Private Gulf-Front Balcony | Drive-Up 2nd Floor Access | Next to State Park & Pier (Less Crowded Beach!)

Welcome to Royal Palms 206, a direct Gulf-front condo on the 2nd floor with a private balcony and panoramic views of emerald water and sugar-white sand. We’re local owners and are hands-on with our condo—keeping it clean, comfortable, and ready for a relaxing family beach vacation.

Perfect spot for a relaxing get away

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!

Birthday Stay

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

Memorial Day.

Very ideal for small children and the location was ideal for having littles on the trip as well. Simple check in / check out. Everything went smooth. No complaints. If had I to nag something it would be the public beach access people use and kinda gets in the view/way of condo visitors. Still not as crowed as you’d think.
