Photos and Description of the Grand Bahama vacation cottage rental 3BR/2.5BA sleeps 8

Diamonds by the Sea is situated on one of the most beautiful white sandy beaches in Freeport. The crystal clear waters are several shades of aqua and turquoise. Days can be spent just relaxing and enjoying the peaceful serenity at Diamonds; And after a day on the beach, where on many occasions you can watch Dolphins swimming not far from the shoreline, a great BBQ on your deck, and a Hammock is just what is needed to wrap up a lovely day in Paradise. A short walk on the beach from us, are several beach bars and restaurants and also available are water sports activities, kayaking, sailing etc. We take pride in being one of the rare vacation cottages with privacy and yet less than 5 miles is Port Lucaya with its activities, Casino, restaurants, bars and shopping. We are also proud of the fact that Diamonds is where Keira Knightley chose to live and enjoy for several months while filming Pirates of the Caribbean II in Grand Bahama.

Beautiful Getaway - Dreaming of returning soon

Gama Mary Ann Naples, Florida
Review Submitted: March 2, 2008 Date of Stay: January 2008
Wonderful facilities - very clean - excellent "land lady" - very accomodating - anything you need she has and will give you. The most relaxing place I have ever been. Discovered a "Costco" ilke store just near the airport - instead of going straight onto Bahama Highway - go to the right (9 o'clock on the round about) and it is one your right. Great place to stock up on food for the cottage. Restaurants in Lucaya are plenty and good - But nothing is quite as wonderful as cooking at "home" and watching the sun go down. We will be back - with grandchildren this time! Thank You - Dreaming of returning soon
Owner's Response: Mary Ann,

Thank you so much and looking forward to your coming again to Diamonds with your grandchildren. You were great guests and it was a pleasure having you.

Come back and visit us very soon,

Best regards,

Gladys

Review Submitted: August 3, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Me, my wife, and our dog - Tina, spent our 25th wedding anniversary in this cottage. It was one of the best vacations that we've ever had. The cottage was clean and beautiful, and the beach was private. The owner (Gladys) is delightful and a very nice person. Restaurants and the casino are just a short drive away. We didn't need to rent a car as we had a wonderful taxi driver named Smitty who took us everywhere at reasonable rates - use him when you go to Diamonds - Gladys has the information.
If you are looking for a relaxing vacation in a private and safe location, look no further. This is the place you want to go to! Hotels are cold and crowded. Having your own home away from home is the way to go.
We will come back here next year and for many years to come. Enjoy your stay as much as we enjoyed ours - I know you will. And Tina loved it also - she recommends it for your pet.

Fantastic time

Beth15 Franklin, MA
Review Submitted: April 24, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2008
We stayed at Key Lime and Lilac for a week with our family. We had a wonderful time, loved the property, very clean. Beautiful beach. We walked the beach, swam, cooked on the grill, had pina coladas in the hot tubs. Gladys was very accommodating and bent over backwards for us. We would definitely go back again.
Grand Bahama Island is a great choice for a family vacation....go to Diamonds by the Sea, any of Gladys's properties!!!!!!!
Owner's Response: Thank you so very much... And to get this review from you now is a real plus.

I am glad you are thinking of us at Diamonds and come again. You were wonderful guests. Would love to have you again.

Warm regards to all,

Gladys

Excellent Rental For Relaxing Vacation

J, M & D NYC
Review Submitted: April 11, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
Beautifully situated at beach. Cottages are clean, well appointed, nicely decorated, comfortable and spacious. There are only a few cottages in the compound, which is well-maintained and adorned with lush plants and flowers, so you feel like you’re away from it all. The ocean breezes are soothing. Gladys is eager to accommodate. She is available when needed, but not intrusive. Children are welcome. Churchill Beach, where Diamonds By the Sea is located, is a short distance from Port Lucaya. We love Grand Bahama Island, particularly the beach at Lucayan National Park, which is also only a short drive from Diamonds by the Sea. We intend to go back to Diamonds by the Sea. Highly recommended.

The most wonderful time

RBrown New York
Review Submitted: January 6, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
I arrived first and could not have been taken better care by Gladys. The most beautiful lady and her friend were wonderful to me. Then slowly, the rest of my family arrived one by one and each day was great. The Keylime cottage was fabulous and everything and more than I expected and I have stayed at really wonderful hotels all over the world.
The location is great with fun places down the beach to eat and drink with the locals. Getting around is so easy with a car and the Bahamian people are just lovely and friendly.
I cannot wait to go back and stay in the Keylime cottage. But all of Gladys' cottages are exquisite.
