Thank you Mike. I am so glad you enjoyed your stay. You and your family were great guests! You are welcome back any time.
Spent most of the time on the lazy river. There was plenty of space in the pool, hot tub, and lazy river. The room was clean and well stocked with towels, sheets, blankets, and kitchen utensils. All appliances were in working condition. The facility staff were very nice and professional.
My family of 5 (my husband and I, plus three small children) really enjoyed our stay. The condo had enough room for our needs, the property had a lot to do for the kiddos, the proximity to the beach is great, and the host was fantastic to work with. We will stay here again!
Condo was perfect size for our family. Karen was awesome and helpful. Great location for beach, food and a lot of things to do in the building on a rainy day

Lovely condo with a generous host. Sent us back a lost book. Plenty of kitchen cooking supplies and spices and access to pool towels and some beach toys. Thanks for such a comfortable stay.

About the host
Hosted by Karen Madden
We are local business owners and long-time residents in Galveston. We are available to answer any questions or address any concerns during your stay, even if it's only a recommendation for a restaurant.
Why they chose this property
We bought this property because we fell in love with Diamond Beach, and wanted a place for family and friends to stay when visiting. We have furnished and supplied the unit as if it were a second home.
What makes this property unique
The views from the unit are simply breathtaking. When I stood in the kitchen, I could see for miles down the beach at low tide. Our kids loved the pools and game room. We love to relax at Bar None or work out in the fitness room, all the while enjoying amazing views of the Gulf of Mexico.
