We believe the small details & personal service make the difference. We as the owner/managers of La Palmeraie have 15 years of extensive worldwide business travel experience to call upon to understand the needs & wants of our clientele. For our own personal travel needs we only use vacation rentals & boutique hotels, giving us positive & negative experiences from the traveler’s perspective. The considerations to and the indulgences for our guests are a reflection of cumulative experience as clients.
Pets are important members of any family; we welcome the dogs & cats in your party with dangerous breed exceptions.
We live in the neighborhood, and thus can provide valuable insight on our area, while also being available to attend to guest’s needs at short notice.
Guest comfort & safety are our paramount concerns. We use only 600 thread count bed linens & Egyptian cotton bath linens. Our linens never come in contact with chlorine bleach in deference to sensitive skin & environmental concerns. Our linens are soaked in a Woolite solution for 24 hours & then laundered.
Unlike many hotels & vacation rental properties our cleaning service never “tops up” the linen count in a suite. Every single thread of bed & bath linens, including duvet covers are removed to be laundered & replaced with an all new stock of sanitized linens.
Please see our past guest’s comments for their thoughts on our standards.
La Palmeraie is a classic Florida beach house originally constructed in 1933, as the family abode for the then mayor Gonzalez. In 2004 La Palmeraie was extensively renovated, commencing an entirely new chapter in this historic home’s story.
The house is divided into 3 apartments, each with their own discrete separate entrance to ensure each guest’s privacy. The ground floor of the house is comprised of the Master Suite, & the Garden Suite. The entire second floor is occupied by the Executive Suite.
During the extensive renovation process, entirely new kitchens & bathrooms were installed in each unit. All infrastructure systems were replaced with the highest efficiency equipment available. When possible, the period original treatments in each suite have been refurbished to preserve the character of the space while adding high standards of modern design, features & conveniences.

I spent 4 nights over the weekend of Nov 17th in the Master Suite for my wedding. We're locals that were looking for something beautiful to escape to during the weekend and La Palmeraie couldn't have been more perfect. It's a beautiful, fully restored old Jacksonville Beach house. Hardwood floors, gorgeous furnishings (very IKEA as someone mentioned), luxurious linens and towels (amazing night’s sleep, super comfortable bed).
It's definitely not kid-friendly with so many nice things including the flat screen TV's, wine cooler and high-end kitchenware, but we weren't there for a family vacation. If that's what you're looking for, my brother had the suite upstairs (Executive Suite) and it's PERFECT for families with younger kids. But, if you're looking for a beautiful location with luxury amenities, the Master suite is the place to stay.
I should note that after seeing the courtyard area, we moved our rehearsal dinner for 50 to it! The fire pit, hammock and landscaping were beautiful at night and lit perfectly. It was a truly special event and Mike and the space made it even more so. Unforgettable, personal, comfortable, clean, meticulously furnished, beautiful. Best words to describe the place!
The only issue we had was with the heat on the second night, but Mike was there within an hour with the repair man and it was resolved quickly and quietly. We couldn’t have asked for a better host and I think this shows the character of the space and owner. He really took the time to make every little piece of the space more comfortable with extra amenities
By the way, if you’re a techie like me, I loved the FREE wireless access around the house and Mike’s own photography around all of the walls. It makes you feel like you’re traveling and staying in a gorgeous B&B in Europe with high-tech amenities. The best of both worlds!

This was the PERFECT place to stay. It had all the feel of an urban swanky city loft. The decor' screamed IKEA and there were special touches throughout. Such as a CD mix used as a soundtrack for your stay, TVs in every room, and easy to access internet made this place heaven for the multi media saavy.

I stayed in the master suite at La Palmeraie with my husband and teenage daughter for a week during spring break this month. It was a wonderful trip. The house is a very clean and non-smoking property that is pet friendly and close to the beach. All of the things we were looking for and more. Mike was very helpful and made the whole rental process very easy. We will definitely stay here again.
