Gulf Front - 1 BR / 2 BA with hall bunks, free WiFi, next to state fishing pier

Condo was great. Very clean and spacious. I wish there would have been more beach stuff but we rented a chair on the beach so it all worked out. View was amazing. Owner even checked in to see how things were going! We would definitely stay here again.
Our stay was wonderful. Unit was exceptionally clean. Would recommend taking extra dishtowels if you are a heavy kitchen user. Dawn dishsoap would be nice too! Would definitely go again!
Beach view was wonderful and we were able to easily access it via the boardwalk. The condo was comfortable and close to all the activities we wanted to do. Thank you for a nice weekend getaway!
The location hard to beat! At the end of the condo line made for finding a spot on a busy beach easy to find. The natural sandbar had my kids excited with lots of shallow ocean to play in. 3rd floor was awesome for people watching from the porch. Just a nice place to vacation.
Great locationThoroughly enjoyed our stayWill be back!

We loved our stay in Gulf Shores! The condo was exactly as described - it was clean, comfortable, and a perfect location! The beach was never too busy ecause we were on the "end" of the steip, yet we were close enough to every
Can’t say enough about the great location. Being right next to the state park provided us with extra room and no overcrowding on the beach. We saw dolphins each day. The condo is in great shape and parking was easy.

Another great stay
This was our second year here and looking forward to our third stay next year. The month went by so fast.
Property was clean, a bit dated. The condo was smaller but it was perfect for our trip. Beach was not crowded which was nice. Owners were nice and very easy to communicate with.
Condo was located just far enough from the crowds that there was plenty of beach space but close enough to everything you want to do. Just a great location.
We would recommend the property and hope to stay again. The only problem was the TV in the den/kitchen area. Touch the wrong button an loose connection
The beach was great, the condo is at the end of the strip so it’s much quieter than further west. Condo unit itself was kinda grimy, I changed the air filter on the HVAC because it looked awful, the grout needs a really good scrub too. But we were there for beach time and a balcony to sit on, so that part was nice. For the price it was good.
Our stay at Royal Palms was absolutely phenomenal. The condo is the last one before the state park, making it less crowded, there is a new condo being built to the west so there was some construction noise during the day at the beach, however it wasn’t terrible and provided extra entertainment for our son! The condo was very well kept, very soft bed, and comfy couch. Debbie was easy to get ahold of, we had no issues but wanted to make her aware of some chipped paint we saw upon arrival. We will absolutely be back next year! All of the condo guests were polite, excellent family atmosphere.
We were pretty desperate looking to book a condo for a music festival and paid way higher prices than we would have normally but we expected that. What we didn't expect was a condo that stated it sleeps 4 didn't mean 4 adults. the wall bunks were not long enough for one of the adults in our party who was meant to sleep there (she is 5'8"). So no big deal, there is a sofa bed right. The mattress on the sofa bed was dirty but there are sheets for that. The sofa bed was super uncomfortable.all the sheets were old so it made them rough as well. Otherwise, the condo was right on the beach and the amenities were good.

The condo wasn’t as clean as I would have liked. It’s an older condo. Left 3 towels for two people for 5 days. Bug man came to spray so we felt obligated to wait and let him in. Dish network went out for 4 hours, not any fault of the owner.
