Cleanliness of the unit could have been better overall. We had to shake sand out of the carpets when we got there. They were just dirty. The beds could use an actual comforter rather than just the thin sheets they use. They also didn’t provide a comforter for the pull out bed. Overall a nice unit with a view and we would stay again.

The location was amazing! We loved staying here and look forward to coming back for sure! The only issues we had were the hot water in the hall bathroom sink did not work, and the toaster did not work. Condo needs a bit of updating, but overall an excellent stay!Also, communication with the hosts was excellent as well!

Of course the view is great and location--but this condo is in need of upgrades. Having a full set of sheets on a mattress shouldn't be an issue with their rental management company.

Great spot

Great spot, right on the beach. A little cramped for 2 adults and 2 teenage boys but I expected that! Close to plenty or restaurants and shops. Elevator is really close to the unit and it was never slow (that's usually a common problem at condos we have stayed at before). Pools are a little small but still enjoyable. All in all, it was a great place and it's exactly as advertised.

This condo was perfect for our little family of five! Everything was clean when we arrived. The furniture on the balcony was wonderful. Our kids ate every meal outside looking at the ocean. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to cook our meals. The pull out couch was a nice addition and was very comfortable. The only complaint I had is that the dresser had a very strong mildew smell. I ended up just keeping our things in suitcases so we didn't have to keep opening the drawers. We highly recommend any condo at Royal Palms! We're already planning our getaway for next year!

Great location...needs new bed

We loved the location of this condo. The condo was clean with good amenities. The only con was the mattress. It was worn out and needs to be changed. I ended up sleeping in the couch the last night. The pools were great as we enjoyed the indoor pool. The walk to the beach is made easy with the boardwalk. We would return.

Cute & cozy beach vibe property

Property was very clean & exactly as advertised, minus only 2 balcony chairs. Those are a bit worn & could use replacement. Maybe add a lounger! Emphasize entering the # sign for the keyless lock entry to unit. Made contact with property management & we were in within 5 min. Bed definitely needs replacing, uncomfortable & noisy, if you tried to stay on left side you would roll off. Beautiful views from balcony watching the dolphins each morning. It was quiet at the end of the high rise condos & beach not as busy. Covered & secure parking was nice with luggage carts to haul stuff. Close to shopping, restaurants, trails. Overall had a great stay for the price!

The washer leaked and when I contacted the property manager he sent someone over who could not fix it. Asked that we not use it. Offered us a discount for the inconvenience but we never received anything. Never heard back after that.

Communication with property manager

When we needed assistance with the operation of the televisions in the unit, we left messages three times and finally drove to the Vacasa office. Soon after that, the property manager did come to the unit to help us. In the meantime, another guest at the property also tried unsuccessfully to help.Later during our visit, the light in the refrigerator burned out, we left messages again with no replies, and had to use the light on our phones to see into the fridge.
