Diamond Beach!
Our stay was enjoyed, comfy and almost as good as our previous stays. Disappointed that the bar closed down but it was still fun. Only suggestion is to find motorcycle trailer parking before you check in. No trailers allowed onsite made the check in and out process a little more planning. Other than that, great as usual!

All outdoor amenities unusable
The property is nice and well maintained but all outdoor amenities were out due to the hurricane. This is understandable but not what we paid for. I booked another room at the same time with Ryson and that company issued me a partial credit due to the inconveniences. Vacasa has never replied to any of my phone calls it’s messaged and refuses to issue any credit

Easy getaway
Enjoyed the condo unit. Was very well appointed, nice TV, bed, large living area and large patio, and a view facing gulf over the lazy river area. Property manager was very focused on rules which I guess is good to monitor guests and keep safe for all but sometimes felt a little excessive (i.e. wearing the daily bands). Property is well maintained and lazy river is fantastic. The game room was very fun, too! We will definitely be back and will stay in this unit, thank you!

Would definitely stay here again
The condo was clean, with all of the necessities. Atmosphere of the building was quiet and beautiful. We went in mid-May to avoid crowds and were fortunate to enjoy the pool and lazy river with very few others around. Easy walk to the sea wall and drive to the main attractions, yet not located in the busyness of the area.

Wonderful stay
We loved the condo and the location. Loved sitting on the balcony with coffee in the am and drinks in the pm. Loved the access to the beach for walks at dusk. The lazy river was amazing. We had a very enjoyable stay and if we are ever back in that area. We would book again.

First time visiting Galveston and could not have asked for a better place to stay. Our 14 year old really liked the lazy river and game room and my wife and I liked the hot tub. Condo itself has lots of space for only being one bedroom and everything we needed for a 5 night stay.

Little To No Customer Service
The Diamond Beach resort was beautiful. However, our experience with the concierge team and the disconnect between them and the management company for the unit made it very hard to resolve some of the issues we had upon first checking in. There was an issue with the hot water and rather than sending someone to help us figure out what the problem was, they directed us first to “run the water for a half hour and it should heat up” and then when that didn’t work shifted the responsibility over to the management company. The management company, Vacasa, was completely unhelpful and not able to get somebody to the unit until halfway through our second and final day of our weekend stay. I recommend the Hamiltons find a different company to represent their interests at Diamond Beach. I would not recommend booking this particular unit or anything else managed by Vacasa.

Fun times regardless of weather
Winter break for my grandkids was a HIT! The weather was cold and windy but this condo and resort had plenty to do without needing to get in the outdoor pool or playing at the beach. Kids loved the large heated indoor pool, the parents and grandparents love the awesome hot tubs. We had a great time playing in the game room and watching moving in the theater. We can’t wait to go back in the summer and try out the spectacular pool, lazy river and slide. Such a spacious room with views of the ocean and the pools. Loved this place!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this condo. The furnishings are beautiful. The property is so nice you feel like you are at a 5 star resort! All of the amenities are awesome. The view of the ocean was spectacular and the balcony was nice and big. The entire condo is really large which is fantastic. Bed is very comfortable. Love the washer/dryer!
