We had a wonderful stay in this unit. It was very clean and had an updated look. The views from the balcony were great. The owners were quick to answer any questions and made sure that we had arrived safely. Highly recommend.

Ideal in Every Way !!!    Jul 04, 2022

Our experience with this host family & condominium went above and beyond our expectations. Tracy is a great host to work with that is easily to reach; she checked in on us and made sure we arrived home safely! This vacation was during the Fourth of July and the view of the Somers condo did not disappoint! All week we enjoyed the lights in the sky ….This location is perfect for family fun and without the overcrowded area to the west; which allowed plenty of room for games on the beach! We will definitely return & be guests at the Somer’s condo!

Tracy and Brian Sommers's reply:

DeAnna, We are so happy that you and your family were able to celebrate the 4th with us and watch the fireworks from the balcony! We welcome you back soon! Tracy and Brian

What a wonderful place    Jun 17, 2022

review star

This was our second year staying in the building, but the first at Sommertime Beach Bums - we were so pleased with the place. The place was so well kept and very comfortable. We loved sitting on the patio and looking out on the beach. We absolutely loved the place and will definitely be back.

Tracy and Brian Sommers's reply:

Amazing how a chance meeting in the elevator lead you to our special place! We agree that the patio and view are amazing! Thanks for staying with us and we look forward to having you back! Tracy and Brian

This is our 9th year staying at Royal Palms, and we love our vacation home. We highly recommend renting this condo. You will not be disappointed. Tracy and Brian are very thoughtful owners to check to make sure you are comfortable in their beach home. So relaxing and quiet. We will be back for year 10.

Sun and beach getaway    May 01, 2022

review star

Great location with minimal beach traffic! From the moment you walk in, you can tell the condo is lovingly cared for. It includes a nicely stocked kitchen with accessories and tools to cook a nice meal to enjoy on the balcony. The dining table was also a great place to set up for remote work and provided a fabulous beach view that made me the envy of all my colleagues. We loved being so close to Gulf State Park. We spent a day bicycling around the park and enjoying the different ecosystems there. The condo is also close enough that we drove to Pensacola and watched the Blue Angels practice - what a sight to see! Thank you Tracy & Brian for sharing your beautiful condo!

The best vacation!    Jul 24, 2021

review star

Beautiful views, super clean condo with all you need to cook dinners at home, games for the family play, books to read and relax listening to the waves on the deck with amazing views. Communication was great and amenities of the property were a huge perk! Love the hot tub, steam room, and our kiddos enjoyed the indoor and outdoor pool. Highly recommended!

Fantastic!    Jul 17, 2021

review star

We just returned from a great stay at Brian and Tracy’s fantastic condo! The Royal Palms has the best location on the beach and my family agrees that this west corner penthouse is the best condo in the building. The views to the west are great, the decor is spot on, the beds are comfortable and the unit is stocked with everything you could possibly need. The condo was spotless when we arrived and we really liked the coded door lock, no need to worry about keys. Tracy is extremely easy to work with and she even took the time to check in on us a couple of times during our stay. We can’t wait to rent this condo again!

Home away from home    Jun 19, 2021

review star

This is our home away from home and another wonderful stay. This may possibly be our fifth or sixth time here. This end unit give so many more windows facing down the beach. There is plenty of room in this unit and the beds are extremely comfortable. It is well equipped and very nicely decorated. That being said, the owners are always updating their showplace. I have to Brian and Tracy are incredible to work with. I'm sure there are as many experiences as their are owners in Gulf Shores but these guys are a delight to work with. You won't be disappointed with the location either, it's away from the busy strip and there's a back-way around the traffic to grocery stores, etc. Enjoy!!

Beautiful and Great Location!    Jun 14, 2021

review star

Our family of four stayed here this month and it was amazing! The layout of the condo was perfect with kids! We could put them to bed and watch tv out in the living room or have a drink on the balcony. The balcony was bigger than most we’ve stayed in, and the elevators are super fast in the building which is always a plus! Tracy was so helpful and easy to contact. The condo was beautifully decorated and the views were awesome. It is right next to the state park, so there are less crowds here. We will definitely be looking stay here again.
