Drifted into the Driftwood one night.

Quaint older setting with small rooms had nice view of ocean from third floor. A b&g that was a little pricey but the food I had was good. Service was fine.

The Driftwood Resort is an absolute gem. The property is beautiful and the staff is excellent. The gentleman that checked us in couldn’t have been nicer. All of the staff and the restaurant onsite were outstanding as well. What a great vacationing place.

Always a pleasurable stay.

I have stayed here many times. Love that there is beach access, even though it was too cold to go in the water. Always a wonderful view of the ocean, even if it’s a cloudy day or perhaps a bit light rainy. Motel can’t change the weather.

Extremely dated but in a fun and kitschy way. Staff was incredibly laid back and kind. Very much an old beach resort vibe.

i didn't know what to expect when we arrived but once we entered the room we were surprised at how nice it was in the room and around the property. They have two pools - one by the restaurant and one for families that want quiet time.
