Crystal Shores 303

When you arrive at your Crystal Shores condo in Gulf Shores, put down your bags, change into your swimsuit and head out to the beautiful white-sand beach. A wooden boardwalk makes accessing the shore easy, and because the condo is Gulf front, you won't have to go very far to start building that sandcastle, take a dip in the emerald-green waters of the Gulf, or just spread out a blanket, pop up a beach umbrella and start relaxing! There are also wooden loungers and umbrellas available for rent during your stay.

While you're downstairs, enjoy the outdoor/indoor swim-through pool, outdoor hot tub, on-site sauna, exercise room, game room and exercise facility.

In your comfortable condo, you'll love the view from your private balcony. Sit outside and relax while reading a good book, catching up on the day's news, or just gazing out at the horizon watching for dolphins to surface as they swim near the shore. Your Crystal Shores balcony is a great place to watch the sunset every night of your stay. Watch the bright moon rise in the night sky. Can you see the constellations? Pick out the Big Dipper? Orion? Show the kids how beautiful the stars are at the beach and away from the lights back home. It's not unusual to see falling stars streak across the night sky from time to time.

This couple friendly, two-bedroom condo is perfect for those craving a beach getaway. Book your Crystal Shores condo now, and let the relaxing commence!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Needs a good deep cleaning, if you went without shoes your feet were black within minutes, couch was so worn and cushions practically flat, washing machine and dryer were difficult to use because of sliding door, also the bottom of sliding doors have been wet and are falling apart leaving cardboard material in floor, also, in the laundry area a liquor cardoard box is covering what I assume is a vent . Only 4 bath towels, wash clothes. Had to wash them everyday after a family of 4 bathed. Light bulbs out in multiple places(master bath, above kitchen sink and oven light). For the amount of money it cost to rent a condo my family and I were disappointed.

Not the Best but far from the worst

I found it average. Whomever responsible don't pay attention to detail. There was a musty smell as we entered which was not a good impression after fighting the tech of the lock to get in. Took us awhile but we finally got in. The clock on the wall had a dead battery which I replaced. We planned on using the kitchen and the Hot Tub on the property as well. Didn't have kitchen towels so I had to purchase some. Also while reading material left there for us we learned we needed our own towels for pool or Hot Tub. This information could have been with the property listing. That is why I gave it and average rating.

Location nice description needs updating

Nice location however some things need improvement. First change pictures as the furniture depicted in your living room isn’t accurate- we even questioned prior to leaving and was told it was the same as pictures- it wasn’t. Kitchen faucet literally moves and needs repaired. We reached out first thing Sunday to notify you of such. We were told it would be repaired. No one reached out to us and we checked out today. It still remains broken. There were four bath towels in the entire condo. I thought that was a bit ridiculous. And you need to have it cleaned better. Our feet were black the very first day from walking around on the floor. Just some simple repairs and common courtesy of follow-through would be great. Your location was excellent, and the beach was enjoyed.

Thanksgiving at the Gulf

Property was clean, we felt safe. The management team was really great to work with. They were helpful and responsive when we didn't have the parking passes left for us at check-in they were super quick to help when we called. We spent 3 nights at our condo and everything was perfect.

Breach of contract

We were perfectly happy with the cleanliness ( even finding hair in the shower drain) we understand things happen. Everything was going well until the last day of our stay when we returned from dinner to find that someone had entered our condo without advanced notice or notifying us at all. After almost 5 hours of back and forth with the property manager we were told that it was a member of the HOA dropping off magnetic bracelets for access to amenities. Unfortunately when doing that they also deactivated ours leaving us stranded on the beach with no way to re-enter the property without walking over a mile around to a public access point . Offering only a credit for loss of amenities of $25

Overview of our stay

Overall the condo was very nice, best king size mattress we ever slept on. A few issues we had, the microwave did not work would blow fuses, called and the issues was not resolved while we were there. The sheets on the King Bed did not fit the bed properly, bottom sheet would come off during the night. Very worn and needed replacement. No dish towels for kitchen use, only 2 soap pods for the dishwasher, we stayed a week. Sliding glass door to the balcony very hard to open, no cleaning supplies in the condo to clean up the kitchen after use. Additional hooks and grab bars for Seniors in the bathrooms would be nice. Overall the condo was nice.
