Perfect for multigeneration vacations -- for those young or young at heart. We have room from Grandma & Grandpa, Mom & Dad, and 4 kids. Grandma & Grandpa can sit on the balcony and watch the kids play in the pool. Elevators and ramps are throughout the property for those with mobility issues.



Book a massage at Oasis Spa, float around the 750-ft lazy river, or fall asleep listening to the seagulls and waves. Diamond Beach has the most incredible amenities for all our guests!



Those amenities include a 24-hr concierge; state-of-the-art fitness center; game room with video games (free — leave your quarters at home), pool table, shuffleboard, and Wii consoles; kid's playroom; heated indoor pool; and a business center with computers, printer & internet.



Golf arcade game is an absolute must!



Stop by the Concierge desk to check out pool cues or shuffleboard pucks on your way to the game room. Those of you of a certain age may enjoy the Space Invaders or Defender video games. Maybe you are in the mood for a movie? Reserve the 35-person large-screen theater with deep lounge-type seating.

Unfortunately, this building does not allow pets for our guests.



We’ve spoken with the seagulls and have asked them to not dirty our balcony after we have cleaned it. However, sometimes they do not listen. We apologize in advance for Mother Nature and have provided spray and paper towels for a quick wipe, if you choose.



Building and condo is completely accessible (ramps & elevators). There is a threshold to get onto our balcony, however (3-4 inches). Same for the entrance into the master shower.



Perfect for 3 generation getaways; cheerleading shows and pre/post cruise extensions.



** Why should you choose a condo over a house?



1. Lower Cost: Condos are often more affordable than houses, especially for smaller groups or couples.

2. Amenities: Many condos include shared amenities like pools, gym, or beach access.

3. Prime Locations: Condos are often in central or desirable areas, such as near beaches, city centers, or ski resorts.

4. Security: Gated communities or shared spaces may offer extra safety features.



** Neighborhood **

☀ Moody Gardens

☀ Schlitterbahn Waterpark

☀ Historic Pleasure Pier

☀ Historic Strand District

☀ Seawolf Park on Pelican Island

☀ Ocean Star Offshore Drilling Rig and Museum



** Getting Around **

The whole island is car friendly, but parking can get a bit crazy during peak times. Here are some alternatives.



We are 3 miles from the nearest Galveston Island Trolley (est 1891). Walk or drive and then jump on for $1 -- transfer between the Downtown & Seawall Loop is included in price.



☀ Rent a 4-person bike to ride along the seawall.

☀ Rent a golf cart.

☀ Rent a Slingshot.
