

This place is dreamy!
So I may not have understood that I was booking a house on an island when I first did it, but I wouldn’t change it for anything! It’s a $55 round-trip ride to get over to the house, but it’s worth every penny!! We landed in Sarasota Bradenton, stopped and got groceries on the way to the house, took the ferry over and didn’t leave for days. The beach is completely private, because it’s on an island. The house is absolutely gorgeous and fit our family of six with room to spare. The teenagers loved all of the space and being able to walk to the pool and the beach, the little kids loved how warm the pool was and searching for shells. We were one of just a few families on the beach and it was so relaxing and peaceful. The house has everything you would need from all of the dishes to a washer and dryer to beach towels to beach toys and extra bedding. There wasn’t anything that we lacked while we were there , every little detail is covered and it’s just perfect! Would recommend this to couples or larger families. The lower level was also a great time as the kids walked out on the dock while my husband grilled, and we laid in the hammock. The host was immediately responsive and so incredibly kind. I would recommend a golf cart rental as that added a ton of extra fun together. We will be back!!

Loved everything!
We had a great time! The accommodations were perfect for my family of 5, and the host was outstanding. She catered to every possible need. Her communication was really, really great. I admit I dropped a ball in communication early on, but she stayed with me. She was totally cool and understanding. Also, the house was exceptionally clean, and well-stocked with things to do.

About the host

Host profile image
We live in New Jersey and have been traveling to the Gulf Coast beaches for our recreation and vacations for over 25 years. The boating is fantastic and our time with our family has created a bunch of fond memories for us. Most Florida beaches are overbuilt and congested – it's hard to find a beach with so few people and so underdeveloped. We chose Don Pedro Island (Palm Island) for the natural beauty and 'Old Florida' feel. This chain of islands just may be the last true Florida beach you can walk 7 miles of a quiet shell filled beach and see more birds than people. We also liked that there are no beach bars and no high-rise buildings. It is the best of Old Florida, natural, unspoiled and a genuine paradise.

Why they chose this property

We decided to purchase a home here for the unspoiled beauty of the island and the area in general.
Palm Island has stunning scenery, minimal crowds, and good old peace and quiet.
It is an old Florida 'beach town' that reminds you of how Florida looked many years ago, without the huge high-rise condominiums and massive hotels clogging the beach and blocking your views. There are plenty of local 'home-grown' shops and restaurants and the fishing is some of the best in world. The beaches are fantastic and the boating is world-class. If you are looking for a great family area that is close to everything, but far away from the congestion, traffic and noise, you'd be hard pressed to find a better place. The only way to get on and off the island is by a 3 minute car ferry ride. Having no bridge to the island allows for a semi-private atmosphere and keeps beach going traffic to an absolute minimum. The island is all residential other than the resort area at the north end of Palm Island which offers a restaurant, deli and ice cream shop and small convenience store. Most all of the island traffic is by golf cart.

What makes this property unique

Staying on the island is not for everyone. If you like lots of places to shop, tourist attractions, beach bars and chain restaurants, this isn't the place for you. On the other hand, if you are looking for uncrowded and long deserted stretches of beach, great kayaking, fishing and swinging in a hammock under some breezy palms, this may be just the place. It's for a couple or family that wants some serious down-time ... a place to unplug and recharge your batteries and enjoy some great family time. Our house is pet-friendly with wood or tile floors throughout, a private outdoor shower (which is great for pets!) , entertainment area. You'll also enjoy a private dock overlooking the lagoon. Our landscaping is all Florida native and offers a very private, resort-style environment.
