Summary:

The Space:
This dreamy, luxurious condo feels like an oceanside fantasy. Get carried away by Western Waves!


Inside this condo awaits breathtaking views, modern features, splendid decor, and an abundance of opulent comfort.


The best part is the wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows with show stopping views of the ocean, beach, pool and the gorgeous resort. You will be unable to take your eyes off of the stunning sights.


The view gets even better when you step outside onto your massive private balcony, complete with an outdoor dining area, and multiple cushioned chairs.


Step back inside and be delighted by the open-concept living area and kitchen. The earthy tones blended with floral colors and adorable details give off an almost fairytale-like quality.


Relax on the couch or one of the chairs, even put your feet up on one of the cozy footrests. 


The mounted smart TV has access to cable and streaming!


The sparkling kitchen is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances and stocked with cookware, silverware, glassware, dishes, and utensils. Enjoy the dual coffee-maker, kettle, toaster, and collection of spices.


Check out the Samsung Smart Fridge that lets you access tons of apps like Spotify, Pandora, YouTube, and more, and enjoy a cold, refreshing glass of water thanks to the ice maker and water filter. 


The impressive Master suite has a beautiful Queen bed, dresser, TV, ensuite bathroom, large closet, his and hers sinks, lots of counter space and storage, and an oversized tiled shower with glass door.


The 2nd bedroom has a Queen, mounted TV, and closet. Feel like having a game night? Check out the collection of boardgames in the closet.


The 3rd bedroom has a lifted twin bed with an additional twin underneath, a TV, and a closet.


The lovely and spacious 2nd bathroom is located in the hallway and has a tiled shower with an extremely deep tub, perfect for a relaxing soak. The washer and dryer is located in the bathroom closet.

Annual Beach Trip
We stayed at this property last year and had a wonderful time. This year however, the condo was rundown and needed some TLC. The lock on the patio door was broken, toaster was broken, no remotes for the ceiling fans, the patio furniture was corroded etc. This would have warranted a 4 star rating but because the property manager never replied to any of my messages throughout the weekend, I gave it a 3 star rating.

Beautiful area and resort but independent condo needed some TLC.
There were several small issues that added up to some significant hassles. We contacted the service manager and he did his best with the situation. We did have a great time and our adventure was what we made of it. Beautiful views, awesome property and amenities, & lots of activities in the area. Overall a great time!

Great location on a quiet side of the beach, fantastic unobstructed ocean views and amenities. Property could be a bit cleaner, one sink was clogged with hair, some dirt on baseboards. Bed mattresses need to be changed as they’re too soft and sunk. Also need a new toaster and replace pans and pots. Most knives unusable, need sharpening. In general, great property and outside of the few aforementioned annoyances we’d stay here again.

Nice visit for family reunion
This was a nice place for our family but as the resort was not busy this time of year, getting hot water to the shower took a very long time. Not sure there was a fix for this but 10+ minutes was a long time to wait with water running.

Great pool & beach
Had a lovely weekend at the property, top quality, well stocked kitchen (only hitch was the toaster was broken). Fantastic pool and lazy river and the beach is right next door. Quite a few beach toys for younger kids. It would be good to have beach towels and a beach umbrella for summer visits. Very quiet location, we didn't have a car but there was a small grocery store for basics (including alcohol) and a wonderful restaurant and coffee shop across a busy road from the condo (be super careful crossing) We ordered from Uber eats for one night - lots of choices if you don't want to drive.

The TV service is not user friendly. We did not get service on two (2) of the (4) TVs. The main TV was spotty. Had sound at times and then no sound. Frustrating!

Diamond Beach Getaway
We stayed at Western Waves while our grandkids were attending the Texas A&M Sea Camp. It was the perfect place for them to have fun after they finished camp each day. They enjoyed the beach, swimming pool and lazy river. The condo was lovely, just as advertised. And the process from check-in thru check-out was seamless. We would definitely stay here again.

Would love to return someday!
We had a an amazing time here. The pool was kid friendly with lots of shallow area and a splash pad. Perfect for my 2 toddlers. Beach access is a bit of a walk if you have little kids and a load to haul, but doable. You go out the corner of the property and walk down a worn trail to beach access next door. Balcony furniture is a worn and needs replaced. Ice maker didn’t work well - bring your own ice. Overall loved the condos and it’s amenities including pool, play room, friendly staff, and lazy river. The place is well kept and beautiful. Would book here again in a heartbeat.
