The condo was just what we needed for our stay. Well appointed kitchen. Master shower is ah-mazing. The view from the balcony was so nice! Communication with the host was spot on. Met the security guard first night and he was so nice and over the top helpful!

A week in Paradise
We loved Crystal Shores West and we were very pleased with Prickett Properties. The beachfront view and balcony was amazing and so was the outdoor furniture. However the inside living room furniture was not very comfortable and using the kitchen table was quite a task as it was very crowded due to the large barstools against the counter. We were very pleased with all the kitchen utensils, dishes and glass wear. We did not want for a thing! Thank you also for switching our start and end date due to a family funeral. You have no idea how much we appreciated you being so accommodating.
Unit was perfect. Clean, spacious, great view of the beach. Also very quiet.

Clean room. Nice furnishings. Did not go to the pool, stayed at the ocean, october is the perfect time of the year for the ocean. We stay at this condominium several times a year for over 10 years, condos are always nice and pool is always great.

We loved Orange Beach so much. Great for families. Sand and water perfect. We did see a lot of jellyfish and got stung, but we will definitely be going again! The condo was roomy and really nice with a beautiful 14th floor view. Loved everything and hope to visit again soon!
