Okay, I'll admit that it is dated but, it's a beach motel so I don't know what some of the other reviewers are expecting. It is reasonably priced (espeically for being so close to the beach), wicked close to the beach (maybe about a block or two - go down a light, turn right, go down a wee bit, and... More

I stayed here with my 4 kids (ages 4 5 7 & 8) I was really pleased for the most part with our stay! The staff is incredibly friendly y'all. The lady at the front desk was warm & inviting on the phone. Very sweet & down to earth at check in. The housekeeper was VERY NICE to my kids... More

Rooms are very small and very dated. Door does not close tight and day light along with air enters room. Thought it was pricy for the time of year, it is near the beach so it expains the price. I guess if the beach is your priority, you can handle the room. Was not dirty but not real clean.

We visit Tybee a couple times a year and we have been really happy with this place. It is not fancy by any means but it was clean and I felt safe there. The only downfalls to the place are the small parking lot & it could use new beds but other than that we really can't complain. I reserved... More

We really enjoyed our stay here. Nice atmosphere and just the right walking distance to everything without being right in the middle of the crowd. Cold A/C. Only mini-complaint was parking spaces were based on mini-cars.

Very basic, extremely clean rooms. The pool is very nice and clean, too. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. It's fairly close to the beach but it was too far to walk with all our stuff - chairs, cooler, etc. The are lots of parking spaces near the beach on the side streets. We would definitely come back!

The Royal Palm Motel is a small family owned and operated motel that is located one block from the ocean on Tybee Island. It is an old, but well maintained property. We like for our guests to be informed that the rooms are "nothing fancy", but are clean and comfortable. All of our rooms include a fridge, microwave, mini coffee pot, bathroom, TV with cable, and air conditioning. We have a 20'X40' swimming pool. We strive to maintain a family style atmosphere, so we do not allow parties, loud music, or overcrowding of rooms. Parking is free, but limited to one vehicle per room.We have a 48 hour cancellation policy. We have a 2 night minimum for reservations any time and a 3 night minimum during holiday periods.Sorry, but pets are not allowed in the rooms or on the beach on Tybee Island. ... more   less
