The condo was great! Spacious, nice balcony, but no beach towels or wagon etc.
The bistro at the Palms needs much refreshing in every way.
The shuttle from the Palms is seasonal, only F, S,S when we were there. A vehicle is pretty necessary if leaving resort. Closest beach small & crowded. Henderson State Park better option.
Lagoon pool was pretty chilly in October.
Maa's coffee nearby is stellar- Posted: 10/12/2024

Real Joy's - The Palms of Destin Unit 1616 was wonderful. The place was clean with plenty of space for our group of 4 adults. There were plenty of plenty of towels for our four-night stay. There's a washer/dryer in the unit should you need to wash. The kitchen seemed stocked with enough items to prepare meals, but we did not cook ... there's too many great places to eat, including the onsite grill. The bar serves wonderful drinks, and you can even get them in cute souvenir containers.
CONS: BEACH : do not plan to go to the beach directly across the street "June White" I believe. It is TINY and surrounded by private property. :-( However, you can walk down the beach or take the shuttle to Henderson State Park. Note: Check on beach chair service before you go! My friend and I ended up purchasing chairs at Walmart because service was only available on Saturdays and Sundays.
UNIT: The master bed was to firm for my taste and the ceiling fan/light remotes need instructions.- Posted: 9/2/2024

Great place to stay. Pictures did seem like they were beach front but it was a little of a further walk, which was still fine with us. Everything was clean and it was spacious for the whole family. Great pool area. Would stay here again.- Posted: 6/8/2024

The apartment was very nice and spacious. Easy check-in but getting your personal belongings from parking deck to apartment was a chore especially because the carts provided were hard to maneuver. Other than that everyone was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the shuttle to the beach it very efficient and the driver is very friendly. I would stay here again.- Posted: 6/16/2023
Linda, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We're glad everyone had enough room and check-in was easy. We're happy to hear that you had some fun on our beautiful beaches and we look forward to your next visit. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.Real Joy staff

Cool
The resort itself it’s nice. Our actual room the TVs in the bed room were small. The master suite had a queeN bed other than that furniture wise could have been upgraded. But we we’re happy! The fact that it wasn’t upgraded- Posted: 6/1/2020
