We had a wonderful drive on our way to Alabama when we got there we had a good experience with Bender Realty. This is our third time using them. We always have a great experience. Our room was so beautiful lots of colors so clean our view was wonderful from our back balcony. We were right on the beach. There’s nothing in the whole world like viewing the ocean from the time you wake up until the time you go to bed, and sometimes even in the middle of the night our granddaughters played furiously in the ocean and on the beach and in the pool and the hot tub. We will be using Bender Realty again because they are always so wonderful to us even when as far as to give us an extra day for a discounted price for which we were so happy to get but because we are from the state of Indiana and we had a huge snowstorm coming in. We ended up having to leave at midnight on Saturday evening so that we could beat the storm when we came home which we did accomplish, but by the skin of our teeth, can’t wait to see you again...

Manager's Response

We're thrilled that you were able to enjoy spending time with your granddaughter in such gorgeous surroundings! We look forward to assisting you for a fourth time!

Location of this home was perfect. We had a great time as a family and had plenty of space for the 4 of us. The home has everything needed to cook meals. Some dishes we a little dated and beaten up but stilll usable. The home was not as clean as it should have been but nothing I couldn’t clean myself. Cabinet handles and knobs were very greasy and a few items were left in the bedroom from previous guests which made me believe the bedroom hadn’t been cleaned. I personally clean short term rentals and the things I found are things that would be easily found upon arrival to clean. If you don’t mind doing a little cleaning yourself it is a great place to stay. I did mention the cleanliness to Bender and they said they would inform housekeeping so hopefully that problem will be resolved for future guests.

The location was perfect. Loved the vintage touch - will have to remember to bring a cassette or two if I stay here again. Only complaint was it wasn't the cleanest. Sand already on the floor before we left for the beach, and as soon as we turned down the comforter we saw a long hair. It was fine for our quick trip, but definitely not on the luxurious end.

This place was perfect for a beach vacation. Being right next to the state park beach made it less crowded than most areas. The facility was clean, had everything we needed, and accommodated a wheelchair. Security was good, pools clean, and our condo had a great porch overlooking the beach. It was nice having a washer and dryer in the condo, and was well supplied with cooking utensils. Parking was easy and location great.

Overall I was very pleased with Royal Palms 406. There were only a couple of things to keep in mind. 1 - The bunk beds are for little kids, there isn't a lot of space or headroom. 2 - The sofa bed needs a new mattress, you can feel the springs in it and it is not very thick at all.

I spent most of my time on the balcony, listening to the ocean waves and looking at the ocean. That part is awesome! I loved the location of the property. It was very close to the state park and the road that goes through the park and keeps you off of 59 for a little while, but you are also close to 59 so close to shopping and restaurants and not that far from the Hangout if you want musical entertainment. We walked to Sea n' Suds restaurant, so that is close.

There are loungers and umbrellas set up everyday on the beach, THEY ARE RENTALS!!! Not just to use. My daughter sat down on one and was immediately approached if she wanted to rent it.

It was good. The condo location was great. It's a nice small place, so you never have to wait too long for an elevator. I did however notice a lot of black mold growing in the shower. I called and maintenence was there within minutes to spray it. It didn't help much. But other than that it was clean and sanitized. I hope they get someone to deep clean it soon.otherwise it was nice, and a beautiful view.

Great location. No buildings east of property. Short walk to state pier. Construction on immediate west side of property but was not a noise factor. Plenty of parking. Realty description was accurate. Property was clean but there was sand on the floor throughout. Great service from Bender Realty. So easy to work with. Sleeper sofa sheets were missing. Called realtor and were sent right away. The shower in bedroom had bad leak. Drip was loud even with towel in bottom of shower. Could hear it through closed bathroom door. Left word with realtor about the problem when departed.

What a great vacation!

Unit 406 was extremely clean. There were only a couple of minor things that needed fixed and maintenance came right way to take care of it. The location was excellent. No building on one side of it. The state park very close by. Not an overcrowded beach. And beautiful white sand! A short distance from lots of restaurants and very close to Orange beach as well. We especially enjoyed dinner at Cobalt Restaurant.

Perfect getaway condo and location.
Room was perfect size for us.
And location of condo was ideal. Being the last condo before the state park, the crowd was much less.
Only concern was the boardwalk-several boards need to be replaced out of caution and safety for guests.

Everything was as described and more. We had a very comfortable stay. Bought fresh seafood & cooked in some nights - the kitchen has every piece of equipment you need and more! Comfortable balcony seating for morning coffee and dolphin watching. Even though it was just 2 of us, it was great each having our own bathroom - no crowding or rushing. Keyless entry was so convenient! Realty company was so helpful and got us all information needed for a great stay. We will be back.

Our stay was good overall. The only reason I didn't give everything 5 stars was because we could not get the TV to work in the living room, the master bathroom drain was slow & we did see some bugs in the codo.

Me, my wife, 18-month old daughter, and a friend rented this condo for a short vacation, and it was perfect. We couldn't have asked for anything better for a fun beach vacation. The bunk beds are short, so be aware of that. A kid or short adult is better off sleeping in them, but the pull out couch bed was great for our friend. Overall, I would recommend this condo for a small family or group!

Manager's Response

Royal Palms 406 is the sweetest condo for a small group wanting to enjoy all that Gulf Shores has to offer.

Condo is just like the pictures and is in a great location. Security gaurds were warm and welcoming. The floors were either swept or vaccumed but not mopped. I like to kick my shoes off and go bare foot. When I went to put my shoes back on the bottem of my feet were black. Yuck! I should have called Bender to send someone out to clean. Ended up buying slippers at Walmart. And only one elevator working was unfortunate.

Manager's Response

Thank you for your input! Royal Palms 406 is such a lovely condo and with an unbeatable view of the Gulf! Please do not hesitate to call our office in the future should you have any issue at all, and we will readily assist you.

We absolutely loved the condo! It was very nice with beautiful decor. We enjoyed the beach and relaxation as we celebrated our 43rd anniversary..We had lots of good seafood. Finn & Fork, Sassy Bass, Doc’s GS Seafood, Beach house kitchen, , just to name a few. Just wished it wasn’t so many chair rentals in front. We felt it took up some space for the ones that had their own chairs and umbrellas. I gave a 4 star on cleanness because of glitter being everywhere and I think I brought some home.LOL..Throw rugs very dirty..and exhaust fans didn’t work in either bathroom. Other than that it was awesome Thanks so much for letting us rent this condo to make memories. SS

Very friendly and attentive staff. However, the cable wasn't working in living room when we arrived and I was asked to contact the cable service which I thought was odd. I was able to diagnose the problem with a tech and repair was authorized by owner and completed within 24 hours.

This is our second time using Bender Realty to help find a good fit for what we needed for our stay. We had stayed in this unit for 5 days and it was more than wonderful! The staff at Bender Realty are very helpful and genuine. We were given so many recommendations around town and local tips! During our stay there was a music festival going on and we were given alternative directions to help avoid the traffic during that time, which our map didn't even show us! The view is beautiful, and is very close walking distance to the Gulf Shores State Park...there is a pier right there. The unit was clean, and very spacious. Some tips on what to bring are: tinfoil, coffee filters, beach towels, seasonings (salt/pepper), ice, laundry detergent, and a sponge. We used a wash rag as a sponge and actually just picked up some free salt/pepper from a fast food it wasn't a big deal for us!...We were made aware of the items not provided ahead of time. Items that are included are bath towels, wash rags, 1 sample size of dish washing soap, 2 sample size bar soaps, all kitchen utensils imaginable, clean/wrapped sheets,and more. The photos in the online pictures are up to date and appear as in the photos. The staff deserves 10 stars for how informative, nice, and accommodating they were! We will DEFINITELY use Bender Realty when choosing a condo to stay at in the future :) Thank you!!

Manager's Response

We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay in Gulf Shores. Royal Palms 406 is a wonderful condo with its close proximity to the fishing pier and local restaurants and attractions. It is our pleasure to meet and serve such wonderful people that come to the beach; please keep us in mind when you begin making plans for a return trip to the Gulf Coast!

The location is great - right next to the state park and pier - lots of open space around the building. Easy to find good parking. Small condo building, but great privacy. You can't go wrong with this one.

Royal Palms is in a great location-State Pier on east side makes it less crowded and more room to walk beach. Room 406 was decorated very nicely and room was very clean. Love being on 4th floor with easy access to beach. Only drawback was the very small bath rooms but all other space was ample. There was no hair dyer in either bath room, no coffee filters and no extra toilet paper.
Overall a wonderful place to stay. And absolutely the best seafood anywhere!

Being next to the State Park makes this property a great place to stay because you don't feel jammed up against other buildings and not as many people surrounding you on the beach. The furnishings were fine and the balcony furniture was very comfortable. The only reason I did not give the cleanliness a 5 star was that the floors could use a really good cleaning, but that was a minor thing. If there for an event at the Hangout area, you could walk there from the condo, and it is an easy drive to Orange Beach restaurants as well. We will be staying here again!!

We'll be back!

The only complaint would be, that the guest bathroom tub would not drain well and we could not use it for our daughter to take a shower. It would fill up to quickly. A very minor situation. Overall, it was a great trip and the place was also great. We Have already recommended Bender realty to some friends and will again. we hope to be able to use Bender Realty again sometime.

Quiet end of the beach. Property was rather noisy the first day and people seemed to be slamming doors shut and not considerate of others. Someone kept holding the elevators on the penthouse floors so the wait was longer than it should have been to get an elevator.

I love the beach and this place is perfect as far as location is concerned. It would be nice if the summer rates were a little cheaper. The décor is outdated and needs a little sprucing up. The bedroom is small and really has too much furniture. A smaller bed and less furnishing would be great! The dresser mirror is too low to look in without bending. I look forward to staying there again next year when all the updates have taken place. Hopefully they'll give me a discount the second time around:))

My family and I had a good rental experience. It would have been a great experience, however, there were some issues with the cleanliness of the condo upon arrival. The floors were dirty and there was an odor in the condo. I mopped the floors which remedied that issue. We found the smell coming from the trash can so we cleaned that as well. Once these issues were taken care of, our stay was great. I also informed Bender Realty on the comment card they gave us, so hopefully the issue will be addressed. I would recommend this condo to friends. It's in a good location and family-friendly. My family would definitely stay here again.

The condo could have been better. The outside of the building itself was great. (cleanliness, pools,showers from beach, board walk to beach) Of course, big disappointment with the oil spill going on.

Would like to say we had a fabulous time at the Royal Palms. Our stay was for 7 nights with 4 girls, 13, 6, 4 and 2. The property was clean and the proximity to the beach was ideal for taking our gear back and forth. Thanks!

The staff @ Bender were very cordial and helpful. On arrival @ property,I spoke with security guard,Mr. Gamble. He was very nice & most helpful. The next day a new security guard was there and remained the guard for the entire stay. He was very rude and over zealous in his job @ the property. His attitude and demeanor bordered on harassment to my family. As I was leaving on the day I checked out, I spoke to a man who said he was an owner. He explained that there had been problems with people not staying at the property tresspassing and causing damage. I can understand the need for monitoring of the property, however the guard knew were paying guests. I felt his constant harrassment was totally inappropriate and unacceptable. Therefore I could not recommend this property to anyone. I visit the Gulf 4-5 times per year, usually in Destin, and have never been treated in such a manner.I also felt the limit of one parking space for a one bedroom unit that sleeps six was not guest friendly.

Great Location. It was next to the State Park so there were no houses or condos to the east for several miles.
September was a good time to go as the area was not crowded.

I like that Royal Palms is the last condo on the beach because the beach is not as crowded in front of the condo.

Upon arrival to GS, we were booked into Sugar Beach and were surprised to see the only bedroom upstairs; my husband just had hip surgery in April. I contacted Bender Realty and within 20 minutes Pat called and had placed us in Royal Palms, a perfect location, perfect room, perfect view!! Thank you so much and our words of advertisement will be your best!! Again thank you!

As always, very nice place with excellent service and fair prices.
