We stayed at the Palms Retro in "The Bad Boys" room and found it to be fun and very comfortable. Wes & Cindy are awesome and so willing to please. I would go as far as saying that they exceeded our expectations. Clean, neat, and love the continental breakfast in the fun dining room. Can't wait to get back. Thanks... More

Wes and Cindy are the best! Took a motorcycle ride to Neptune Beach. Checked in to the Palms Retro and were treated like family from beginning to the end. Breakfast room was well stocked. Tips on local restaurants were tops. Hope everyone has as enjoyable a time. I'll be back. Thanks a million! Dan

“Really Great Place - EXCELLENT SERVICE and all round teriffic alternative to a boring chain hotel”

Reviewed 15 April 2013

Found this little gem in a frantic search to find a hotel for a last second trip. No, the rooms are not some 5 star competitor to the Ritz, but they are extremely clean, the themes are well done, beds are totally nice, and the rooms to offer a lot of space. I'm a real hotel snob and thought it... More

“Lovely courtyard”

Reviewed 3 April 2013

This place really makes you smile. It's located in a quiet part of neighborhood and about 10 minute walk to the beach. Their courtyard is a perfect place to have breakfast or afternoon beers...when it's sunny. They even allow you do a bbq there.

Thank you for the nice review! We are so pleased that you appreciate the lovely courtyard as much as we do. We hope to see you out there enjoying the bbq and afternoon sunshine again real soon! Safe travels~ Wes & Cindy More
