An older hotel located on the beach with free parking. The rooms are simple but clean with wall mounted air conditioning and a small bathroom. The suite included a kitchen with oven, microwave and full size refrigerator. The staff were pleasant. More

This is sort of a boutique motel right on the beach in Hollywood. It's dated, but clean. Could use new doors/locks on the rooms. Free parking in their own lot. Front desk person was friendly. A little pricey for what you get but then again, it is right on the beach. More

Stayed here for six nights. We were upgraded without asking from a double room to a one bedroom suite that faced the ocean. It was so tranquil here. Could just hear the surf from the window- no traffic sounds at all. Wonderful. Location is terrific- literally an 8 metre walk from our door to the beach sand. Wow! The suite... More

The Driftwood is very simple but clean. We stayed in a studio, facing the Ocean. The room has everything but is small, for us it was perfect. The rooms are very clean, with maid service every day. What is great is that everything in the hotel is very accessible, easy and reasonable. Parking is free and very ample. You can... More

My new wife and I had the best time a couple could ask for without being rich! Great weather, romance, swimming in the surf and snorkeling, a clean pool. All for a reasonable price. Safe free parking, beautiful spot close to all. We can't wait to go back. More

I see negative reviews here and I ask, really? HOW luxurious do you expect a place to be that charges such reasonable rates? I've stayed at the Driftwood for the last 5 years, each time for a weekend trip to Gulfstream. The rooms are very clean, the reception staff tremendously helpful and friendly, and the location- amazing. A beach-front room... More

The manager was very kind and accomodating when we had a traumatic incident regarding our dog who was hospitalized and had 3 surgeries. Driftwood's location in HOLLYWOOD BEACH is an oceanfront lodging with fully equipped kitchen. Staying by the ocean is very therapeutic for us, it help us heal our traumatic experience. More

This is our 3rd year here for family reunion. We just love the set up and the strip of beach here is incredible. We are able to utilize this property for our large 100 + group. The hotel is old and stands among tall condos - holding a sliced of Hollywood history. Not a fancy place but the beach here... More
