The entrance to the villa has a sand room where you can place sandy shoes, coolers, chairs, etc... keeping the villa floors as sand free as possible. 2 of the 3 a/c units did a wonderful job of keeping the place cool and regulating the humidity in the air. All in all we highly recommend Shadow Palms & would definitely stay there again! ##### Adrian F.

It was clean and good location for us however the air in the living room/ Kitchen wasn’t working but we were able to eventually cool the place down by turning down the air in the two bedrooms. ##### Renee H. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Jesse O. 4 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Nice and simple Unit was clean and has a nice layout with central kitchen and family room and bedrooms and either side. Property does show better in pictures than in person. Very basic. No view. More like a small townhouse property with I believe 7 units. Bring your own toiletries, no soap, shampoo, etc... Beds were very comfortable and a big plus for cleanliness. Would spend more money to be closer to beach and view. ##### Jesse O. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Danielle R. 7 Jul 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good place to stay with a pool. We loved that the place had a pool and accepted pets. The other guests staying did not pick up after their pets at all. We were having to take ours across the street because there was only a tiny patch of grass at the entrance. The outdoor cooking patio was perfect for grilling and relaxing at the condo. The laundry room was a great convenience. Our second bedroom for our parents had a portable AC due to the AC being out and we were told after we checked in that it was broken. The second bedroom also had a strong mildew scent in there. They slept in the living room for the most part. We were there to play on the beach and shop so didn’t bother us too much. I would stay again but just hope the AC worked. ##### Danielle R. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Wendy F. 6 Aug 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Smell of Mold and Mildew was very overwhelming. Was disappointed in this place. The smell of mold and mildew was overwhelms. We were unable to stay more than 1 night of our 3 nights stay that was already paid for. Ac in master bedroom was broken they had a window unit with duck tape around it that still did not keep that room cool. Dust all over the walls bugs in the bathroom and kitchen. Did message the host never heard back so we left and found somewhere else to stay. ##### Wendy F. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tiffany S. 4 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Villas The only complaint I had when I booked it off Vrbo I paid for the price listed. But then got an email from the lady saying the price was wrong and I owed more. I went back and forth with her. Respectfully, neither one of us were snappy with each other. I contacted VrBo because I knew the price paid/shown was the price that had to be honored I was right. And the lady apologized for any stress and honored the price. She was very nice throughout the whole process though. The place was great, clean and nice! Needed more AC power in villa 1. Pool was nice. Grill area was cool. Pool had stuff for kids like floats and corn hole. We would go back again and bring another fan if we had Villa 1. One room was definitely a lot colder than the other. Location was great, we were close everything. ##### Tiffany S. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris L. 12 May 2025 ##### Chris L.

It truly is a comfortable home. After arriving late on our arrival day, we enjoyed setting up our “home”. We were blessed w/good friends that came in on Sunday & also wanted to plan another trip w/their families. This was a much needed time to relax after a death of a beloved family member. ##### Judy Z.
