Previously a private writer's retreat, Twin Palms Cottage is the smaller cousin attached to our larger home, Twin Palms.  However, both are thoroughly private and offer their own special character and charm.  We love the intimate feel of the Cottage; all you can see from the many windows is the lush outside landscaping.  It makes you feel like you're in a private tropical oasis. Like Twin Palms, this is just a short walk to the beach (about 300 meters). We recently remodeled this 900-square foot unit and upgraded the kitchen and living areas to create a comfortable, open space.




There's a Great room with an open Kitchen with custom bamboo countertops and a large apron sink.  As one of the owners is a chef and food writer, it's well equipped with quality cookware, knives, spices and so on. The living room has comfortable classic bamboo and rattan furniture.  A huge, sturdy coffee table offers a place to relax, play games or eat. A brand-new 27-inch flat-screen TV with DVD/VCR player is hidden in a beautiful, dark wood cabinet from Indonesia. The cottage features tiled floors throughout, with quality rugs offering a bit of comfort under the feet.

The bedrooms are separated by sliding wood French doors. The two bedrooms are to one side of the house, making them very quiet and private.  One we call the "garden" bedroom has two walls of windows -- you can see nothing but lush greenery and palms. The other bedroom, the "Patio" bedroom has its own private sun deck through sliding glass doors. Both bedrooms have brand new Sealy Posturpedic queen-sized beds with down duvets, down pillows and 300+ quality linens.  The backyard has a wonderful hammock strung between two palm trees, plus a private tiki gazebo. There's another patio deck off one of the bedrooms. A boat dock that comes with the house, just a few blocks away. You can launch kayaks from there, fish or even rent your own boat and keep it there during your stay.

The Cottage has high-efficiency air-conditioning, high-speed wireless internet service, high-capacity washer and dryer, cable TV with 90+ channels, brand new DVD and VCR with a video library of 30+ titles.  We also supply beach toys, umbrellas, chairs and beach towels.  Children are more than welcome; we have a high chair, folding crib, toys and other kid needs, so please inquire on availability. This unit is adjacent to Twin Palms, which sleeps six. Rented together, they can sleep 10 people in beds. We have a wonderful manager who lives just four blocks away. She manages only Twin Palms, so you're assured great service. Check out our web site for a full virtual tour!
