Palm Island Plantation will have 153 residences at the project's completion: 23 single family Vero Beach luxury homes and 64 carriage homes, and 66 luxury condominiums. Approximately 127 homes have been built to date. Soothing soft pastel colors in earth tones and a French Country palate amplify the lush tropical foliage.

Whether folks desire 3 bedroom 3 baths or a larger 4 bedroom model, property owners will have a two-car garage and air-conditioned storage area, walk-in closets and brand name appliances in the large eat-in kitchen. When the high-speed elevator opens, it opens to a private foyer. The insulated solid masonry walls provide solid sound barriers between the units. Condominiums begin just under $1 million.

Townhomes are three-bedroom units with 3.5 baths, and like the condominiums, have a two-car garage. There are three floor plans to choose from. The elevator is optional, but natural stone countertops are standard in this exquisite maintenance-free home. Townhome prices begin in the high $700k's. 

Estate homes in Palm Island Plantation offer a whopping 3,700 to 7,000 square feet of living space – with your choice of wood or marble for flooring, oversized baths with Jacuzzi bathtubs, countertops of marble or granite, and your own private swimming pool.

The mature landscaping makes every home a private paradise within Palm Island Plantation’s cozy environs.

While the carriage homes are a slightly more modest 2,600 to 4,000 square feet, these properties are nonetheless desirable. Butler pantries and wet bars complete with wine coolers and ice machines are key components that make these residences anything but ordinary. 

For those who enjoy the benefits of boat ownership, deep-water dockage is available at one of the community's 12 boat slips if you're not purchasing a deepwater home. The River Cabana is a sweet spot to watch the sunset on the horizon. The gated community Florida is also golf cart friendly. Brick-paved walkways lead around the community's accent lakes. When considering Vero Beach luxury homes, Palm Island Plantation is worth taking a look. 

In an area where the climate is so welcoming, excursions on the water will be frequent. More often than not, clear sunny days are common in the Vero Beach vicinity.  The Treasure Coast, upon which Palm Island Plantation is located, is named for the host of Spanish Galleons full of priceless treasures which were shipwrecked there in centuries past. It is an area which attracts both amateur and professional treasure-hunters, who try their luck at finding doubloons and jewels on the ocean floor. While the area was once dominated by citrus groves, in recent years it has become the East Coast’s best-kept secret for living the high life in undisturbed bliss.

Beachland Elementary, Osceola Magnet School, Vero Beach High School and Saint Edward's School are the closest best schools to Palm Island Plantation.
