Amazing Week on the Water

We had a wonderful week watching the waves roll in and enjoying the lazy river and all the myriad amenities of the resort. All four of us were in agreement, this is a place we would visit again.

Very nice

Nice, clean and comfortable beds , the resort is impeccable but there’s no Keurig in the unit and the ac won’t stay below 70 at night, we love sleeping with the ac set on 68 also the master bedroom ceiling fan is set backwards blowing air upwards.

This home gave us a wonderful time staying in Galveston with an excellent view of the ocean. The house was very nice and bright. The furniture, appliances and decorations were top classes. We definitely like to stay here again next time visiting Galveston. Hopefully soon.

Nice Condo

Nice condo, clean upon arrival. Toiletries were a bit on the cheap side with one-ply toilet paper and no Kleenex. 10am check out is a bit excessive and not flexible when requesting later checkout.

Great location!

This place was beautiful! Great location as promised! The lazy river and pool were both cold but that’s not the condo owners fault. The only thing we wish we knew earlier was that there was another elevator that goes right to the parking garage. The condo itself was stocked with everything we needed for a great stay! Highly recommend!

Horrible do not waste Your money or ruin your vacation.

Appliances do not work , they have no intentions of fixing them. When I asked for someone to bring us clean towels since the washer was broke , I was told to go buy some .

Needs work for the price point

If you are begging to go to Galveston and need to stay at Diamond beach club because your life depends on it, and this is the only one left, then this would be the only time you should rent this unit at this price point. The bed in the master bedroom is actually a double, not a queen as advertised. There are no pans to cook with, so bring your own. Very ragged and sad couches, pillows and rug- feels like they were bought at Salvation Army. It is impossible to get ahold of Vacasa to discuss anything with them. We have stayed at Diamond beach club for years, usually 1-2 times per year and this is the worst unit we’ve ever rented. If it was maybe $250/night, then it would make more sense. But after taxes, fees etc, you’re paying $1k a night for this unit. It’s just not worth it. Look elsewhere.

Great for Families

Shines Like a Diamond #604 is a very cute condo. The resort amenities are great for kids (and adults)! Overall we had a great time and would rent the unit again. Unit could use some improvements, like locks on the bedroom and bathroom doors (you CANNOT un-see grandpa on the toilet). Master room has a great bathroom, but the toilet has no privacy door. The ice maker only made 4 pieces of ice in 4 days. Would be nice if there were plastic cups/plates for kids and a beach bag or wagon. It's a long walk to the beach. Great job on the number of towels and pillows in the unit. The unit needs a broom and mop available for use. No way to clean up after yourself. Resort has a wonderful lazy river, 2 pools, 2 hot tubs, free arcade, indoor and outdoor game area. The swim up bar is nice, but the bar tenders seemed more interested in being on their phones than working. Resort grounds are kept super clean. The lead security guard is GREAT! He doubled as the concierge and practically worked 24/7.

The Diamond Shined!!

Our stay! We were so excited about about stay. Looked forward to this stay for a long time. Had a few cons.. but overall it was a great stay. Before our arrival we received a text, Then we arrived at check in time but room wasn’t available. We waited around in hall way. The resort inside, hallways, entertainment room, fitness center, ext. was clean. Entering our room it was clean. There were some small areas that could have used cleaning. The unit has a locked AC system. It doesn’t come down no lower than 70 degrees. The first night it was very warm, uncomfortable to sleeWe asked for fans but none available. There is a coffee pot but not a Keurig pod coffee pot. There is small amounts of Dove shampoo and conditioner and tiny dove soup bars and one washing liquid pod for washing clothing. (Which we had brought our own supplies.) two dishwashers pods and dish liquid. Plenty of wash cloths and towels. There are no throw blankets in the living area. But pillows. Nice small patio area with patio furniture. The wide open glass windows help you enjoy the beach view at all times in the kitchen or living area. The beautiful pool area is nice. Needs some cleaning up around the pools and cabanas. The lazy river was relaxing and enjoyable. Could use some trimming of the trees around it. The white slide is not available to use. In the evening the mosquitoes are real bad. Enjoy spa time. The staff were very nice and helpful. Our stay above all was a great experience.

Nice views from the condo about five miles from the pleasure pier

Nice views of the beach from the condo. The condo was clean but few issues with appliances. I noted here someone staying preciously mentioned about the dishwasher rubber tubing off from inside the door, this issue still hasn’t been fixed and it’s almost off, there also seems to be damage on the inside bottom door so we didn’t use it. The toaster had steel wire coming up from the center that goes inside and again we didn’t use it. It was a nice condo but there was no hangers in the main bedroom and two in the bedroom with the bunk beds. For the cost per night I think the appliances should be fixed or replaced. Overall the complex is was nice and we enjoyed our stay.
