Perfect family getaway!

The condo was beautiful and clean, and the view is amazing! It was perfect for our family! We would absolutely stay again! Only minor problem was that the master tub did not drain properly, but there was never anyone in the office. Regardless of that, we had a wonderful stay.

Great place to stay!

This place was great for our group of 6. There was plenty of room and it was right on the beach. The staff at the Palms were very nice the whole trip. It was perfectly located in the middle of orange beach with a ton of restaurants nearby. The room had a huge balcony overlooking the beach and was not too far up so we could hear the ocean waves perfectly.

Great place!

Would definitely stay here again. Right in the action, and beach wasn’t overcrowded. Clean place with a large balcony and amazing view. Wife and I woke up to seeing and hearing the ocean every morning from the master bedroom. Couldn’t have been better!

Amazing stay.

Very impressed with the condo. Extremely clean. No trouble getting in. Comfortable. The balcony was prefect. Not a far walk at all to the beach. We stayed right on the beach side. Would love to go back to this place.

We enjoyed our stay. The condo was roomy. It needs updating in kitchen utensils. There were barely enough for us use to eat meals. Installing grab bars in the bath areas would really help. Otherwise, it was a great place.

Palms 515

We enjoyed our stay in 515. The balcony was amazing. The condo was cozy. The kitchen was not as stocked as we expected. The silverware inventory needs to be improved. Overall was a great experience.Vascas was great to deal with and even texted that the condo was available 2 hours early.

Great location

We enjoyed our stay at The Palms. It is in a great location with a short boardwalk out to the sand. The indoor pool was great on rainy days. We really enjoyed taking in the view from the glider rockers on the balcony. The property had upgraded their pool furniture since the listing pictures. That was a pleasant surprise. The unit did have a Keurig, which I wasn't sure about from the pictures or description. The master bath has a tub shower combo. The tub is larger and deeper than an average tub. The interior walls could use some fresh paint and patching where the furniture has scuffed the walls. Check in and out was seamless.

In town for conference

I selected this property due to the seating on the balcony. I knew we wouldn’t have much sunlight hours on the beach due to work but wanted to comfortably enjoy the wind and waves from the condo. The balcony was our favorite place in this unit!! The photos are well done and really sold me on this unit. Unfortunately there were several issues that I couldn’t see when booking. The couch was DISGUSTINGLY dirty. We had to cover it with a blanket and some extra pillow cases from the bedroom in order to use it. There was mold in both showers as well as on the vents in multiple bedrooms. There was greasy dust above and on the cabinets in the kitchen. This unit has a lot of potential but must have a deep clean otherwise it won’t have repeat travelers.

Girl's Trip

The condo was very nice. Plenty of space for 6 ladies. The furniture, decor, and the balcony were perfect! We spent every morning and evening on the balcony enjoying the view. The location was ideal. I will say that the condo was not as clean as I would've expected. There were toenail clippings on the balcony, hair hung up on a bedroom lamp, and a sticker from clothing stuck to a shower curtain. An offer to come by and clean the condo again was made but we didn't take Vacasa up on that. The offer was appreciated though! My only other complaint was that Vacasa was very difficult to communicate with leading up to the day of our trip. I sent numerous emails trying to get one question answered related to the availability of beach rentals. I received a response almost 2 weeks after my first email and it did not answer my question at all. I immediately replied and emailed again more than once over the next couple of weeks and never got a response. I tried calling multiple times also and couldn't get anyone on the phone. For anyone reading this, there are beach chairs and umbrellas available to rent right outside of The Palms. No need to bring your own! Overall, I would definitely stay here again for the location and the comfort of the condo.

Shaky start, but great stay and beautiful condo!

The property itself was wonderful! Accommodations were as advertised and the location was perfect. Check in was not smooth as the entry code I was sent did not work, nor had the unit been cleaned when we arrived around 4:45 pm. After contacting Vacasa, we received a code that worked to open the door and they sent a cleaning service to clean the condo while we went to dinner.
