Wonderful Weekend Getaway
Enjoyed our recent stay. The condo was very clean and property amenities were great. The unit was exactly as described with beautiful views great TVs and comfortable beds. Only complaint is wish we could’ve stayed a little bit longer as check out at 10 AM is tough on New Year’s Day. We’ll definitely be back soon.

Diamond Beach Galveston
The view from kitchen and living room was beautiful. Cute beach decor. We did not use the kitchen, but had plenty of cooking, baking pans and utensils. The bed was very comfy. Televisions were very large with numerous channels. Both bathrooms were large, one with a large soaking tub, the other with a large shower. Great place to stay.

Best view in Galveston!
Diamond Beach is nothing short of a resort! Our condo, #514, was beautiful and very clean. The view from the balcony was superb! The only problem we had was the hot water... it never really got hot. If we let it run long enough, it would get a a little warmer than "not cold." Other than that, everything was perfect. Communication was excellent from the host. The front desk said they didn't have record of us when we checked in. But they were very accommodating when we showed our email confirmation. I would certainly stay here again... assuming they get the hot water issue fixed.

Spring break '24
The property was very nice and clean. The amenities offered were beyond other locations and really helped to entertain the kids during down times. The condo was clean and very well out together with everything we needed for the weeks visit. Having a full kitchen with a washer and dryer was a huge bonus. The big tv and comfy, adjustable bed made lounging feel enjoyable. We plan to book this condo again the next time we are back if it is available.

Stay somewhere else
WiFi was down the entire time we were there and communication with the property management company was awful. Almost none of the “amenities” at the property were closed down or non-functional and the pool was filthy. We also didn’t have hot water for more than half our stay. When property management did finally reach out they promised they’d get back to us and provide some sort of compensation for the stay. We’ve recached out multiple times and been patient and calm, they still haven’t reached out. Do yourself a favor, book somewhere else.
