A family vacation for the ages

We just completed an 8 day vacation at Diamond in the Dunes and it was a perfect get away for our family. Highly recommend the accommodations for multiple family gatherings and time to decompress from the hustle and bustle. The only complaint is we had to come back to work. We will definitely rent with Bolivar Vacations again!

Great place for a big group

We stayed in this beautiful home to celebrate my 60th birthday with kids and grandkids. The grands loved the double bunk room! The adults were all happy to have their own bedrooms and bathrooms. A huge kitchen made meal prep stress free. Just a short walk from the beach was super convenient! Loved it and would stay again!

Wonderful Stay

We had a wonderful stay, the home was really clean, plenty of space for our big family, and we loved all the counter space in the kitchen! We had one year olds up to teens and it was great to let them play on the deck and in the house and not worry about stairs, and the deck had a gate and lots of seating! The bunk room had full size beds and it was a great space for the teens! There was a lot of thought put into this home, we really hope to stay again someday!
