Beautiful, spacious, could use more cleaning

The view was amazing, the bed was super comfortable, and I loved how much space there was. It was perfect for our family of 6. The bathrooms did need a good cleaning.

Disappointed in the cleanliness.

This property is one of our favorites but the room was dirty. If you walk around barefoot your feet will be black within 3 minutes.

1209 Crystal Tower

The home is nice and each room had a great view from the windows. All the amenities worked just fine and the home even had a toaster for the kids (waffles/pancakes). The rooms were all an adequate size including the bedrooms and bathrooms. The beds were comfortable and the balcony view is amazing (ocean view). It is nice and easy access the beach and no issues parking at Crystal Tower. We enjoyed our stay and everything worked out fine. The only thing that caught us off guard was the noise the dryer was emitting when in use. The appliance works fine just the noise it makes when it is in use. The bathroom shower temperature was great and loved the double sinks in the bath. The space was nice enough where everyone could stretch out for privacy/relax or come together for meals at the table/high top area. Great location and great setup of the home.

Perfect place to stay in Gulf Shores

We loved our time in Crystal Tower 1209. Check in and out was a breeze, apartment was roomy, super clean, and well stocked. The patio was larger than expected, which was terrific. Great place to stay for an easy beach vacation. I would absolutely stay here again. Loved it!

Quick Beach Trip

We booked Crystal Tower 1209 because we were in town for our daughter's volleyball tournament. The condo was clean, updated and had amazing views of the Gulf, Little Lagoon and sunsets. While the weather wasn't as cooperative as we'd hoped, the condo was fantastic! We highly recommend and would absolutely choose Crystal Tower 1209 again!

I would stay in this unit again but….

Overall we enjoyed our stay, but a few things need some attention. 1. A pizza box from May 2023 was left in the floor beside the dryer. 2. Shower does not drain well at all in the master bath. 3. Light bulbs needed to be replaced in a couple of areas. 4. TV in one of the bedrooms did not work well. It could not obtain a good signal. These things are easily fixed and did not negatively affect our stay. Maybe housekeeping can be a little more observant. Again, overall, we enjoyed our time there and would consider staying there again.

We absolutely love the condo! We are already looking at the next dates to book. Clean, convenient, and great views. The condo was decorated cute. We love that there was three pools and a air-conditioned skywalk to the beach. Thank you.

Great birthday trip!

We loved everything about the condo. Easy access to beach, location is great, easy parking, and no issues with elevators. The “lazy river” was a little misleading, but it made for a fun joke. The view is AMAZING! Balcony off both bedrooms was fantastic. Highly recommend this unit!

Beautiful Condo

Condo was very clean and just as pictured. Kitchen was well stocked. We’ve stayed in Orange Beach but this was our first time at Gulf Shores. The location was very. My daughter and I found the one bed to be a little harder than the other, so I went and bought a foam mattress topper from the store and also bought a couple of extra pillows which I left with the box for future guests to use. There are bath towels, but no beach towels (which I’m not sure was noted anywhere), so be sure to bring your own:) Definitely would stay here again.
