Top Kent Mitchell Nature Trail Hotel Reviews

NEW lithium GOLF CARTS, Renovated and newly Furnished Welcome to Palm Paradise

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time and enjoyed the house. Location was good - in the forest close to the ferry, store, beaches, and other attractions but not too close. Very quiet this time of year. Golf carts were fast! Need need to be careful not to get a speeding ticket! Only kept from five stars for cleanliness due to some dog hair under the sofas. Wouldn’t have found except our pup lost her ball. Melanie is a great communicator and gracious host. Would stay again!"

Welcome to the Mermaid villa - Your perfect retreat!

"The property was nice with great views of the ocean. We are an elderly couple and a bit disappointed that there was only one chair in the den since we do not sit well on soft sofas. That would not matter to most people. Interesting decor."

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect house for my family to celebrate my mom’s 70th! The house had everything you would need to make the trip easy. The young kid/baby equipment they had was especially helpful! We loved the porch, open kitchen area and the two golf carts were crucial with a large group and kids for the week! We would definitely stay here again! The way the house is set up is wonderful for families downstairs and the main area upstairs."
