About this property

Time to get… 🎶 Knee deep in the water somewhere! 🎶 on island time!

Discover the unparalleled beauty of an East corner unit, offering unobstructed views spanning miles of unspoiled State Park dunes from the balcony, bedroom, and living room windows. Feast your eyes on the Gulf waters right below, extending towards miles of pristine beaches to the East, and charming views to the North of lush Gulf Shores State Park. With two pools and proximity to fine dining, golf, water parks, amusement parks, mini-golf, hiking trails, a fishing pier, shopping, and more, this is the ideal place to be. Covered parking adds to the convenience of your stay.

This condo has undergone recent renovations and is meticulously maintained, ensuring cleanliness, comfort, and spaciousness. Brand new TVs, new comforters in bedrooms, and enhanced cable service! The furnishings, décor, and A/C have been thoughtfully tended to. Enveloped by the sound of waves, the fully stocked kitchen invites you to prepare a meal, while the 42" flat-screen TV and stereo provide relaxation. TV entertainment is available in the den or in both bedrooms. The master bedroom features a BRAND NEW 2024 king-size bed, and the second bedroom hosts a queen bed, both offering views of the Gulf. A new addition of built-in bunk beds enhances the condo's capacity to accommodate a total of 6 guests. The bedrooms are fully carpeted, with tiled flooring throughout the rest of the condo. Peaceful and serene, the only sound you'll hear at night is the calming rhythm of the ocean. Revel in the amazing panoramic views!

UPDATE: As of October 2024 there is a new Flat Screen Smart TV and new Lazy Boy Recliner in the living room and the carpeting in all bedrooms was replaced with LVP. In November the condo also went through a professional semi annual deep cleaning

Multiple ocean views

Several windows in the condo with sweeping ocean views. Ours was the last condo so the beach area didn’t seem as crowded. We were mainly in the condo to sleep, didn’t cook. Spur of the moment trip for our anniversary. I’d definitely like to stay at Royal Palms again.

Great location and view

We have stayed at the Royal Palms for several years. The location near the state park is excellent. Each year they seem to keep making improvements to the faucilty. This VRBO had an excellent view, clean and beautiful. You can walk for miles on the beach in each direction and the residents of the Gulf Shores area are always friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed it. Jill and Mike

It was nice that it had a washer/dryer in the unit. We liked that the condo building was the last one before the Gulf Shores State Park. We were able to social distance from others. It was very congested further up the beach, and very little social distancing.

The location is great! Unit could use some updates. The carpet in the bedrooms is very worn and dirty. It needs to be replaced asap. Beds were comfortable. Other than the carpet needing replacing, dates it was as described. I always take air fresheners, sheets to cover furniture and my own bedding when I stay at any rental units.

It's great that you came prepared with your own items, but we want to ensure that our guests feel completely comfortable without needing to bring extra things.

Peffect getaway

We came to vist our kids for xmas and decided to do a few days at the beach. This condo fit our price and what needed for #sleeping. Furniture a bit large for family living area.I would say dated appliances and kitchen. But worked fine. Loved the corner unit and views outstanding. The beds were wonderful. THE VIEWS are what made it. And location easy. We would stay again.

We love Gulf Shores! I do have to say, it was the busiest we’ve ever seen it. Our condo had several issues. Missing batteries in remotes, light bulbs that need replacing, radio didn’t work, beds not comfortable. Actual wire out the side of a bed. Really time for owner to invest in new mattresses. Weather was as expected. Lovely!

Overall, very nice. (Repair the recliner)

One thing that caught my eye in the photo when selecting the condo. The recliner. It was a must since my husband has had two knee surgeries this year. First thing before unpacking, the recliner became stuck in the reclining position for the entire week. Also, there was a red stain on the sheet in the guest bedroom. Otherwise, it was a very nice condo. Lots of kitchen items, ice maker was awesome, lots of towels & bath cloths, the washer and dryer were very quiet. Fix the recliner, I will certainly rent again.
