Palm Island Resort is a unique vacation hideaway on the west coast of Florida located south of Tampa/St. Petersburg between Sarasota and Fort Myers. The resort offers 100 privately owned villas in “Old Florida” style architecture on a two-mile stretch of pristine natural beachfront which is accessible only by boat or car ferry. When you depart from the car ferry or tie up at the docks, it’s an unmistakable feeling of relaxation as you approach Palm Island Resort. The resort has a reputation as being at the pinnacle of Southwest Florida’s family of coastal island communities.
