We were in Heaven, i.e., in The Palms 912, from mid-Jan. to mid-Feb.,2012. The owners are wonderful people to be associated with and their condo is,truly, "a home away from home." The condo is beautiful, neat, colorfully decorated, cheerful, spacious, new-looking, and comes with all the necessary trimmings, e.g.,beautiful and comfortable furniture, 3 outstanding TVs, and all the necessary utensils and dinnerware. The view of the Gulf is relaxing and spectacular. If you want to have a quiet, relaxing, and enjoyable vacation on the Gulf, we highly recommend this condo. We hope to vacation there, again!

Owner response:Thank you so much, Tom & Cheri, for your kind comments! I'm always pleased when we have guests who appreciate our hard work to maintain our condo to our own high standards. I do hope to have y'all come back as soon as you can! Gloria

If anyone is looking to rent a 2bd condo this is the place like no other. My family and cousins stayed here for a week 1st of October and let me tell you it is the best place that I have stayed in Orange Beach. The kitchen is so equipped with everything and even more that there is not one thing you could possibly need. The condo is very clean which is my thing most of all plus it is decorated for the right theme TROPICAL which is also my thing. The linens, beds, furniture all so comfortable. The owner is just a great lady to deal with-so sweet and caring. The over all condo, owner and everything else that goes with it is EXCELLENT ****** Thanks so much for sharing your condo with us. To me it is like my home away from home. Love everything about it. Thanks Gloria for all and will be talking to you down the road.

Owner response:Thank you, Toni, for your glowing recommendation! You will love it even more now that we have remodeled the master bathroom. I'll be sending you a photo soon. Many thanks, Gloria

The Palms "912" is THE place to stay when visiting Gulf Shores. We recently returned from another refreshing stay at Ron and Gloria's condo on the beach. As before we found the condo emaculately clean and professionally decorated. It was so nice-even our teen-agers were going around noticing the new colors and decor. The kitchen is wonderfully stocked. We found every thing we needed to prepare several gourmet meals. I have got to tell you I love quality bed linens. They make such a difference in a night's sleep. Well, I absolutely loved the linens that were on our bed. What a relaxing time our family had last week. There was time for the beach as well as sightseeing. It was very thoughtful for the owners to have so much info about things to do in the area. There are so many extras at the "912" - keyless entry, beach toys, chairs for the beach, washer/dryer, drying line for swimsuits, and the list goes on. We know we will return to the "912" and we highly recommend this condo on the beach for anyone looking for a great getaway.

We just loved our stay in 912. The condo was very spacious and tastefully decorated. We enjoyed being steps away from the sugar white sand of Orange Beach. My boys were thrilled with Playstation 2. The best part of the condo was the extra large balcony! And working with Gloria was wonderful.

A-plus, all the way. Great furnishings, beautiful decor, incredible balcony. If there is a better deal in Orange Beach, I haven't found it...and that's from ten years of experience!

We so enjoyed your "home away from home"! Thanks for putting all the thought and preparations into your tenants vacations! I packed according to my "Condo Packing List" (vs my camping or tent camping packing lists) only to find you, like none other, stock your condo for your tenants. Wow! I will definitely recommend you and your "home away from home"! We look forward to staying with you again in the future. The boys say they wont consider anywhere else because of the PSII and closeness to the "skim zone". Thanks for everything!

Our stay at this condo is one of our best memories. We live in Missouri and met our daughter and family from Connecticut there and had a wonderful time. One of life's treasured "Bouqets".

Your gulf view condo allowed us the most relaxing vacation we have had in many years. What a joy to walk out of the building directly onto the private beach or sit on the balcony overlooking the white sand and beautiful waters of the gulf. The accomodations were so comfortable and the atmosphere so peaceful, we hated to leave. We are looking forward to going back and will definitely book this unit again!

Have stayed here 3 times and loved it! Plan on going back this fall. The condo is beautiful & nicely furnished with lots of extras to make you stay all the better. Has a great view of the gulf. Miles & miles of clean beach for walking. Kitchen is well furnished with appliances, cookware, etc. for making your own meals & there are plenty of great restrauants close by as well. Many thanks to Ron & Gloria for making this a great vacation spot.

We stayed in this unit for a "girls getaway" and had a wonderful time. The unit was immaculately clean and stylishly furnished. Everything looked brand new! There is lots of space and the view is incredible.

Our family stayed here last year and loved the unit! It is clean and tastefully decorated, it has a great view, it has numerous amenities, and it's convenient to many restaurants and Walmart! Thanks for all the thoughtful extra touches...we'll definitely be back.

We loved our stay at unit 912 at The Palms. The view from the balcony is incredible! The condo is so clean and well stocked with everything you could need. Felt like home only at the beach! Lots to do...outlet shopping, great restaurants, dolphin cruise, parasailing!
