"Royal Palms Retreat" | Ocean Views | Dog-Friendly | Community Pool

Welcome to Royal Palms Retreat!

Royal Palms Retreat is a home designed with a great vacation in mind! The house is located in Laguna Beach, between Rosemary Beach and Panama City Beach, directly across the street from a 'reserved beach' where no development is allowed. Laguna Beach is a small laid-back community away from the congestion of PCB or 30a.The house is a great family gathering place with a bright, open floor plan connecting the kitchen, living room, and dining area. Enjoy outdoor gathering spots including a front porch & a lovely back patio area with a charcoal grill on the 1st floor along with a large 2nd floor balcony. The house is pet-friendly as well. With 2,000+ square feet, there is plenty of space for everyone to be together, have time apart & make great beach vacation memories. Enjoy the beautiful emerald waters of our pristine beaches just a quick 3-minute walk away or relax by the pool next to the house.

Sleeping 12, the 3 bedrooms each have a king bed and an ensuite bathroom. On the 1st floor, in addition to the family/living area, there is a spacious king bedroom and bathroom with a walk-in shower. Additionally, there is a comfortable Queen Size memory Foam sleeper sofa in the family room. The spacious 2nd floor master suite has a sitting area and desk/work station. The large master bath has a double sink vanity, a separate spa/soaking tub and shower. There is a private balcony with a lovely beach view. The other 2nd floor bedroom is an over-size 'family suite' which has a king bed with 2 sets of bunk beds with a private, attached bathroom with a shower/tub combination. Before you hit the beach or after a long day in the sun, take a short walk down Front Beach Road to Thomas' Donuts for their amazing donuts, ice cream burgers or sandwiches. Be sure to stop into the award-winning Carousel Supermarket and wine store less than ¼ miles from the house. Nearby entertainment includes: Pier Park, Shipwreck Island Waterpark, Gulf World, The Hub 30A, Destin Commons, SanDestin Outlet Mall, and much more. There are 3 grocery stores nearby & an endless number of dining options in Panama City Beach, Rosemary and many great options along 30A.

Our family had the best week! Seconds walk to the gorgeous beach. Plenty of room at the beach house for 6 people plus our mini goldendoodle. The beach house was cozy and we will definitely plan another visit.

Perfect Spring Getaway
Beautiful beach home! Loved there were 2 King rooms, both with bathrooms. Very short walk to the beach. Was also nice having the pool so close-the kids were ready to jump in right after breakfast :) We had a few hiccups involving the cable tv and the bbq grill, which were resolved super quick. Would rent again.

The house and location was perfect
The house and location were amazing. 4.6 mile drive to Pier Park. Carousel grocery store a few blocks down the road. Beach was beautiful and not crowded. House was right across the road from the beach with great access. We had a blast.

The house was clean, and looked like the pictures. Paradise rentals was easy to get ahold of, and eager to help. The weather was not that great, but there’s no control of that.

Not the best, not the worst...
Our experience could've been better. One of our guests sat down in a chair on the front porch and it snapped in half (luckily he wasn't hurt). On the night we got there we realized our refrigerator wasn't working properly. We contacted management the next morning to let them know. It took 3 days before we got a replacement refrigerator to put our food in. We normally don't eat out very much. We like to spend as much time on the beach as possible. We normally go out to the store and buy food for the week on our first night there. Since the fridge was messed up, we couldn't buy food for 3 days until they replaced the fridge. This caused us a lot of headache and time wasted. It was 4th of July weekend when we got there, so every restaurant was packed, and we had to wait 2 hours to be seated for every meal. If our fridge was working, and we were able to buy food to cook there, we would have saved ourselves a LOT of time and hassle. Also there were a bunch of beer cans left behind the back porch by someone. The master bedroom's balcony door was messed up and was unable to lock, which really messed up the peace of mind of one of our guests... Also the listing said pet friendly, and once we made the reservation, we find out there's an additional pet fee. Why isn't this already included in a "pet friendly" home? Very misleading... There were some good things, however. The location was nice, decent neighborhood, no eye sores in the immediate area. Also the walk to the beach was very short, and the pool was nice. This was our first time getting a house, we normally get a condo in Destin every year. While our experience wasn't terrible, it certainly left a lot to be desired.

Whirlpool tub malfunctioned without even using it!
Back deck flooring rotted. Sellers could have a law suit on their if not addressed soon. Had to wait a full day to get a response from maintenance to come out. Master bath floor flooded from tub and leaked down to kitchen ceiling. A good thing husband knew to shut the power off at the electrical panel. Would still be mopping up water! Have not heard from agency on what they could do for us to compensate us! Will not rent from agency ever!

Proximity to ocean
Overall it was a great experience, however the only complaint is the cleanliness. After a long day of driving we were ready for bed and the bedroom downstairs had a ton of pet hair on everything...sheets, mattress cover, pillows, etc. There was pet hair and stains on the decorative throw pillows and place mats, etc. A big piece of bread was left on the kitchen floor, and we had a couple roach friends. If it wasnt for those things it would have been an A+.

Awesome house and location, right across the street from the beach!!
The rental management company sent us a 4 digit code and it should have been a 6 digit code to get in... not sure what happened there! Luckily the after hours guy had the code for us! Otherwise, it was an awesome house, really well stocked with supplies/beach toys/beach cart and plenty of beds! Beautiful home with great finishes, you can tell the owners use the house personally which is awesome. RIGHT across the street from the beach access. No condos nearby so it’s super private and lovely ☺️

Great house with plenty of room for our family. Clean and well kept, really close to the beach. We enjoyed the grill and kitchen, too cold during our stay to use the pool. We also booked a beach bonfire, which was a blast...We would stay here again for sure!

Great vacation
This property was a great location. Despite not being directly on the beach it was only a short walk across the street. The cleaning of the house was lacking a little but it was still a comfortable stay and the property manager helped out. If you are looking to spend a lot of time at the pool I wouldn’t really recommend this location but if beach time is most important it is great.

Great house close to the beach
The house is just as beautiful in person as the pictures online show it to be, however, there are a few updates that need to be done. All of the beds were comfortable, except for the sofa bed. The neighborhood was nice, and the walk to the beach was just a few minutes, and the beach was not very crowded (and we loved that). Overall, we would definitely stay at this house again.
