I knew that The Palmwood would be special because of the overwhelmingly positive reviews it has consistently received over the years..and it's *all* TRUE. THIS is a very special oasis. My husband and I arrived at nightfall and woke up to paradise. The richly brewed coffee was ready to go at 6:30 with organic half and half and local teas. We grabbed a steamy cup and explored the 6 acres of gardens, sculptures and the pool. At 8:00 we were greeted by two other guests in the dining pavilion and had an awesome discussion while enjoying a hot breakfast creatively prepared with locally sourced ingredients. Eddi makes unforgettable baked goods, protein dishes and plentiful fresh fruits and veggies. She can also accommodate all dietary needs! The rooms were comfy and tidy, adorned with fresh flowers and high quality linens. Beach towels and a carrier are provided for excursions to nearby beaches. We were lucky enough to be able to stay 6 nights so we had the pleasure to talk to both Eddi and Stephan. Both retired from "day jobs," they've traveled the world and have created a space where they would want to stay. We stayed in the East Room the first 3 nights and although small, there is also a private hot tub, refrigerator with chilled water and glasses and an outdoor shower. There is also a beautiful bathroom with an indoor shower with locally made soaps and lotions. The bed, a queen, is very comfortable and the evening breeze is sublime. The Upstairs suite is huge and there is a lovely private outdoor balcony which we lived on. There is a king sized bed but that room can get warm in the afternoon. (We pulled the blinds before we left in the morning and housekeeping opened them for the afternoon breeze) We didn't need it because in May because the trade winds cool the room down, but as it heats up don't hesitate to ask about the portable air conditioner that is tucked away in the room. The suite has a jacuzzi tub, huge walk in shower also with locally made soaps, lotions and fresh flowers. There is strong WIFI through out the property which was helpful because I attended a morning class online during my stay.
