Family of 5 stayed at this condo and had plenty of room. We don’t spend much time here, we like the beach. However, we did try the pool area and the gym and enjoyed them. It was quiet and clean, well equipped kitchen. Just bring kitchen and bathroom essentials, they are not provided. Walmart is walking distance for any needs We used the public beach near Back Porch and walked there for a yummy dinner. Our favorite beach is Henderson Beach just a short drive and only $6 for car for the day, absolutely beautiful. This is in a great location close to many great restaurants and Walmart. I would stay here again.

We had a great stay at The Palms. Our condo did smell like bacon when we arrived and the odor lingered for several days. Also, the thermostat doesn’t go below 70. The kid’s loved playing at the pool when we weren’t at the beach. It’s conveniently located near Henderson State Park Beach.

Thank you for your review, Cody! We're glad the kids enjoyed the pool and that you appreciated the convenient location near Henderson State Park Beach. We apologize for the lingering odor and thermostat issue and will address these to improve future stays. We hope to welcome you back soon!

We enjoyed our stay here and liked the convenience of being on the first floor. We did experience a small issue with the washer, but we contacted RealJoy and they moved quickly to help us. The place was clean and super welcoming. Our kiddos loved their bunk bed and of course their favorite part was the pool. The kitchen is well equipped, but besides that the room includes some cleaning supplies to help you keep the place clean and enjoyable while you’re there. Awesome stay definitely a place for the whole family!
