Overall experience was ok...

1.00Overall experience was ok but it is definitely false advertising. We did not do cliff jumping only riding UTV . Wasn’t nothing me or my friends was expecting or that is expected to do!!! Very unfair and needs to be updated as soon as possible.
Great experience!

5.00Had a great time! Would definitely recommend for family and friends. Plenty to do and enjoy. 10/10 for sure.
Turtle private cabana was the BEST!!

5.00The private cabana was worth every penny. It was a relaxing space for me and my family with ample room. The wait staff was so kind and accommodating. They kept the drinks coming that I lost count. lol! Being right next to the flamingos was so cool. One suggestion would be netting around the cabana, trying to eat with all the birds was off putting. It also would be nice to have some form of safety tie/rope at the bottom of the stairs going into the water as a safety precaution in addition to the life vest. I would have loved to have gotten in the water more but I’m not a strong swimmer so I only went down to the last step. I really enjoyed the entire trip.
Definitely recommend!!!!...

5.00Definitely recommend!!!! Everything was everything. If you want to be where the flamingos are you have to pay for premium seating. But everything was worth the price 100%
Great for kids

5.00Took 2 teenagers they enjoyed the activities. A nice splashpark/ wildlife for younger kids. The food was surprisingly tasty and plentiful enjoyed the beer and frozen drinks at the bar but not the cocktails. If you are an adult I would recommend spending the money on something else. The beach area was small and rocky.
Amazing Time!

5.00We had a wonderful time. We tried everything they had to offer. My child is 5 years old and was able to reach the big boy water slide. He spent most of his time in the small area. He loved the flamingos, swam in the ocean and ate all the fries he could ever want. 10/10

My Birthday at De Palm Island
Letishia C,Mar 30, 2026
- Review from Viator
5.00I went for my Birthday and it was a great experience. The Flamingos and turtles were too cool nice added touch. The buffet food could have been better but the food at the bar was great I enjoyed the burgers and de palm fries!! My children had a blast they went on all the slides even the body drop one!!! The beach was a bit rocky but other than that Id give palm island two thumbs up. We got lost trying to find the ferry terminal so please give yourself more than enough time to get there, so you can catch the very first ferry over to the island. Thank Viator!!!
