Our stay was quite disappointing overall, despite some positives. The location is excellent, right on the beach, which is a major plus. However, the room was poorly maintained and not worth the money we spent, and the service from management left a lot to be desired. It's hard to recommend this resort with the state it's in right now.

The location was one of the best parts of our stay, offering stunning views of the beach and easy access for morning walks. The room, however, was quite dated and in need of renovation, which really impacted our experience. While the pool was lovely and the view beautiful, I left feeling unsure about coming back due to some cleanliness and maintenance issues.

The room we stayed in was very tired and badly needed renovation. There were issues with chipped tiles in the ensuite shower, which felt like a health hazard.

Our stay had its ups and downs. The rooms offered stunning views, but they were in need of a deep clean and some maintenance. The beach location is unbeatable, and the pool area kept our kids entertained. However, some issues with water pressure in one apartment dampened our overall experience. While we enjoyed the proximity to the beach, we were disappointed with the cleanliness and the cost of the stay, especially considering some of the amenities weren't up to par.

Royal Palm Resort has a superb location and lovely building management staff who are efficient and polite. However, it doesn't quite feel like a traditional resort due to its many owner-occupiers, which can lead to a few unfriendly encounters, especially for families with young kids. The apartment we stayed in was a bit cramped, and we faced some inconveniences during our stay, including strict rules around the pool area. In contrast, one benefit was how clean and well-kept the grounds and facilities are.

Rooms

Our apartment was cramped but comfortable enough. It was advertised as partially renovated which meant the kitchen was fairly new; however, we felt it could have been slightly cleaner overall.
Service

The building management staff were absolutely diligent in maintaining order around the pool and keeping things tidy. However, requests at the front office were often met with hesitation.

I had high hopes for this hotel, especially since it was advertised as being absolute beachfront. While the location is truly fantastic and close to everything, my experience was marred by a lack of cleanliness in the apartment. The pool was also under renovation during my stay, which really affected our plans. I can't say I'd recommend this place considering the prices they charge.

Rooms
5.0
The apartment was in dire need of a deep clean, especially the carpets. Although we had a decent view, it was disappointing to find so much dust and lack of maintenance.
Service

The customer service experience was frustrating, particularly the lack of proactive communication regarding the pool closure. We felt misled and that our concerns about the cleanliness were not addressed adequately.

The location is absolutely ideal, with direct access to the beach and close proximity to local attractions. However, because the pool was closed, access to the beach was a hassle.

While the pool area looked great in pictures, it being closed during our stay was a significant drawback. The other facilities did not compensate for the overall poor state of the apartment.
