Our stay at Palm Grove Cottages was simply amazing! The environment was tranquil, surrounded by lush greenery, and the accommodations had that charming old-world vibe. The owners and staff were incredibly attentive and engaging, which made us feel right at home. However, it's worth noting that having no TVs in the rooms might not suit everyone, especially if you prefer to unwind with some television after a long day. Overall, we enjoyed our time immensely!
