We’ve been staying at The Palms a few times each year for about 15 years. It’s always a pleasurable stay and visit. And we will continue to stay with them when we come out to the Island.

This resort is pet friendly. That was one of my criteria. It’s supposed to be a non-smoking property. Folks are frequently smoking outside the rooms which I understand is allowed. There was some smoking in a room yesterday that was permeating my room occasionally, but today has been bad. Someone has been smoking in a room all day. It’s tolerable, but unpleasant and annoying. Otherwise the resort is cute and right off the beach. It has a mom and pop feel. The beach is clean. Plenty of sea gulls. The room has a microwave and a coffee maker and a refrigerator and a small sink in the kitchen. There is a table, chairs, a small sofa and a small dresser. I have only eaten at the restaurant once. The first person who approached me was not welcoming (it may have been because of the dogs- but I was in the outside portion of the restaurant where they are allowed ) but the excellent waiter and waitress more than made up for him. The meal was ok but not crave-able. The Caesar salad needs anchovies and lemon- more acid, and shaved cheese. I’m on a budget so I picked up groceries from Walmart and have been using them. Without a cooking surface in the room I have had to be creative. I learned how to make microwave scrambled eggs. I have not been in the pool yet. It is small but it looks inviting. The landscaping is thoughtful and attractive and the grounds are clean. There is a security person at night. The staff so far have been helpful. All in all this is a nice chill spot.

Clean room, good on-site dining and directly on the beach. Bring your own pillows unless you don't mind those poly fill pillows.

so close to the beach!
Hotel was a short walk to the beach, only a couple minutes! It was very clean considering the tracking of sand, the bed was comfortable but the sofa bed not so much. the beach chairs and umbrellas are available after 9 am for a daily rent of 40$. Price was a bit more than we wanted to spend for 1 night but our main priority was being close to the beach.

We come to SPI every summer. This was our first time staying at The Palms. We probably won’t stay anywhere else now! Clean, comfortable, convenient. Parking wasn’t an issue, they were diligent about hotel guests only parking in the lot. Beach was close and bed was comfy.

It was nice that it was very close to the beach, but the hotel’s swimming pool looked small and dirty so I couldn‘t go in.
