Vibrant Daytona oceanfront resort offers sun, sand and entertainment
Beach-lovers flock to this lively resort a few miles north of the Daytona strip. This is a quieter part of the beach, but no less vibrant when the live entertainment kicks up poolside. The beach here is wide and stretches for miles in both directions, perfect for walking and biking. The Caribbean-themed rooms have balconies with ocean views. La Playa Resort is within walking distance to restaurants and shops, and a short drive to the speedway and several golf courses.
Highlights
- Oceanfront pool and lounge and kiddie pool
- Lounge with comedy club
- Golfers are a short drive to LPGA International Golf Course
Rooms
The 238 stylishly decorated rooms at La Playa Resort have a distinctive Caribbean feel, with colorful fabrics and wood furniture. The rooms are housed within an eight-story structure and all come with private balconies and ocean views. Other amenities include kitchenettes, premium cable television, microwaves, refrigerators, coffee makers with gourmet coffee and tea.
Features
La Playa Resort is situated on a magnificent section of a wide 23-mile beach. The hard-packed sand and refreshing surf attract sunbathers, swimmers, surfers and bike riders. Motorized water sports such as jet-skiing and parasailing are available nearby. The Ocean Waters Spa offers a variety of European Spa treatments overlooking the ocean.
The oceanfront pool deck is a perfect respite from the salt water and sand. The poolside Tiki Bar serves lunch and drinks, and live entertainment performs poolside on weekends. The resort is convenient to numerous restaurants and shops, including a large shopping center across the street. The Penthouse Lounge in the resort is home to Bonkerz Comedy Club. Plan a day trip to Kennedy Space Center, Disney theme parks and Universal Studios.

Sping Break 2011
When we checked in, we were unaware of the charge for being under 26 years old that we each had to pay. We rented a room that was supposed to be an ocean view room, but were put on the side of the building and our view was part of the ocean, but mostly looking at the city. The rooms are a little outdated, but we booked so far in advance that it was decent for the price.

If you are on a trip to go a lot of things outside of hotel, then you should have a car with you. Cabs were pricey.

Had a great stay at the La Playa. Loved the pool and bar specials, perfect for spring break trip. Room wasn't super new, but fairly clean. Some of the front desk staff was not very welcoming upon arrival, however made up for it when finding a roommate's lost sunglasses.

A few things to know...
Half of Ocean View rooms are on side of hotel. Technically, you have a porch and can see the ocean. Accommodations are a bit "weathered", but functional, except our broken door chain with multiple holes and screws sliding out and the bad ballast in the bathroom sink light - don't expect luxury and customer service, but they do have speed channel. Rooms are efficiencies, which I found means they don't have to clean your coffee maker or give you coffee for it - they will provide if you ask, but don't ask them to bring to your room, as they will say they are short staffed, so you have to come and get it. And, if you don't wash the coffeemaker and cups...$20. They will charge for using safe and parking.

Great vacation, not so great room!
We came to Daytona beach for the Nationwide race and we chose to stay at La Playa. We had stayed there last year and had a really bad room and said something about it and got a different room. This year we walked into our room and a big crawled across my bed, then one crawled up the wall, and then there was another one in the refrigerator. We immediately got out of the room and asked for another one. The staff was very nice and helpful, along with understanding. We got an upgrade to a different room that was cleaner but not as clean as we would like.

Very accomodating!
My daughter had a cheerleading competition. This is a very convenient location on the beach. Drug store, grocery store and shopping center right across the street, along with a variety of places to eat! The staff was very nice. Since it was cold outside, the indoor pool came in very handy for the kids and actually convinced us to stay another day, unexpectingly.
