Of the many homes that we have rented over the last 40 years, this has been our favorite one yet. The home is absolutely perfect for large families. The family room and kitchen are perfect and spacious as well. It was fully stocked with just about everything that you need to prepare large meals. Ice maker does not work so plan accordingly. The beds are comfortable and plenty of linens and towels. The only thing that would make this home even better would be having access to the lift. We have rented homes with a lift and it is really appreciated for us grandparents when we have a weeks worth of groceries and such to bring up. The owner was a delight to work with … he answered any questions I had and made our check in perfectly seamless. We had and wonderful time and made many new memories with our family. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

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!

This was a great home with everything and everyone on one floor. Interior deco was beautifully done. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our family. Large living, dining and kitchen for all of us to gather and visit. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking, but not for a large group. Outdoor deck and chairs were wonderful to sit, visit and view ocean. Outside downstairs would be wonderful for entertaining and visiting in the summer months. There were only a few things that would help to make this home an excellent place for a large family to stay (including grandparents to the smallest of grandchildren). To have the outside lift available to bring up supplies and suitcases. Even if the lift access would cost extra dollars. Safety rails for all showers and tub/showers. We did not fill comfortably standing in showers (all over 65 yrs old). Also, most pots for cooking were very worn and should be replaced. There was not a large pot for boiling water for pasta or potatoes. (We had to use 3 small pots) Overall the house is wonderful and clean. We would definitely stay there again.

Prom Night

Excellent rental! Very clean home with most essentials. The only thing we couldn’t find was a mop to clean any spills. The broom was broken and we couldn’t find a dustpan. WiFi signal was not the strongest but it was ok with our cell phones. Very roomy showers and tubs. Porch had plenty of seating to enjoy the view and breeze.

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!

Nice Christmas Time

The stay at the Diamond of the Dunes was excellent as it had everything necessary for a comfortable vacation. Our group of five families, a total of 20 people (11 adults and 9 children), celebrated a beautiful Christmas! The spaces in the house are spacious, the rooms are comfortable, and the kitchen is very large for cooking as a group. The balcony around the house is wonderful for great conversations with family since it has many comfortable chairs. The parking area is very spacious, and our 7 cars had enough room to unload our belongings!The weather wasn't in our favor, as there were some storms and rain during our stay, but it didn’t stop the kids from swimming and playing on the beach, nor the adults to walk along its shore. The charcoal grill was a plus for feeding the crew on the 3rd day; in Texas, every day is perfect for a barbecue! Something they should update is the cooking pots, as they are very worn out, and there are no medium-sized ones. Apart from that, the kitchen is very well equipped.

June 18-22

We had a great time. This house fit our 6 kids and 8 adults well. (Could have fit a few more). Communication was great, and the location is just a short walk to the beach. Having everything on one level in the house is a big plus for us. Only reason for 4 stars in stead of 5 is that we weren’t allowed to use the lift. That is not part of the listing, so it was communicated, but would have been nice to have the option. Even for a couple more $s. Would stay again, and would recommend to family and friends.

Celebrating

We celebrated not only the New Year but also our son in law’s birthday. Even though the weather gave us fog all weekend, the weather was nice and this beach house was perfect. Nice large kitchen/family area. The bedrooms were great with enough bathrooms for everyone. Beds were comfortable and the walk to the beach was very short! Property was very clean. We all loved our time!
