We really enjoyed our stay at the Southern Oaks Inn. We have a large dog so finding a place to stay in the historic district can be a challenge. From checkin\out, Staff, Room, facility, outside grounds, morning buffet, Large dog park all great. The room had only one thing I would change and that is for a quieter dehumidifier. Room was very clean, Bed comfortable and generally the entire Inn is in very good condition; all well maintained. The Inn is close to the ocean and there is no way to shut off the dehumidifier, so that takes some getting used to in particular for sleep. The room comes with a large doggy bed, 2 collapsible dog bowls and some other bedding that we did not use for our dog. Parking is basically at your room door as this is a motel style Inn. Morning buffet has adequate selections to eat and what I we had was good. We did not use the pool but it looked very nice. The shuttle service is very good taking you to either the Historic downtown or Vilano beach for $10 a day (the shuttle is dog friendly). Would highly recommend with or without a pet.

Location was good. Could walk to a couple eateries. Desk associate Nikki was FANTASTIC! Loved her! Breakfast was very good. Loved the free downtown Shuttle. It is an older hotel but was extremely clean. Most times in older motels windows maybe dirty as well as the window track. My room #275 was super clean!! Our room was in the back so it was quiet. Highly recommend ❤️

The stay was fine. The rate isn’t what is advertised, upfront anyway, you get a $15 a night to park your car in their lot. Never had to pay to park my car at a motel.

Had no idea what to expect…..it’s quite nice.

Old fashioned place that is well run. It definitely not new. People that work there seem to like their jobs, imagine that. Whoever manages this place knows what they are doing. Breakfast was different but really good. We didn’t know what to expect and were more than pleasantly surprised with the entire operation…….
