“5 Star Resort”

Hands down, the best few days we have experienced in any vacation. So sad that Beryl had us evacuated and we couldn’t finish out this paradise dream vacation. I am actually writing this review while in Jamaica, and it’s absolutely awful compared to Palm Island. The only downside now is that no other vaca will compare.

“Palm Island - A Paradise in the Grenadines”

Stayed the first week of June 2024 with a group of about 20 friends and had the best time. Staff was incredibly accommodating, fun and charming. Wonderful service.

Stayed the first week of June 2024 with a group of about 20 friends and had the best time. Staff was incredibly accommodating, fun and charming. Wonderful service. The food was excellent and varied enough for a week's stay, and I was able to have my fill of fresh seafood. Drinks were included, and Johnny kept us hydrated with delicious libations. The aquamarine waters offered fine snorkeling experiences filled with sea life, accessible from the white sand beaches in front of the resort's two restaurants. First night at the resort, a green sea turtle laid eggs next to the bar. Really enjoyed biking around the island and participating on the catamaran excursions (including swimming with the sea turtles off of Carriacou!). There's a nice pool as well if the ocean isn't your thing. I didn't partake, but many in our party scheduled massages and most went back for a second treatment - rave reviews all around. Felt like we had the place to ourselves (I think there's only about 50 beds or so), but also met some wonderful travelers from around the world. I would visit again!

This was quite simply the best holiday EVER! We are so thankful we got to visit this paradise for our honeymoon, it was everything we wanted and more! We traveled from London Heathrow into Barbados and then were met and guided through to our next (small) plane to Palm Island (aka a slice of paradise) From the moment we arrived we were greeted off the boat by Katie and her team with a rum punch and a warm welcome. The team that work here really make this 5* as everyone is so welcoming and kind, Johany was amazing at making us cocktails every night at the bar, and Niarshair, Oliver, Shaquille & Glenford (to name a few) were just amazing, always smiling and checking in with us, but honestly there wasn’t a single person on the island that wasn’t polite and friendly, we felt so safe and looked after the entire time which were very thankful for. We stayed in a beach front apartment which was directly on the beach allowing you to hear the sea to drift off. Our room was spacious and clean with all the amenities we expected. We loved that all meals were served to you (no buffet in sight!) and lunch was a particular favourite of ours as we liked to sit directly on the beach while sipping a glass of wine! They even had a French province, Rose which was heavily! Food choices were fantastic, we stayed for 10nights and nothing was repeated in the evenings, always a good selection and a form of live music to accompany. Breakfast & lunch menu stayed the same, but there was such a good selection we didn’t get board! The French toast with rum butter was INCREDIBLE! And for lunch some of our favourites were the seafood pasta & palm island burger! We loved how personal it felt staying here, not crowded at all, always enough sun beds for and a lot of the time it really felt like it was just us on our own island which was exactly what we wanted! We loved being able to ride bikes around and explore coves of the beach which felt like untouched havens! This place really is wonderful and we’re already trying to plan for when we can return! Lastly, a huge thank you to Katie, you really helped make our time on the island special! All the little touches never went unnoticed, we were so sad to leave! And really do hope we get to return one day! x

After having to cancel a proposed holiday in 2020, we finally arrived on 17th May. The journey was an experience in itself and the small plane from Barbados to Union Island is thrilling!! I was slightly anxious but it was wonderful We got off the hotel boat to be greeted by Alaska and Alex. Fellow visitors were greeted as family as they had been there frequently. We were in a Palm View room No 28 which was right opposite to the swimming pool. The Restaurant and Bar were very close and the other Restaurant not too far away. This holiday was to celebrate my Husband's 70th birthday and on the day all staff he saw wished him a Happy Birthday, which he did not expect!! I organised a birthday cake for him and 7 of us sat down to dinner, which was really lovely and he did not expect this!! We had exceptional food , all very tasty, Johnny, John, Nick and Dea'Jean who has just joined, were great in the bar always smiling and they all know your name after a day as do the rest of the staff. We did some trips, while we were there, Hubby had a few hours fishing but he said next time he will do the deep sea fishing trip!! We also had a few hours with the very knowledgeable Seymour and i loved all the history of Union Island. Recommended. I have never done any Catamaran trips but we went on the Yannis for the Sunset .Cruise. Drinks and snacks added to this trip and the view of the sunset was wonderful. I could not bring myself to use the bikes at the resort but Mr H had a lovely time exploring the island. I walked round with him one early evening, something I don't usually do but it was really interesting......I would love one of the private dwellings we passed on that walk!! Something we did not expect to see was a mummy turtle coming up on the beach and laying her eggs.... Finally I would like to mention new found friends from both the UK and the US. So many of them visit time after time and I can understand why. I must mention Alex and Alaska who were just wonderful. They make sure everyone is having a great time and do not lock themselves in an office. I will mention the customer serve from everyone. Nothing is too much trouble for any of them. So many thanks to the bar staff, Johnny, John, Nick, Dea 'Jean and of course William and Shaq, Glenford, Hulda, Camille, Chef Baka, Ayesha for making the tasty birthday cake, and all the others including the lovely Joy who looked after our room. Thank you, thank you all. Much love to you all. Nice to meet Katie on our last day.....we will be back Rita and Clive
