Amazing condo with DIRECT View! Great rates! Check us out!

We invite you to stay in our family's home-away-from-home at the sugary white beaches at #906 Crystal Shores Condominiums!!!

From our condo, the beach is 'at your doorstep'... no long boardwalks or dragging beach chairs and coolers across miles of sand, parking lots, or street crossings.

Crystal Shores is a low density building with a large beach area. We are surrounded by restaurants, grocery stores and activities for the children. The area is quiet and family oriented. Walk to the Hangout, Sea & Suds, Pink Pony and lots of great shops! Beautiful views!

We have a very clean and newly re-decorated 2 bedroom, 2 bath condominium. This smoke-free, pet-free, condo sleeps a max of 5 comfortably... (Max of 4 adults). The kitchen is well stocked and has beautiful granite tops. There is queen size bed in the master bedroom and this bedroom has an adjoining full bath with granite countertops. The guest bedroom has a queen size bed and has a private shower/tub adjoining bathroom and granite countertops. There is also a queen size sleeper sofa in the den.

The master bedroom and living room both have sliding glass doors that open to your beach front balcony. The balcony has a patio table and chairs where you can sit back and watch the waves roll in. There is also a full size washer/dryer.

On site, there is an in-door/out-door pool connected by a swim-through feature, game room, exercise room, sauna, and assigned covered parking. FREE WIFI internet service.

At beach-side, come take a dip in the swim-through indoor/outdoor heated pool and hot tub. What a fabulous way to enjoy the beautiful sunshine and stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

After you swim, soak in the sauna, baste in the sun, then top off you day at one of the community grills where you can cook steaks and any fish that may have found their way onto your hook!

Great shopping nearby which include the Tanger Outlet Mall, Target, Wal-Mart, lots of beach/souvenir/special stores etc...

If you are a golfer, there are LOTS of very nice golf courses in the area... There is also lots of delicious food served at various restaurants in the area, water park, a zoo, miniature golf, Tract Amusement Park... etc. Details on all these sites/activities can be obtained when you arrive from the visitors center located very close to this condo on Highway 59.

This is a NON-smoking unit, NO pets allowed, NO exceptions!

*** I primarily rent by the week... Saturday to Saturday. There my be some exceptions to fill last minute holes on my calendar.

Crystal Shores address: 921 West Beach Blvd, Gulf Shores, Al 36542 (unit #906)... less than a mile from Highway 59...

Condo was awesome. Clean and well maintained. Had everything we needed to have a wonderful beach vacation. The only downside was the hottub wasn’t working (not the owners fault) but we still enjoyed the pool area. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Beach Week

Melanie's condo was a great fit for our family of 4. Terrific location right on the beach,. It was nice having two full bathrooms. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you needed for dining in. There was a small grocery/convenience store across the street which made it easy to pick up last minute items. The condo was clean, and beds were comfortable. We lucked out with a rain free week, and weather near 80 degrees every day. It was our first trip to the Gulf Shores, and we will now keep this as one of our beach vacation options!

Condo perfect

The condo was perfect, the pool was very small and not clean. We were afraid to get in it. There was green algae in the bottom of the pool and slimy stuff on the bottom of the hot tub. The pool was not kept clean. This was disappointing since there was red flags out for 3 days and could not get in the ocean! I realize you can’t do anything about the size but clean is another thing. The condo was perfect though!

We didn’t get out a lot because the balcony provided the perfect view and relaxation we were hoping for. We tried several restaurants but best meals were picked up from Blalock Seafood Market and enjoyed at the condo.
