This is my 3rd year at the Driftwood. If I could afford it I would LIVE there!!!!!!!!!!!! I've stayed there w/ my friends, as well as my family.

We have been staying at the Driftwood for a long time and stay in the poolside efficiency each year. The room has not been updated in a very long time. The bathroom is in need of a major overhaul, the futon is old and needs replacing, the mattresses in the bedroom are soft and need replacing, the wallpaper is old,... more

My family and I have been coming to the driftwood for 8 years or so. My kids love that the poolside effeciency which we stay in is a step from the pool and ten steps from the beach.

Although the Driftwood Motel is on the ocean side of Ocean Ave., it's a far walk from the boardwalk attractions (we took our car). While the rooms are adequate (clean, new carpet, good mattresses), we did hear people (kids?) running around on the floor above us for a long time late at night. You can really hear every footstep! Also,... more

I went there during Labor Day weekend with a couple of friends. Even though this motel is pretty family oriented, we still had a good time. You are basically on the beach (with a pool), and they have a snack bar with great grilled gleezes, if your tummy is empty. Although there were a lot of families, everyone was slinking... more
