Welcome to Royal Palms 206, a direct Gulf-front condo on the 2nd floor with panoramic views of emerald water and sugar-white sand. Follow us on FB Gulf Shores By Owner.

EASY ARRIVAL:
Keyless entry makes check-in simple—no keys to pick up or keep track of. One of the best features for families is drive-up access to the 2nd-floor level, so unloading is quick and easy without waiting on elevators.

GULF-FRONT BALCONY VIEWS:
Step out from the living room to your private Gulf-front balcony—perfect for sunrise coffee, dolphin watching, and unforgettable sunsets.

🏖️ Direct Gulf-front private balcony with panoramic views
🏖️ Keyless entry for easy self check-in (no keys to manage)

Royal Palms is located next to Gulf State Park & the Fishing Pier, which means this stretch of beach is typically less crowded than many other areas of Gulf Shores. You can also walk to the pier and you’re close to all the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach dining, shopping, and attractions.

    We loved being able to park right outside our unit. No elevators to deal with. We had everything we needed, and everything was clean and ready when we checked in.

    We booked a last-minute, quick getaway for our family of 4. This unit was exactly what we needed. Our kids loved the hallway bunks, and being on the second floor gave us a great view and was still super convenient thanks to the two-level parking deck right outside our door. The indoor pool and hot tub were great for our one rainy afternoon. Having the protected beach on one side of the condo also made the beach feel less crowded.Communicating with Jason and Sonya was very easy and they were so kind and thorough in all communication and instructions. I appreciate the thought and care they put into their properties. We really loved the email containing their list of favorites and suggestions (restaurants, things to do, etc) in the area. We will definitely reach out again if we return to Gulf Shores!

    We have rented this condo numerous times! Always nice and clean. Very convenient to shopping. Beach views are incredible!! One wonderful thing about this particular condo is that you can literally back up to the door to unload and load. Highly recommend and give it 5 stars. The host is incredibly easy to reach and communicate with.

    The ocean view was fabulous. The room was just as described. Loved the convenience of the parking and the option of the indoor pool. It was also nice being near the state park. The owner was very helpful. We would definitely rent here again.

    The property is exactly as described. The parking situation was amazing. We drove a mid-size SUV and maneuvered without problems. We were just steps away from our room, so no waiting for elevator. The condo was well decorated, very clean and comfortable. I don't sleep well in my own bed but surprisingly slept well here. The bed was quite comfortable. We cooked some meals and had all we needed as far as cookware and dishes. It was wonderful having two bathrooms, so we didn't have to share. We enjoyed coffee and breakfast on the balcony every morning, while listening to the waves. The dolphins were quite active in the mornings as well, if you watch for them. We were there just after school started, so the beach was not crowded. Being at the end of the line of condos probably played into that, as the beach was more crowded to the west. We took advantage of the indoor pool and hot tub in the evenings. The owners were so kind to communicate and offer recommendations for dining and things to do. We tried a couple of recommendations. I hope to go again and will definitely stay here!

    We stayed in 206 and it was so easily accessible and we didn't have to mess with the elevator (bonus!) but were not on the ground floor so the view was amazing. Everything was super comfortable and convenient to everything we wanted to do. Will definitely stay here again next time we come to Gulf Shores!

    Excellent location. The beach is very private, while at the same time convenient to the heart of Gulf Shores. The condo has small bathrooms, but the wife were able to have separate bathrooms which was nice. Also has two bunks, so would be perfect for small kids. The balcony is great. Being on the second floor it gives you a great view of the beach and with a grassy area directly in front which prevents any tra

    This is a wonderful condo on the 2nd floor with parking right outside the door for passenger cars. Easy to load and unload!!!!! The condo smelled fresh and was very clean!! Jason, the owner, is always easy to work with. We were missing the parking pass, it was literally there within minutes of notifying him!! I have stayed in this condo at least 4 times and hope to stay many more!!!

    We couldn’t have asked for a better stay! Jason and his wife went above and beyond to make sure our vacation was a DREAM! The house was fully stocked with anything you needed plus extras (sand toys, nets for the kids seashell adventure, plenty of extra blankets etc.) they even provided a list of their recommendations to do in the area with kids for us! We can’t wait to be back!!
