thanks Carol,,,I assumed it was too far. I do like the Royal Palm for location. Stayed there back in 2010 or 2011?? loved it,,,but no exchanges into there yet. With the u.s. dollar vs Canadian dollar right now,,I have to use my exchange this year,,to pay for a place outright would just be too much right now. I do appreciate your comments, maybe someone else will share their opinion if they have been there recently. We always rent a car,so maybe will just have to not worry too much about actual location. The pics do like nice of the beach and view......will see??
