Cool place!
The Crystal Towers were a very well maintained property. The amenities were great, especially the private skywalk to the beach. Our condo has a nice view of the ocean and an even better view of the bay out the front door. My only suggestion would be to invest in new mattresses or at least some good foam toppers. The beds were extremely firm and we could feel the springs. Other than this, we would stay here again!

Crystal Tower is the best
I love these condos. This particular unit wasn’t as posh as the one I stayed in before (king bed and sofas could use an upgrade). However, it was perfect for us and our trip. And I would totally stay there again.

All, but...
It was all nice except there is no usable comfortable seating. The 2 couches are in aged disrepair. The brown one sinks to the floor...springs and cushions are shot. The white one shown in the picture smells of old body odor, as well as being so old that the cushions and arms are flat... So, when you return from a fun day, and want to relax in front of the TV, you will need to use the balcony chairs. There is no blanket in the condo, and the sheets are way too short on both beds. The building and amenities are terrific, even though the "lazy river" pool and walkway were closed for renovations. Elevators worked perfectly for us. Vacasa was slow responding, but eventually helped with cleaning the floors and repairing HVAC and a few other issues. Call the local Vacasa office to get a more timely response. Bring blankets, sheets and couches!

Average for the price
There was mold or midlew in the shower and on the curtain. Same thing around the building along the caulking. Very off putting. Dishes were stored away dirty. No parking passes in room as stated. Took 2 days to get them. The bed was a rock and was exceptionally creaky. Everything else was fine and met our expectations so the stay was still enjoyable overall. Just expect more based on my experiences. Very average experience.

The room was nice, the iron did not work, trash can was broken and bed mattresses need updating but overall the condo was suitable for our family vacation. We just live the facilities and access to the beach.

Great Property
We loved our stay. The balcony facing the ocean was large and perfect. The 3 pools and direct access to the ocean was so nice. The condo does need a good deep cleaning. There were cobwebs around the light fixtures and dust on the base boards. But overall was a clean property. The shower head in the master bathroom broke off the first time we went to use it but it was repaired while we were there. The tubs did fill with water easy and drain slow. Despite some small issues we loved this property. Great place to stay!

Satisfied customer!
I enjoyed this condo. We had plenty of room for two adults and three children. The only draw back was the beds were hard and not very comfortable. Other than that everything else was great! We will be back to gulf shores again and will use Kiser reality as our go to company. See you next year!
