Writer Heydari describes the angelic Little Palm Island as "Accessible only by boat or seaplane" (See "Getting There"), the tiny two-hectare islet is one of the "back country atolls, many of them largely uninhabited in The Keys. It has been the haven for the likes of Truman and fellow Commander-in-Chief John F. Kennedy since the 1920s." He also adds, "Today it welcomes au fait holidaymakers who bed down in one of the 30 thatched, TV-less bungalows and avail themselves to a petite spa, a restaurant, a whole host of leisure activities, but mostly the calm and quiet of the surroundings."
