Not as advertised

Upon arrival to diamond beach only 1 out of 2 elevators at the place were working. During check in which took some time of showing not only the confirmation number but also having to prove which dates then filling out additional paperwork. They gave us a piece of paper saying loose roof tiles so avoid/ limit the use of your balcony! The pool was closed even though there was nothing wrong with it and got cleaned every morning. The slide as advertised in the lazy river is not there. The swim up bar is not there either. The Sand volleyball Was closed, the hot tub at the lazy river was broke. Construction tape with fencing and posts along the lazy river. The Cabanas and covered cooking area were not available. The arcade room only had a few games working. The wine and dine was closed along with the lounge/bar. While hurricane beryl happened 3 weeks ago there was no communication about all of the issues with the amenities at this place that were being paid for. The condo itself was nice but to pay top dollar to enjoy the amenities that weren’t available to enjoy and no discount or offer to reschedule is ridiculous and false advertising. Several unhappy guests.

Great family amenities!

Living on the Island we knew this property had some great amenities. It was the perfect staycation! The lazy river, huge pool and location on the beach were wonderful for a family stay. The kitchen was well equipped, just missing a pizza cutter, ice cream scoop and perhaps some more basic spices would be nice. Coffee filters and aluminum foil would also be good to offer guests. The bathroom door did not have a lock so that was another thing that could be improved. Overall a great location and stay for the whole family.

Great spot for family

The pool and lazy river are both nice, very well maintained and the kids enjoyed both. The unit we stayed in was nicely updated and as described. The unit was on the second floor so we had a larger balcony than other floors. The gym has good equipment and well maintained. Bring bug spray! Even though the resort sprays for mosquitos, they are fierce. My husband was actually swarmed and received about 50 plus bites...he did not spray so lesson learned. Location was away from the activity, but just about right. The only issue with the unit itself is the master bed/mattress, it needs to be replaced. I would also suggest that an all purpose cleaner be available in unit to wipe down the kitchen counters. My graddaughters had a blast though!

Spring break 2024

We had a great time in Galveston. This property was perfect for my family! The location was super convenient, the amenities were great! Although it was a little cool and windy for swimming outside, the indoor pool was great! My only complaints would be that it took a really long time to get warm water and there was water leaking from the fridge. We had a great time and would absolutely stay here again!

Never again

We have been to this complex 5 or 6 times in recent years. This experience was truly disappointing. The floor tiles were broken and the management team rented the condo anyway. These broken tiles were in the middle of the primary walkway, mind you. Absolutely unacceptable. There were shards of broken tiles on the floor where my children were walking. I will never work with this management group again.

Thanksgiving vacation with whole family

We have been staying at Diamond Beach for years at Thanksgiving and have been very pleased with the accommodations. Our family rents 4 condos from Wed to Sun. This was the first time I was renting from a different owner. While the condo was clean, the tables and coffee table in the living room were unstable. The outdoor furniture was coming apart with frayed fabric and padding exposed. The lamp in the largest bedroom (orange lamp) is being held together with scotch tape. The toilet in this bedroom is incredibly difficult to flush. Hot water takes 15 minutes in the bathroom showers to get warm. The beds squeak in 2 of the bedrooms. It needs a makeover for such a high end property.

Very Enjoyable

Just as pictured - only negative thing was the bathtub didn't drain very well and it was difficult to change from shower to faucet. Everything else was great. Diamond Beach is our favorite place to stay in Galveston with their amazing pools, hot tubs and most of all, the lazy river.

Restful but very average and aging property

We have checked out early. The dishwasher isn’t working. The ice machine on the fridge isn’t working well. The cooktop is cracked and damaged. There is such limited kitchenware, that we struggled with serving meals. 1 serving bowl, one pyrex baking pan. Thats it. The condo needs a good overhaul or deep cleaning and re-stocking. The patio door doesn't lock! The furniture outside is also in need of repair or replacement. Broken chairs, and torn cushions is not what i expected in one of the most expensive rentals in Diamond Beach! We paid the highest price we’ve EVER paid for a rental at DB! Very disappointed. The beds were comfortable tho. The response to a AC malfunction was fast and helpful.

Lovely

The condo was lovely. There are beach toys on the back porch I wish we would have known about before. Also we didn’t realize the bottom bunk bed had a trundle as well, so we were able to put a child there instead of the living room couch, which was great because it is too bright for someone to sleep there past 6:00am (no blinds).

Quick Beach Trip

The condo was very nice. Patio was huge and had plenty of seating. It is one floor up from the pool. Pictures make it look level with the pool. The complex was nice. There were a few broken umbrellas. The cabana was nice and had a built in cooler. I wish the fence around the pool didn't block the view of the ocean. We loved the lazy river and having a full bar available on the weekend. Pool is huge and beautiful.

Misleading Condo

We were not notified until 45 minutes prior to check in that the pools at our condo were not in working order. We had reservations for over a month at a 3 bedroom condo on the beach with a view of the ocean and the pool. We had to move to a 2 bedroom condo with no view. My daughter had to sleep on the sofa! No one bothered to tell us any of this until 45 minutes before we were supposed to checkin. The pipes froze during the snow which occurred over 3 weeks ago!!

Not a bad escape from reality!

It was really nice to get away. The place is mostly fantastic, so here’s the reasons for not giving a 5-star rating: 1) Cleanliness: 3 stars. Finding food crumbs on the floor and on the furniture was annoying. So was having to clean “trash-splash goo” off the walls from previous tenants in both the kitchen and master bedroom. I get that kids and families stay here, but they may need to hire a new cleaning crew. Location: 4 stars. The “close to the beach” is deceiving. You are absolutely right on the water. But finding sand is a bit of a walk (1.5 miles) if you’re carrying beach gear. Bring a wagon or pay to park down the road. If you’re looking from a nice getaway from Covid, this will do. But keep in mind the bars onsite are closed, they no longer offer free float tubes for the lazy river, and staff (while super friendly and helpful) are limited in numbers. The hot tub heating element was broken on one of the two hot tubs the entire week...made it hard to social distance and warm up at the same time. Overall, the views were just like in the pictures. Just bring misquote repellant!!!!!

Excellent for Weekend Family Getaway

We stayed here with our two kids for the weekend and it was wonderful. The pool is perfect for small children and so much fun. Loved that you could walk right outside to the beach instead of having to cross the busy street to get to the seawall. The playroom was also really nice to have for the middle of the day when you want to keep the little ones out of the blazing sun. The kids were so happy playing on the beach and in the pool. We truly enjoyed our stay and cannot wait to go back.

Great location with wonderful amenities. The property is not as well kept as it was when we were there 3 years ago. Unit property manager did not respond to a non-critical but important inquiry from us regarding cable TV access. Left two messages, finally got a hold of someone who promised to call back and never did.

As a BOI, my standards are high for when I come back home to the island. However, instead of staying with fam and friends we decided to try something new and this didn’t disappoint!
