About this property
Direct Beachfront • Massive Balcony • Pool & Spa
Summary:
🌊 Enjoy sweeping Gulf views from our 3rd-floor Royal Palms retreat, where dolphins are often spotted right from the balcony. The spacious, covered balcony is perfect for morning coffee, ocean breezes, and relaxed seaside meals. With a private boardwalk to the beach and an easy walk along the sand to Sea-N-Suds and The Hangout, this is a peaceful beachfront stay with everything close by. 🌴
The Space:
Our beachfront condo at Royal Palms sits beside Gulf State Park, offering a quieter stretch of beach with wide-open Gulf views. The space includes 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with a king bedroom featuring direct Gulf views and balcony access, a queen bedroom, and a queen sofa sleeper that also opens to the balcony, sleeping up to 6 guests comfortably. The real standout is the spacious balcony and peaceful setting — designed for slow mornings, uncrowded beach days, and evenings listening to the waves.
