EXCEPTIONAL Large and Private Villa in Palmetto Dunes Resort!! 5-Star Reviews!!!

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (251)
"This was our 6th year coming to the island and our 5th at this condo. We look forward to our annual island vacation very much and 2024 did not disappoint! The large deck for animal and bird watching is still our favorite part (not to mention laughing at the golfers trying not to hit the ball into the water). The location is perfect, with a short bike ride to food, the general store, activities, and of course the beach. The owner is very nice and always prompt with messages. No issues to report,...
