We stayed at One More Day during Tropical Storm Debby. Every thing was great considering two days of bad weather. If you're concerned about staying on an island during a significant weather event, we found the stay perfectly safe. We never lost utilities. The ferry was great about communication and tried to move people on and off the best they could when safe. The pool was great for the kids. Every chair, couch and bed had a wonderful view. Terri and Jeff were very responsive. After the storm rolled out, the weather was perfect. We will definitely be back!

Everything was great from the home, dock, deck, and pool.

I have nothing but good things to say about this location. Love the pool, the dock, the house and the location!!! The house was really well stocked. I found that items that I normally bring to VRBO rentals were not needed at this location. The views from all sides allowed for some great views of the island. The island itself was a great place to just explore and relax.

Great house and property for fishing, relaxing and beach combing! Beautiful less crowded beaches too.

The property was just as described. It was a perfect getaway for our family. The pool was refreshing after a nice day on the boat. Plenty of room to be together and have your own space. Highly recommend a stay at One More Day.

We spent a few days during Christmas at One More Day and had a great time. Even though the weather wasn't great, we were still able to spend two days walking and shelling on the beach which is just a short golf cart ride away. When were were at the house we enjoyed coffee on the deck, watching boats go by, and the kids loved the heated pool. Palm Island is a magical place!

Overall really great! We enjoyed the heated pool and the kids loved fishing off the dock. Easy walk to the beach. Teri was very responsive when we had questions.
One small surprise was the cost of the ferry: $55! So plan accordingly :-)

We vacation in Florida several times a year and we were looking for something different and slow, this island fit the bill! One More Day had everything we needed to stay over Thanksgiving, from cooking our full dinner to all the amenities that came with the house, everyone was happy, even the teens. Having the heated pool was very helpful as it did get cold during our stay and the dock was constantly used for fishing and kayaking. We enhanced our stay with a golf cart rental. Teri was fantastic with communication. When it was time to leave we definitely wished we could stay One More Day!

Gorgeous island, beautiful home, lovely views, private pool with lush greenery, great location for shelling and birding, or just napping in the hammock.

This cozy home and the location was amazing for our family for a short weekend trip. We did have a hiccup in getting to the dock with our boat late in the evening but the host was very responsive and helped us get out of a tough situation. We were very grateful for that. Our kids enjoyed the upstairs bedroom with us but a bit of a challenge for some going up and down. We had everything needed at the house for our family. We got a golf cart at coconuts and enjoyed driving to the beach. Would certainly be back for a longer vacation next time.

My family and I had the most relaxing vacation here making memories we will never forget. Our kids absolutely loved swimming in the heated pool with lighting at night. We rented a golf cart and rode it back and forth to the beach a couple times a day, and enjoyed hunting for sharks teeth. The water here is crystal clear it felt like we were in a movie. “One more day” had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The beds were so comfortable, and there were TVs in every room. We grilled each day as well out by the pool. Communication with the owners was exceptional. We cannot wait to come back and plan on making this an annual tradition for our family ❤️

We had a fabulous time and One More Day on Palm Island. The house was located perfectly to the ICW. Just a short ride to all our favorite spots. The hosts were great. We definitely will be back for another stay.

Quiet island getaway - perfect place if you want to get away from the crowds! Felt like we had our own private beach. Husband loved the fishing!
10.0
Exactly as advertised and very quiet area of the island. Our 14 year old son spent a lot of time fishing off the dock and actually caught fish (which hasn’t always been the case at other locations). We also saw a manatee swim by the dock! Although not expected, it was nice to have some basic household items like Clorox wipes, toilet paper, dishwasher tabs, etc available which was the case here. The outside entertainment area with flat screen TV and fire pit was amazing and we spent many nights out there watching the NBA playoffs. Teri was extremely responsive anytime I had a question, which was also greatly appreciated!

The house and island were the perfect getaway for our family of 4. We couldn’t get the boys out of the pool! The house was super clean. It was also spacious enough for us all to be together or have time alone with the option of the second floor living space, the screened in porch or below the house. We rented a golf cart during our stay and when it died while at the beach Teri was super responsive. She contacted her friend on the island to come pick us up and then followed up the next day to make sure the golf cart issue was resolved. Great people!!

Very nice home and property to decompress. Can only be reached by ferry boat. Beach is a short car/golf cart ride away and quiet. Sunrise and coffee on the deck in the mornings are pretty nice! Thanks for sharing your home.

We loved One More Day - great setting and wonderful hosts. The pool was amazing, the beds very comfortable, and the kitchen well stocked. We were the first guests after the hurricane damage and some work was still to be done, but the property is truly a gem. The owners take great pride in their home and are exceptionally pleasant and responsive. We rented a golf cart to get to the beach which is much easier than walking. We also buy the 5-trip ferry pass each time we come to the island so we can go out to eat and grocery shop without paying each time, and it saves a little money. Don't hesitate . . . :-)

Short Vacation
Thank you Teri. We really enjoyed our short vacation at your house. The location was very peaceful and we enjoyed the island. The house was exactly as described. The house was clean and inviting. We enjoyed Kayaking, fishing, pool, beach, and the island life was the change of pace we needed. I would recommend to anyone wanting to get away.

Great island getaway - Old Florida style
Enjoyed a six night stay at this property with my family. We spent time fishing from the dock, kayaking, paddle boarding and collecting sharks teeth and shells on the beach. In the evening we rode around the island on a rented golf cart and headed to the beach to watch the sun set. Property owner was easy to reach and extremely responsive when we had a question. We enjoyed our stay!

Fantastic place and fantastic host!
This is a great place to unplug and spend quality time together as a family! Teri was super prompt in all communications and the house was just as described. This was the first house we rented where the master bed was just as comfortable as our bed at home! It was so nice to get good sleep while on vacation instead of having the "I can't wait to sleep in our own beds" feeling. Plenty of thick, lush towels were also provided and they were great quality which was also nice compared to some thin/cheap ones we've had before at other rentals. I also appreciate the fridge having working water & ice so we didn't have to use sink water or bring a ton of water bottles. There were so many little details throughout that we appreciated! Great house, great fishing, great pool and it's nice that some people could be fishing and you could see what they reeled in from the pool without having to get out. Lots of snook by the dock and we were able to catch some which our boys loved. The island is low key, but there is one restaurant and one ice cream shop. Once we explored the island we were super happy we chose this rental. It is one of the few houses with a private pool and is in such a great location. Can't say enough about the house or the host! Thanks for sharing your home with us Teri!

First time staying on the island
The House was ready when we arrived, everything looked exactly as pictured on the VRBO site. There were plenty of towels and kitchen items available, the only thing that we were missing was the Keurig coffee maker, but they did have a regular Mr. coffee that worked just fine. The views were beautiful, the bed was very comfortable, great water pressure in the shower, all the comforts of home including dishwasher, washer dryer, heated swimming pool, large stainless steel double door refrigerator freezer. To get from the main floor up to the extra bedrooms there is a spiral staircase. Just something to be aware of if older adults are using the upstairs area in addition to the main floor master suite. There were golf carts on the property however not available to us, so we rented one for $65 a day at Coconuts. One thing we discovered was no automotive vehicles are allowed to go to Coconuts or Rum Bay restaurant. It is because it is located on the palm island resort property and they do not allow vehicles other than golf carts on the property. I highly recommend getting a golf cart it’s worth it, as you can see so much more of the island this way. The check in book offered a few hints and tips to make your stay more enjoyable. Teri kept in touch with me via the Vrbo app, which made communication much easier. It’s a beautiful location for relaxation as a couple or for an entire family as there was many activities to do and plenty of space to do them in.

Great home for a family or couple!
This home was so great to stay in. We enjoyed the very nice dock, pool area and outdoor TV! The yard was very private and peaceful. We definitely would rent this home again!

Perfect for our family
One more day had everything we needed. My son fished every morning and my daughter swam all day long! The beach was close enough that we could come and go! Stock up on groceries before you hit the ferry!

Great Property/Great Location
If you love to boat, enjoy your own pool and the beach this place is for you. The boat dock is very large with water and electricity, it's also 100% protected from waves and boat traffic. Pool is very nice and enjoyable after a day at beach or boating. No canals to traverse, you are right on the ICW. Enjoy the decks to watch the boats and wildlife. Finally, you will never have a better and more responsive host than at this property.

Average
Location and host are both amazing. But the house is old and tired. Lots of deferred maintenance. Just not up to our expectations. Downstairs bedroom and bath are tiny. The only way upstairs is a spiral staircase that is difficult for a healthy person who is in shape. Impossible to safely get a large suitcase upstairs. I hate leaving this review because the host was so nice but we would not stay there again.

Disappointed
The property needs updating. Furniture cheap and lacking and main floor bed noisy and uncomfortable. Sliding doors do not open and close easily, some not at all. It would have been nice to have some information prior about the ferry costs. Cutting boards need replaced knives broken and very dull, this is a hazard. Overall disappointed in the property. Beach and weather beautiful!

Highly recommend this home !!

Beyond Amazing
We are frequent VRBO users. The homeowner of this property went so far above and beyond to help us, I wish I could give her 10 stars. She is incredible. The property is wonderful-quiet, clean, and with your own private pool and waterfront. We had an awesome vacation here.

"Old Florida" on Palm Island
We just returned from our stay at "One More Day" on Palm Island. The house was very comfortable and clean. The sun room with the picnic table was a very popular spot for meals and to hang out reading or playing games. The heated pool is a great addition which came in handy for those marginal weather days. The house also has a new side by side refrigerator with water and ice dispenser. It was great for storing our weeks worth of food and treats. The house is situated on a very private and quiet lot. There is a kettle style grill on ground level for some great charcoal grilling. We got 4 grilled dinners out of 1 large bag of charcoal with some left over. The beach is an easy walk if you're not traveling with gear or children. Otherwise you'll probably want to rent a golf cart. We enjoyed walking more and taking in the scenery. If you do rent a cart there are lots of different beach access points along S. Gulf and N. Gulf. So don't limit yourself to always going to the same one. If you've never vacationed on Palm Island you don't want to miss the experience. With no bridge to the island, here's your chance to see some "Old Florida" . Beach houses on shell roads along unspoiled beaches... like it was meant to be!

Palm Island is beautiful and quiet!
Cute island cottage! Kitchen could use full size coffeemaker and larger size pots with lids (only 1 four quart pot available). Bed in master bedroom very comfortable. Plenty of towels and beach towels available. Hoping for a longer stay next year!

Great Location!
Looking for a slow paced vacation, this is the place! We brought our boat the dock was perfect, easy to access and protect by mangroves. The pool being heated was perfect for our January visit. We rode the bikes a short 5 minute ride every evening to watch the sunset plus toured the island. Make sure you bring all your provisions so you do not have to go to the mainland. Only negative was the bed was very small but we it was comfortable.

Perfect home away from home
My family enjoyed Just One a more Day for our Christmas vacation. The house was very clean and as described. The beds were very comfortable, plenty of bath and beach towels provided, and plenty of hot water for a family of four. We cooked 5 out of 6 nights and had everything we needed in the kitchen. We brought our own spices, condiments, firewood, and charcoal. We brought dishwasher and laundry pods, extra paper towels, and trash bags. Some were provided but it was nice to have extra. We are so thankful the house accommodated our dogs as a lot do not, they enjoyed looking out over the gated back deck. Check in and check out was a breeze. The pool was perfect and the dock was nice to have. We had a fishing charter pick us up right on the dock as recommended by the home owner. We had a blast catching snook and trout. The beach was a short golf cart ride away-we found lots of sharks teeth and the beaches are pristine. Also a short golf cart away is Coconuts a small store, golf cart rental, and ice cream shop. Upstairs is Rum Bay which has amazing drinks, pizza, and a full menu. This was the perfect house for us and we hood to return as this is a slice of paradise!!
