Quick Wedding Trip

Stayed here for a few days while attending a friend's wedding. Check in was easy, place was clean and it was nice to have a golf cart available on property. Only critics I have would be some damage/warping to the downstairs bathroom vanity that could cause some minor injury if not careful, and the shower heads are just old school/cheap small heads.

Lovely Weekend Away!

Overall we had a lovely weekend and the property was in a great location. Very quiet street and easy to get around. Check in and out was incredibly easy. The 6 seater cart was easy to use and we lucked out with bikes. House had everything you need too. However, the property could use a good clean.. it was very buggy inside and outside. Didn’t seem like it had been deep cleaned in a while or dusted/swept. There were peoples laundry in the closet making it seem like no one ever cleaned up after the last people to stay. For the price I would expect to have had it cleaned better.

Lovely home and great location!

My family and I visited baldhead island for the first time last week and we absolutely loved our stay at this property! It was a perfect house for the four of us. It had everything we needed and more. It was a great location – just a few minutes away from the market and the BHI club and marina. We will definitely be back and would happily stay at this property again!

Loved our weekend stay at Sabal Palms! Cottage was clean and as advertised. Kitchen is very well equipped and living area was spacious. Wonderful having 3 bathrooms. Beds were also comfy! 6 person golf cart was a treat and having bikes and beach chairs available was very nice. Great location... to grocery and south beach. Thanks for everything!

This was our 1st time on Bald Head Island and our stay at the Coconut’s Castle cottage heightened the experience. It was the perfect place to relax while enjoying the beautiful, natural scenery surrounding the cottage. The cottage was impeccably clean and we loved how the 3 bedrooms all had their own private bath. The private screened in porch was one of our favorite features too! It came stocked with necessities such as linens, towels, kitchen items, a golf cart, beach chairs and bikes. The cottage’s location is also ideal because you are only a short golf cart drive from the beach, boutiques, and restaurants. We will definitely be back!
