From the owner

Located in The Palms Private Residence Club, Villa 22, or Casa Chocolate, is a 2200+ square foot, 2 bedroom, 3 bathroom beachfront villa, about a 30-second walk from the door to the beach! It comfortably houses 4 adults and 2 children. Villa 22 has become one of The Palms' most in-demand homes because of its superior equipment, unequaled privacy and great extra perks that other homes in the complex don't offer.

Casa Chocolate, as the name implies, is decorated in a chocolate theme. A careful and patient collection process for the art pieces has made for an entertaining, cheerful and pretty look for the entire villa. Modern contemporary furniture with a tropical flair is not just delightful to look at, it is very comfortable as well. A beautifully appointed, fully equipped gourmet kitchen lets you prepare spectacular meals.

Casa Chocolate is also equipped with the latest technology and communications goodies: High-speed WiFi and wired Internet, free unlimited long distance calling, Smart TVs in every room; digital cable, Apple TV, Blu-Ray and a high-quality Home Theater system in the living room.

The Palms also boasts a complete oceanside gym, spa pool, infinity pool with bar and food service, and a BBQ area with two large professional Weber grills. Don’t feel like cooking? Many great restaurants are only minutes away. If you feel like really indulging yourself, let in-house chef Leo prepare and serve you a fabulous gourmet meal in the villa or by torchlight right by the beach.

    Perfect for our family
    Dec 2017

    Very nice condo with views of the beach and pool. Comfortably sleeps five, although a small child could sleep in loft to make it six. We would stay here again.
