5PH3 @ Diamond Beach is the perfect place to enjoy Galveston!

Besides all this property has to offer (amazing views, parking, beachside, lazy river, indoor and outdoor pools, pool bar, game and movie room, and kids zone), our stay was made special because we had an owner who obviously loves his property and goes above and beyond to make sure you have the best stay possible. This was my second time to use the penthouse and we already have plans to return in October. This place is worth every penny!

Great resort

Resort is great lots of stuff for the family to do. The owner was really responsive and helpful. My only negative would be bring your own pillows the pillows are very stiff unless you like your pillows that way then your good. All in all I would highly recommend it

Wonderful Beach Retreat

The condo was clean and updated. The rooms and living areas were roomy and nice. The balcony had a fantastic sitting area with an awesome beach view. Covered parking was nice. The pools and lazy river were huge. A wonderful place.

Family get away

I would recommend this place to anyone. It is in a perfect place to get away. Close to Galveston but yet out of the crowd. Enjoyed waking up having coffee sitting on the deck watching dolphins play. The lazy river was relaxing after a day on the beach.

Rcent Stay

We absolutely loved our stay at Diamond Beach Penthouse. The property was beautiful and clean with a great view. We were a little nervous about being overcrowded on a holiday weekend, but the property was so big and so much to do that we never felt overwhelmed by people. It was a very relaxing stay for us and we hated to leave. Owner was great to deal with. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Peaceful weekend retreat.

We stayed here to get away from the Chicago winter. The picture of the view and the “penthouse” in the description got our attention and we booked it. This place exceeded our expectations. Everything about this property from the location to the unit to the swimming pools and lazy river were exceptional. It felt more like a resort. The owner is meticulous and really has dialed in every aspect of the living experience. We would highly recommend this rental. We have shared it with our friends and family and look forward to going back next year.

Wonderful apparent

Blessed with a westerly aspect and practically on the beach with generous space inside and on the veranda. You have access to indoor and outdoor swimming pools, gas barbecues and are close to the centre of Galveston. The apartment is spotlessly clean and fully equipped with large televisions and the host is keen to help you with any problems (we asked for a shower seat and he delivered one to us in a couple of hours). Highly recommended!

I couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to take a girls getaway.

The condo was lovely and it had all the facilities one could imagine. The beds from mattresses to linens are very comfortable. You wake up to a gorgeous view of the ocean and can enjoy coffee to a an afternoon cocktail on the beautiful furnished patio. We will definitely contact Aaron for a future visit. From security to amenities the pools, lazy river, and hot tubs were all there to enjoy. Aaron was a gracious host and checked to see that we were satisfied and left contact information if we needed anything during our stay. I would highly recommend this condo if you’re looking for a safe, well maintained condo with many options offered. Sincerely, Georgene

Fantastic View

This unit was perfect for our trip with elderly parents. This penthouse is close to the elevators but we never heard any noise inside our unit. We all enjoyed the pool, lazy river and hot tubs. We also tried out the arcade and theater. The entire unit was very clean and well maintained. In spite of the weather during our stay, we had a terrific family vacation. Our host was prompt in all responses and took great care of us.

Birthday and the Beach

Our stay in 5PH3 was exceptional. We came to celebrate my 65th birthday and was delighted with everything about this condo and the owner. Communication began from the minute we booked and continued throughout the stay if needed. The unit was beautiful supplying everything we could want or need. The Diamond Beach grounds are amazing. It felt like a tropical paradise from the pool to the lazy river and beach. The view is fantastic. We enjoyed watching the birds, boats and even dolphins from the balcony. We have decided birthday at the beach in 5PH3 is going to become an annual even! Thanks for sharing your lovely vacation home with us!!

An Unforgettable Beachfront Getaway!!

My stay at this beach house condo was absolutely perfect. The location couldn’t be better—right on the beach with stunning ocean views from every room. The condo was immaculately clean and well-maintained, with modern amenities and tasteful decor that made it feel like a true home away from home. The spacious living area and fully equipped kitchen made it easy to relax and enjoy meals. The host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, providing detailed information about the condo and surrounding area, which helped us make the most of our stay. Whether you’re looking to relax by the beach, explore local attractions, or simply unwind, this condo offers everything you need for a perfect vacation. I can’t recommend this beach house condo highly enough—it exceeded all of our expectations and made for an unforgettable experience. We can’t wait to return!

Perfect retreat, great shower, really clean, comfy beds

My 7.5 year old and I had a really great say at the Diamond Beach 5ph3 location. The place was very clean, had plenty of pots, pans, dishes, silverware for our stay. The beds were VERY comfortable. The Master Bath shower was fantastic - my son wants a rain shower now (lol). The clothes washer & dryer worked very well. Dishwasher was super quiet and appears new. Refrigerator & Freezer were super clean and worked great. There were adequate towels - but - could have used more if more guests were staying. The Washer Dryer took care of the issue, so I don't look at as a negative. I will definitely look to stay in this unit again (this is my 2nd time at the Diamond Beach Condos - this is the best of the two. Views were amazing. Neighbors were very quite. I loved our stay!! Owner/Property manager provided all the information we needed and answered several of our questions right away. Great communicator !
