This property was perfect for our extended weekend. The lazy river, pools and hot tubs were a hit with our families. Our rooms were clean and well equipped. It was in a perfect location with easy access to everything local. We really enjoyed our stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We were truly looking forward to our stay at the Grand Palm Resort, but unfortunately, our experience fell short of expectations. Upon arrival, we were given a room that reeked of cigarette smoke, which was especially concerning since we had our 9-year-old and 6-month-old children with us. Switching rooms wasn’t an option as we arrived later in the evening and had activities scheduled early the next morning. Additionally, the refrigerator in the room was barely cold—an inconvenience given that we had baby formula and snacks that needed proper storage. We brought both issues to the attention of the resort team at check-out, but our concerns were dismissed without any apology or effort to make it right. We hope the resort takes better care of future guests by ensuring rooms are clean, appliances are functional, and guest concerns are handled with more care.

Beautifully appointed, grounds, etc. Staff courteous and respectful. Pressed too much for additional activities or "perks". Read your audience. Bathtub not senior accessible, too high climbing over. Very slippery in tub and floors. Toilet way too low for ease of use for older folks.

Our stay got off to a rocky start but ended up being wonderful. We had to change rooms a couple times. First was only bc it was newly renovated but the latch on the door needed adjusting so it prevented us from being able to lock the door. The 2nd room wasn’t renovated which wasn’t a problem until we ran across a couple “friends” in the sofa bed. The staff were absolutely amazing & friendly. They were happy to move us to an upgraded room for the inconveniences we had experienced. This room was also newly renovated. It was clean, comfortable & beautiful. The beds were very comfortable. Master included a large jetted tub. The property was nice with a newly updated playground for the kids. The pools were clean and well kept. I highly recommend and our family will be staying again. I can’t say enough about how nice and welcoming the office staff were.
