My wife and I stayed at the Diamond Head resort June 14-21. We were both extremely pleased with the entire experience. The rooms are spacious and clean. The kitchenette is really handy. I fell asleep on the screened-in patio 4 nights just listening to the small waves on the beach.
The hotel is within walking distance to shopping and restaurants. I would guess about 1/2 mile to the pier.
We can't wait to go back!!!

stayed at daimond head ft. myers68-6-12-2008. read many reviews first. Let me tell you the rooms are very nice not 5star but very comfortable. the balconies are in living area and bedroom. you can lay in bed and see the ocean. the hotel and restaurant staff are Very nice. the beach and the water are very clean. you can go way out into the water . no waves. the main restaurant very expensive. the trolley can take you up and down main road. If you want to sight see you either need a car or make arrangements throuth the concerge. If you want to relax lay on the beach and have a good meal it is the place to be.

My fiancee and I came to Florida to plan our destination wedding. We stayed at another hotel to try and get some other options. On our arrivial to a different hotel, we were horrified. We immediately contacted the DiamondHead to see if there were any rooms available. The staff there at the DiamondHead bent over backwards to make sure that our stay was incredible. They were all friendly and even took the time to learn our names. We originally were planning on a different hotel after the first night, however we decided to stay the entire vacation. By the time we left, most everyone at the resort knew our name. They made our vacation/wedding planning/and my fiancee's birthday the best trip it could have been. I would definitely recommend staying at this hotel.

Here for 5 nights for our first ever sister getaway. Staff very friendly and helpful - early checkin allowed. Our corner room on the 9th floor was oceanfront - awesome views. Good food in hotel. Only drawback was sofa bed was very uncomfortable. Excellent restaurant recommendations! Will be back. Resort employees very appreciative of our patronage.
