We have stayed at Crystal Towers several times and it has never failed to please us. Each unit we've had has been spotless and each has a wonderful balcony which allows for some relaxing breakfasts overlooking the gorgeous Gulf. The units we have stayed in have had plenty of room, full kitchen, washer and dryer, and the perfect amount of space.

The property is in a wonderful location. It's just down from all of the souvenir shops and eating stops. It has three different swimming pools in addition to it's access to the beach. One pool is indoors, another is small but right next to the building, and the nicest large pool is next door to the beach access. There's a handy walkway that goes over the street so moving to and from the beach is a breeze. It's a perfectly setup property.

The parking is in the back of the property and there is plenty of it. We never had any trouble with noice although occasionally the bigger pool can get a little crowded and if you have some kids without adult supervision, it can be annoying, especially as you watch them take up the little kid's space.

But I have no real complaints about this property. It's perfect for what we go to the beach for! Young's Suncoast is ideal for booking a unit and their service can't be beat. Check out their website to see fantastic views of each room before you rent. They are the way to go!

We stayed three nights in 1305 Crystal Towers. The condo owner was very easy and nice to work with. I was disappointed that this building is across the street and not directly gulf front. But it really had no effect on our stay. The 05's are right in the middle and have a really nice view - at least the higher floors do. You can still easily hear the ocean. We picked a very nice unit with granite counters and nice appliances and better furniture which makes the stay feel a little more luxurious. Make sure your parking pass is correct for the parking lot. Ours was not and we got a note from security about it; still, the staff handled it very well. I'd stay there again.

This is our 2nd Annual family trip to Gulf Shores during The Shrimp Festival. There is great energy here along with a safe fun environment for your family. The Monarch Butterflies are migrating through on their way to Mexico so that is an added bonus for me. Great pool at Crystal Towers! Oh, and a great value!

I found our condo through VRBO, but the paper work, keys, etc. were actually handled by Youngs Suncoast Realty. This was a fantastic place to stay. The condo we had was stocked with everything you could possibly want or need. This complex is located across the road from the beach but that's not a problem because there's an air conditioned catwalk that makes getting to and from the beach a breeze. Even though my children are older it was still a relief to not worry about traffic, especially coming back in from late night walks on the beach. There were 3 pools total, and one even has a lazy man's river. There is a workout facility (which I had ever intention of making use of but never quite got around to it), a game room (which we also did not get around to making use of), and various other perks that just made our stay that much better. The realty company issues bracelets, keycodes (I suggest, from experience, that you learn that code BEFORE you go to the beach and then can't get back in), and parking permits so the amenities and parking are restricted to the complex guests. They do provide security, and we witnessed those security guards enforcing the rules (which in my personal opinion is a plus). We stayed 6 days and 7 nights and I can't think of a single thing that we we're dissatisfied with. If we get the chance to go back I will definitely be booking us back into Crystal Towers.
