Spent a week here with my family in April. We've stayed at Marriott timeshare facilities in the past and are owners at a different facility however, I have to say, we were a bit disappointed in this facility. The building itself is nothing to speak of when you pull up, parking is a bit difficult and it's a bit hard... More

Excellent choice for a family vacation. Big rooms an balcony (never seen as big as this one), views are to die for. This is indeed one the best Marriott I have been, it looks like a Hyatt vacation club. Kitchen has everything you need to make an unforgettable dinner. I love this place. The only thing that I found negative... More

My husband and I along with another couple spent a week at Marriott Crystal Shores in April 2012. We loved it. The staff was happy and seemed to truly enjoy serving the customers. The property is smaller than other Marriott Vacation Club properties we have visited. It was more relaxed and did not have the crowding, noise and regimentation that... More

Crystal Shores is a great place for a short vacation in a beach-side condo. I visited recently with my sisters. The condos are modern, spacious, and well appointed. If you need a colandar, corkscrew or carrot peeler in the kitchen, no problem. The staff is well-informed and hospitable. We had a lovely five day vacation. We made coffee and breakfast... More

Our family of four visited for a week in April 2012. Great time, very relaxing. Have the kids do the 1pm ice cream sundays every day! Pools were great. Great workout room on the 14th floor, and it is a good area to watch the sunset from. Gas grilles worked well. A little too breezey all the time in the... More

Don't arrive early! I arrived at 4pm for a 4pm check in, unfortunately I was told that my room was not ready. We waited for 2 hrs to finally get into a room. We did get a $50 credit...... The room was clean and well maintained and clean. It was large and roomy. The staff was not very friendly, except... More

I am very hot and cold on this Marriott Vacation Club property. I own 2 Vacation Club weeks and have stayed at many vacation club properties over the last 10 years. This vacation club is a converted hotel by marriott with a promise of future development. The gulf fron units are very nice, although the master bedroom is a bit... More

This place is wonderful. Been here several times and it's always a first class experience. The beach is perfect. Warm water, weather is always good. Don't need to worry about coming here and getting rained out. The rooms are like a first class hotel. Food options excellent. And if you like fishing, it doesn't get any better. More

I am a Marriot destinations owner and have been to many marriot vacation clubs. Sadly enough this one is the one I thought would be top on my stays. To make a long story short. Their was absolutely no pool side service at all during my stay. You would of needed to rent a cabana to get any drinks or... More
