Luxurious Large Condo. Beautiful unobstructed views.

Everything was perfect. All the space, all the amenities, the incredible views. These owners have thought of every convenience and more of what you would need to have a wonderful vacation. The beds even had automatic risers and the showers are like being at a spa. Loved every minute.

Perfect October Week at the Beach

We have rented a beach house in Galveston every October for ten years. This year after staying at Diamond Beach in Dec for the weekend we decided to try it for our week in October also. I’m not sure we will ever go back to renting a house. There are so many extra amenities available. The exercise room, spa, lazy river and pool in addition to the beach (& game & play rooms for kids) are really nice. The ocean views especially on the 7th floor are incredible. Our condo was spacious, the beds comfortable, the kitchen well equipped and it is so close in to restaurants and shopping. It was close to perfect.

Great 4 bedroom unit!

This unit was very nice and clean. I love the fact it has 4 bedrooms, which means there is room for my whole extended family to all stay together. Also nice that it was close to the elevator!

Diamond Beach has Everything for Family Fun

The condo that we stayed in had everything you could possibly need especially the kitchen. Great condo. The owners thought of everything! for a comfortable stay! My only complaint is with Diamond Beach Resort. We stayed there for one week and the fitness room had NO air conditioning! I call a number of times to ask about the air and was told every time someone was working on it. Amazing fitness room but much too hot with no air conditioning! We will return next year even with the negitive experience with the fitness room. Great palce!

Family friendly!

My family really enjoyed all the swimming options. The lazy river is really long, the water temperature was pleasant and they had tubes available. Vacasa brought more beach towels quickly when we didn't have enough. It was nice to have the indoor pool for night swimming. Beach access is close. We used the available grills and found most kitchen items we needed. There were a few plastic cups to take down to the pool area but there were no plastic plates so plan accordingly if you want to eat by the pool. The beds were comfortable and plenty of seating options. Highly recommend Seahorse Grill and Seawall Coffee across the street.

Weekend away

Had a great weekend away filled with fun for every age! Our 5 year olds loved the pools and the game rooms and the parents/grandparents loved relaxing on the balcony or admiring the views from the living room. Truly everything for everyone!

Loved it

This is a great place for family. The unit was spacious for my family of 5 and my parents. The staff is very friendly. The outdoor pool was closed while we were there and the mosquitos from the swamp on the volleyball court made it difficult to enjoy the lazy river but everything else was great. Kids also loved the game room. 10am check out was earlier than our friends in another unit and our unit was not ready at 4pm check in because it was still being cleaned, but only minor inconveniences. Hopefully both elevators are working when we return.

nicer than reasonably expected

This was an exceptionally nice rental – great room furniture exceeds any reasonable expectation for a beach rental. The layout was a tad odd – all four bedrooms are interior, with no windows or views. That worked just fine for us, as we went to bed when we were ready to go to sleep and the great room and wonderful balcony, had all the more space due to this design. Great TVs (though with odd voice directed remotes.) nice kids play area, plenty of dining space inside and out electrically raised heads on most of the beds Overall, we give this a 9 out of 10.

Spacious, Elegant, Gorgeous Views

When you are on a trip, comfortable beds and furniture is a must. This lovely, living space has it. The beds offered remote controls as well as the recliners. The outdoor couches are very comfortable for enjoying the incredible views or relaxing with a book. With views from the top floor, words cannot describe the lighting over the ocean in the evenings or the incredible experience of watching a storm roll in. Our family ages ranged from 12 months to 65 years. We appreciated the walk-in showers for the adults and the large tubs for the babies. What an elegant space with plenty of seating for multiple families. Lastly, we were never disturbed by neighbors staying in adjacent apartments. The location was quiet and a great stress release. The only downside was the large TV in the living room did not work. We did have one day with a large thunderstorm heading our way and would like to have watched a local channel from the living room. Overall, we felt spoiled with this fabulous living space.

Very dirty

The unit was beautifully decorated and had an awesome view. Upon arrival our unit was very dirty. Look like whoever cleaned it was in a rush. Appliances and cabinets have food all over them. Glass table had smears on it. Mirrors had handprints, that look like from a child. Easter grass and Sprinkles all over the floors and back porch had chocolate frosting on the table and sprinkles. Ants were all over the back porches, because it had not been cleaned up. Found Easter grass in a couple of the beds and worst of all, one of the beds had crushed Cheez-Its, long black hairs, and sprinkles in the bed. Look like they had just made the beds but did not change the sheets. Very disgusting and very disappointing. We called management they sent somebody out. The girl took a few pictures wipe down the kitchen and the dining room table, then left. We had to wash our own sheets that first night. It was A beautiful Propert , but would not stay there again.

Beautiful property

The unit we rented was really lovely, but the amenities for which we had to pay (resort fee) seemed exorbitant since none of them were available save the gym. The fireplace did not work and the telephone number given to help problem solve was no help. Texted back and forth for 1 1/2 days, and left without getting it to work. The thermostats were a bit different and no instructions were given for them, the television, or the fireplace. Nonetheless, we enjoyed our time together.

Peaceful Stay

We visited with my husband, kids 6 and 8, and my parents. The unit is massive and tasteful furnished. So many things to do on site including an indoor pool (outdoor was too cold), arcade with free games, and a movie theater you could reserve. I would have been happy just staying in the condo and sipping wine on the patio though. It had a gorgeous view and is on the top floor.
