Snorkeling Little Palm Island, South Florida Keys

Florida has a lot of islands, but none so exotic and inviting as Little Palm Island. This 5-acre paradise, on the southern part of Little Torch Key, is home to one of the world's most unusual resorts. Your experience will include everything you'd expect to find at a five-star resort and much, much more.

After arriving by boat or seaplane, you'll walk along crushed seashell pathways through the incredibly lush gardens to discover thatched-roof bungalows, each barely visible from the other. Personal attention begins the moment you arrive with amenities you've ordered before you get there. What will make you happiest upon arriving? Russian caviar and champagne? Cold beer, chips and salsa? You decide, and this unusual resort will have it waiting for you.

Opulent may be the best word to describe your experience here. This secluded island resort provides spa treatments that were once reserved for Indonesian princesses. If you prefer, you can receive massage treatments in the privacy of your room or go to the Spa Suite, Rainforest Pavilion, or Palapa Point. The exquisite massage menu includes a Balinese massage known to relieve tension and promote total relaxation through acupressure, rolling motions and rhythmic strokes. Little Palm Island Resort & Spa - A Noble House Resort is one of these all-exclusive resorts, as far away from nowhere as you can get.

Televisions, telephones, and alarm clocks will not be found here. Data ports are available in the room, but hopefully you can leave your work at home and enjoy the diversions of one of the world's most unusual resorts.
