Experience a Gulfside paradise at this brand-new townhome, featuring 2,300 square feet of modern living space. Highlights include two private balconies, a private two-car garage, and a roomy loft for flexible sleeping space. This unit is in the building closest to the boardwalk. As part of the Palmilla Beach Resort & Golf community, enjoy sun-soaked days at the expansive on-site pool, groomed beaches, and links-style golf course.

Comfort awaits in the inviting living area, detailed with a full-size sleeper sofa and a 65” smart TV with Spectrum cable. The sleek kitchen is configured with ample counter space, stainless steel appliances, and handy extras like a blender. Sample appetizers at the kitchen bar, then sit down to a home-cooked meal at the dining table.

This three-story home sleeps up to 10 guests between three bedrooms, the loft, and a sleeper sofa in the living area. All beds are equipped with new smart foam mattresses. Make yourself at home in the tranquil master suite, appointed with a cloud-like king bed, a 50” smart TV, and an en-suite bathroom with a tub/shower combination (this bathroom is also accessible from the hallway). The second bedroom sports a plush king bed, a 50” smart TV, a private covered balcony, and an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in closet, a double vanity, a water closet, and a walk-in shower. The third bedroom holds a queen bed and an XL twin-size window bed, while the loft has two twin-over-twin bunk beds, an XL twin window bed, and a 60” smart TV. The adjacent third bathroom is fitted with a double vanity, a water closet, and a tub/shower combination.

Step out for fresh air on your two private balconies, one of which looks out over the adjacent golf course.

Your VIP wristbands provide access to the incredible resort amenities, including two elegant resort-style pools that are heated during our winter season (open year-round). Rent a private cabana to experience the ultimate in poolside luxury. You’ll also enjoy food service and air-conditioned bathrooms across the boardwalk at the groomed private beach! During the summer, poolside cabanas, golf carts, beach chairs, and umbrellas are available to rent via Guest Services.

For on-site dining, you’ll find REDS Patio Bar, Black Marlin Seaside Grill, and the Agave Poolside Cantina.

Great Stay at the Wild Octopus

We loved our stay at The Wild Octopus! Upon arrival it was clean, there were plenty of towels in the bathrooms plus towels for the pool. There was ample space for parking cars, golf carts and space in the garage for our beach gear. We felt comfortable in the house and had plenty of space to relax. The location was great, halfway between both pools with easy access to the dock. We will definitely stay here again.

Disappointed

Not too happy with our stay. The place was not super clean and did not have all the amenities that it did last year (ie: kuerig, hardly any bath towels, trash bags, no laundry detergent). Property itself has taken a beating over last year. Dryer did not work well & there were several straws and other plastic items melted onto the element of the dishwasher. Couldn’t sit outside due to all of the construction. Sad to spend this amount of money for the experience we had.

Need new housekeepers

Was not very clean. Only “looked clean”. Hairs everywhere. Popcorn in chair cushions. Dead cockroach in shower. Upstairs carpet not vacuumed. Dishwasher still had dirty dishes in it.

it was almost perfect except for no one picked up trash from the previous stay...

the property was very CLEAN (our #1 priority at every stay) and exactly as pictured. There were plenty of towels and kitchen utilities for us to cook every meal at home. They even had a small portable charcoal grill which was a very pleasant surprise because we definitely made use of it at the beach. The check in process was easy and straightforward. The walk down to the beach was a short 10-15 minute walk and if you wanted to take your car instead of renting a golf cart, it's only a 5 minute drive. Everything was almost perfect EXCEPT the garbage bins located in front of the garage were not emptied prior to us getting there so we were greeted by an army of flies at arrival. I called guest service and was told maintenance would pick up trash the next day but that never happened during our stay so we ended up having to set all our trash by the garage door. We were very bothered being surrounded by flies every time we came in and out of the house that I almost gave this property 3 stars but i felt bad because everything else was great.

Very Kid Friendly

I will rate any home 5 stars that leaves toys for kids! We furnish our rentals with them as well. The home is lovely, very spacious. House was clean, all the sheets were filthy though. Like very dirty. You could tell they hadn’t been washed after many sleeps. Kitchen was very well furnished. AC worked great! Loves having access to the garage as well!

A review of a condo at Palmilla Resort

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I would certainly recommend this property. We had a 3 bedroom, 3 bath which gave us plenty of room and privacy. The condo was well appointed and equipped and very clean. It was well maintained. Our only complaint was that lconstruction was taking place the entire time beginning at 7 am even on Saturday and Sunday. It made the front balcony unusable. The backup noise on the trucks was very loud. Beach access was good and rental of umbrellas was easy.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall a good impression. The unit was very clean and very well equipped. Kitchen had all required appliances. The dishwasher is very quiet so one can do the dishes and not be disturbed.On the negative side there is a bit too much construction noise.We encountered a couple of cockroaches.The dishwasher was plugged in to an outlet that was not powered. We re-plugged it to a working one.The garage doors were opening unexpectedly so we had to trip the circuit breaker for the night.

Wonderful Townhouse in Great Resort

Overall, our stay was amazing. Property was clean and ready for us when we checked in. The turnkey support was amazing and quickly responded to our texts for questions that we had. Only things to consider when selecting this property is that the area around the location is under construction so you have a lot of workers and equipment in the area during the week. Also, the townhouse is a middle unit so you will hear neighbors if they are loud. In our case our neighbor threw a party on Friday night and we heard the music till around midnight. Overall great experience a d would book this Location again.

Great Townhouse at Palmilla

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First time away since Covid. Townhouse was nicely furnished and near the beach and community pool. Only two small inconveniences. Garages are basically for golf carts, so your car probably won't fit. Had to unload in the rain. We unplugged the power cord for TurnKey's tablet. Must have received no less than 15 emails to our address telling us the tablet had low battery. That was weird. Everything else was good.
