All of our open Diamond-managed properties around the world will be offering complimentary accommodations to medical personnel and first responders. Like many, we have been looking for ways to help. We realized we are in a unique position to provide accommodations that are particularly well-suited for social distancing. Our suites are larger than typical hotel rooms and the majority include full, in-suite kitchens with refrigerators, ovens and stoves, plus full bathrooms and laundry facilities.

Reservations can be made by calling 1.800.438.2929 or by emailing Groups@diamondresorts.com.

Nice to know some of our excessive maintenance fees are being used for a good cause. However, I wonder how many of their resorts are open.
Ours is closed until further notice in the Outer Banks and if you miss your week, they say “so sorry—not our fault”. I know that is true but they have not indicated that they will try to get you in another week or refund any portion of the maintenance fees.

This is all about publicity.
You are absolutely correct.

Far better for Diamond to have maintained a semblance of normal commercial operations instead of making units available for free to medical personnel and first responders. What were they thinking?

You know they’re going to offer them one of those marketing “deals” so they can get them to an update.

We have reservations in Las Vegas for late May. Hopefully things will be returning to some normalcy.
