About this house rental
The Diamond at the Cottages at Romar
One of our three Jewels by the Sea!
23150 Perdido Beach #8
10BR 9BA Extraordinary, upscale beachfront home. Private & Community Pools. Elevator. Icemakers and fridges, all floors. Wow!
These homes are always full. We own Emerald, Sapphire and Diamond, all right next door to each other. Sapphire and Emerald are the identical 12BRs. More of...more! Get two. 24 bedrooms. Why not?! Diamond (10BR) too. Side x side x side! 34 bedrooms... All 3 were fully booked last summer and all the major holidays almost a year in advance, sometimes two for our repeat guests! Act quick!
Diamond is a 10 bedroom family-friendly luxury beach home located directly on the beach in an exclusive, gated community with zero-entry pools. Handicapped accessible features. Elevators. Firepit. The perfect vacation home for large groups, or small ones that like lots of space!
Diamond will very comfortably sleep 29. No sleeper sofas! And, because this is a big family friendly place, several of these beds are in one room that's perfect for either one big family or for most of the kids! Nestled on the third floor, this large family room has two twins, a futon, and 2 single bunks, sleeping up to 7!

All bunks are twin over twin at Diamond. There are NO sleeper sofas.
POOLS -- Private Deck Pool AND Community Pool
In addition to the zero-entry community pool located right across the drive from the home, the home also has its own private, elevated dipping pool at living room level. Dipping does NOT mean itty bitty. Its a 20x12x3.5' Rectangle. Sit in your living room, watch your kids play in the pool outside, how cool is that!? Or enjoy that beverage overlooking the gulf!
And we added a gas pool heater to the deck pool, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 84 (the high side of recommended rec pool temps) to take the chill off! This service is by request in advance with a per night surcharge for length of stay (gas is expensive right now, this does not actually recoup the cost!). Fee subject to change due to incredibly high gas rates right now. You may add it after booking by simply requesting the pool be heated any time after making the reservation and at least a few days before check in so we can get it on before you arrive. See our FAQ about heatable pools too.
TWO REFRIGERATORS
Two? Yes two. Because you won't want to stay somewhere without an extra fridge once you have had them. And mini-fridges in wet-bar areas on the other floors too! Plus.. 2 dishwashers.
PARKING
You can park 5-6 mid to full size vehicles in front and under the home. In addition, there are multiple overflow parking areas in the Cottages neighborhood, conveniently located nearby, not miles away!
WIFI/INTERNET? YOU BET!
YES! We have an awesome Eero multi-node mesh network fed by fiber optic for up to 1GB speeds (and we typically see 750+ in real world line speed tests at the home) to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home!? That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like? It is generally solid. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests "troubleshooting" it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction!
TWO OTHER COTTAGES RIGHT NEXT DOOR
And if 10 bedrooms is just not quite big enough, check out Emerald or Sapphire, 2 12 bedroom homes right next door, or any of our other wonderful family-owned homes. Emerald and Sapphire are identical 12 BR units, so if you want to sleep up to 88, well, that would do it! Or over 115 in all 3!
PLEASE NOTE that the Cottages at Romar neighborhood association has determined that no weddings or special events may be hosted in the property. This is applicable to our Jewels by the Sea. However, although you cannot host weddings or special events at the Diamond, Emerald, or Sapphire, you certainly can stay there during your trip and enjoy these large homes, their luxury, and the terrific neighborhood amenities.
GRILL
Yes. There is a direct-plumbed gas grill for your use.
SOAPS, PAPER and BEACH TOWELS, COFFEE ETC ETC
As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a "starter supply" of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). All bed linens and bath towels are provided (bath towels, we provide 1.25* the MAX Guests (not however many you reported). That's a lot, like more than 55 for 44 people; however, if you plan to 'pack the house' AND expect to use more than one towel per person, then may want to bring some more. You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Also also... all our homes have both drip coffee makers and Keurigs as well.
You ll love staying at the Sapphire at the Cottages at Romar. You ll wish you never had to go home. If you don t book early, you ll stop by wishing you could be here.
We have a number of smaller places as well, and also bigger: like taking 2 sides of a very nice duplex to get 20 (twenty!) bedrooms.
Ask. We ll help find the perfect place no matter what your vacation hopes, dreams, and desires may be!

We had 19 people ranging from 13-85 staying in the house. It was a great space, plenty of space to spread out, share the deck and get to the beach. Everyone could go their own way, but also plenty of space for game nights, dance parties and family time.
We had 2 minor unavoidable issues that came up - but what made them minor was that the team was super responsive and got things fixed quickly. I was impressed with how responsive the management team was, and they followed up to ensure we were satisfied with the results.
Overall we had a great stay - it was a great house with ample amenities and space. It's clear this house has been kept up well and cleanliness is a focus!
4.9
We had a fantastic time at The Diamond! My family had nothing but amazing things to say about the house. It was so clean, beautiful, and had everything we needed. Ages ranged from 1 to 65, and everyone had a blast. The pool was perfect so the kids could swim, even on the chillier days, while the adults relaxed and watched/listened to the waves. My extended family and my husband, kids, and I come for spring break every year, and I've been coming yearly for over 20 years, and this is by far one of the best houses we have ever had the pleasure of staying in! Thank you for allowing us to spend the week in your Diamond! It truly is a gem!

We had a great time. Everything went great with the house. We had an issue with the elevator when getting settled in, but were able to reset it by flipping the breaker (I followed the steps in the videos on your website). The management company answered when we called about the elevator, but we were able to get it fixed without anyone needing to come out to the house. The house was clean when we arrived.
The house itself was perfect for our group.
Overall, we had a great experience and will certainly look to book one of your houses again in the future.

We had a great time and I really appreciate the communication and professionalism from Bama Beach Houses...

Everyone enjoyed the house

Everything was great! Everyone had a wonderful time - from the ones in the 80's to the children (ages 4-12). It's so perfect for our family because some can't stay out on the beach as long as others, but they can still watch the kids play from the patio. We love the home and the location. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
4.9
Great house in a wonderful location. House and pool were clean. Only downsize would be the need for kitchen tools for larger families. No real large cookie sheets or large skillet pans. Any questions or concerns were answered quickly through the vrbo messages. They were very helpful.

Sorry it took awhile to get back to this. Really busy once back to the real world! Your place was lovely. The house was incredible. Surprisingly sound proof which was great for such a large crowd with children. Great location, the deck and pool were perfect. We really enjoyed the house and all it had to offer. Our weather wasn't stellar while we were there but the house was plenty big and had great areas for everyone to hang out in during the storms. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and I would come back in a heartbeat. I appreciate you letting us stay in your lovely home! Thank you!
4.9
Thanks for reaching out! We still talk about how great that stay was! We plan to get back out there eventually. We have been sharing your information with the neighborhood we moved into as many of them travel a lot, so you may hear from them. Thanks again!

We enjoyed the stay and time with family.

We had a fabulous time and your beach home was a great home for us and the location couldn't be beat. We loved the little community and the community pool was such an added bonus! The elevator came in so handy as we had one who was not able to make it up and down those stairs. All the refrigerators and the ice makers were put to good use! The deck and the pool was such a nice gathering place. We loved it.
4.9
We had a great stay! House was awesome, and we made a lot of great memories! Wifi was fine throughout the week. Only things we noticed beforehand was the ice maker upstairs not working and a couple of lounge chairs at pool had to stay flat. But no worries at all. Great time, great trip, and great house! Thank you for allowing us an opportunity to stay and working with us.

We had a wonderful stay at your beautiful home. It fit the needs of our family perfectly. We arrived just in time to experience the tropical storm which was very exciting to see. The incredible waves and the view of the beach was amazing. When the weather improved we were blessed with two absolutely perfect days. One day we made camp on the beach for everyone including my 80 year old mother in law. The other we chartered a boat and caught (our limit) 22 red snapper in less than 30 minutes. Only three of us had ever been deep sea fishing before. It was a great evening trip on the boat and we ate some of the delicious catch the day after we got home. May be more info than you wanted. Now to answer your question...they did come by on Monday and remove enough trash for us to have one bin which was fine because trash days are Tuesday and Friday. They also came and cleaned the inside of the grill which the last guest had left a Mess with fish skin all over it. I know that it is a very nice grill and would not like MINE to be in that condition. My friends who came with us have rented other places in the florabama area before.They were so impressed with your place they have already talked to there familymembers about renting your home next time they come down that way. Bottom line our stay definitely met and exceeded our expectations. Thanks for having us there.
4.9
We have enjoyed our stay - you have a beautiful home. My husband & I live on St. John in the US Virgin Islands and are VERY familiar with villa rental and how hard it is to keep everything working. We received the needed items immediately and appreciate the quick response. Your kitchen is fantastic. We prepared all of our meals including Thanksgiving. When using the oven, we discovered that it wouldn't hold temperature. Upon investigation, the oven door does not seal at the top. It definitely needs adjusting. This made the knobs extremely hot to the touch and foods do not cook properly. We got creative & propped a mop handle against the oven door handle to hold it closed. .... lol & everything came out perfect! We made some great memories with Mom and appreciate the use of your home.
4.9
We have stayed at a lot of the owners homes and they are all great. But... Diamond... wow! Its at the high end of the size, features and price, but we took advantage of a last minute opening and snagged Labor Day for what we normally pay for the others. We are spoiled now!
4.9
We stayed at the Diamond last year. LOVED it!!! Next year, God willing, we'll have the whole family with us!!! It will be here before we know it!
4.9
We stay in the Diamond every year and have been for many years! The house is amazing and also very accommodating for large families! We love the gated community and feel safe. The stores across the street make for easy access to groceries and extras! Will continue to come for many years!!!

We will be back

Working with BBH has been fantastic and incredibly easy. My family had such a great time staying in the Diamond, we booked again for next year and look forward to keep our family beach trip tradition alive with Bama Beach houses. Rick and his team have been extremely friendly and just a pleasure to work with.

We loved the house, very spacious for large crowds. Great lay out. Well equipped with things needed for cooking and grilling.
Everyone had a great time.
Especially loved being beach front. You can walk on the beach or just sit back on the balcony and relax.

This property is perfect for large groups! Everyone had a wonderful time! The ice makers everywhere are so convenient, pool is the perfect size, the view cannot be beat! They have 2 of everything and there’s plenty of room to spread out if needed! We will be back! A+

Overall we had a wonderful time. The house is very large and spacious. A/C works very well. Kitchen is a great layout to hangout and cook together. Great ice machine in the kitchen. The other two ice machines weren't working but the one machine worked just fine for us. Two refrigerators in the kitchen and another on the entry floor so plenty of space for food and drinks. The bedrooms were all great and quiet. There are lots of covered parking spots. And it's a really nice gated community with a big community pool. The private deck pool is actually bigger than it looks in the pictures which was a nice surprise. Shallow but great pool to hangout. There were a lot of jellyfish in the ocean during our stay. We still swam in the ocean but a few of us got stung. Beach is stunning and everyone keeps it clean which is nice. And respects the wildlife with muted lights at night. A bunch of us got massages at Wolf Bay and she was awesome and only 15 min away. We would absolutely rent this house again. Thanks for a wonderful and relaxing vacation.
