Thats definitely a jubaea and an old one at that (probably at least 40 years old give or take). I really doubt they dislike salty air since they naturally grow in marine climates where temps are relatively cool and an ocean breeze blows on shore. Definitely not lovers of heat or humidity but it can stand some heat and even some humidity. These are one of those palms that california can grow and florida cant!
