Wonderful

View was wonderful. Key to door had to be jiggled at times to open. Bed was very uncomfortable. Needs new mattress. Comforter did not fit bed.Could see box springs .Living rood furniture needs replaced. Worn and uncomfortable Furniture through the condo is too big and dark for beachside condo.
CSW is our favorite place to stay in Gulfshores. Its close to all sorts of shopping as well as entertainment and great food. A short drive to Pensacola youll find CJ's which is excellent breakfast and lunch. I highly recommend the drive.

Rental was perfect, right on the beach, very clean and comfortable. We will definitely be back. One of our favorite rentals so far. My only suggestion is for them to upgrade the bathroom towels. The towels looked and felt like they came from a pay by the hour motel. Other than that, AWESOME!
My family and I really enjoyed our time!! Great view right on the Gulf!! Great place to stay...roomy enough for everyone
We loved it!!

We’ve stayed at this location before and both times had an elevator down. Very inconvenient when property is full.
This was an amazing property with little to no crowds. Plan on making this a yearly thing.

Very beautiful location right on the beach! Condo needs a little updating it. Don't feel like a beach condo!
The room was very very clean and big we had plenty of room for the four of us. Of course there are some updates I could happen little things like paint. The showerheads are really strong great for getting the sand off of you but kind of feels like you’re being washed by a power washer. The balcony is huge. We did a lot of the place and we will be back!!
Cute place, loved that both beds were king sized. Some extra towels & hangers would be nice in the closets. But overall, super cute, clean, well kept.

Overall the stay was wonderful. The elevators could have been better they were super slow and always had a line. The entry door to our co do was super hard to open and close. The shower heads in both bathrooms sprayed so hard that if we we sunburned I don’t think we could have taken showers 😳

Reviewer Comments:
I stay at different condos 4 times a year. This one has the best view hands down. The condo is not unlike many others in design so it is nice to feel like coming home. HOWEVER! Inconvenience should not be experienced when a 4 night stay exceeds my monthly mortgage. Spring break and the beach was full this means this building has a lot of renters. We were down to one elevator so the wait to move between floors was unreal, one may have to ride down to go up because the wait was so long. Friday-NO ELEVATORS and rain so 13 flights to walk again. One lady slipped in the stairwell due to the dampness and broke her leg. Then back to one working elevator for the remainder. Many times having to pass the open elevator door due to over crowding including, An AC unit going up, A mini fridge and unknown furniture. The low stars are due to this issue not directed to the rental people nor the condo itself. I would recommend to a friend IF the rental agency warned of ongoing issues and fix dates. If I rented a car that wasn't in top shape, I would bring it back.

We had a wonderful week at Crystal Shores West. Very nice condo with a gorgeous view from the 13th floor.
We stay at Crystal shores west 3-4 times a year. This is the 1st time ever through gulf shores rentals. They are the absolute rudest people. They don't want to help you at all. We were told they automatically charge you for 2 parking passes but if 1 is not needed then tell them when you arrive to pick up the keys. So we went inside to tell them and the rude woman said theirs nothing she can do because she already written the room number on the piece of paper you hang from your mirror. I asked the Lady the code to the pool and she said she didn't know, to look in the packet that it should be in there as I informed her the reason I was asking is because it was not in the packet and not only did the woman at the front desk not know the code, she didn't try to get it. Absolutely terrible. All other people you rent from, they email you the punch code to get it and you don't have to go anywhere and pick up a key
The property was great, but we had to stay in the middle of hurricane IDA because we couldn’t get a refund. So we couldn’t swim at all. Pool was closed and so was the beach. Most of the shops were closed. So there wasn’t much to do. But the property was good.
