Excellent stay at Diamond Beach

We really enjoyed our time. The property has several amenities that make it perfect for families. We loved the lazy river and the pools. The beach is a very short walk and overall is likely not that much further than walking across the road at the seawall, just much safer. Gigi was wonderful to work with and her place was very nice. Great stay!

The communication was immediate and informative within hours of the booking. We had everything we needed for the trip with the amenities in the condo and the property. The blue binder continued recommendations for the island and some history clippings to enjoy. The bedrooms were the first rooms when entering the condo. The restroom were stocked with some necessary items. The view from the inside allowed us to watch all the storm clouds proceed in from the gulf. During the stay, we were able to make immediate contact with the host about a few items we noticed. She appreciated the call and we were able to talk like we had knew each out previously. Again, communication was key. We ended the movie theater downstairs and enjoyed the arcade area. We would visit the condo again.

Unbelievable views. The property is very well kept up with beautiful landscaping. The owner Gigi is very personable and a very talented painter. My Pop wanted to buy the painting in the living room of the lady on the beach in a red dress. If possible we will be back soon.
Sun rise on the balcony. Coffee never tasted better.

We have been coming to Diamond Beach for years. This was our first stay in 601, and we loved it! It is spacious, beds were comfortable, and had plenty of extras. Mrs Gigi was very gracious and informative. Will plan to return to 601 next summer.

Relaxing Getaway

The owner was amazingly helpful and friendly. The condo is well stocked with kitchen and bathroom supplies. It is quiet, peaceful and private since it is on the corner of the building. Loved leaving the bedroom window curtains slightly open so that we awaken too the light of the morning sunrise off the beach. Then taking morning coffee out on the balcony too watch the sunrise and listen to the waves, doesn't get any better. 100% will visit again
