Upstairs in the kitchen, living area with vaulted ceiling, and dinning room two decks provide a great place to enjoy a view of the gulf. The Bay side screened porch, also on the upper level, provides a great place to enjoy any evening while surrounded by tall pines and palm trees. The large kitchen is completely furnished with dishes, microwave, pans, utensils, coffee maker, blender, toaster, etc. You can enjoy the view of the Gulf while preparing your gourmet meal in the kitchen. The upstairs has its own full bath and laundry area with washer and dryer. The living room is equipped with cable TV/VCR, stereo, and a pull out sleeping sofa. A second living area is downstairs and is also equipped with a cable TV/VCR.

The downstairs has four large bedrooms (2 of which are masters), 2 baths, and the living area. Each bedroom is provided with a queen size bed. One of the master bedrooms has a 3rd cable TV, while the other master bedroom has a PC computer with Microsoft Office XP and dial-up connection to the Internet.

Our guests have easy access to the pools and tennis courts provided by the Plantations. We have several bikes, beach chairs and beach toys in our storage. You are welcome to use them when you stay in our house. The natural beauty that surrounds The Palms Retreat offers all sorts of entertainment: Enjoy watching the birds during the day with binoculars. We provide a handbook so that even the beginning bird watcher can learn about birds. Also watch the planets and stars with our telescope in the evening. An early morning stroll at the beach is almost a guarantee to see dolphins put on show for you in the Gulf. It's not uncommon to see them swim up as close as 150ft to the shore, and you will certainly be impressed by their power. The sidewalks in the neighborhood offer a great opportunity to jog, bike, roller blade, or walk. The island is also a great place to catch up on your fishing, either from a boat or the coast. We are located a 5min walk along the beach from the rocky canal at the Northwest end of the island that is known as a prime fishing spot.
