Top hotels in Palmetto Historic District

Kompose Boutique Hotel
Staff was very helpful. You might want to hire a couple more staff to work the kitchen in the evening. They were great but were a bit overwhelmed by the number of guests to wait on. I give them credit for being so nice under the pressure.

Island Grand at TradeWinds
Room was nice but small area for coffee and sink Find it insulting that they charge you $25 to park your own car- not valet. Like u have any other choice if you drove to resort. At the room price and resort fee- parking should be free!!!!!!!
