Thanks for sharing about your experience at Diamond Beach 213. Our whole Sand `N Sea team is thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay and we hope to welcome you back again soon!
We really enjoyed the whole facility. The fbi had one complaint, the mattress in the primary room could use replacing, but even that wouldn’t keep me from rebooking. This is a great spot for families and has easy access to both town and beaches.

Thanks for sharing your feedback about the mattress. Our whole Sand `N Sea team is thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay and we hope to welcome you back again soon!
Property was excellent and very well organized. It had everything we needed and more. Master bedroom had a king size bed and beautiful walk in shower. The 2nd room had a bunk bed with full size bottom and a trundle. The washer and dryer in the unit was a life safer. Staff was pleasant and very helpful. We will definitely stay here again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication
Master bathroom sink was dirty with what appeared to be men’s beard trimmings. Kids bedroom top bunk did not have sheets put on. The bottom bunk sheets and comforter was believed to be dirty. The glass access door to balcony had a lock but was not functional which is a problem considering we had a toddler that could open the door. The AC did not cool effectively even with the sun shades down and unoccupied for most of the day. Inside temperature stayed around 74.

Nice, but not convenient
This property is more concerned with glass near the pool area than taking care of ridding ants near the pool area and disinfecting properly after a dead bird was in the children's pool area.
It is a very nice property. However, the slide is NEVER working, and the staff don't seem to care enough to attend to this issue.
The check in and check out process is not at all easy or convenient.
The staff is not at all overly friendly. All units are owned, and the Diamond Beach Condos staff just maintains the common areas. Or, do they?? Broken slide, ants, etc. etc.
There is no daily housekeeping. There are NO pool towels provided. Bring toilet paper, paper towels, extra dishwasher detergent and laundry detergent, extra bath towels and pillows and sheets, if you may need them because you won't be able to get anything extra at all other than what is in your rented unit.
One more thing: if there is any issue with your unit you rent (broken toilet, lock not working, etc.), you have to contact the property management company who through you booked....the property itself does not fix anything.
Check in: you have to park in circle drive and buzz in (hopefully, the front desk will be there...otherwise you will be standing outside the glass doors to the elevator forever), go to 2nd floor to check in and get key fob which you will need to get into parking garage and pool area and beach. The front desk staff does not tell you helpful info to know.
Albeit, the property is NICE!

Hi Sonja,
We are sorry to hear that your experience with the Diamond Beach facilities management wasn't all you hoped for. Unfortunately, we can only help with what happens in the condo unit itself, which is what we manage. We provide a starter kit of supplies for every one of our guests, and encourage guests to use the recommended packing lists and resources we send out prior to their arrival to make sure they have what they need. We are here 24/7 to help with anything you need in the unit - please don't hesitate to call us if there is anything we can do to help!
We encourage you to share your feedback about the facility with Diamond Beach directly.
