Enjoyable Time

The condo was nice. The furniture needs updating the chairs were wicker type so they weren't really comfortable. The sofa and sofa bed needs replacing. Several of the springs on the sofa bed were missing. The TV in the living/common area you only got streaming services (no live/normal tv) like the bedrooms. But the location of the property and the cleanliness of the condo were really nice. I would stay there again.

Do Your Research

This was the worst rental experience I have experienced here. The property needs a deep clean, something should be done in the mstba bad odor. The indoor pool was taped off and unusable. The furniture was old and very broken down not comfortable

There Are Much Nicer Condos In This Building. Needs Updates!

This place could use some updates. First of all, like many other reviews, our feet turned black from walking barefoot in the condo. It is not because they did not clean it. It is because of the type of flooring they have in the condo. It is vynal planking with a wood grain so the sand and dirt from the beach just sits in the cracks. Next is the beds are uncomfortable and the sheets do not fit. We were constantly putting them on throughout the night. The also need to upgrade to a keyless door handle so you do not have to carry a key with you to the beach which is $50 if you lose it. Last, the best part about staying here is the balcony but the rusted chairs and no patio table makes it hard to eat or just relax out there overlooking the beach.

Would Not Rent Again

I have NEVER left a bad review, and I have gone back and forth about leaving a negative review on this property, but in the end I decided to leave one so others won't fall into the same trap we did.

The positives about the property:

1) The location. It's beach side and the view is great.

2) It's the last condo unit before the State Park, so the crowds are minimal. During Covid this was a huge plus.

3) The condo unit overall is on the smaller scale, so again during Covid it was nice to not be around so many people.

The negatives about the property:

1) It's filthy. There is mold on the ceiling in the master bedroom. There is mold in the shower doors in the master bedroom. As true to other reviews - our feet (and socks and slippers) were so black from walking around the condo.

2) The furniture (and beds) are old and not well cared for. We didn't even sit on the couch - instead we put a sheet over it and then sat on it.

3) This unit is not kept up and everything in it needs some serious love.

So why did we book this property:

We made a last minute trip to the beach and didn't book the unit until the night before our trip. Despite reading all of the prior reviews, we thought "how bad can it really be" and since it was beach side we thought we'd take the risk. When checking in I did ask the property management company if the unit was indeed as bad as past reviews indicated, would they send someone out to re-clean. I was told the chances of that happening were slim because they were having a hard time keeping staff employed with unemployment paying so well during Covid.

In the end, booking this condo was NOT a wise risk. We spent almost all of our four day stay outside on the beach or the balcony of the unit as to avoid being inside the unit. Don't make the same mistake we did and book this unit.

Disappointed In Royal Palms 1305; Happy With Rental Staff

This property was in extremely poor condition. TV in 2nd bedrm did not work; wall lamps in same room dirty & 1 had a broken switch. DVD player in LR did not work. Could not walk barefooted in unit because the floors turned one's feet black. Rusty furniture outside. Furniture old/dirty. Door to air/heat extremely dirty. Unit was not as clean as it should have been. Lanai screen broken & torn. Construction going on next door in another unit. The rental staff was responsive & helpful. Would never rent in that building again.
