10BR 9BA Extraordinary, upscale beachfront home. Private & 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!

All bunks are twin over twin at Diamond.

There is a beach side living room on the main floor, and another living room on the second floor. Need a beverage? There are wet bars with mini-fridges and stand-alone ice-makers on the second and third floor so you can save yourself the trip down the stairs (or elevator!). The second floor also has its own washer and dryer because when you are on vacation why would you want to carry your clothes up and down the stairs (or in the elevator) more than you absolutely have to!?

In addition to the community pool, Diamond at the Cottages at Romar also has its own private, elevated pool at living room level. Sit in your living room, watch your kids play in the pool outside, how cool is that!? And if 10 bedrooms isn't big enough for you and your crew, check our Emerald and Sapphire, these two homes each have a whopping twelve, yes 12, bedrooms!
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 their during your trip and enjoy these large homes, their luxury, and the terrific neighborhood amenities.

Added a propane gas pool heater, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 82' (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. Any online quote will show the optional fee and its current pricing. You may also 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.
You'll love staying at the Diamond at the Cottages at Romar. You'll wish you never had to go home. If you don't book early, you might drive by Diamond and wish it were you, and not some other group, staying in such a nice vacation home!

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!

Perfect for our group
We had a great time. Everything went great with the house. We had an issue with the elevator when getting settled in, but were able to reset it by flipping the breaker (I followed the steps in the videos on your website). The management company answered when we called about the elevator, but we were able to get it fixed without anyone needing to come out to the house. The house was clean when we arrived. The house itself was perfect for our group. Overall, we had a great experience and will certainly look to book one of your houses again in the future.

Great experience
We had a great time and I really appreciate the communication and professionalism from Bama Beach Houses... Everything went great with the house. We had an issue with the elevator when getting settled in, but were able to reset it by flipping the breaker (I followed the steps in the videos on your website). The house itself was perfect for our group. Overall, we had a great experience and will certainly look to book one of your houses again in the future.

About the host

Host profile image
Instructional designer. Behavior change researcher. Father of 3. Teacher. Soccer coach. Hoosier. I'm interested in why people do the things they do, what we can do to change those things so that folks live happier and healthier lives, and how technology can help. Plus, well, I love Gulf Shores!

My wife's family have traveled to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach Alabama for decades. I became a tag along in the late 1990s, so a Gulf Shores guy by marriage. One thing led to another and we ended up a several large, family-friendly, large group friendly, places along the Gulf.

Because sometimes you just need a lot of really nice space for family and friends to spread out. Sadly, I have only managed to stay in my own home a handful of times because the Jewels by the Sea (Emerald, Sapphire, and Diamond at the Cottages at Romar) are ALWAYS booked. I love this home, and the location. The dipping pool on the deck is great, and the community one is perfect for taking a break from the beaches!

This one is just a smidge smaller, and a bit less, if 12 BR is just too big!
