From the reviews
Palm Island Resort is fantastic! The Island 🏝 is amazing ! The beach has the best sunset! The customer service is beyond good!. We are son grateful all the resort staff!.
The resort was great! It was very clean and the staff were so helpful and friendly. The beach was beautiful and also very clean. I am giving it 4 starts because there were no recycling containers on the island.
Our family stayed @ the O’Brien Family rental villa (#3624) on the beautiful Palm Island Resort property for the July 4th weekend. This very comfortable one-bedroom unit was wonderfully appointed with all the modern amenities, & thoughtfully decorated with a beachside theme.
Getting married at Palm Island Resort
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
