Disliked: Cleanliness
We recently stayed at this Royal Palms property. The location was excellent— conveniently situated on the beach, making it ideal for a relaxing getaway. Communication with the owners was adequate and timely when needed.However, we were disappointed with the cleanliness of the unit. It was clear the condo had not been thoroughly cleaned. There was visible dirt throughout, and the floors and surfaces were covered in hair and debris. The sheets had hair on them, there was a packaging wrapper and dice (?) on the bedroom floor (no way could the room have been swept), there was what appeared to either be vomit or feces on the shower curtain, stains on quilts provided, and paint coming off the walls and baseboards. We wiped down the bunk bed ladder for our little ones and the wipe was black. We ended up putting them in the king bed with us all week once we saw whatever was smeared along the bunk wall as well. Rugs need replaced. Toilet seats didn’t seem to fit correctly. You sat on part seat/part bowl. Shower pressure was nonexistent, we ended up washing our hair in the kitchen sink to remove shampoo. While we appreciated the setting and ease of communication, the lack of cleanliness significantly impacted our overall experience. We hope these issues are addressed moving forward, as the property has great potential with better maintenance.

Great stay at a great place

We had a great stay at this Royal Palms unit. The views from the 12th floor were amazing! The unit was just a described. Having two full bathrooms was extremely nice as well. Located at three east end of Gulf Shores made it easy to enjoy everything from Dauphin Island to Perdido Key. If we return, we will definitely look to see if this unit is avaliable and we would recommend it to others.

Amazing views, 12th floor so little wait for the elevator but worth it, clean room. Cookware and kitchen could use some updates and the dishwasher was crooked but worked great. Quick response from owners of anything was needed. Sauna, hot tub and steam room were an added luxury on our cold, windy rainy day!

Great Comfortable Condo on the Beach

We have been going to Gulf Shores for over 30 years. This condo was the most comfortable (as far as furnishings) we have ever stayed in. Will rebook future trips at this exact condo, if available.

This was one of the best VRBO's that we have stayed. It was walking distance to almost anywhere. We spent a lot of days at the state park next door. The beach was lovely, the condo was quiet, clean and stocked well. We will go back!
