AMENITIES
The skywalk will lead you right to the gulf front beach club that includes one of the largest outdoor swimming pools on the island, complete with a mini lazy river, a gulf side hot tub and a large sunning deck. From here, you’ll have access to the beach boardwalk, leading directly to the sugar white sands and emerald-green waters of the Gulf of Mexico. On a cool or rainy day, you have an indoor swimming pool to ensure the vacation fun never stops.
Stay in shape while using the fitness center. Then finish your work out with a trip to the sauna. Grill up some steaks or wild caught Gulf shrimp and enjoy a cook-out under the covered BBQ grill and picnic area.
NEIGHBORHOOD
At Crystal Tower, you’re just one mile west of The Hangout, one of Gulf Shores’ most popular family-friendly restaurants and home to the annual Hangout Music Festival, now known as Sand in My Boots Festival, held each year in early summer. In the fall, you’re only 1 mile away from the same festival grounds that host the Annual National Shrimp Festival. Not only is Crystal Tower a great lodging choice for all the amenities, but it’s a great choice to be within walking distance of these festivals, it’s also within walking distance or a 1-minute car ride of local restaurant favorites like Bahama Bobs and DeSoto’s Seafood Kitchen! Enjoy the nearby convenience of grabbing groceries at Pier 33 or souvenirs at Alvin’s Island.
