The Palms 4 · Veteran Discount · Bikes & Pool
VRC16-000097
2BR · 2BA · Sleeps 6 · Pet-Friendly · 1 Block to Gulf · Heated Pool (4 Units) · King Bed · 2 Bikes & Wagon · Beach Chairs Included · Gas Grill · 10% Veteran & First Responder Discount · Washer/Dryer · Free Trolley
The Palms #4 is one block from the Gulf in Holmes Beach — the same quiet four-unit complex as #3, with the same heated pool framed by tall palms and the same dead-end residential street that keeps the beach uncrowded even when the rest of the island is busy.
This unit sleeps six — two more than #3 — with a king bed in the master suite, a queen bed in the second bedroom, and a sleeper sofa in the living room. The master has an ensuite bath. The second bedroom has full use of the second bath off the hall. Both bedrooms have their own TVs.
The complex is set up for beach days without the logistics. Two bikes and a wagon are included. Beach chairs are provided. A communal gas grill sits poolside for evening cookouts. The heated pool is shared with just three other units — private in the way that matters. The free AMI trolley stops nearby. Publix and Walgreens are a short walk.
The kitchen has granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and everything needed for full meals at home. A full-size washer and dryer are in the unit.
A 10% discount is available for veterans and first responders.
Pet-friendly. Parking for two vehicles. One-week minimum stay.

Wonderful as always!!! The owners (Bonnie and Bruce) and Island Vacation Properties Management are so accommodating and make you feel like family. If anything needs attending to they are there to get it done. I would always recommend this property to family and friends and you can’t beat the location.

We really enjoyed this property. Very quiet and private setting.....yet only 70 yards to the beach and you can also walk to Publix and some shops. Very clean and great management company. The unit has a great storage closet with bikes and goodies for the beach. This unit is also fully stocked with all the needs you could think of for the kitchen etc.

Home is perfect and so close to the beach. Great location on the island too. Storage shed has everything you need for the beach, including 2 bikes. Owners have thought of everything. They go above & beyond. We have stayed twice now and will be back again. Highly recommend!

Truly exceptional! We enjoyed everthing about this place, perfect for a family of 4-6, condo is decorated nicely, and literally has everything you need! The storage closet downstairs has tons of beach stuff! The beach access is a short walk away and once you get to the beach its no big deal if you forgot something because its such a short walk. We will definitely be staying again! Another plus is the owners are outstanding and the nicest people ever!

I loved, loved, loved my stay at the Palms. I felt at home from the moment I stepped into the door ` which was my "AHHH" moment. The unit was clean, cozy and fully equipped ~ including the storage. It's located one block from the beach and retail shops, and the ice cream was an extra added treat! I wouldn't hesitate to stay at the unit again! Thanks Bruce and Bonnie (*-*)

Reviewer Comments:
Wonderful experience all around. The condo was immaculate and perfect for 3 adults (although it could fit 4 comfortably). One of our favorite things was if you have unopened items you can leave for the next people. We were welcomed with a fridge full of waters and tasty beverages. Bruce was excellent to work with and extremely responsive. We will be back next year.
Loved being so close to the beach, Publix, drugstore, & the Creperie, and it was really nice to not be on a busier street like Gulf Ave. Equipment closet on first floor with wagon, nice new chairs etc. was very convenient & appreciated. Great to have pool towels provided too. Kitchen needs a deep clean, and there were no serving dishes but overall was well-equipped for a short stay. Disappointed that complex l pool was not cleaned/better maintained, but still enjoyed sitting on the pool deck. Overall property was pretty clean, but my daughter & I both have pet allergies & you could tell that the couch & LR furniture was not deep-cleaned after recent long-term stays by pet owners. Helpful to have W/D in unit but location in master bedroom closet was awkward & left little room to store suitcases, shoes etc.

Everything about our stay was perfect. When we first arrived the air was not functioning properly. We were worried since we arrived on a holiday, however, someone was out and the issue was resolved within 1 hour. We can't wait to go back.
