My wife and I stayed at The Palms a year and a half ago. The rooms were nice and we only paid like 90 a night which we thought was a good deal. The rooms don't always have a fridge in them but if you ask at the front desk when you arrive they will have one brought to you fairly quickly. We had a garden view on the second level and it was quiet. Couldn't hear the beach too much and didn't hear the road noise at all. There is security but here's the thing....the beach is very narrow where The Palms is....from their deck/pool area there is room for two rows of chairs and then there's a narrow path and then the water. So having said that everyone that passes by is really close to you so getting away from the sellers on the beach isn't very easy. Just a fair warning. The bar is expensive for the beach but there is usually a guy at the store that will get you cold beer and whatever from one of the bars close by. Just tip him. As well there are lots of places close by that sell cheap beer. Ossie's Jerk hut is also across the road so there is awesome food within a two minute walk. Also lots of other cool spots within walking distance on the beach.
