Snag these rare opps to stay in these truly luxurious, very big, homes, right on the beach, with all the amenities, and YES this one does include a gas grill!
Diamond is truly extraordinary a 10BR 9BA upscale stand-alone beachfront home. Private (heatable!) & Community Pools. Elevator. Icemakers and fridges, all floors. Wow!
These homes are always full. We own Emerald, Sapphire and Diamond, all right next door to each other. Sapphire and Emerald are the identical 12BRs. More of...more! Get two. 24 bedrooms. Why not?! Diamond (10BR) too. Side x side x side! 34 bedrooms... All 3 were fully booked last summer and all the major holidays almost a year in advance, sometimes two for our repeat guests! Act quick!
Diamond is a 10 bedroom family-friendly luxury beach home located directly on the beach in an exclusive, gated community with zero-entry pools. Handicapped accessible features. Elevators. Firepit. The perfect vacation home for large groups, or small ones that like lots of space!
Diamond will very comfortably sleep 29. No sleeper sofas! And, because this is a big family friendly place, several of these beds are in one room that's perfect for either one big family or for most of the kids! Nestled on the third floor, this large family room has two twins, a futon, and 2 single bunks, sleeping up to 7!

POOLS -- Private Deck Pool AND Community Pool In addition to the zero-entry community pool located right across the drive from the home, the home also has its own private, elevated dipping pool at living room level. Dipping does NOT mean itty bitty. Its a 20x12x3.5' Rectangle. Sit in your living room, watch your kids play in the pool outside, how cool is that!? Or enjoy that beverage overlooking the gulf!
And we added a gas pool heater to the deck pool, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 84 (the high side of recommended rec pool temps) to take the chill off! This service is by request in advance with a per night surcharge for length of stay (gas is expensive right now, this does not actually recoup the cost!). Fee subject to change due to incredibly high gas rates right now. You may add it after booking by simply requesting the pool be heated any time after making the reservation and at least a few days before check in so we can get it on before you arrive. See our FAQ about heatable pools too.
TWO REFRIGERATORS Two? Yes two. Because you won't want to stay somewhere without an extra fridge once you have had them. And mini-fridges in wet-bar areas on the other floors too! Plus.. 2 dishwashers.
PARKING You can park 5-6 mid to full size vehicles in front and under the home. In addition, there are multiple overflow parking areas in the Cottages neighborhood, conveniently located nearby, not miles away! "Street parking" is not allowed -- parking in areas other than at the home and in the overflow parking areas -- per the HOA rules, and NO buses, trailers, or RVs are allowed to park anywhere in the community.
WIFI/INTERNET? YOU BET! YES! We have an awesome Eero multi-node mesh network fed by fiber optic for up to 1GB speeds (and we typically see 750+ in real world line speed tests at the home) to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home!? That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like? It is generally solid. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests "troubleshooting" it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction!
ELEVATOR? YES! Diamond has a residential elevator. This can be super helpful. The elevator entry, for those who might need to know for wheelchair and similar assistance, is 33".
Of note, the main level bedroom's bathroom has a zero-entry (no lip) shower with a 32" opening.
Please be mindful that elevators in homes are NOT commercial elevators like in hotels and so on. These are small elevators more akin to what you find in other countries and in big city apartments. They are not meant for kids running around, in and out of them, and using them for games. 🙂 So do not be surprised if something happens. Most commonly, a door is left open, or people walking into and out of them a bunch of times (which can cause them to lock out). For more info about the elevators, and some solutions to common problems, check out our FAQ about our beach home elevators.
TWO OTHER COTTAGES RIGHT NEXT DOOR And if 10 bedrooms is just not quite big enough, check out Emerald or Sapphire, 2 12 bedroom homes right next door, or any of our other wonderful family-owned homes. Emerald and Sapphire are identical 12 BR units, so if you want to sleep up to 88, well, that would do it! Or over 115 in all 3!
PLEASE NOTE that the Cottages at Romar neighborhood association has determined that no weddings or special events may be hosted in the property. This is applicable to our Jewels by the Sea. However, although you cannot host weddings or special events at the Diamond, Emerald, or Sapphire, you certainly can stay there during your trip and enjoy these large homes, their luxury, and the terrific neighborhood amenities.
GRILL Yes. There is a direct-plumbed gas grill for your use.
SOAPS, PAPER and BEACH TOWELS, COFFEE ETC ETC As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a "starter supply" of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). All bed linens and bath towels are provided (bath towels, we provide 1.25* the MAX Guests (not however many you reported). That's a lot, like more than 55 for 44 people; however, if you plan to 'pack the house' AND expect to use more than one towel per person, then may want to bring some more. You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Also also... all our homes have both drip coffee makers and Keurigs as well.
You ll love staying at the Sapphire at the Cottages at Romar. You ll wish you never had to go home. If you don t book early, you ll stop by wishing you could be here.
We have a number of smaller places as well, and also bigger: like taking 2 sides of a very nice duplex to get 20 (twenty!) bedrooms.
Ask. We ll help find the perfect place no matter what your vacation hopes, dreams, and desires may be!

This house is absolutely perfect for large groups! Very spacious with a natural gas grill, easy access to the beach, shade by the pool, in between all the attractions, and plenty of parking. It was a vacation to remember and we will be trying to get back to the Diamond in the future!

Diamond was the best!!!
We loved our week here! This house is incredible- large spaces for all of us to hang out together, but also enough room to spread out. The bedrooms are lovely. The house is perfect for big groups. The pool was great for night swims and a break from the ocean. The beach is just steps away! Our kids had a wonderful time jumping the waves and boogey boarding. I can't recommend this house enough. We hope to be back!
Home is very well maintained, lots of room for Family and friends. Awesome that everybody has their own Bathrooms, even handicapped. Right on beach with own entrance
Perfect having its own pool for all to enjoy all times of the day

Fantastic and incredibly easy
Working with BBH has been fantastic and incredibly easy. My family had such a great time staying in the Diamond, we booked again for next year and look forward to keep our family beach trip tradition alive with Bama Beach houses. Rick and his team have been extremely friendly and just a pleasure to work with.
We loved the house, very spacious for large crowds. Great lay out. Well equipped with things needed for cooking and grilling.
Everyone had a great time.
Especially loved being beach front. You can walk on the beach or just sit back on the balcony and relax.

Everything was great!
Everything was great! Everyone had a wonderful time - from the ones in the 80's to the children (ages 4-12). It's so perfect for our family because some can't stay out on the beach as long as others, but they can still watch the kids play from the patio. We love the home and the location. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
This property is perfect for large groups! Everyone had a wonderful time! The ice makers everywhere are so convenient, pool is the perfect size, the view cannot be beat! They have 2 of everything and there’s plenty of room to spread out if needed! We will be back! A+

We loved it!
We had a fabulous time and your beach home was a great home for us and the location couldn't be beat. We loved the little community and the community pool was such an added bonus! The elevator came in so handy as we had one who was not able to make it up and down those stairs. All the refrigerators and the ice makers were put to good use! The deck and the pool was such a nice gathering place. We loved it.

We agree with another review: wow!
We have stayed at a lot of the owners homes and they are all great. But... Diamond... wow! Its at the high end of the size, features and price, but we took advantage of a last minute opening and snagged Labor Day for what we normally pay for the others. We are spoiled now!

Beautiful and a perfect fit for our group
We had an absolutely amazing time!! The stay was great. The house was beautiful and a perfect fit for our group. The pool was perfect. Great size for us. We had other friends stay at other locations and the pool was small, so we were very happy with the size. Really we had no issues with anything. Everything in the house was clean and all in working order. I had lots of compliments on finding such a beautiful house on the beach. I would definitely book again in the future:)

Super helpful owners!
Great house in a wonderful location. House and pool were clean. Only downsize would be the need for kitchen tools for larger families. No real large cookie sheets or large skillet pans. Any questions or concerns were answered quickly through the vrbo messages. They were very helpful.
We loved the house, the location and access to the beach.
We selected this particular house because of number of bed rooms and the elevator. To me if they don't change the control panel or the way it operates it naturally will always be the way it is. When they have to put out a whole letter of do's and don'ts you should know they have a problem that needs to be fix.

Truly a gem!
We had a fantastic time at The Diamond! My family had nothing but amazing things to say about the house. It was so clean, beautiful, and had everything we needed. Ages ranged from 1 to 65, and everyone had a blast. The pool was perfect so the kids could swim, even on the chillier days, while the adults relaxed and watched/listened to the waves. My extended family and my husband, kids, and I come for spring break every year, and I've been coming yearly for over 20 years, and this is by far one of the best houses we have ever had the pleasure of staying in! Thank you for allowing us to spend the week in your Diamond! It truly is a gem!
