Perfect location!

This is an adorable unit for a small family. The location feels private, while still being close to the action. The bunks are just the right size for younger children and having two bathrooms is a huge plus! I can't say enough nice things about Jason. He is super responsive and kind!

We enjoyed our stay here. The condo was nice enough. The view from the balcony was good, and the location was great. The bed was very comfortable, and it was nice having 2 bathrooms to use. We used both pools every day, and there were never a lot of people in them. The hot tub was nice and hot. I will say the outdoor pool was very cold, but it made the indoor pool feel nice and warm.

My family and I have vacationed in Gulf Shores since 2000 and absolutely love the area and the great family feel. There are a lot of things to do from Waterville, The Track, Deep Sea Fishing, Pairasailing, Dolphin Cruises and Horseback riding. So many wonderful places to eat also. We would love to share our new condo with you and also help you with any questions you have about the area or main attractions.

Why they chose this property

We really like the location of Royal Palms. It is located next to the Gulf State Park which is a beautiful pristine beach. It is also the condo closest to the longest pier in the Gulf of Mexico. The views from this condo are amazing and everyone agrees that it has the best views in Gulf Shores. This condo complex it very family oriented because of the indoor and outdoor pool. The beach is not very crowded so it is a very safe and a relaxing place to watch your children play on the beach.
