"The condo provided was fantastic! It was clean and in great condition, almost everything worked very well (one of the TV remotes didn't work, but it was a non-issue since we didn't care to watch TV there), and the view of the beach was amazing! It's in a very pedestrian friendly area, too. The staff were also very polite and professional. We were able to receive and return our key without any issues. I can definitely picture coming back here again next year!"

On The Beach-Great View- 1 Mile To Hangout-Hot tub

10/10 Excellent

"Crystal Shores was a great place to stay and has become my new favorite. The condo was the perfect size for 2 people. We did t really need the second bedroom and bathroom but it was so nice for my husband and I to have separate bathrooms and I used the second bedroom for all my luggage and extras. The place was very clean. Check in and check out process was simple. My favorite thing about this place is the beach access…..very short distance from the condo to the water’s edge and not crowded at all. Also perfect view from the balcony with comfortable seating. The only negative I have about this unit is the shower heads…..very little pressure and we couldn’t adjust it. But it worked and all the positives definitely outweighed this. Will definitely be back!!"

One Bedroom, one bath Beachfront renovated Condo available August and Fall.

10/10 Excellent

"I got this place for my first ever solo vacation anywhere and I chose this place because pictured showed a balcony with a beautiful view of the Gulf and was an elevator ride from the Beach. This place for the price was absolutely perfect. I sat and read on the balcony and relaxed on the couch and still had a beautiful view while I relaxed and read and took in the ocean breeze. This place was a whole 13 minutes drive from the Gulf shores airport to toes in the sand. I stayed from Thursday to Sunday I was able to check in early and had a bunch of fresh seafood options within 15 minutes drive from the VRBO. Check in was easy and I had the address and the code for the place and the beach in advance of my flight so I could better prepare and really helped make it a ln easy experience. There were bunk beds that I did not need because I was on my own but they'd sleep someone 6ft or below okay. Kitchen had plenty of cooking implements though I ate out for every meal. The elevator did not work the whole first day but this was not a fault of the host at all and it was working the whole rest of the time and didn't feel sketchy at all. All in all a fantastic place not too big but still plenty spacious for 1-4 people. Pool seemed nice but I never went because the beach is right there. The water was crystal clear. I walked the beach at night and it was beautiful. You get sunrise and sunset. It was a full moon and I got to see the moonlight on the Gulf which was gorgeous 10/10"

Top-Rated Comfort – Guest-Praised "Nicest unit" – Gulf Front – Two King Beds

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were very clean and stocked with everything we needed. We enjoyed our time so much and hopefully can stay again soon!"

RESORT-STYLE POOL, DIRECT BEACH ACCESS!

8/10 Good

"Over all it is an awesome property. An extremely clean and very comfortable condo. Great pool and right on the beach. Everything was great but the owners or the property management company are pretty chintzy when it comes to towels (4), toilet paper (1 roll per bathroom), paper towels (1 roll), etc. And the quality of the paper products was the cheapest possible. If you plan on renting this condo you need to bring your own."
