PARKING
You have plenty of space to park your cars in the paved driveway. The gate slides open to enter the driveway.
GUEST ACCESS
Guests have a private driveway and private access to all amenities. Check-in is touchless via smart lock - your unique code will be provided in your check-in instructions.
The property shares its sprawling 5-acre grounds with Iona Cottage, a 2 bedroom & 2 bath home, launching soon. The mature tropical landscape ensures both spaces feel private and tucked away. Traveling with a larger group? In the near future you can book both houses and your group gets the run of the entire Estate while still having your own separate spaces! Message us directly for more information.
Please note the pond at the back of the property is not accessible to guests.
TRAVEL INSURANCE
We highly recommend purchasing travel insurance for your stay in case of illness, injury, or other unexpected events.
SECURITY CAMERA
There is one outdoor doorbell security camera on the property facing the front walkway. There are no indoor cameras and no cameras facing the backyard.
We are excited to share Iona Palms Retreat with your family or group and know you will love it as much as our family does! We are always available by VRBO message or call whenever you need us and are determined to ensure you have an unforgettable, 5-star vacation.
