“Initial Check In Problem. Fabulous Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 22, 2013

Had some problems at check in as the Travel Agent and Hotel had some disagreement and I was told by the hotel that my booking did not exist. I was told I would have to pay again when checked in. However after contacting the Travel Agency they had a discussion with the hotel and everything was resolved.
I had prepaid for the hotel through the travel agent and the cost was aprox £100 per night.
The rooms are exactly as advertised on their website, very good with a suite, kitchenette and high quality TV's etc. I was in a Gulf View and the view was fabulous.
The pool area is very good and the beach bar was good value and the service was excellent
No charge for parking in the complex and always plenty of space.
The hotel had numerous strong points, but the location was excellent, right on the beach but close enough to walk into the Times Square area for eatteries etc so we were not reliant on the car.

With regards to the area the only issue I noticed and this is not a fault of the hotel, the road network clearly cannot cope with the demand. So accessing / leaving the island when the weather is nice can be tedious. We arrived on a very nice day and it took us around 25 mins to get to the hotel as the traffic was horrendous. This was not a problem as the island is fairly self sufficient so we just didn't use the car.
The bars and restaurants in the area were very good, especially the Yucatan.

I would recommend this hotel in a heartbeat and if we venture to Florida again this will be somewhere we will surely visit again

Room Tip: They are all good

Dear Cheapies,

Thank you so much for taking the time to review your stay with us at DiamondHead Beach Resort. I assure you that each guest’s comfort/satisfaction is of the utmost importance to us and we will share your input with our staff in an effort to better your future experience with us – and all of our other guests’. We are sorry that you were inconvenienced at check in. Your Agency had cancelled your initial reservations when the dates of stay changed and we assumed your plans had changed as we did not hear back from the Agency. I am pleased to hear that our agents were able to accommodate your reservation and that our property and employees exceeded your expectations. In addition, the Town of Fort Myers Beach is meeting this week to discuss the peak season traffic congestion and looking at ways to alleviate the time it takes to exit the island this time of year. We look forward to you staying with us in future years.

Sincerely,

Neil Hopgood

“The perfect beachfront vacation!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 21, 2013

I can't say enough good things about the DiamondHead Beach Resort Hotel! The staff are friendly, helpful and professional and the facility is very well-maintained and updated. The resort sits right on the beach and all the rooms have large screened-in balconies so you can keep your suite open to the breeze off the Gulf. We had a wonderful time and plan to return.

Room Tip: We enjoyed the gulf/pool view room, but there really isn't a bad room in the place. We were on t...

“Wish we could have stayed longer!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 19, 2013

We only spent one night at the beach during our trip and had a beautiful room at the Diamondhead. The suite was very nicely appointed and very comfortable. The beach bar was under construction but it should be finished soon. Beach access is easy and the hotel is close to the center of the Fort Myers Beach pier and downtown area. The screened porches are great but my husband did not enjoy ours as much because we had a corner location that allowed us to see into other rooms/porches. I think this was called a Gulf View.

Room Tip: Avoid the ones where the building turns a corner. You want the ones that face straight out for more...

“bad service horible location if you want quiet”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed February 16, 2013

stayed for 10 days and every day we had to call for missing towels, toliet paper and coffee, we were then told the coffee would cost more if we had more then 1 in our room. the coffee pot was for 3 cups and we had four people in the room, the front desk people were rude except for 2 of them. all they really want to do is sell condos they call your room repeatedly and we were on the 8th floor the view was nice but if you looked down you had a view of the garbage which stunk even on the 8th floor. would never go back AGAIN

“Everything you hope for”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 16, 2013

We just spent four nights on the seventh floor of this hotel. The expansive view from the balcony is unparalleled, the suite is spacious, clean and bright, the beds comfortable, and the staff friendly. It's nice to have a kitchen with a fridge. If you only have a few days, this is the place to stay. You walk out of the hotel directly out onto the beach, into sand as soft as flour, rent a couple of beach chairs and an umbrella for the day, read and watch the volleyball players, walk back the few steps to the outdoor restaurant for lunch, and then sit back down and wait for a magnificent sunset. The hotel is situated in a perfect spot along the beach, close to restaurants and a grocery store. We also enjoyed having breakfast on the balcony overlooking the pool area.

We will definitely return, because this hotel made our vacation so easy, comfortable and relaxing. No negative surprises!

Room Tip: Ask for a room with a view of the beach (full or partial view are both good).
