"Upon arrival, we were left a little unsure about our choice - but after settling in, we knew right away this was the right place for us. The room was very simple - but we weren't here for the room . . . we were here for the beach and all the other amenities this property had to offer - and it delivered fantastically! We made many great friends of the staff - and cannot wait to return again someday soon. "

"Nice updated property with everything you need. Complex is very good and staff excellent. Hairline beach pass was a bonus."

"What a beautiful location. We had a really nice, large, beachfront room, with nice large bathroom. Room us as advertised and we did lay out on the balcony in the sun as the waves rolled in. The beach is wonderful. Crystal clear warm water that has a nice shallow part, sandy beach that was easy to walk on. I loved that getting a beach chair and umbrella were always easy no matter the time of day. The staff were all so friendly! Tge grounds were so well maintained! We started each day with the nice fresh breakfast, which was included, and were always given a nice table overlooking the water. Picture perfect! "

"I don’t know where to start with this property. It is absolutely beautiful, I actually don’t think the pictures do it justice. It immediately felt like home, it had everything we could possibly need. Communication from Michael and Jules was wonderful, they were very attentive and made sure that they were able to meet our individual needs. We travelled with a 8 month old and they ensured that we had a suitable cot for her. In addition, we were unaware that it was a bank holiday the day after we arrived, which meant we’d be unable to buy food from the supermarket, so the hosts arranged for essential food items to be waiting for us on arrival. I can’t begin to express how grateful we were for this. Both the house manager and housekeepers were just as lovely and attentive, everyone we came into contact with with regards to this booking was absolutely wonderful. The location of the villa is so close to bars, restaurants and shops and was just perfect for us. We would absolutely stay here again and I’m just sad our trip wasn’t longer."

"Another stay at the beautiful diamond oasis...we stayed 3 weeks this time.We are in our late 60s and it suits us perfectly, very peaceful quiet area. Beautiful garden with a very well kept pool, best sunloungers nice and strong and a gazebo to sit in if you wanted some shade. The apartment had everything we needed., the bed was nice and comfortable. Barbara our host is such a lovely lady and always at hand if you need to know something. We always hire a car to get around to visit beaches and places of interest. Holetown is a great place to stay at as there is so many places to eat and see there and you can easily travel to the north or south of the island. I wouldn't hesitate to stay at diamond oasis again such a lovely welcome by Barbara. Certainly going to miss you and the tranquility of the area. Honestly a wonderful place to stay its just up the road from limegrove..so easy to find. Book it and you wont be disappointed."

"This is not our first time in this property or in Barbados. The island is always welcoming. The property is actually better this time around. The staff is amazing. We will be back."

"Everything was beautiful! Guest service was on point... "

"Since this is the last month of operation for the hotel before it closes for a year long renovation project we were blessed with a lot of peace and quiet. The staff, despite their pending furlough, was attentive and caring. Looking forward to the reopening in 2025. It’s a great beach location "

"Lovely location right on the beach "
