Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This sun-kissed waterfront home is loaded with lovely beach decor, comfortable furniture, and a private balcony with views of the grounds and breathtaking sunrises over the gulf. After parking in the secured garage, step into the home to find a spacious and well-appointed interior, and stretch out on the living room sofa to catch up on a good book or watch a movie or show on the large flatscreen cable TV. You'll love the bright and beachy vibes throughout the home, particularly when you prepare tonight's meal in the full kitchen - it's equipped with awesome cookware, counter space, appliances, and an industrial sink sprayer to make short work of those dishes, the perfect space for the family chef. Serve up to six guests at the dining table or take your meals outside on the balcony to dine al-fresco against the spectacular sunsets over the gulf. Be sure to serve your friends a few cocktails mixed with local spirits from Texas Tail Distillery, just four-and-a-half miles away. On those rare days when you're not out surfing the cool gulf waters, take a walk around the immaculate resort to explore the lazy river and the rolling outdoor pools. You'll also have easy access to the seawall for those long walks with a loved one. The main bedroom features a king-size bed, lovely gulf views, and an en-suite bath with a walk-in shower featuring a dual showerhead. The second bedroom has a queen bed and a mounted flatscreen TV. Let the luxury and convenience of Diamond Beach fill your vacation with sun, sand, and lots of happy memories!

What's nearby:
You'll have beach access at Beach Pocket Park, just a mile west, so be sure to pack an extra bathing suit, because your Galveston vacation is going to be filled with plenty of sand and surf! Schlitterbahn Waterpark Galveston is only three miles northwest with attractions like Wave Lagoon, Dragon Blaster, and Guada Loopy. Moody Gardens is less than a mile further with aquarium and rainforest pyramids, plus lots of other family-friendly exhibits and adventures the kids will love!

Diamond 201 is a diamond.

The location even on the 2nd floor is great cause got could really hear tge water. The corner unit was light and bright. The rooms are all huge, the kitchen awesome and well stocked. Loved the location to the back elevator and the lobby is on the same floor and has coffee in the morning. Great location we were very comfortable.

Not Quite What We Expected

We just wrapped up our stay, and overall, it was okay — though it didn’t quite live up to the description. One major letdown was the misleading mention of beach access. What appeared to be a beach entrance was actually large, impassable rocks, so there was no true beach access from the property.Our unit looked like the photos online, which we appreciated. However, it was dusty and needed a deep clean. When we arrived, the entire place smelled strongly of weed, and we found a vape cartridge on the balcony. We also had to replace the remote control batteries ourselves.The common areas — including the pool and lazy river — were a nice feature and certainly better than other options in Galveston. At the same time, they were slightly below our personal cleanliness standards. The hallways and shared spaces had a noticeable odor and what felt like a film of grime.On the positive side, having an in-unit washer and dryer was a big help during our stay. The kitchen was also well-stocked with cooking supplies, which made meals easier and more convenient.We were thankful for the amenities provided, even though the experience didn’t fully match our expectations.

Great stay

Our family loved it. We had the pool and lazy river to ourselves throughout most of our stay! It was peaceful and relaxing. We went between the beach and the lazy river. We got great use out of the kitchen as we ate most our meals there. We will definitely come back.

Galveston Getaway

Our room was so spotless, cozy, peaceful from the moment we arrived. They left nothing out, everything you needed was available. I would definitely recommend this place. Loved the security of this complex and how much they took care of us. We really didn’t need to leave for anything but food. Pool, lazy river, game room, kids play room was amazing! We definitely plan on being back with our family!

There was an abundance of activities on the property and off property. The unit was beautiful and very clean. The beach was steps away. I will visit again.
