Palmetto Beachfront Hotel, a By the Sea Resort
The outdoor pool was not heated for the first couple days of our stay. We were happy that the heater was repaired and the pool heated for the last few days. We had always prioritized Palmetto in past years because of the warm pool. Rooms and grounds are well maintained.
