The balcony sells the place hands down. I really really enjoyed this balcony. The condo is a bit dated with a few upgrades would be so much better. The bed pillows are flat as a flitter. The bedroom bathroom needs a drain cover, those of us wearing contacts get nervous there. The coffee maker should be at least a keurig/pot combo. I was the only one drinking 1 cup of coffee a day so a keurig would have been great. Instructions on using the bedroom tv/remote. The living room remote is missing the battery cover. No storage at all for food purchased for the kitchen, no where to put things unless in refrigerator. The bedroom needs a curtain, the outside light is brighter than daylight itself. The worst was mildew in the shower tracks, hard to care for I know but it was rather gross. Building needs to be mindful of those who do smoke on the balcony as it tends to ruin the quality of the air for those of us who don't.

Second stay at Royal Palms

Other than some updating needed with the TV and a couple of cosmetic repairs, the balcony was super nice to have! There was plenty of hot water for all of us. Plenty of bath towels and rags. Good furniture on patio. Wonderful view! Kitchen size was nice. Wouldn’t recommend hallway beds for anyone over 10. We love the location of the building!

Not so good

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Let’s start with the positive. The view was incredible, the deck was amazing, we love the Building, when we did send an initial complaint, the company was receptive to send out someone to vacuum and treat for pests. At that point, though, we had already cleaned.The bed was terribly uncomfortable. It is almost impossible to lay on it without sinking into the middle. There were lots of places in the condo that were not very clean. I get that when you rent a condo, you need to bring some of your own things, but only having two trash bags kind of stinks. We were expected to sweep the floor but there wasn’t even a dust pan. Just overall very disappointed. Will not use this property mgmt again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location & views from the balcony made the whole trip worth it. We loved being so close to the pier, & the beach by the condo was not very busy. However, the room was a bit of a let down. There are many little things that could be done to greatly improve this room. When we arrived, we noticed the trash can was broken (step-on to open didn’t work). We tried to use the oven, but there was a strong burning smell when we turned it on. More attention should’ve been paid to the cleaning of the room. There were half eaten Oreos in one of the kitchen drawers & the fridge shelves were sticky. Every time we used the master bathroom shower, black chunks fell out of the door track. Also, there was mold around & on the air vents in both bathrooms. The fan in the hall bathroom made strange noises when turned on, & sometimes didn’t come on at all. The AC unit filter needs replacement as well. There are a lot of chairs in the living room area, & it felt cluttered. The TV in the living area is very small, but on a huge shelf that blocks the dining table from being used. The balcony door doesn’t lock, you have to push a bench in front of it to prevent it from being opened. The balcony space is huge, & the view from it is great! However, the chair cushions could use an upgrade or at least the ripped up old ones could be thrown out. We went down to the pool area a few times, & the pools/hot tub were very nice. It’s great that there’s a storage room you can borrow chairs & floats from! We did have to use the stairs a couple times, & the stairs are not clearly marked on the first floor. We didn’t spend a lot of time in the room & rates per night were lower since it was October when we stayed here, so it wasn’t a complete disappointment. The bed and couch were comfy, which was a plus especially after a busy day out! However, we probably wouldn’t stay here again - especially not for a higher rate in the busy season.

One of the layout chairs was shredded and mangled. It needs thrown away. The cushions in the chairs were moldy . Other than the outdoor furniture and the unit being small, it was a great place to get away and relax on the beach.

The condo was tastefully decorated and clean. The kitchen well stocked with plenty of pots, pans and dishes, everything you need to cook a meal. Plenty of beds for six people however the bunk beds in the hallway are a bit short. The balcony was massive with a breathtaking view! Great to have all that room since the condo is small.

Great balcony, but basic unit

Balcony is wonderful, as is Gulf Shores in general. The unit was pretty basic inside. I think next time if I spend this much money, I'll go for a more updated unit with a normal balcony.

Perfect getaway

This condo was the perfect getaway for a few days. The balcony view is absolutely stunning day and night. You have plenty of space to sit in the shade or sun, as well as plenty of seating. As other reviews say there is an access door to the balcony, but it can be locked from the balcony side to secure the condo. It was nice and clean with plenty of indoor seating and comfy beds. The beach is a very short walk with a nice walkway to use. It was also never crowded at this location as it is the last condo before the state park/pier. 10/10 would go back again!

It was okay

It was okay. The TVs are way too small. Electric grill does not work. Sand was in bed. You one parking pass and one extra is 55$ which is absolutely ridiculous. It was okay tho overall may stay again. But for the price I feel like I can find something way better
