Due to two Hurricanes and a recent winter storm, our area has been significantly impacted by beach erosion. There is a plan in place to replenish the sand, but that project will not be underway until at least Fall 2023. We are monitoring the situation regularly. If beach access at this property is affected we will post that and let any current reservations know immediately.

***The pool and spa will be closed for repairs from 11/21/22 to mid to late January 2023 ***

Awesome!
5/5 stars
This was my third rental at Crystal Shores and it was the best one. The entire complex is in the midst of upgrades around the building. Unlike the first visit where only one elevator worked both were in operation. The weather was very cold while there so the fact that the pool and hot tub were being resurfaced wasn't an issue. The condo itself was very comfortable, clean and well furnished. As a corner unit the view of the gulf is stunning particularly sunrise and sunset. I will be returning in the summer for sure.

5/5 stars
Beautiful place to watch the Sun rise and set. Watch the dolphins and pelicans search for fish. Clean and relaxing this condo is a great place to get away from the rest of the world. Great place for a couple or family. Great access to the beach and not to far from many other attractions. We will definitely be staying here again.

We had a wonderful time at Gulf Shores. Our condo at 1308 was very nice. The kitchen had everything we needed. I loved having three bathrooms for our group. The only complaint would be with the elevator being slow and hot. Some ventilation in the elevators would be helpful.

Review of stay at CSW 1308
5/5 stars
Our stay at CSW 1308 was terrific. We enjoyed a very relaxing month in Gulf Shores. This was the first time that we stayed in GS for a month as "snowbirders". It will not be our last. We really enjoyed it. CSW 1308 was very nice. It was clean and well stocked upon arrival. We had one mechanical issue during our stay (the microwave over the oven quit working). We called iTrip and within an hour the maintenance man arrived. After confirming the microwave was broken he brought over a countertop microwave within an hour. (He asked if we wanted to replace the over-the-oven microwave or just bring a countertop. We wanted to do the countertop.)

Family beach trip
5/5 stars
We made a last minute decision to book this condo and are so glad we did. We booked through iTrip Vacations, and Schasta was so helpful and accommodating, even allowing us to check in early since the unit had been vacant the night before. Views were amazing, and this part of the beach wasn't too crowded. The wrap-around deck was so nice with plenty of seating and the breeze on the 13th floor made it very comfortable to sit outside even in late June. The condo was very clean and had everything we needed, including a spare sheet of sheets and blanket for the trundle bed which my 8 year old nephew loved. Three full, spacious bathrooms made it easy for our group to get ready and out each day. I had read reviews about one of the elevators being down and was concerned about that before we arrived, but both were fully operational and wait times were minimal. Check-in and out was easy, we had parking for two cars and had no trouble finding a space. It was a great experience all the way around! An added bonus: iTrip Vacations gave us one free admission to different activities in the area, including golfing, the water park and amusement park. I definitely recommend this condo and would stay here again when we're in the area.

We had a fantastic vacation in Gulf Shores. Management responded promptly and immediately remedied any issues we had. The only drawback would be the elevator, with only one working elevator, the wait time was a little long. We did use the stairs quite a bit. The condo was clean and roomy and well stocked with anything we needed. Definitely would stay there again!!

HOLIDAY STAY
5/5 stars
This condo was nothing short of amazing. Upon arrival you immediately notice the cleanliness and the SPACE !!! We were so surprised to be able to fit all the bags and gifts brought for the holidays. House was equipped with board games, cooking pots and utensils, washer & dryer and even a gaming console in the kids room. Comfortable bedding and living room furniture even for the elderly. The beachfront view was BEAUTIFUL and we even got to participate in FREE daily activities for being guests. To the Hosts, thank you so much, this property was everything we needed and more. The pictures don’t give it enough justice !!

We love CSW 1307!! It was a great condo for 4 adults and three children. The condo was nicely decorated, beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was stocked very well with anything we needed. Pantry and separate laundry room was great too! Only thing I was a alittle disappointed in was the fact that the outdoor was advertised as heated, but it wasn't. It wasn't a huge deal breaker, but with that addition, this would be the prefect condo for family vacation. It made our Christmas one of the best we've had!
- Emily

Thank you so much for your recent stay with us! We are thrilled that you enjoyed it. We are terribly sorry about the misunderstanding regarding the heated pool. It is actually a swim-through pool where the indoor part is heated (and the warm water flows inside & outside) but in the winter the swim through is closed to keep the warm water inside (and the cold water outside). We are so glad it wasn't a deal breaker. We appreciate your valuable feedback and look forward to seeing you again soon.

Oh Cindy!!
5/5 stars
Most of our negatives are beyond the control of the management company....We had tropical storm Cindy and she took 2 full days away from us :( On the first and second day only one elevator was operable, and being on the 13th floor, my calves were sore the whole week from taking the stairs 16 flights. We also had an emergency evacuation at 6AM where we again had to take 16 flights of stairs. The condo itself was very nice, this is our third time in the same room. Love love love! the new washer and dryer!!! 2 of the glasses in the kitchen were cracked and had to be thrown out. We felt lucky and blessed to be on the 13th floor and not lose power during that storm. AC works well, and the beds and pillows are comfy. Overall, the good outweighs the bad, but I'm getting too old to walk those steps!

Joyce - Thank you so much for your recent stay! We are so sorry for the weather you experienced during your trip.

Late winter in Gulf Shores
5/5 stars
I wasn't really sure what to expect, having never been to gulf shores before. I was very pleasantly surprised. My wife and I (and for part of the time my grown children and my brother) had a great time at Crystal Shores West 1308. The apartment is nicely furnished, equipped, and has plenty of room. We had one issue with the washing machine, but management went above and beyond to take care of it. The view of the gulf from the 13th floor balcony never got old. Not sure what I'll do next year, but I would definitely consider coming back here again.

Nice surprise
4/5 stars
The condo was surprisingly well decorated. It exceeded my expectations for a condo at Crystal Shores. However, the mattress in the master bedroom was quite possibly the worst I have ever slept on. You could not lay on it without rolling down into the middle of the mattress it needs to be replaced

Had a wonderful time at this beautiful condo. The balcony is awesome the view amazing & the furniture on the balcony was so nice not the old plastic chairs very comfortable for large people. The recliners we really enjoyed. location is great close to many things, restaurants, shops etc. the weather did not cooperate a cold front came through & the wind howled but we still enjoyed out stay. the condo has plenty of room, the only thing & this is not a complaint the lower bunks mattress is lumpy & the garbage disposal did not work but it did not effect us that much just an observation. I would recommend this condo for sure & would like to return in nicer weather. thanks for sharing your lovely home.

Thank you for your recent stay! Nice to hear your time at the beach was wonderful. I couldn't agree more the balcony view is amazing. The furnishings in the unit are pleasing for all, glad to hear you enjoyed them as well. The location of the unit is within walking distance to some of the local island favorites. Happy to report the garbage disposal is now in working order. While it is not always easy to replace a mattress I will have it evaluated. Our weather has been wacky this year! Love to hear our guest speak of returning.

The condo was fantastic, nice deck. You can see everything from the 13th floor, including dolphins every morning. The beach was pretty crowded, but I think that's to be expected with a complex this size. The pool was nice, but honestly I was here for the beach! There is not a whole lot within walking distance, A nice convenience store across the street for basics and Bahama Bob's restaurant a few blocks away (crowded). We had a wonderful stay.
