The Palms Resort Motel Review

Of the three traditional beach motels that still exist, this is the nicest. The property is well maintained and well managed. If you want to be on the beach, this is a great option. Rooms are attractive and spacious and come with kitchenettes. Most come with a small dining area and have such extras as marble countertops and flatscreen TVs. Rooms on the southern side of the building are best. Bathrooms are attractive; some come with tub/shower combinations. All rooms are nonsmoking.

Facilities:
Restaurant; pool

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
