It has a great view of the ocean, definitely can see the potential in the hotel. The hotel needs a lot of maintenence and cleaning. The pool and outdoor sitting area was clean and nice. There is additional parking on the other side. Very close to restaurants and shops. The hotel next door is unfortunately falling apart and leaves some debris on the beach in front of this hotel. My room leaked when it rained

It is an older hotel that could use some upgrades. We were looking for a less expensive room with an ocean view, and it fit our needs. We had a beautiful ocean view.

nice view

Beautiful view and pool right on the beach. There was thin could hear other guest and the door separating rooms was literally held by a nail. It was a beautiful sunrise in the mornings and overall we only used it to sleep in so for that functionality it was perfect.

Please don't spend your money here

Cons: The room needs many repairs, it smells too strong of humidity, and the night stands had liquid stains on them, the floor felt sticky, the showerhead was covered in green mold, the pull-out bed was rusty, the mattress was stained and it wasn't made properly. Pros: It's in front of the beach and the outside pool and back common areas looked OK. Front desk personnel was courteous. I couldn't get a refund but the conditions were so bad I left, lost the money, and booked another hotel.

This place was absolutely horrible. Dead roaches on the floor, Sheets had dog hair all over them and other dirt marks like urine, blood . Pleather daybed ripped up with dirt, crumbs and ugh just horrible stuff all in the rips on it. The smell almost knocked me over. The windows looked like they were never ever cleaned. The bathroom toilet shower and floors were not cleaned. The floors throughout were pretty disgusting. I went back to the office to tell them I could not stay there. The woman in the office told me she was emailing Expedia to give me a full refund. Still waiting for that refund. I was lucky enough to be able to book another hotel.

Property was in need of repairs and clean up. Stayed for three nights and there were no attempts at Maid Service during the entire stay. Weekend parking was non-existent. Pool as well as room were dirty upon arrival and remained the same. No attempts were made to clean the room or poo bedding appeared to be Queen or King Size for the double beds. Would not recommend this property.

I will never have enough words to say how pleased I am with this motel. Driftwood has such pleasant and helpful people who work hard there. Both rooms (2 different times I’ve been there) were super clean, ice cold AC and mini-fridge, nice shower stalls with great water pressure coming from the overhead faucet. It’s right across the street from a mini golf and there are a couple local restaurants down the street in either direction. For me, I’d rather save money and bring food to grill ( 2 outdoor grills - the type like at campgrounds) or make sandwiches. The pool is super clean and fun to laze around in. Plenty of loungers and other chairs. Two stairways down to the beach (where dogs are allowed!). Oh, I also love how there isn’t carpeting! There’s a lot of sand that clings and comes back into the room with you. There’s usually a couple of brooms somewhere in case you want to sweep away some of the sand out. They don’t come in and make your bed, which, I totally appreciate the privacy. Every morning you can put out your dirty towels and garbage, later, they’ll bring more towels, garbage liners & toilet paper. I cannot enunciate how clean the rooms are and as well as the pool. If you’re looking for easy access to the beach, a warm & welcoming place that’s CLEAN… this is your place!!

This was the second time I stayed at Driftwood. This time I brought my husband and we stayed in a “King” ocean view room (C115) The bed was the perfect softness!! In the double ocean view (A102) the beds were firm. Nothing wrong with that, just not my thing. I came back because EVERYONE there was so friendly and very helpful. The rooms are very clean and you certainly cannot beat the great beach access (right onto the beach where puppy dogs are allowed). The pool they have there is clean and fun. There’s two small bbq grills (if you elect to go w/o a kitchenette), plenty of picnic tables and lounge chairs/chairs. Yes, the building is older and parking is interesting (at times), however, just the fact that it’s CLEAN and everyone is beyond friendly and helpful; that’s way up there in my book. I will continue to go back to Driftwood when I can. Plus, my Shih Tzus can come along with a lower pet fee policy.
