The unit itself was five-star -- clean, comfortable, well-furnished. The facilities of the property were great, too, with the three pools being the highlight. Facilities on the beach, with high-quality chair and umbrella rentals available immediately in front of the property. Security at the pool was also visible and helpful. Highly recommended!

Amazing Condo in an Excellent location

This was my family's second time staying in Kevin's place. It was just as nice the 2nd time as it was the 1st. The place was very clean, kitchen was well stocked, the facility amenities are great, and the view from the deck is Amazing! Kevin is an excellent host and provides details well in advance. I would definitely recommend to others!

Delivered as Expected

This place delivered a nice combination of amenities and location. The owner was very responsive and provided plenty of information in advance to help with our stay. The setup with the multiple pools and direct beach access was also very convenient. Our only minor inconveniences were typical of high-rise buildings with lengthy waits for elevators during peak times and one unexpected short water outage.

A Wonderful Experience

The property was fantastic. Beautifully decorated, and we could not ask for a better experience. The balcony was by far my wife and I's favorite part. Watching the waves, the beach, and the cool Gulf storms roll in was enjoyable. Access to two different pools and the beach was easy, and fantastic. The shoe rack on the boardwalk was a first for me, and a little detail that was great. My wife and I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a great time!

It's a must stay!

The cleanliness was exceptional, everything looks exactly like they do in the pictures. It is very beachy, yet nice. Beautiful views from the balcony. The walk to the beach wasn't an issue. It is close to all the shops and restaurants in town and the owner is very helpful and easy to contact when necessary. I would stay here again.

Clean, Well Stocked, Excellent Choice!

This condo was perfect for our family vacation! My husband and I have exceptionally high standards when it comes to cleanliness. This condo was immaculate: sheets, floors, surfaces, everything. The kitchen had every possible utensil, container, and pan you could need to cook. Pool access, distance to the beach, and location makes this one of the best places to stay. We had 2 very small children with us. All 4 of us could walk back and forth to the beach and pools easily. The owner was great to communicate with and extremely responsive. This was by far one of the best experiences we have had on vacation. It is not a matter of if we will go back, it's a matter of when!

Best place we have stayed in gulf shores

This condo was all we wanted and more! The condo itself was updated and decorated beautifully. The view, access to beach and pool, and distance to restaurants/shops put this as the best place we have stayed in gulf shores. We are already discussing booking again for our next trip! Easy to book, great communication with owner, amazing vacation!

This was our first stay at Crystal Tower and we loved it. The condo was wonderful. It was clean, very comfortable, updated and close to everything. I was concerned about the walk to the pool/beach with 3 young children but we took a folding wagon and it was a breeze!

A Great Condo For Your Trip to Gulf Shores!

We stayed at Kevin’s condo for 8 nights and enjoyed every minute of it. The condo is clean and updated with convenient pool and beach access. The condo is across the street from the beach but you have an amazing view of the water and pools. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils, dishes and upper end appliances. We would definitely recommend and stay here again when we return to Gulf Shores.

"An Amazing Last Minute Trip to the Gulf!"

My family and I decided to take a last minute trip to the Gulf. It was only a few days before our arrival and found this condo. We selected it based on the listing and reviews. Upon arrival, we immediately fell in love! The views from inside on on the balcony were amazing and we could stay there for hours. The condo is beautiful. Decorated in a beach themed with updated furnishings and appliances. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook your meals. The beach is wonderful! When you are done relaxing in the sun and sand, you can enjoy one of the three pool areas. Two outdoor and one indoor. You will never run out of anything to do here. Kevin is great to work with. Always quick to respond and very helpful. The pre-trip planning information was very helpful and allowed us to be ready. We will definitely return and book this condo again!

Breathtaking Views, Great Amenities, Super Clean Condo!

We took a "Girls Trip" in May to Gulf Shores. We originally selected this property originally based on the listing and reviews. Our first experience was amazing. So when we decided to return to the beach, there was no question that we chose Crystal Tower Unit 1203. When you first walk into the condo, you immediately say to yourself that you made the right choice. The condo is inviting and nicely decorated with new furnishings. The layout is quite nice with two bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen is fully stocked. The beds are very comfortable with top quality linens. The experience continues when you are able to see the beach and the gulf from the living, dining and master bedrooms. The balcony is huge and the outdoor furniture is very comfortable where you can sit for hours while taking in the views. The owner is great! Quick to respond and is very helpful with suggestions. The self-check in process is super easy. All you have to do is go directly to the condo and enter your code. Now that we have found our vacation spot, we will be back next year!
