Diamond Beach Resort: Seawall Stunner - Galveston, TX

Overall very nice place though their were several small that Vacasa handled promptly

The weekend was great.

The view is the best

Loved the pool and the external amenities. This unit was terrible. It was dirty, lights not working, no fan in living and no internet was a big problem. I had read the reviews that the internet did not work but, assumed it would be working. I called vacasa and got the run around and nothing was fixed. Very unfortunate since this rental was expensive. This unit needs some serious attention before they rent out again.

Location of diamond beach, pools, playrooms for kids

Great view, furnished nicely. Enjoyed the lazy river, etc. beds were comfy. Great kitchen too.

The condo had great living and dining space, with ample seating in both. The kitchen had good appliances, including regular and Keurig coffee makers. The only reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is the bedding in the master bedroom. Mattress, pillows, and sheets all need an upgrade.

Let’s start with the home. Very nice condo, with an amazing view. All the amenities we needed for our four night stay. Plenty of room for the 5 of us. The master bed is terrible. I opted to sleep on the couch instead. My wife and I both thought it felt like a box spring with no mattress. The other beds are much better. This was the only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5. But when you can’t sleep it makes for a long trip. The code for the WiFi was not correct, but we figured it out. The fan in the living room does not work, so we kept it fairly cold instead. The washer and dryer were great to have especially with going to the beach daily. Now the building. The instructions to get in were perfect. Easily followed. The front desk person was very short and to the point. When I said I had never been here before she rattled off information so quickly I didn’t get anything from it. I left slightly confused. Reading the information she gave me was much easier than talking to her. Everything in the building is convenient but with a walk. The game room was perfect to mess around in before our private movie. We brought our own movie and the staff got everything ready for us. The pools were awesome. Lazy river too. Something for everyone. The slide was not running and one of the hot tubs was closed, but we went when it wasn’t busy and almost had the entire pool to ourselves at times. It is a bit of a walk to the beach, and there is access through the complex. But if you had difficulty getting around, or a stroller I could see it being hard due to the sand path you follow to get there. The building is conveniently located. Not within walking distance for most things, but within a short drive you can get anything. It is not on the touristy end of the island, but you can get to anything within 10-15 minutes. I would definitely stay here again if it had a different bed. But I would stay in the building again for sure.

I would give this place 5 stars if they would have had basic spices available to the renters. So pool towels and beach towels would be great also.

We'll be back again this summer

We loved the condo and everything else.
