Villa Desert Palm was designed with the casual DXer and his family in mind, while at the same time providing a world class contest setup on one of the most gorgeous IOTA DXstinations on the planet.
One of the most recently allocated DXCC entities, this IOTA hot-spot is a beautiful Caribbean island that, with the uninhabited islet of Klein Bonaire nestled in its western crescent, forms a special municipality of the Netherlands.
The creation of Villa Desert Palm, a fully equipped radio shack, means one can now help the world’s DX Hunters tick off another “new one” in the log.
Villa Desert Palm is a 2 story, 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom rental cottage, with a fully equipped ham shack occupying the entire upper floor.
It also boasts a fully furnished living area, cable TV, high speed internet, local telephone and air conditioning.
Villa Desert Palm was designed to enable the travelling DXer to ‘plug-in and play’.
