The views were awesome. 2 different views from the 2 balconies. My family of 6 fit perfectly. The pools were clean and warm. Short walk to the beach was convenient. Nice sized kitchen with full sized fridge & pantry was key. It was also great to have a laundry room. Would recommend to anyone!

All about the view

The beds were super comfy and the view from the balcony was spectacular. Easy beach access was also a bonus. The only thing that could be addressed is the tub didn’t drain properly in the master bathroom and the shower head in the other bathroom didn’t spray properly. We would definitely stay here again.

We had an easy time with our rental. The property has everything we need. We truly enjoyed our stay and is very comfortable and clean. The only thing I would suggest is updating the sofa I didn’t need to bother anyone and everything worked as it should. Thanks for a great vacation

Absolutely beautiful!!!

The beds could be upgraded, but comfortable enough to still enjoy the rest of the amenities. Views are amazing. Pools and hot tubs are amazing! Walk over makes taking items to the beach a breeze. We go to the beach every year and we always stay beach side, but you can’t beat this unit for convenience and views. It is breathtaking on lagoon and beach side!!!

Great Memorial Day Stay

Perfect location. If you’re worried about not being directly on the beach..DONT! The walkway across is air conditioned, the pool and facilities are clean and right on the beach. You can rent chairs for the day right on the beach too! Condo was clean, bedding was crisp. View was TO DIE FOR! Parking was easy. The only thing I’d change is the shower head in primary bedroom was weak, but the water was hot, towels clean. Would have been nice to have toiletries like shampoo but that’s ok, we knew to bring them based on the check in info. Overall wonderful experience and we will be back.

Great condo but beach is disappointing

We’ve been to Crystal Towers 6 times, and this condo (1509) is the best one we’ve been in! Having balconies on both sides is awesome, and the lace is laid out great. It’s furnished nice, and we were comfortable. The down side - the beach in front of Crystal Tower is in need of a little TLC. Evidently a storm took 100 feet of beach away, and now the useable beach is maybe 30 feet wide. We love coming to the Crystal Tower but the beach definitely needs some TLC and sand.

Needs deep cleaning

We had 5 people staying with us however we were not able to pull out the sofa couch once we pulled it out it was covered in who knows what all, we closed it back up and put a sheet on couch. Please do a deep cleaning on the place. Other than that it was awesome location and view and had most of the supplies needed
