The room was spacious and clean, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful, the balcony view of the ocean was great. My family loves our stay here and will definitely be back. I should add we are a family of 5 and the room we had was considered a handicap room, thus most likely why it was so spacious. I highly recommend this place.

This property far exceeded our expectations! We absolutely loved it! Such a beautiful beach and loved the surrounding area - our only issue was that we just had 1 night to spend. Hope to be back someday with more time to relax, explore and enjoy!

The front staff was amazing! From arriving early and being able to check in right away was just the cherry on top after a lengthy drive. After the first night of freezing in the room, I was able to run downstairs and Tristan (GM) hooked me up with allll the blankets AND towels since housekeeping was a bit confusing. We loved having the perfect ocean view. I watched the sun rise every morning there. Direct beach access is a dream when all you want is to park and not leave - Driftwood met that expectation! Everything was clean. The elevator was fast (IYKYK). Loved having access to a huge ice machine, cheap laundry services and the cutest gift shop. We didn’t get a chance to just sit and swing on the porch but it was adorable. They have a nice shower off post beach right before the ramp which made going to the rooms nice, clean and easy. We ate at Shipwreck (recommended by one of the front desk ladies) and it was good. Lots of little shops around. I’m already planning my next trip but this time with a stove. IF I had to make any con it would be that if you were on the end or next to an end room your balconies are not as private - you’ll be able to say hi to your neighbor. Overall, 10/10. Highly recommended!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
