  • Summary:

    Crystal Shores 501



    The Space:

    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.



    Whether you need to sleep two people or as many as six, Crystal Shores' two-bedroom condos are perfect for those craving a beach getaway. Book your Crystal Shores condo now, and let the relaxing commence!

501 Crystal Shores

Loved that the condo was an end unit with wraparound balcony. Spent days & nights on the balcony feeling the ocean breezes. Condo was located in a central location, family oriented & not noisy. Only complaint was the it had a very, very small outdoor pool connected to an indoor pool.

Spring break 2023

501 was a great property. It was on the end of the building so had bonus balcony area. The property is directly across the street from pier33 grocery so it was easy to get the few things we ran out of during our stay. I would stay there again!

Condo was exactly as advertised

Enjoyed our stay. The condo was very comfortable and well outfitted. The interior of the condo could use a coat of paint, especially the bathroom baseboards. A grab bar in the shower would have been much appreciated.

Great place to stay

The only issue we really had was we checked in at 3:00 am and they gave us the wrong room number and floor. We went to several different rooms until we found ours. None of the codes worked but when we finally got that taken care of was all great. Other than that the room and our stay was amazing!!!

Holiday at the beach

I would highly suggest this location right in the beach. Was a bit windy on the balcony, but very spacious out there. The check in and out process was the easiest we’ve had with any vacation rental. Quiet location. Accepted pets and had a nice grassy area for our dog to relieve herself. Note that dogs are not allowed on the beach in general in Gulf Shores. The kitchen was equipped with most basic needs. There were no condiments etc, but that was fine. There is a Walmart close to the location for major needs and a convenient store (Pier 33) right across the street for any urgent needs. The space was homey and welcoming. No major complaints.
