Room was on first floor where balcony opened to a full bar patio from the restaurant next door. Tables were literally on the other side of balcony rail and they said they would have live music playing until 10pm. Stains on curtains, sheets and mirror.

We truly enjoyed our time at the palms. It was quiet and very convenient. We could walk to multiple restaurants and had wonderful beach access. The only part that I was a little bummed about was the continental breakfast. We will definitely stay again though!

Hotel was very clean and quiet inside. Complimentary bfast decent. Limited parking under hotel but there was easy access to other included parking nearby. Beach access and beach very easy to get to. Clean pool. Bars/restaurant on both sides of hotel quite noisy during dinner hours until 939-10pm. Only thing we wished we could've done is gotten an oceanfront room. Otherwise great stay

Perfect hotel right on the beach. They offer rooms with no windows outside (listed as interior room I think) so just be careful when booking to make sure you book a room with outside windows. The bars and restaurants right next door are fantastic. 5 stars, will definitely be back!

Overall good stay for a partially beachfront room. Lots of decent places to eat in walking distance. The room was clean and well maintained. Very little parking on site but they do provide free parking at nearby public parking. I would recommend and would stay here again!

Well, first the parking was not thought through at all, the door going into the hotel room. You could not hardly get open the door going out to the balcony I could not even get open just needed a lot of TLC too high for that price point in that condition.

The property is conveniently located, easy to find, and does offer beach front access and a convenient outdoor bar but few other amenities. The king room was adequate and comfortable but not lavish. Very little parking on-site; most parking is in gravel lots across the street and behind other buildings.
