This was the nicest condo ever! Everything went well, and problems that we have encountered in the past were not present. Sue, the owner, is very helpful. This condo is right on the beach, beautiful view from the balcony.

Thank you for leaving this review on our Crystal Shores Unit. You are the best renter and I hope your vacation time will bring you back to us !
Thank you again for treating our unit as you would your own.
Sue Wood
What an amazing vacation! Of course the sun and sand were great - a much needed escape from our Midwest winter - with beautiful views from the balcony and daily walks on the beach. The condo is fantastic - Sue has thought of everything! And much gratitude, Sue, for your timely and gracious communications and clarifications regarding our planning considerations. The space is comfortable, stylish, and relaxing - and convenient to all restaurants and shopping. I would certainly recommend this rental and and am hopeful to return again!

Thank you !!!!
I’m so glad your vacation time was just what you needed. Hopefully you and your Mom will be able to come spend time on the beach with us next year.
The Beach is my calming Place 😎⛱️
Thanks Patricia for the review !!
So glad the vacation was relaxing and I hope to see your name again for another beach time . Your comments do help other vacationers when looking for the best place to stay.
Sue
There are not enough words to describe how much we loved staying at this condo. The location is convenient to many restaurants and shopping. The building is so close to the beach! Leaving the patio door open and listening to the waves roll in is the best way to fall asleep after a fun day on the beach. The condo is furnished with everything we could possibly need. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of utensils and appliances - even an AIR FRYER. The king mattress is very comfortable. We enjoyed watching the Big 10 network on the smart TV while enjoying TWO RECLINERS. Having beach towels available to use makes packing so much easier. The owners, Sue and Billy, were so easy and fun to work with...very welcoming and responsive. They have obviously put much time and effort into making things welcoming for their guests. We would definitely stay here again!

This unit is perfect! We love it and hope to stay again! It is exceptionally clean. All the little details made it our favorite stay of all time. The small rugs at the bedside, hand soap in bathrooms, extra beach towels, the kitchen is fully stocked with all the necessities.
We traveled down to Gulf Shores for the music festival but decided to stay a week so that we could enjoy some R&R on the beach too. This place was perfect! Everything we needed to have a great stay and they provided beach supplies too! Very helpful!
Everything about the condo was great! Sue thought of everything. It was so clean and comfortable. Loved eating breakfast on the balcony and what a view! So nice being on a lower level. We had the best time and can’t wait to come back!

This is the third year in a row we have stayed at this condo for our family vacation. It is amazing! It is always very clean and it has everything we need and more. The owner is very responsive and great to deal with. The location is perfect. We were able to see dolphins from the balcony most days. I can’t wait to go back next year!
Lovely condo in a great location! It was perfect for our family of six! The bonus storage room and beach supplies were awesome! Property owner Sue is very friendly and quick to respond. We would stay again for sure.

Great location, wonderful and responsive owners and amazing week on the beach! This is the best VRBO property we’ve stayed in and very well appointed. The owners provide “starting pack” along with other convenience items…even beach towels to borrow! Couldn’t recommend higher - definite 5 Stars!

We purchased at Crystal Shores for the low density complex. You’re steps away from the gate to the beach - no long boardwalks, just pure white sand.
