My family and I decided to take a last minute vacation to recharge from the holidays and get away from the cold. My husband booked the International Palms Resort, packed our suitcases, loaded the kids into the car, and headed to Florida. BEST DECISION EVER! We had such a wonderful time. The moment we pulled up we were greeted by the staff who immediately began to assist us with our luggage, and checking in. The check in process was effortless and the team behind the counter really made us feel at home. After getting settled into our room we headed down to the pool where the kids swam and played and I was able to get some much needed "me" time with a fruity drink and sun in my face. Even though we had transportation to travel further out we found ourselves dinning at Mambos and Captains Grill every day. Not only was the staff friendly and fast, but our food was delicious too. We could tell the resort was going through some upgrades but not once were we put out or bothered with any noise. Our family had such a wonderful trip that not only will we be telling our friends and family about the International Palms Resort but we have decided to make going there a new family tradition! Thanks again, International Palms Resort staff, for making our family feel as if we were your number one priority! See you next year!

We skipped a night at the Hilton in Orlando and moved here - a definite disappointment! I got bed bug bites in the room we were in the first night, which overlooked the tennis courts. It smelled funny and seemed old. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We were moved to beachfront for the next 2 nights, which helped us feel better about the place in general. It looks great from the street, not so great inside the rooms.

I stayed here recently with my family and had a wonderful time. The hotel is situated perfectly on the beach and provides an outstanding view and surroundings. The pool area is fantastic and also features a pirates ship area for smaller children. The food and cocktails were also wonderful. To relax in Cocoa Beach, we didn't need to leave the resort. The service and staff were perfectly accommodating to our needs. Rooms were wonderful and clean. We recommend a two story room on the south side.

I was somewhat apprehensive after reading the reviews but had already booked so decided to give the International Palms Resort a go anyway. I was extremely happy with the stay and was confused by all the poor reviews compared to my experience. During a conversation with the manager I spoke about my previous apprehension. He said there was a lot of changes going on within the resort with the new management and many of the complaints have been heard and are being corrected within the resort. If the old reviews are correct I can definitely see what he was talking about.

From checking in to checking out the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. I enjoyed eating at Mambos and Captains Grill, the wait staff was extremely quick, made great recommendations, and was very well prepared. It was obvious the resort is going through upgrades but it is also key to point out that things like noise or other problems that occur were barely noticeable and the general cleanliness of the everything there was well above expectations.

I have stayed at many hotels as I travel a lot for business and have to say that the International Palms Resort is a place I would definitely stay again and highly recommend to others, especially for the value. I am actually excited to travel back to see how some of the renovations turn out.
