This resort is pet friendly. That was one of my criteria. It’s supposed to be a non-smoking property. Folks are frequently smoking outside the rooms which I understand is allowed. There was some smoking in a room yesterday that was permeating my room occasionally, but today has been bad. Someone has been smoking in a room all day. It’s tolerable, but unpleasant and annoying. Otherwise the resort is cute and right off the beach. It has a mom and pop feel. The beach is clean. Plenty of sea gulls. The room has a microwave and a coffee maker and a refrigerator and a small sink in the kitchen. There is a table, chairs, a small sofa and a small dresser. I have only eaten at the restaurant once. The first person who approached me was not welcoming (it may have been because of the dogs- but I was in the outside portion of the restaurant where they are allowed ) but the excellent waiter and waitress more than made up for him. The meal was ok but not crave-able. The Caesar salad needs anchovies and lemon- more acid, and shaved cheese. I’m on a budget so I picked up groceries from Walmart and have been using them. Without a cooking surface in the room I have had to be creative. I learned how to make microwave scrambled eggs. I have not been in the pool yet. It is small but it looks inviting. The landscaping is thoughtful and attractive and the grounds are clean. There is a security person at night. The staff so far have been helpful. All in all this is a nice chill spot.

We come to SPI every summer. This was our first time staying at The Palms. We probably won’t stay anywhere else now! Clean, comfortable, convenient. Parking wasn’t an issue, they were diligent about hotel guests only parking in the lot. Beach was close and bed was comfy.

The Palms is a hidden gem!! It’s very simple if all you’re looking for is to sleep in the room and shower but well worth the stay! The restaurant has great breakfast, lunch and dinner! Robert the bartender and the servers are great! They also have great suggestions. You have a beach access right there that’s easy and with chairs and loungers. I highly recommend!!

We booked this hotel because it's pet friendly and its near the beach. We wanted to be able to enjoy as much time on the beach as possible. This location did not disappoint. The location - this place is located right on the water. It was very easy for us to get all of our things and spend all day at the beach. There is a restaurant and the food was very delicious. We ate there twice during our stay, blackened mahi was good. The parking lot is small, and it can get a little crowded since people will go there to eat, that aren't guests of the hotel. We didn't move our car much during peak times, so we were not impacted by that much. Rooms - our room was very clean when we arrived. We booked a suite room and it was all we needed. Bed was comfy, plenty of outlets around the bed to charge up, big fridge and a microwave. The decor was very plain, but thats not a negative. Pet Friendlyness - there is a charge for your pup to stay. Everything was very pet friendly. They are not allowed in the restaurant, but they can sit you near the pool to eat, which our dog loved because he got all the attention from the kids playing in the pool. One of the waiters was very friendly and my dog immediately became bff's. Wifi - there is Wifi in the rooms. This was the only issue for me. I had to hop on a work meeting and I struggled to connect to my work. I ended up using my phone as a Hotspot and barely got by. Keep that in mind if you need to work remotely. Closest star b's is 15 min car ride
