    This was our 19th year going to Palm Island for a staycation and this property did not disappoint. It accommodated six of us very comfortably including our pet. We enjoyed the beach, kayaking, golf cart cruising for ice cream and exploring, having our boat right behind us and we loved the layout of the home. Kitchen had all of the necessities, beds were all very comfortable and there was so much beach gear it was nice to leave ours behind to lighten our load. Owner comm was great. We will be back!

    What a dream! I was initially worried about the pool being closed, but it was not even a noticeable thing to miss when we were on the island! We rented the golf cart to explore and get ice cream at the local shop! Played hours of pickleball and never missed a sunset! My young kids loved how shallow the water was to be able to play - we also loved shelling all day and just relaxing together. The set up with the lagoon on one side and ocean views on the other was incredible. Forever grateful for our time on the island! Diane was an incredible host and made staying on the property so easy. Thank you!

    We loved everything about our vacation here! The house was clean and perfect for our family of 7. The kayaks, and paddle board were a bonus. We saw a baby dolphin and her mother in the lagoon and were able to get close to them using the paddle board. We found hundreds of sharks teeth on the beach during our week stay and beautiful shells as well. There also was a wagon which was a big help bringing kids toys and beach chairs back and forth to the beach. The beach was not crowded and we often felt like we were on our own private beach. Because of the way the house is situated looking over the tennis courts, you are able to see the beach and gulf out the front of the house and the lagoon out the back of the house! We were fortunate to meet the host Diane who is a lovely person and very accommodating. We are already booked for next year! Can’t wait to return !!!

    Our stay at Island Time at Palm Island was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Diane’s property truly lives up to its name—relaxing, beautiful, and exactly what we were hoping for. The home was spotless, thoughtfully decorated, and fully equipped with everything we needed to feel comfortable and at ease the moment we arrived.The location is ideal—peaceful and private, yet close enough to everything we wanted to explore. We especially loved spending time enjoying the outdoor spaces and soaking in the laid-back island atmosphere. Every detail of the property reflects care and attention, making it feel like a true home away from home.Diane was a wonderful host—responsive, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making sure our stay was exceptional. Communication was seamless, and her local recommendations added so much value to our trip.We left feeling refreshed, relaxed, and already talking about when we can come back. We would highly recommend Island Time at Palm Island to anyone looking for a memorable, stress-free getaway.

    Such a great vacation for our group! The house was so nice and very well laid out. The host Diane was very kind and accommodating. The location had great accessibility for both fishing and beach. The beach itself was clean with so many sharks teeth. We even saw 3 seaturtles at night laying their eggs. We will be back next year, 5 star experience!

    Super clean and charming island home. Bay( lagoon that leads to bay) to Gulf of America!The location of this property is absolutely perfect. The owner of the property was super responsive and communicative. Upon arrival we found a really clean and spacious rental. We especially loved the huge fridge! Normal sized fridges and 8 adults on an island is always problematic. No worries there!

    The house was beautiful. It was a great location and could see the beach from the screened in porch. Very easy walk to beach. House comes with great beach supplies so if flying it’s nice to still have chairs, beach towels, boogie boards, ect provided. Owner is wonderful and provides and abundance of information on the house, island, services, and surrounding area. Our family had a wonderful time.

    We had a wonderful week at this house and would definitely stay at one of this host’s properties again. We were not aware that the pool and tennis courts were unavailable when we booked (due to last fall’s hurricane damage) but the listing has since been corrected and it did not negativity affect our stay. The only downside for some might be the current state of recovery with piles of sand, some scattered debris, and lots of construction crews. We were not bothered by any of this and enjoyed watching this cute island rebuild while we were there.

    The name says it all. Once you step foot inside this rental all your cares disappear. All the conveniences of home but but an incredible island beach footsteps away. Excellent communication with owner who provides you with great info to make your trip all it can be.

    Everything was as described and the gulf view is wonderful. Beach is literally steps away. The bed we used was comfy and showers were hot with strong pressure. Kitchen is well equipped with both a keurig and coffee maker. Diane is a good communicator - answered questions promptly and an excellent host. We rented the brand new golf cart and enjoyed cruising around the island and up to the resort restaurant. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return.
