| Palm Island |
Palm Island is an exclusive community of beach homes on a private island with five beaches. A quiet, safe and carefree vacation awaits you with the best of swimming, snorkeling, diving, yacht charters, watersports, fishing, and tours of nearby islands. Offering solitude impossible to match, a perfect escape from crowded summertime beaches. No cars, no traffic, no cruise ships. Palm Island is your own private island.
ROOMS
Each of the cottages features a wooden sundeck, a living room, a bedroom, and one or two bathrooms and dressing rooms. The bathrooms have a shower, lots of counter space, robes, fluffy towels and a medley of Crabtree & Evelyn toiletries. The two daybeds in each living room can be made up to accommodate children.
The cottages are sited to make the most of their immediate surroundings. Some are notched into the hills and bluffs to catch the breeze and savor the views, most are just steps from the beach. All the buildings are naturally air-conditioned with a combination of ceiling fans, louvered windows, cool terra cotta floors and the ocean breeze.
In place of a telephone, in front of each cottage there is a small bamboo flagpole with a message box. Hoist the yellow flag and a member of the staff (numbering two for every guest) will come in his mini moke and pick up your message. Room service, lunch on the beach, whatever you want. Hoist the red flag, and you absolutely will not be disturbed.
Facilities and Dining
There are two bars and two excellent restaurants, which serve a wide variety of superb international cuisine, as well as local specialties and freshly caught fish, which is always on the menu! Dress on the island is casual. Palm has a little gift shop selling tourist things and some island products.
There are grocery stores on next door Union Island. All of the basic food needs are there. Snorkeling is the favorite sport on the island next to doing nothing but wandering around on the island's 130 acres. Day Sails and private yacht charters are available. Scuba classes and scuba gear are also available.
