The unit was very nice and just as described online. Each area was excellent and so comfortable. The outdoor pool was very nice, too. Steps away from the ocean and near to many good restaurants, shopping, etc. We'll definitely return.

Great place!

We enjoyed our stay! Owner was very responsive for all needs. We had our code in advance to arrival, which eased my nerves of the possibility of not receiving one. Indoor hot tub is nice as well as pool. We loved the condo's patio furniture. It's nicely decorated and stocked with all items needed.

Beautiful condo DIRECTLY on the beach!

We had a great stay. Close to LOTS of restaurants, shopping, etc. You can walk to The Hangout. Would definitely stay here again. Only drawback was pool was under renovations due to hurricane Sandy but the beach was fabulous and literally steps away.

Perfect stay

This condo was perfect for our family of four! It was well maintained and eye pleasing. It was great having direct beach access, and there was a lot less people by this condo beach which sits near the fishing pier! Great fishing right off the beach or off the pier. Will definitely be staying here again!

Perfect stay!

Amazing location—being on the end of the row of condos down the beach created a nice, spacious beach location for us to enjoy! My teens appreciated the decorations and said they weren’t too cliche. Also, balcony furniture was comfy for watching the ocean.

Gulf Shores - Comfort, Clean and Equipped

The condo is one of the nicer condos which my husband and I have visited. We regularly visit Gulf Shores for an annual get-a-away. Being one of the last places before the state park allowed for less of a crowd and open beaches. It was a very nice stay despite cloudiness and rain. They also accommodated a mistake made when booking so that we could have an extra night. That was greatly appreciated.

Wonderful stay!

Everything at the condo was adequate and comfortable. If there was anything at all to say something about it would just be the layout of the bedroom/bathrooms, just a little cramped light fixtures in odd locations but, that's being very picky. Overall it was a wonderful stay, condo was clean very family friendly and I would recommend staying here and would consider staying here again myself.

Wonderful accommodations!

We had a wonderful time staying right on the beach! This is the last condo building on the beach, far enough away from the nightlife in town which makes for a quieter beach. Mostly families on the beach. Easy access. Very clean condo decorated so cute! Kitchen is furnished with cookware and easy to find. Great communication!

Anniversary Trip

We had a very relaxed vacation in large part to the fact the condo was perfect! We spent much of our time on the balcony listening to the waves & reading books. The location is awesome because it's at the end of the row of condos. The beach was never crowded. Everything was exactly as advertised & Rick was great to work with. We will definitely return!

Excellent location!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in 1003 Royal Palms in Gulf Shores. The location is great for families who want to avoid the larger condos with crowded beaches. We literally had our choice in beach location each day. It butts right next to the state park, so there is tons of beach available. The condo is terrific. The owners do an excellent job cleaning and maintaining it and we had everything we needed for the entire week. I would definitely stay in this condo again and will do business with the owners in the future, for sure!
