Great view of the Gulf

Property had everything we needed for a great stay in Gulf Shores. Location was close to restaurants and shops and right on the beach. View from the balcony was excellent. Enjoyed sitting out on it and listening to the waves crashing and enjoying the gulf breeze. Perfect vacation with our friends.

Great stay!

The place was clean, with plenty of towels and cookware. Beds were comfy and the views amazing. We loved having frozen drinks/coffee on the balcony. Perfect size for our family of four! Hosts were responsive and helped remedy the only issue we had quickly. (Prior guests took the wristbands with them)

Awesome Trip

We love coming to Gulf Shores, and we love Crystal Shores West. This was our first trip to this particular room, and we would definitely come back. We had an issue with the toilet leaking, and it was fixed within hours. We love the location of this building and the easy beach access.

Beautiful View

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, comfortable beds, the view from the balcony was great. We had unobstructed view of ocean and great location for sunrise and sunset viewing. Condo had some small issues, one roll of toilet paper for each bathroom, dirty dishes in cupboards, one packet of dishwasher soap, needs repainting, biggest issue was sliding doors to balcony not working properly, the one from the bedroom was so bad we couldn't use it.

We had a great visit! It had stormed at beginning of the week but plenty to do around the area .

We enjoyed this condo very much. The Condo had everything we needed. Communication with condo owners was great !! They were prompt and checked in to make sure everything was ok. The facilities were kept clean. The pool and game room was clean and fun. The beach was busier than we are us too but great sand great to walk , friendly families and we felt very safe. We loved having parking in the garage. Always nice to get into a cooler car. I recommend this place highly!!

Perfect Beach Vacation

My family and I enjoyed a wonderful few days away at the beach. The condo was clean and comfortable. We had a gorgeous view of the beach with direct beach access. We rented beach chairs and an umbrella right in front of the condo and had only a short walk from the building to our space on the beach. Our son also enjoyed the pool once he was done playing in the sand and waves. The designated covered parking spot was very nice. The condo was close to several restaurants and shops and we had no trouble getting in or out of the parking lot. We were close to The Hangout and enjoyed watching fireworks at the end of the music festival happening there from our balcony.

Great Location

The property was right on the beach and very convenient to local restaurants. Just a few suggestions to make your stay more enjoyable: there are no beach towels, so bring your own. There were supposed to be enough bracelets for 7 people, but when we got to the condo there were only 2. You can purchase extras at the office. Bring toilet paper. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and comfortable; however, the utensils in the kitchen had to be washed before we could use them, and I had to mop the floor because my grandson's hands and feet got very dirty. Definitely rent the chairs and umbrella at the beach. Overall, the property served its purpose.

No bells and whistles. Just right.

Location is perfect. 1 mile east of The Hangout (end of Alabama 59). Open the access gate and you're instantly on the beach and less than 150 yards from the water. Indoor/outdoor pool and hot tub is very nice and updated. Workout room is tiny and has outdated cable machine and zero free weights. Parking garage is nice but spots are very narrow so if you have a full size pickup, it's tight. The spots are deep, just not wide. Our condo was great for us on the 6th floor with an awesome view of the Gulf and bay. While it was listed as newely renovated, we disagree. It does have what appears to be new kitchen countertops and tile floor throughout. Shower water pressure was very good, AC worked flawlessly. Beds were comfy. Both sliding doors to balcony were ridiculously heavy to open. No toilet seat lid on master bathroom toilet. Unit could use a weekend of minor upgrades to really make it "pop" but it was clean, quiet and secure. Wouldn't hesitate to book it again.

Great view, cute little condo. Perfect for our family. The elevators were rough on Saturday but that’s no fault of the owners. Parking was easy and convenient. Do wish there were dishes other than glass or breakable since traveling with kids but again we were adaptable! Beach access is great. The outside cushions could use updating and some sort of rug would be nice to wipe feet off. Otherwise everything was awesome! Really enjoy our time.

Great view!

The unit had a great view and location! Overall the unit was as described but could use a deep cleaning and some general maintenance. The parking spot is tight if you have a large vehicle but we were aware of that from a different review. Thankfully no one was parked by us for the whole week. One of the downfall of the building but not the unit are the elevators. There are two but they are slow and very busy. On check out day, we had to wait about 30 mins to get one to take our things to the car. Since you are on the 6th floor, it’s a lot of stairs to try to do it that way. Overall we had a great week and enjoyed our stay!

We enjoyed a short trip to visit some dear friends we hadn't seen in years, staying for two pleasant nights. The view was breathtaking, the location ideal, and the staff incredibly kind and welcoming. The condo was spotless and well-prepared for our arrival. Our host was readily available to answer any questions we had. We would certainly love to stay here again.

Great view!

The view is great! One bed is super comfortable. It did have everything we needed. The ice machine didn’t work, The Internet service is very poor in the whole building, And the door locked us out several times because it needed a maintenance call I did send a message to the owner and she ( responded quickly) said it might need a maintenance call, but I never heard back so several times we were left standing outside without our phones to even get into our room. The parking spot is very nice to have but It is in a spot where you can’t get out if you drive anything large like a truck. And then there is the elevators. We had to take the stairs a lot of times (The weight was horrendous sometimes ) and it was on the sixth floor so that equals eight flights of stairs, including the parking spots. Most of these things cannot be controlled by the owners, but just the building itself. The check in process was easy. We even got to check in early. Overall, it was nice and we all had a good time
