I would not stay here again. The home did not even have basic necessities such as handSoap, sufficient towels and pool towels, they advertise the pool as an amenity but yet there are no pool towels, if you’re traveling from out of state you do not have an abundance of items like hand soap and pool towels. When an amenity is advertised it typically means included such as the wash and dryer but no actual soap. Ryson is what I consider skimping on cleaning. I found two different socks, the apparent fully stocked kitchen is random items that aren’t even enough to cook with. Even the front desk staff said we are scared to checked in ryson guests and another said I would not book with them. The walls are covered in black marks and floors filthy dirty. All the wall mounts such as towel racks and toilet paper holders are broke.

Great option for a family. Enjoyed the second floor view better than our friend's higher floor view - had an infinity ocean effect. Comfortable furnishings and overall great stay. Would give 5 stars if there were a few more basics in kitchen (extra trash bag, an extra toilet paper roll, more than one cutting board, more than one dish towel), but otherwise was great! I recommend this resort

Awesome property with a few minor improvements needed

The resort was awesome with great amenities. The unit we stayed in was clean and very nice but a lot of things were not well attached to the wall (towel holders, toilet paper holders, and even the thermostat). I would recommend the unit cause it’s really nice but would love to see those few things fixed if we were to come back.

Excellent for Weekend Family Getaway

We stayed here with our two kids for the weekend and it was wonderful. The pool is perfect for small children and so much fun. Loved that you could walk right outside to the beach instead of having to cross the busy street to get to the seawall. The playroom was also really nice to have for the middle of the day when you want to keep the little ones out of the blazing sun. The kids were so happy playing on the beach and in the pool. We truly enjoyed our stay and cannot wait to go back.

Spring break 2024

We had a great time in Galveston. This property was perfect for my family! The location was super convenient, the amenities were great! Although it was a little cool and windy for swimming outside, the indoor pool was great! My only complaints would be that it took a really long time to get warm water and there was water leaking from the fridge. We had a great time and would absolutely stay here again!

As a BOI, my standards are high for when I come back home to the island. However, instead of staying with fam and friends we decided to try something new and this didn’t disappoint! The pools and lazy river and amenities were awesome- something for everyone!! Can’t wait to stay again soon!! Our new go-to! Clean and friendly.

Great family amenities!

Living on the Island we knew this property had some great amenities. It was the perfect staycation! The lazy river, huge pool and location on the beach were wonderful for a family stay. The kitchen was well equipped, just missing a pizza cutter, ice cream scoop and perhaps some more basic spices would be nice. Coffee filters and aluminum foil would also be good to offer guests. The bathroom door did not have a lock so that was another thing that could be improved. Overall a great location and stay for the whole family.

Just as pictured - only negative thing was the bathtub didn't drain very well and it was difficult to change from shower to faucet. Everything else was great. Diamond Beach is our favorite place to stay in Galveston with their amazing pools, hot tubs and most of all, the lazy river.

Quick Beach Trip

The condo was very nice. Patio was huge and had plenty of seating. It is one floor up from the pool. Pictures make it look level with the pool. The complex was nice. There were a few broken umbrellas. The cabana was nice and had a built in cooler. I wish the fence around the pool didn't block the view of the ocean. We loved the lazy river and having a full bar available on the weekend. Pool is huge and beautiful.

Great spot for family

The pool and lazy river are both nice, very well maintained and the kids enjoyed both. The unit we stayed in was nicely updated and as described. The unit was on the second floor so we had a larger balcony than other floors. The gym has good equipment and well maintained. Bring bug spray! Even though the resort sprays for mosquitos, they are fierce. My husband was actually swarmed and received about 50 plus bites...he did not spray so lesson learned. Location was away from the activity, but just about right. The only issue with the unit itself is the master bed/mattress, it needs to be replaced. I would also suggest that an all purpose cleaner be available in unit to wipe down the kitchen counters. My graddaughters had a blast though!
