Diamondmine — Guest Reviews

This home is beautiful, very clean, comfortable beds and great views. The kitchen had everything you need. Great communication with the property manager. Perfect place for a quiet, relaxing getaway from busy life and work.

Wonderful house!!! With an Amazing dining room table... Rooms where large with plenty of beds...

Our original house canceled on us three weeks before our vacation due to unforeseen circumstances, luckily this house was available to fit our large group! Of course, I looked at pictures, but the house was even better in person than it was online. It was very clean, the kitchen was so well stocked, probably the most well equipped kitchen we have had. We have been coming to this area for over 10 years with a large group of friends and this year was definitely one of the best. We had great communication with the property manager, she addressed our questions immediately as well. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean, and the beach was easily accessible. Wonderful house and we highly recommend it!

We had a group of sixteen: parents, children with spouses, and eight grandchildren. We swam in the ocean and the pools, played pickleball, biked, and ate like kings. It is a great house and a great location. Dee Dee and her team are the best!

We absolutely loved it. Views, house, beach, pool and community was absolutely amazing. The 2 refrigerators and 2 dishwashers were a game changer for vacationing. The house was perfect for our group.

Diamondmine was the perfect house for our extended family - spacious, clean, well-equipped, and lots of parking. The double/double bunk beds were perfect for our older kids. Our Coastal View contact was super friendly and helpful. This house will definitely be on our list for a future stay!

We planned our big family Thanksgiving vacay early this year for some time in the mountains, not the beach. Hurricane Helene tore through NC so our plans changed. We didn't see this home and booked place #2 in Destin. Three days before check-in, the home developed a major leak. We scrambled one more time and thankfully, this home was available and ... absolutely perfect. We had a lot of specific needs: 6 bedrooms with at least three primary bedrooms and one on the main level; pet friendly and room enough for 11 or 12. This house more than met our needs. Although we didn't plan for a beach trip originally, this getaway to Fort Morgan was exactly what our big extended family needed and we're so grateful this wonderful home was available when we needed it. Everything from the layout, room configuration, comfy king beds, two large refrigerators, dishwashers, and microwaves, huge deck overlooking the ocean, easy-to-sweep floors (to keep sand from driving you crazy) ... everything ... was absolutely perfect for our big brood. The property managers were wonderful, too. From us needing to add an extra pet at the literal last minute to texting with me as we checked in and on our first full day to give us the lay of the land with Blue Angels flights, they were so kind, professional, helpful and made our stay even better. And yes, we had our own personal airshow as the Blue Angels practiced right in front of our home almost every day. We loved it! Oh, the kitchen — in addition to the double fridges, dishwashers and microwaves, there are pots and pans, utensils, serving pieces, small appliances, etc. for anything you need to do in the kitchen. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner and a gazillion other meals in that kitchen and had all the tools we needed. The weather was gorgeous during our week there so we spent days on the beach and nights watching movies, putting together puzzles and more. It was a wonderful vacation and

We loved our stay at Diamond Mine!The house was perfect for our family. Beds were comfortable, plenty of space to hang out together, kitchen was well-equipped. I was happy with how clean it was - and I'm picky about that! Loved the front porch for the rainy days. We could still enjoy watching the waves and the sounds of the ocean. It was a very short, easy walk to the beach. Not technically beachfront, but very close! Management company was awesome! We had a problem with the icemaker and they responded immediately and had a repair man there the same morning. Any questions I had were answered very quickly. I would not hesitate to stay here again when we make it back to Fort Morgan. The beach was beautiful and not crowded at all at this time of year. The whole area was very nice.

This was our first stay at a Gulf Shores location in the Fall. It was wonderful: the house was clean and an easy walk to the beach. The beach was not crowded like it is in the summer months.Traffic around the area was minimal. Hope to take future vacations in the Fall and stay at the same wonderful property.

All as advertised. Access to beach was good. Accommodations very Good. Enjoyed.

This home and rental company exceeded our every expectation! Our original property had numerous issues and Jen and DeeDee went above beyond to get our family settled! This home has everything you could ask for, and the view is perfection! We will absolutely be returning! Perfect! Perfect! Perfect!

The beach house, Diamondmine is a great beach house for family or a couple. This beach house is beautiful and very spacious. It has a great view of the ocean and the beach. It has everything you need for a long vacation stay.

This home was perfect! It had everything you could need, was exceptionally clean, and the view was awesome! We can't say enough good things about this property! We will be returning!

Perfect!

Great House! Everything was clean and kitchen well stocked . Plenty of rooms for big family the grandkids loved the bunk rooms

Fabulous stay with plenty of room for the extended family! Very clean, great kitchen and family room. Wonderful time!!

This was our second year to stay at Diamondmine. It is a wonderful house and location for a good family trip. It’s an easy walk right across the sand to the beach. There are plenty of rooms and bathrooms to accommodate a large group. The property manager and owner responds very quickly to any problem or request. The upstairs water wouldn’t warm up and I texted the property manager. There was a worker and the owner at the house very promptly. They did not hesitate and replaced the hot water heater in no time. Thanks again for all you did to make this another great beach trip.

This was the perfect place for my family and friends to get away and relax! There was plenty of room and we spent hours on the deck drinking coffee, eating, visiting and enjoying the view! Location was great and easy to get to. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and cooked several meals. It was nice having two fridges and two fish washers. This place has a lot to offer! You won’t be sorry for staying here!

This home is gorgeous and the location is perfect! Everything was clean and the management company was wonderful! Great communication and anytime we had a question it was answered immediately. We’ve been coming to this area for the past 7/8 years and this was by far the best one! We had a small group- 3 adults, but this home is huge and would be perfect for a large family. The beach is steps away, and the large porch facing the beach was our favorite spot to be. The area was quiet and relaxing. I cannot say enough how perfect this place is! We will definitely be return customers! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Perfect location, beautiful beach views! Steps from the beach.. we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is gorgeous and very clean. Had everything we needed. If we had any questions, they answered immediately. This home would be perfect for a large family. We can’t wait to come back!

Great home for multiple families to come together and enjoy. Lots of space and beautifully decorated. Kitchen is well stocked and the beds are comfortable. There was construction on 2 other homes but the workers were friendly and hinder our fun in any way. We will be back!!

We had a great experience with our large family. Excellent layout for large families with great beach access. Plenty of covered parking. There is new construction in front of the property that you need to be cautious around especially wear shoes when walking outside. Our only issue was the deadbolt was locked upon arrival so we could not get in but the manager was very quick to respond.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Diamondmine. The rental was spacious and open enough for our family to constantly interact during the Christmas weekend. The view of the Gulf water was outstanding, the kitchen had everything you needed to prepare and store meals and the bedrooms were so nice. The floors were a little dirty/sandy, only one motion light worked at night going up and down the steps during our stay, a few other minor things that were addressed & other than that a great stay. Would definitely rent this house again.

Diamondmine is a good large group/family vacation home. The open kitchen/living room design is really great for getting everyone in the same place for meals or enjoying a football game on tv. The bedroom layout is well designed as well with the bunk rooms being wonderful for the children. The proximity of the beach to the house was also good for taking young children to the beach. The property manager was extremely helpful and accessible. I would definitely recommend this property.

We had a great group of people who were well accommodated. Appreciate the quick service when the AC had a hiccup.

This was our first time vacationing in Fort Morgan and we had a wonderful family vacation at Diamondmine. The house was great for our multi-generational family- the house is laid out wonderfully so each of the five families had their space too. The view of the beach from the king bedrooms & deck is amazing. The two bunk rooms are large and worked well - older grandkids in one and the younger grandkids in the other. The kitchen is well stocked - we do most of our own cooking on vacation so really appreciated the kitchen. The beach is just a short walk away - even for the younger kids. The beach is very family friendly and not crowded which is very nice! The pool access is great too for a change from the beach when needed. Dee, the property manager, is wonderful and quick to respond if you need anything. We enjoyed meeting her. There are things to see in the area too - watch the Blue Angels practice, saw alot of dolphins, & visited the fort. The house is close to grocery stores or anything you may need. Great location! Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Overall our experience was great. This house accommodates up to 26 and we had 20 planned to attend so there was plenty of room with enough places to sit and eat meals. The two bunkrooms were a great feature as assigned one for the young girls and boys in the group. With this large of a group we didn't feel like we were cramped for space. The house is 100 yards from the beach which was not crowded. Recently we we stayed at the Grayton Beach/ Seaside area in FLA but opted for Fort Morgan as there is a lot less congestion and beach crowding. Kitchen was very well appointed with plenty of storage for dry goods. Will definitely consider this house for the future as the Property Manager was great. The deck needs more lounge chairs which I think is being resolved.

Diamondmine was a beautiful spacious home that was well maintained but for a few outdoor chairs that were failing but we had brought our own. I am sure they have replaced them for future guests. All of my adult children and my grandchildren had their own beautiful rooms with beautiful views of the gulf! The gulf water was warm. There were a few jellyfish we had to watch out for but the kids were amazed at all the sea life. Fort Morgan is off the beaten path. No crowds, a private beach!! 2 pools were available and the grands sure enjoyed them! We brought tennis rackets but somehow felt a little lazy to play on the beautiful lit courts. The family is bugging me already to book for next summer. We all had a great time!! Lynn

Beautiful Beach House right on the beach. Slept 15 of us comfortably and has everything you need to relax, cook and enjoy yourselves. Location is perfect to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach.

Great Property in a great location.

From the beginning there was great communication with the rental company who were very accomodating. The view from the deck and bedroom windows was breathtaking. It had everything we need to 4 families to have an awesome weekend getaway.

This home is gorgeous! It was so clean, property manager was so sweet, and the distance to the beach was great.

This is an amazing rental! The house was very clean, great furnishings, larger than expected, and the beds were more comfortable than a 5 star hotel. It was so peaceful waking up to the sunrise over the ocean and hearing the waves from my large bedroom window. The house is on the beach but set back slightly, felt very private. Our host was super nice and helpful - she even provided her personal cell phone number in case I had any questions or concerns. When I mentioned a possible issue, she had sent a repairman that day. Overall, we had a great vacation and I will definitely be back!
