About this property
Directly on Beach - Great Getaway! Stunning View From Private Balcony!
Frequently watch the dolphins play with your morning coffee or favorite beverage, from your private balcony in #1307 on the penthouse level 1 of Royal Palms. Or, just enjoy beautiful breath taking views of the fall and winter sunrise/sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico. Royal Palms is somewhat secluded, adjacent to Gulf State Park, an undeveloped three mile beach. Yet it is still conveniently located in the heart of Gulf Shores and Orange Beach attractions are also within a few miles.
There is the outdoor pool and a heated indoor pool and hot tub, and a steam and dry sauna, as well as a fitness room. A grilling/BBQ area with a picnic table and benches is perfect when you want to eat in. The sparkling white beach is within footsteps of the building, which the private balcony overhangs. There is also a bike storage area if you wish to bring along your bicycles.
The unit has been recently painted and updated with new cabinets, counters and fixtures in the kitchen and both baths. There is new furniture and mattress in the bedroom and new furniture throughout. It has spacious extra high ceilings (only available in select units on this P-1 level of the building, which is the 2nd floor from the top of the building), Queen size bedroom with a private bathroom, 2nd bathroom in hall, alcove bunk beds (great for kids! Not for adults; weight and height limits), and a Queen size sofa sleeper in the living area (also great for kids). The dining and living area contain a flat screen Smart TV along with Cable, and a flat screen TV is also located in the bedroom. WiFi Internet service, a washer & dryer, and a fully equipped kitchen to cook your favorite meals when you are not in the mood to visit the nearby restaurants are other features. It has already created lasting memories for many (see guest comments section). An exciting and/or relaxing vacation getaway!!!

Wonderful stay!! Beautiful sunrises and sunsets enjoyed from the balcony or beach, which was steps out the door. We would definitely recommend this cute condo again and again!
It was our second stay and just as we remembered it. Our happy place is drinking coffee on the balcony! Plus a few Bushwackers during our stay is always good!!
Great location, right next to the state park. Ideal place on the beach. Easy to get to and a good amount of starter materials including trash bags, toilet paper, etc. Great view of the area and the gulf from the 13th floor balcony
This penthouse level condo has great view and comfortable furnishing. Location next to the state park results in miles of open beach not crowded with umbrellas.
Great location and beautiful view from the balcony! The condo was very clean and decorated cute! Very accommodating! My grandbabies and I really enjoyed it!
We really loved the view from the balcony. Really comfortable set up on balcony with table & chairs and lounger. The property was just a short walk to the beach. The beach was beautiful and not very crowded at all. And we got to see dolphins pass by almost every day. The condo was clean and nicely furnished. It was a really nice vaycay.
Solid condo. Great beach access. Great view. Beach support company good. Location in the middle of gulf shores shopping. Close to golf courses for me.
Not a complaint but just FYI- —The front door sticks. To force it requires slamming it a bit and we feared that to be potentially noisy and bothersome for our neighbors. Solid condo experience for us.
Property was clean, and exactly as described. We had such a wonderful trip! Location was directly by the state Pier, which unfortunately was not open yet, but also the location was central to anywhere you needed to go. I wish we could have stayed longer!! The 4th of July fireworks were shot off the pier, so we had front row seats as this condo is 2nd floor from the top, so it was spectacular display and we never had to leave the balcony.
The only suggestion I would make is to upgrade the TV in the bedroom to one like the one in living room, so that we could log in to apps like Netflix and such. We could never figure out how that TV works in the bedroom, and we usually sleep with the TV going. Other than that, overall a great time and we had everything we needed for our stay.
Clear communication about what was provided, and what we needed to bring. Wonderful condo with great view that we enjoyed daily. Unit was clean and well maintained. I highly recommend this rental. Friendly town. I highly recommend!
We really enjoyed our stay. Everything we needed was provided and it was the perfect location on the beach. Great beach views. So relaxing! We will be back!
Checking in was very easy. Condo was clean and has an amazing view of the gulf. Location is very good and short drive to restaurants. Thanks for hosting us we thoroughly enjoyed it !
