I loved the whole retro vibe. It’s a renovated 1961 MOTEL, which means the rooms are not big. They’re small, but they’re clean and have what you need. There’s a community kitchen with 24 access to guest, stocked with free drinks, snacks, coffee, etc. All of the 60’s touches is so cute and you can hang in the salt pool listening to a little Sonny and Cher or CCR. The pool was beautiful and sparkling blue. We will definitely be going back.

Just an FYI, mattress are very firm. The hotel is very nostalgic and well kept. The attention to all of the small details (right down to the small fan in each room) is what set this hotel apart from others we have stayed in. This hotel really focuses on the guest having a great experience and it shows! We will definitely be returning!

Title: A Charming Stay at Driftwood Motel I recently had the pleasure of staying at Driftwood Motel, and I must say, it was a delightful experience! The accommodations are truly inviting, featuring a beautifully renovated retro style that adds a unique charm to the place. The attention to detail in the decor creates a warm and nostalgic atmosphere that made my stay feel extra special. One of the highlights of my stay was the excellent complimentary breakfast. There was a great variety of options, and everything was fresh and delicious. It was the perfect way to start each day of my visit. My only complaint would be the pillows. While everything else was fantastic, I found the pillows a bit lacking in comfort. A little upgrade in that department would make the experience even better. Overall, I highly recommend Driftwood Motel for anyone looking for a cozy and charming place to stay. I look forward to returning!
