Pool

The Royal Palm Hotel boasts an impressive variety of pool options with heated indoor and outdoor facilities including a rooftop infinity pool with stunning sunset views. The access to the sea with its beautiful waters makes up for the lack of a proper beach. Sun loungers and towels are provided, however, some guests reported a shortage of sunbeds, especially if not reserved early in the day. Despite minor issues with maintenance and overcrowding, guests can choose from seven pools, including an 18's adult pool and enjoy plenty of places to eat and drink by the pools. The pools were particularly enjoyed by families with children, though some felt that the pools were too small, crowded or too warm. Several guests also noted that people would reserve sunbeds in advance and then leave them unoccupied for hours, causing a shortage for other guests. Overall, the swimming areas were described as lovely, fun and unique, though guests who preferred a more natural swimming environment found it difficult to access the sea.

Beach

The location of the Royal Palm Hotel is excellent with a promenade that leads directly to the sea. While there isn't a proper beach, there are various beachfront areas with sunbeds available. Guests can also use the beach at the neighboring Valamar hotel. The sea is beautiful and perfect for swimming, although entry can be rocky. The hotel-owned beach sections were inviting, but some loungers were dirty. There are bays and areas for swimming and lounging on rocks by the ocean along the lovely strandpromenaden. Breakfast had plenty of options and staff were accommodating to extra requests. Overall, the hotel offers amazing sea access for a relaxing vacation on the coast.

Family

The Royal Palm Hotel boasts a great range of facilities to suit families with a good provision of indoor and outdoor pools and gyms, making it perfect for a family vacation. Although the hotel lacks dedicated facilities for children, it is still suitable for families with plenty of space for everyone to enjoy. Families can take advantage of the 18’s pool, but it is worth noting that some guests felt the spa area was too noisy due to a lot of children present. While some guests felt the lack of children's facilities made it not set up for children, others highly recommend it for families, describing the family suite as perfect for their stay. Overall, families can truly relax and enjoy their stay at the Royal Palm Hotel.
