Here is what some recent Crystal Shores guests had to say,"Our vacation was wonderful! The condo is just beautiful, BRAVO to the interior designer!!! I have to admit I was a little leery of making a reservation through VRBO, Usually I always go by word of mouth. We could not have asked for a better place to share such a wonderful family experience. Thanks! Cathy"
July 22, 2009 guest comment,"Thank you so much!!! We had a wonderful time, your condo is beautiful!!! Tastefully decorated, love the paint colors, and the balcony is to die for!!! Your cleaning crew also does an excellent job, the place was spotless!!! We stayed a couple buildings down last year and it was dirty, had to clean it before we could enjoy our stay. Your condo had all the details thought out, even a baby spoon in the silverware drawer. Thanks for letting us stay, we will be back next year." Kelly P.
"We had a wonderful time staying at your condo at Crystal Shores. Your condo is beautiful and was cleaned very well for our arrival. Barb and I love falling asleep and waking to the sound of waves against the shore. I did not realize the wrap around balcony would be so important. It provides a view that is so much more than we would have had from one of the inner condos. I don't think we could have chosen a better place for our vacation." -Charles and Barb, April 2010
Sept. 3, 2010 guest comment, "...just can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was in #801!! Your accommodations went far beyond what we expected even with the descriptions given. The excitement on our faces when we saw the views whether from the inside looking out in all directions, coming to the front door and looking out to the inlet area, or of course, the balcony view in all directions was absolutely breathtaking!! The weather was great with lots of sunshine until the last few days..but even with the rain there was certainly enough to do in Gulf Shores to make for a very relaxing and enjoyable time. We will be staying with you again soon." Jimmy and Karen H.

Why the Owner Chose Crystal Shores
We chose to buy in Gulf Shores because the beaches are perfect white sand and the location is great. There is so much to do in the area and it doesn't get overcrowded.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
We love to sit on the deck and soak up the sun and views. I always take my clubs and fly rod because there is great golf and fishing close by. The beach is perfect, it's big and the sand it like white powder. It's fun to eat out in Gulf Shores, we love Bahama Bob's, Sea-n-Suds and the Hangout all on the ocean. We go biking, skim boarding, crabbing, shopping, relaxing on the beach, early morning beach walks and the water park.
Owner's Map of Crystal Shores
My family and I love the beach and everything about it. We live in Franklin, TN just 7 hours north of Gulf Shores. As much as we enjoy Franklin we always enjoy driving to the Gulf. I am the owner of Epic Properties, LLC. (3 Gulf Shores condos) and I am also involved in a scaffold manufacturing plant called Granite Industries. I hope you enjoy a stay with us sometime and feel free call or email me if you need anything or have any questions. Jason Wyse

Never knowing exactly what you'll get in a vacation rental, we were thrilled with the condo, with the perpetual balcony view, the space age elevators (what is it, 10 seconds to the ground?)! and the shortest walk to the most wonderful beach and ocean site we have ever been! Thank you Jason for answering all my bothersome emails. We enjoyed your dining recommendations and my husband found the perfect fishing trip with your help. I have told friends, family, and coworkers where they should plan to stay on their future vacations.
Owner response:Thanks Teresa, I hope ya'll come back soon and thank you so much for spreading the good word. Let me know if you need anything. Jason

This condo was very comfortable, centrally located and reasonably priced. The highlight of my trip was watching the dolphins from the balcony (it was like Sea World).
Owner response:Thanks so much for staying and taking care of the condo. We have also had a chance to see the dolphins (my daughter favorite animal) play in the waves. Come back anytime! -Jason

We just returned from Gulf Shores and our week at this beautiful condo. This was our third time to stay here and it just gets better with each stay! The condo is clean, well apportioned, and is in a perfect location. The view from the balcony can't be beat, and if you ever get a chance to sleep out there, take it! This condo is our favorite, and we've been coming to Gulf Shores for about 29 years now, so we've stayed in many condos and beach homes--none can compare!
Owner response:Thank you so much for staying with us and I am grateful you have enjoyed our home away from home. I have not slept on the balcony yet but we will give it a try. Have a wonderful summer and come visit again soon. God Bless

We rented this condo for two weeks in March. We had great weather and a great time. The condo was clean and very comfortable. The location is convenient to many restaurants and shops. The beach is in great shape!! We enjoyed doing business with Jason and plan to rent from him again in the future. It's an end unit so foot traffic outside the door is non-existent. We used the exercise room often and really liked watching the beach and dolphins swimming by as we worked out. Lots of beach toys are provided to families with children would benefit. You can't go wrong renting this one!!!
Owner response:Thank you all for taking great care of my condo and being wonderful guests. I am so glad you enjoyed your time. I look forward to hearing from you next time you head to Gulf Shores. Have a good one. Jason

First, I am sorry that it's taken me so long to come back here and write a review. Today, I found myself on vrbo.com looking for a summer vac rental, and realized I had never submitted a review for this one. This condo was absolutely perfect for us. The beach/ocean views from the awesome wrap around balcony are amazing. Every meal and snack that we ate at the condo was eaten on that balcony. We watched dolphins out in the ocean every single day from our balcony. Even our kids (ages 2 and 4) could see them from there. The decor is nice, the unit is clean, and the pool and hot tub are great. Jason was really great to work with, and even though we made the decision to go to Gulf Shores at the very last minute (due to severe weather being forecasted in our original destination), he worked very quickly to get everything ready for us. Would definitely stay again and would recommend to anyone. P.S. The only reason we aren't staying with you again this year is that we have a bigger group this time (13 people), so just need something with a little more space.
Owner response:Thank you very much for the great review. Thank you for taking care of our home away from home. I put new tile in the bedrooms this winter (looks better and stays cleaner than the carpet). Come back soon and stay with us!! Have a blessed day. Jason

We stayed in this rental last year and loved it. It was a very clean condo, which is very important to me. Also, dealing with Jason was so easy and convenient. We have usually dealt with a realtor and someone told us about VRBO. This was a much easier and more economical choice. We will be back!!p
Owner response:Thanks Paula, You took such great care of my condo and thanks for your kind words. Please come back and stay again soon. I just put new tile in the bedrooms and it looks so much better than the carpet. Have a blessed day. Jason

We enjoyed our stay so much. We have decided we have to come back again. We loved the condo and the ammenities were great even though we didn't get to enjoy many of them. Just loved going out on the balcony and watching the sunrise and sunsets.
Owner response:Thanks to you for taking such good care of our home away from home. Have a great day and come back soon. Jason

We loved staying here! The views of the gulf and the bay are beautiful! The condo is very nice and clean and well-decorated. We walked less than a mile to the Jimmy Buffett concert! The description delivered - it was a wonderful get-a-way. We would definitely like to rent this property again! Thanks for making everything easy and fun for us!
Owner response:Ya'll are too kind. Come back and visit next year or sooner! Jason

Everything was beautiful! What a view we had from the balcony! We ate breakfast on the balcony every morning and saw dolphins every afternoon! It was my favorite spot! The condo was clean and very nicely decorated too. We were very comfortable and would definately like to stay there again! It's definately a home away from home!

We've stayed at this condo for the last two years, and when it is available, it will be our choice every year! The location is great--within walking distance of restaurants and shopping, and yet, right on the beach. The view from the balcony is amazing and the condo itself is clean and very tastefully furnished. I have recommended this condo to friends and they have enjoyed it as much as we have. You can't find a better place in Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, or Ft. Morgan.
Owner response:Thanks and we appreciate your kind words. Come and stay with us again and get 10% off your rent. Have a great day! Jason
