I had an incredible stay at the Tropical Palms motel! The location allowed easy access to the beach and golf course, which was perfect for our weekend getaway. My room was clean and well-equipped, making it quite comfortable. I really appreciated the friendly and welcoming owners, Rob and Jen. The only downside was the size of our family room, which felt a bit cramped for just the two of us. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, highlighted by peaceful surroundings and beautiful views.
