The Royal Palm is a beautiful resort and we’ve always enjoyed staying there for many years. However, it has shifted to more family friendly resort with lots of children. If your a family looking for a nice resort I highly recommend.
We have stayed at the Royal Palm several times with zero complaints, or issues. Beautiful spot on a beautiful island. Easy access to everything, and the staff are very friendly and attentive to your needs!
The property is well kept, great location and excellent beach access. Can’t review the food because we didn’t have any lunch or dinner at the resort. The distance from everything was great and the restaurants and markets surrounding the resort was great. Highly recommend for families traveling with kids.
The hotel was wonderful with a full week of planned activities for all ages. Staff very friendly. My only issue was the cleaning staff only came once during our stay and garbage wasn’t picked up. Was supposed to be every 3 days.

Beautiful views of Simpson Bay! Lovely beach. Rooms looked brand new. Super accommodating staff. The area around property is lively, you can walk to many bars and restaurants.
Our 2 BR ocean view suite was amazing. It was so convenient to many great bars and restaurant the beach is small but nice, plenty of chairs. The staff was friendly. It was very clean.
Just 2 little things why we probably would not stay there again - it was very loud most nights and hard to sleep. Also there were a lot of kids there and basically over ran the pool and hung out at the swim up pool bar. If you have kids or are not looking for quiet, it’s a great place.
Everyone was nice. Loved our stay. The oceanview 2 bedroom 2 bath accommodation we had for a family of 4 was great. The ocean view in the living room and the balcony were really beautiful. Although weather was windy and the beach water is a bit cold when you first go in, the water is so calm and clear, no waves as they are coves. The pool is heated. Excellent place to stay near the airport. It has a lot of restaurants around but we had breakfasts in the Cabana Bar and Grill twice.
Clean room, nicely appointed. Great views of the pool area and ocean. Breakfast out in front of the bay was really an unexpected positive. Family loved that everyday. Great location close to lots of restaurants and activities. Only complaint is the karaoke bar across the street which didn’t bother me so much but the light sleepers were a little impacted.
The room and view are amazing. It has a nice pool, although the layout is a bit backwards. The pool bar is in the shallow end and that is where the MANY children at the resort splash and play so it was a bit inconvenient; especially when pool water would end up in your drink. Maybe they could start some Adult Only times in the pool, especially during their Happy Hour. Other than that the resort was awesome and in a great location that was in walking distance to great nightlife and restaurants. Breakfast at the resort was always delicious. The shops on property were nice and very convenient. Would absolutely recommend and stay here again.

Impecable, maintained and clean. The rooms are huge with 2 large bedroom, 2 full bathrooms and a kitchen with all appliances. There is also a large sitting room with a pull out and we didn’t Even use due to the sheet size of the entire hotel room!I love that every room faces the ocean. The beds are comfortable. The staff was Kind, they weren’t out of the way friendly but answered all questions we had. The Beach is kept free of sargum. The neighboring Beach had some one Morning but the Hilton’s beach was always clean. My only complaint would be the noise from the bar across the street goes on til 2 am. This only affects one of the bedrooms facing that direction. It would be nice if the hotel included ear plugs and a white noise machine for that room.
