Our second long stay at this location. Host is great to work with and the location is perfect. We’ve had guests both years and they love it just as much as we do. Beach is close, the little garden next door is great for kids, and the neighborhood is quiet.

Thank you! Always a pleasure having you and your guests in our home.
Great family party house. Lots to do, they have beach chairs, umbrellas, towels etc. Very clean and attention to detail. Must bring all food, drink and toiletries. We loved it!
The house has great open space inside and perfect outdoor space for a family to comfortably enjoy. The beach is beautiful and just minutes away. We had all ages in our group and everyone had a wonderful trip

Cheryl it was our pleasure to have you and your family in our home.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay on Palm Island. I had not been back in 15 years, and returning was truly special. The property itself was exactly what we hoped for: clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for an easy and enjoyable stay. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a serene and memorable getaway. We look forward to returning in the future!

Thank you Brittny. We look forward to hosting you again.
Great place to stay at a reasonable cost. Only real issue was the internet hardly works so we could not get our baby monitors connected. Other than that, bring what your need and you should enjoy the house.

Thank you for the feedback Russel. Sorry to hear the internet wasn’t to your standard. I am happy to let you know we have upgraded to the Starlink Internet service and hope to host you again and earn those two additional stars for your review.
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at Mari's beach house. Once again, the house was the perfect home away from home for us. We plan to visit again next year!
Everyone loved the ping pong table, volleyball court and being so close to the beach. You’re close enough to walk to the beach but we drove our rental to the public parking area on the side of the road. The outdoor shower is a very nice amenity after a day out on the beach before going back into the house. Make sure to bring your own towels, dish soap, laundry soap, bath/ shower soap/shampoo, charcoal, charcoal lighter, AND toilet paper, paper towels, GARBAGE BAGS. It was a lot of fun. The first day I had to call hostess just past check in time (4:18pm) to get the code on the door changed and she was most delighted to help. Light switch in master bathroom was broken. Everything else worked as it should.

Wonderful house!
Really enjoyed our stay here. The house is very nice, and the beach was quiet and relaxing !
My family really enjoyed our stay here. The beach was wonderful and easy to get to. We rented a golf cart from the resort which made it nice to get around the island. We will definitely try to come back and stay here.

Happy to hear your stay was fantastic! Look forward to having you in our home again.
Our stay at Maria’s place was a great time! She was easy to contact and had everything we needed. Nice open concept for prime family time! We will definitely return one day!
Close to the beach. Plenty of room for guests. Fun “garden” area next door where we became great friends with the tortoises. Already booked for next year. Owner is great to communicate with anytime. Quiet island!

We have been blessed with realizing our dream and now we would like to share it with you. Our home is immaculate, comfortable, and available to all who search for a memorable vacation.
Why they chose this property
Don Pedro is the perfect little piece of paradise.
What makes this property unique
8 miles of paradise (no exaggeration). There are not many beaches left in the United States where on any given day you could be on the beach and not see another person for hours. Swim, fish, snorkel, shell, or just simply read your favorite book. The five minute ferry ride transports your vehicle and passengers and it is what makes the island pristine and exclusive. Once you drive off the ferry, simply park your car under the home and relax. Put on your sandals and walk, bike, or ride a golf cart to the beach.
