My family and I have been staying at various units in Crystal Shores and Crystal Shores for more than a decade. This unit is easily one of the best. Start with the second floor location, with super-easy load-in from the second floor car park. If you have even the slightest bit of vertigo from 5-9th floor units, you'll feel as though you've come home when you walk out onto the patio and see the (short) drop to the sand dunes and beach. The unit itself was tastefully decorated in what looks like a recent update, and the selection of tableware, cookpots, and dishes was particularly good. We have no complaints! And we very much hope to return.

A well appointed condo and excellent communication with owner. Loved the high ceilings (classy), very roomy condo. Large balcony with plenty of furniture. Beds super comfortable as well as sofa and chairs. Everything we needed in the kitchen and really appreciate the washer and dryer. This second floor condo has an excellent view of the beach, ocean and sunset. Literally steps from the beach. Enjoyed walks, sunning and seeing dolphins and many birds. Nice hot tub too! 4 if us stayed a week in February. Weather was perfect. We will be back!
