Check in was at 5, we've stayed at Royals Pals for years always a nice stay. Unit could use a little updating especially the kitchen. Definitely would recommend staying here. Had 2 bedrooms which is nice. Our ac stopped working and Benders vacation rentals was fantastic to get someone to fix it immediately.

Great mini vacation!

We love staying in the last condo on the beach next to the state park. It’s so quiet and serene and great for relaxing. Will stay at this out again! Very clean and fully stocked (except salt and pepper…removed during Covid) so bring your own.

We enjoyed our stay. The property had everything we needed. Such a short boardwalk to the beach and both an indoor and outdoor pool. We used the grill one night for dinner and the condo had everything we needed. Would stay in this unit again for our next trip to Gulf Shores.

Amazing view!

We had a great stay and enjoyed the property and especially being right in the beach. The beds were comfortable and the condo was very clean. Was a little surprised by no sponge in the kitchen which made it a little hard to clean the pots and pans but otherwise it was great.

Great Mom’s Getaway!

Despite the looming threat of tropical storms, the beach being closed to dangerous rip currents our stay at Royal Palms was just the relaxing break we craved. The condo was so inviting, provided everything we needed, was comfortable and clean. The balcony became our favorite place for our 4-day stay, as the property is perfectly situated next to the state park, which was quiet and somewhat secluded. Will definitely come back!
