I love the retro/beach vibe of the motel. The lovely lady that checked me in was so nice & accommodating. The room was very clean. I also loved that there was a pool on the property & the beach was within walking distance. I will definitely return again.

The motel looks old. But was very nice, and clean, my only recommendations would be to reprint the lines in the parking lot because it's important to management that you park between the lines.

The property was in prime location. Just a few minutes to the beach by foot. Literally five minutes. Location was perfect. You can walk just a few blocks and be in the downtown area where you can get food and drinks without any worries about driving. The motel was cute and vintage. Very adorable. Great for a few nights day. If you don’t mind a tiny house living the Royal Palms is the perfect place.

We stayed for 3 nights and really enjoyed Tybee Island. The motel is in a great place for access to the beach, it has its own clean pool, the room was comfortable and we had a little extra room with a coffee machine and fridge which was handy. the bathroom was teeny but the shower worked and we managed fine. The ladies on reception were friendly and helpful. I would happily stay there again.

Rooms are nicely updated and decorated. The property is your standard motel and a little rough around the edges. Staff is very nice and communicates thoroughly. The location is great. Our only complaint was that our room had no interior deadbolt or security latch.
