We booked four nights at the Palmetto due to a last minute emergency with our condo. The entire time we were there our rooms were never serviced. No towels, toilet paper, trash emptied, bed linens changed, etc etc. We tried to call multiple times but never got an answer or anyone to come to phone. We even stopped in the lobby to ask for items but there was nobody at the desk or in the area. Very disappointing stay. We love the area but the hotel and service was lacking. We considered canceling but they said there were no refunds or cancellations allowed when we first checked in.

Plus a sand playground for little ones and toys to where other people left behind for others to enjoy . Great place .. we will definitely go there again .

Looking at the picture provided in the Expedia ad it looks like this beautiful resort on the beach. It might be I don't know because the building I stayed in was a dumpy Motel 6 looking building across the street. Apparently Palmetto shows the nice picture without letting you know you're staying in the dump building. So, if you decide to make a reservation double check which building you're staying in.
