Great place, rude resort staff
Lovely place, well appointed. Internet and tv sporadically worked, but not much care given to that as we were on vacation. The only issue was with property staff, none with the unit. There was a man with an English accent that was horribly rude! There were less than 8 people total poolside and he approached us very aggressively wanting to know what unit we were staying in and where our wrist bands were. I told him the unit and we had our bands, just did not have them on. He sat and watched us from a distance and appeared to take a picture of us with his phone. Less than 5 minutes later I got a call saying there was a leak in the room below me and maintenance would be going in my room. Of course, I went to the room and “maintenance” was the same creepy English man and another desk clerk. No leak was found but they went into every room of my unit. They also left the master key in our door that I had to return to the desk. This man made us feel so uncomfortable we did not use the pool area again. Not sure I would stay here again based ONLY on resort staff that in no means reflects the unit owners.

Spring Break Getaway
We've stayed at this property before in another unit a couple of years ago and loved it. The pools, lazy river, hot tubs, etc were all great. Front desk was great. This unit was ok. We were a bit underwhelmed. I tried reaching out to the management team twice before my stay and received no response. The apartment was just missing things. No coffee filters, no kitchen sink sponge or rag, no mixing / serving bowls, scissors that didn't work, it all seemed to be the absolute bare minimum. The master bedroom had glass sliding doors on entire wall which means people in the living room can see and hear anything in the master. Light shines straight in because there's no curtains in the living room. Anyone sleeping in the living room has the same. Awake at 7 am with bright light shining in. There were no lamps in the living room. None. Master bed was only a foot off the floor and the mattress was so soft you had to push up to get out. The multiple cords from the TV hung down across the fireplace. No end tables. Very few outlets to plug in devices. No USB outlets, at all. There was a mermaid picture above the fireplace that was just a bit awkward. Things like this. All small things but they add up. The owners need to take some time out to look at their property and ensure the management team is keeping it current. We will stay at Diamond Beach again. We will not stay at this unit again.

Room with a view
Beautiful property in a great location. The overall facility has great amenties including pools, lazy river, game room, workout room and close to the beach. Close to a variety of shops, restaurants, piers and right on the seawall for miles of biking or walking. Only downside was the condo had no basic supplies such as salt, pepper, spices, coffee filters, kleenex, beach towels or the common items typically found in a vrbo.

Excellent accommodations!
We loved the unit and all the amenities at the complex. View is amazing. Unit was very clean and well appointed. Even in the very cold weather, we had family fun in the game room and theater. This was the second stay for us and we will definitely be back.
