GORGEOUS 6TH FLOOR CONDO AT A GREAT PRICE

It was absolutely gorgeous! We had a great time.

Disappointed that the water slide isn't available to children under 48" as it always has been in the past!

We rented through Sterling Realtors. They were very specific that we could not check in until 4. So we played on the beach until check in time. The until was very clean. By this time we were hungry and ready for dinner. I realized there was no hand soap, no dish soap, no extra trash bag, one roll of extra toilet paper, and exactly 6 bath towels for the 6 of us staying. We had to leave and buy hand soap and other supplies. I asked Steting about the soap and they said it is up to the owner of the unit to provide what they want. For the price we paid I would not rent this unit again. We have stayed in another unit before which was just as nice and provided soap. We love the complex we have a few little ones and all the amenities are great!

We stayed in this condo for a week and half during the fall (off-season). The complex is very nice and the pools are large and well kept. Our boys (7, 5, 4) loved the lazy river even though it was a little chilly. The indoor pool was really nice since it was heated. The outdoor hot tub is large and clean. We had guests over to grill and the 3 grills were very handy and in good condition.

The condo itself was very nicely decorated and in good condition. A few cabinet doors were broken but maintenance fixed it quickly. The washer and dryer were very helpful for a longer stay. The condo itself was roomy (1200+sq ft) and with 3 boys running around for over a week we never felt crampped. The balcony is nice and has a good view of the pools and the ocean. The balcony has plexi-glass so felt a little safer than just bars at a higher floor. The kitchen is stocked with all the cooking necessities, so we were able to eat in many times.

The manager of the condo was very professional and worked with us for check-in. The condo staff is very helpful and friendly. The wine room was very well decorated. We had a wine/cheese party the first night and spilled out onto the veranda. It was a great place to have guests. The movie room was very nice too and our kids enjoyed the 'movie night.' We even spent a little time in the Jungle room or kids room, there are puzzles, books, bean bags, and other things, mainly for younger kids/toddlers.

We would definitely stay here again. It is the best place to stay in Galveston due to the beach access without having to cross busy Seawall Blvd. The beach is well maintained and is accessible via an outside gate from the swimming pool area.

We stayed in this unit for a week in June 2012. This was our first time to stay at Diamond Beach and we were pleasantly surprised. These Condos sit at the very end of the Seawall on the West end. As you drive up to the Condo from the street it's a little deceiving. It's not much to look at. It wasn't till we entered the building and went to the front desk (which is on the 2nd Floor) that we realized how beautiful it was. We were greeted by a very pleasant woman at the desk. These people were WONDERFUL during our entire visit. It is my understanding that each unit is individually owned and rented by Realtors but the Condo personal is what made our stay nice. We didn't swim in the indoor pool which looked to have been right out of a magazine. Our unit was on the 6th floor and the view was outstanding. All the units overlook the pool and face the gulf so there are no bad views. There is no constant traffic noise like the other Seawall hotels because the building sits right on the Seawall. The street and traffic is to your back. You overlook a small parking lot but while were there the only traffic was the occasional seagull feeder and spotted fisherman fishing off the wall. You have access to the Beach, which was located just to the side of the building. It isn't visible from most of the units.

The outdoor pool was beautiful and big. The highlight of our stay (especially for the two 12yr olds with us) was the lazy river. It was surprisingly long conpaired to how it looked and the tubes are provided. There is a slide also, but we were disappointed that it was only open on weekends. We had plans to visit Schliterbaun but opted to just spend our time there and relax at the Condo and the boys were completely content.

The unit itself was beautiful decorated. It was very modern with bright cheerful colors and light airy but comfortable furniture. Flatscreen TV's with cable in both bedrooms and livingroom. LOVED the washer and dryer in the hall. The Master bath only has a shower but it HUGE with multiple shower heads. It was to DIE for. If you want to take a bath the second bath has a nice DEEP tub. The kitchen was modern with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. It was nicely stocked with utensils. Only problem I had was some of the cabnets were broken and need of repair.

All in all a wonderful stay!

Warning: The Realtor's office to check in is off property and quite a drive passed the Condos!
