Fine

Location great. Pretty run down. The mattress on the kids beds were more like for patio furniture than a nights sleep. Had to double up those mattresses and utilize the pullout couch which was also very uncomfortable. Dishwasher had standing water in the bottom when we got there so didn’t use. Overall, fine I guess but definitely not Woolf not stay or recommend

Amazing location

Best idea yet. Being able to stay in the beach steps away from the ocean and a convenient wash off area to reduce sand tracking in. Love being able to wash towels, swim suits etc. Can use some upgrades but if your just staying there to rest between outings it’s perfect t. I recommend given the location and price. I’d do it again. Oh also we had a minor issue and when we reached out to management they responded very quickly and followed up to ensure we were happy. Fantastic service.

Great location!

The location was great! Right on the edge of the beach so it was less crowded-even for a holiday. It’s an older building so the condo is aged, but smaller which we preferred. The home was well stocked with things we needed to cook. My biggest complaint was the beds and couch. The bunk beds were basically foam mattresses which my teens said were very uncomfortable. Also the couch was old and worn and very uncomfortable to sit on. We spent most of our time on the balcony which was amazing! We ate out there too and rented chairs on the beach to lounge during the day. It was great to be right on the water! I would stay here again and hope the furniture is updated.

Nice Condo Building - But Unit could be better - Details are Important!

Royal Palms is a nice building where we have stayed many times before. This unit is not one of the best. The floors were dirty upon arrival; even sandy. There was only one blanket in the unit for all of us. The master bedroom had only sheets on the bed; no comforter, quilt, blanket, nothing but sheets. There was an old and very dirty comforter thrown in the floor of the closet which we definitely did not use! We were able to borrow blankets from another unit where someone we know was staying and they had plenty! The shower door in the master bathroom does not close all the way. The sofa is sagging and full of stains. When you pull out the sofa sleeper it is uneven and obviously very worn. Online photos are nice but are outdated.

Amenities not as described

I have stayed here before. My favorite in Gulf Shores. However when we arrived they were irking on the roof the entire stay. Also the hot tub was not operational nor the sauna. These were 2 of the deciding factors for us because of the cool weather. We didn’t even get to use them.
