Never having been to Gulf Shores before I did a little reasearch and relied on reviews from tripadvisor. The overall rating is good and except for those few people you will never please the reviews were favorable. The reviews were on target, clean, well kept and most of all family friendly. We enjoyed our time there and plan to return... More

We come back for the pools. While the condos are across the street from the ocean, we have found that you get a better pool space. The individual condos can be rented through several sources. We have used www.vrbo.com and www.youngssuncoast.com. You take a slight risk with vrbo because they are individually owned, cleaned, stocked, etc. you won't be sorry... More

called on our way to the condo for instructions to check in since we would be checking in after hours. was told our 'packet & key' would be left downstairs in the deposit box and was given a 'code' to get in the box. entered the code (9:20pm) to find nothing in the box!! called again and was told "sorry,...

I grew up 5 hours from Gulf Shores and I have traveled extensively and can say, these are some of the most beautiful beaches you will ever see! The sand is as fine as sugar and a beautiful white color. Pros: Even though the resort was across the street from the beach, there was a crosswalk and the pool/beach was... More

We have stayed at Crystal Towers several times and it has never failed to please us. Each unit we've had has been spotless and each has a wonderful balcony which allows for some relaxing breakfasts overlooking the gorgeous Gulf. The units we have stayed in have had plenty of room, full kitchen, washer and dryer, and the perfect amount of... More

We stayed three nights in 1305 Crystal Towers. The condo owner was very easy and nice to work with. I was disappointed that this building is across the street and not directly gulf front. But it really had no effect on our stay. The 05's are right in the middle and have a really nice view - at least the... More

This is our 2nd Annual family trip to Gulf Shores during The Shrimp Festival. There is great energy here along with a safe fun environment for your family. The Monarch Butterflies are migrating through on their way to Mexico so that is an added bonus for me. Great pool at Crystal Towers! Oh, and a great value!

I found our condo through VRBO, but the paper work, keys, etc. were actually handled by Youngs Suncoast Realty. This was a fantastic place to stay. The condo we had was stocked with everything you could possibly want or need. This complex is located across the road from the beach but that's not a problem because there's an air conditioned...

The complex is across the street from the beach with an enclosed, air-conditioned crosswalk to the main swimming pool and the beach access (“Beach Club”). We stayed on the 10th floor on the end. Each end room has 2 balconies. One overlooks the Gulf and the pool and the other overlooks the Little Lagoon. The other rooms only have one... More
