I've gone here for the past 2 winters (07 and 08) and will be going again in a few weeks. You'll never mistake it for a Hilton, but hey, it's $45/night in February and from your bed you can watch the sun rise over the ocean each morning. Plus the traffic is much better here than down in Daytona proper, so it's a bit quieter ...

Money's Worth
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/27/08
This was my second time to stay at the Driftwood. My first visit was in 2004 and the motel seemed to have been very neglected since then. The grounds did not seem as well-kept nor did the rooms. I had returned because of the cleanliness and quaintness along with the feel of "old" Florida. The pool area was also lacking in being as ...

Do not stay here!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/01/07
We were so excited to stay right on the beach, but we were so disappointed when we arrived! We had booked a room with two double beds, but when we got there we were told they only had a double with a twin available, and they didn't even offer a discount on the price for this. When we walked into the room, we knew there was no possible way we ...

Oceanview, Poolside, Private Balcany
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/20/06
Lovely and well-maintained 1950's tile in bath, in-room refrigerator, walk-out to a great super-clean pool, patio-yard and beach. This hotel has attractive foliage in the front and oceanside/poolside appeal in the back. Rooms are clean and comfortable, tend to smell a bit musty, but not smokey. Continential breakfast next door is not worth the ...

Very old!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/20/06
This was my 1 year old son's first vacation to florida. We were so excited to go to the beach but when we arrived we were soooooo disappointed! The pictures that they use on their website are very decieving! The rooms are very old, the bed was HARD, the bathroom was more like a small closet with a stand up shower, not even a bathtub. We also ...

Happy repeat customer
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/21/05
We've been coming to this motel for years, and have never had a bad experience - even right in the aftermath of last year's hurricanes. The staff has always been friendly and accommodating, and you can't beat the location or value. It's an older building, but they go to some lengths to keep it nice and upgrade regularly. They used ...
This is an great place to stay for the money. A very friendly staff made us feel welcome! Also appeared to be American owned! I will be back soon!

we stayed at this wonderful motel for 3 days and loved it. tropical flowers out front, grassy yard in back, plus a solar heated pool, and the beach right there. the staff folks were so friendly. it was like taking a tranquilizer every day, just being there. we loved it.
