Weekend getaway

We needed to stay in town for a volleyball tournament. We wanted a place with an indoor pool for our kids. This place was a great location, very clean, and had a great beach view. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Poor Property Management

Dead bolt kept sticking, making it very difficult to get in and out. Washing machine did not work. Multiple calls to property management (Vacasa) over five days produced no results. Finally someone came and supposedly fixed washer, but the next day it quit working. Lock was never addressed. Very unhappy with the way these problems were handled (or NOT handled!). I will never use VRBO/ Vacasa again.

Just say NO!

The property was fine the look into that management of it was very disappointing. When you called the helpline all their information that they gave at check-in and on the phone for all five days of our stay was outdated and incorrect. No one ever could give us the correct Wi-Fi passcode which is really pretty much unacceptable. And my brother's bed frame was broken and they didn't attend to that until our last afternoon there and they didn't fix it they just took it away. I'm surprised to get a review from you because I was dealing with Vasaca, so now even more disappointed knowing they are part of your organization you should really look into that since staying there I have read other reviews not very good.

Short and sweet vacation

We stayed 3 nights and absolutely loved it! We watched dolphins every morning from our balcony. It was clean and checking in was a breeze! Everyone was very kind and we loved being right there on the beach. My only complaint would be that their cooking pans could be upgraded. I had to go buy one so I could make breakfast- a bit frustrating as the one in the condo was junk. Other then that we loved it and would come back again. It was a great vacation spot!

Overall great unit

We have stayed at multiple units at Royal Palms and this one was good, just not great. Needs a little TLC and a little deep cleaning. We don’t watch much tv but wanted to watch some late night movies, the power cord to tv kept falling out, obviously it has been like this as there was blue tape wrapped around cord in an attempt to make it stay. The kitchen is stocked well and the bathrooms are updated, walls just need a coat of paint and floors could be cleaner. If you’re looking for a comfortable place to stay in a great location, this unit checks the boxes.

First beach trip as a family

We stayed here for our first beach trip since having our son 6 months ago and it was perfect for us! The condo was so close to the beach it didn’t matter if we had to run up to the room to grab something or take our baby up for a quick nap, we didn’t lose out on hardly any beach time! The condo was perfect for our family of 3, any more and it may have seemed cramped since there’s only one bedroom (the bunk beds pictured are in the hall.) Not an issue, there’s plenty of room to sleep, it just may be something to think about if you’re bringing littles and need to close doors for nap time. Overall we enjoyed our stay and will definitely be staying here again for future trips!

Beautiful Beach

Slept our family of 4 well. The trundle bed in the living room didn't leave a lot of space in there, but my son liked sleeping it while.my daughter slept on the bunk beds. The lighting in the master bedroom is poor. There isn't much room for your beach stuff to be brought in with you, but you can make due so it isn't left outside the door. We were given the wrong code to get into the pool, so we were unable to swim the first day while waiting on a new code to be sent, then everything worked well. The view of the beach is excellent and we saw dolphins every morning. We were able to walk the beach to the pier. The waves were a little rough several days, but the water was beautiful. There are 2 BBQ grills right outside the pool area which was convenient.
