Short walk to the Gulf State pier. The beach was not crowded considering it was Labor Day weekend. The condo is nice sized with everything we needed. The balcony was huge and nice to sit and enjoy the ocean. Overall it was a great stay and would stay here again. ##### Allison S.

Beds were great. Living room furniture need to be replace but did not matter most of the week except the day it rained. ##### Beth R.

Most families were able to stay at Royal Palms. Location was great as the beach wasn’t ever packed. The condo was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. I’d definitely book here again! ##### Jamie K.

You can hear the sound of the waves from it and its such a relaxing hang out spot. Ease of walking onto the beach was great and the beach was never busy, which we prefer. My only criticism is the lack of beach gear. For those flying in, having chairs and beach towels would be great. The chairs for rent are expensive and it was more economical for us to buy chairs and towels at walmart and leave the chairs behind. This was by far our favorite beach vacation yet. ![View from balcony](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/96801d5e-753c-4267-8d8c-23bcf867a1a3-1745957558931.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Pier view from balcony ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/51182f9a-3e48-466b-9b97-f053ecb348ad-1745957558922.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Crystal R.
