Our first Gulf Shores visit!

Loved the location of this condo and access to the beach. The beach was not overly crowded. Gulf Shores is such a fun place with lots of great food and things to do. This condo could use some improvement with cleanliness and noise levels. The main pool tended to have lots of people by late morning, recommend going to the smaller pool.

The condo was great. Communication was very prompt and helpful. Didn't realize building was across the street from beach. But walkway was helpful.

Great condo

We loved this condo! It was clean and comfortable. The pools were great and the view from the balcony was great. The crosswalk is air conditioned so being across the street is not bad at all! This complex has great amenities and a nice staff!

Loved Crystal Tower

I loved all of the amenities of this condo. Indoor pool, sauna, workout area, two outdoor pools with hot tubs. The walkway across the road was nice. Beds were comfortable and overall we would stay there again. Could use some updates to the bathrooms.

Great view

Set up is great and the view is just like in the photo, just better! The place is clean enough and decorated okay- but if you don't plan to stay in your room much, it's more than adequate. Otherwise, the fixtures have some rust and dust, living room and kitchen furniture seems placed hodgepodge. Love the deck! Bring your own TP for comfort. No extras in kitchen like coffee pods, spices, etc., so you need all that if you plan to cook or drink coffee. You can't take the provided beach cart through the big tunnel. You can't take take it outside across the street then into the pool area with the gate code to get to the beach gate. Awkward. Beach umbrella doesn't work well. We did not try the big canopy, but it would be nice. All the beach supplies are a plus, but no beach towels; 2 beach chairs. Loved the pools and hot tubs! The beach is great, too (if no purple flag/marine pests like jellyfish). We drive to Pensacola one of the days, as they had green flags (mild and no jellyfish).

Fun and comfortable

We enjoyed all the pools, hot tubs and beach! Our unit was cute. Beds were comfortable. Only suggestion was to have more silverware! Not enough forks for our group...we bought plastic.

Fantastic Stay!

The space and area was great and the location could not have worked better for us! Each of us spent time in the various pools, hot tubs and of course...AT THE BEACH! The condo was clean and well maintained. We made use of the beach items left for use. The view from the balcony was wonderful! Thanks for the memories!

Our check in was online. Plenty of luggage carts to get luggage and supplies to room easily. Pools were gorgeous, 2 hot tubs, our room had beach chairs and a beach cart which helped getting pool and beach supplies to and fro. Room was very clean. I hope to stay here again .

Good location, needs updating

Overall I think this is a good location with easy beach access. I just did not feel the condo was very clean. A lot of the furnishings and pillows had stains and signs of wear. Shower curtains had visible mold. I realize you are at the beach and it is difficult to keep these types of properties in good shape, but it was a little gross.

Just as described!

The condo 906 was a great stay. Ample room. Easy stroll to the beach via the crosswalk; the only way to enter, by the way. We did not realize this and crossed the street from the ground, had to turn around and use the elevator...lesson learned! The larger pool had a maintenance issue after the first day of our stay, but no problem, there are two pools! I personally came for the beach, but used the smaller pool and hot tub (amazing). I would recommend using this unit. My biggest negative would be THE WORST TOILET PAPER EVER... Don't be worried to rent this Condo.

Nice (ish)

The apartment was sufficient for our family of four. The bathrooms were the nicest part - very spacious. The kitchen was supplied with all the reasonable resources we needed. There were a few snafus. There was no bedding for the pullout sofa—found that out on night one after driving all day. The Keurig did not work—found that out on our first morning. Both of these issues were resolved by the afternoon of our first full day. Then we discovered the dryer didn’t work. That issues wasn’t resolved until the afternoon before we checked out. (We were there for a week.) aside from that, the pools and facilities were clean and nice. There were lots of young families but we never felt crowded. The patio was very comfortable. Loved being able to see the ocean and the waterway. We had a quiet and restful week.
