“Location, location, location!!”

Reviewed 2 December 2012

Only a 1 minute walk to the beach and village. Short ride to Ft. Lauderdale if you want more action. They have a nice hot tub that I used often, as it was a bit cooler than normal. The pool is also heated, so that helped too. I didn't find the staff freindly at all, probably because we weren't the... More

“Lazy Days...good buy”

Reviewed 19 November 2012

We loved the laid back atmosphere. There was a friendly staff, nice pool, cabana by the beach with free lounge chairs. Nice beach and close to everything. Not a lot of money for a lovely stay. Book it.

“THE HIDDEN GEM OF FORT LAUDERDALE”

Reviewed 6 November 2012

We've just returned from yet another fab holiday at Driftwood. We took our friends with us this year and they loved it. It's clean, safe and close to everything. Ellen and the team make you welcome, and keep the resort in tip top condition. It's a paradise for the kids, the only pool in fort lauderdale with a diving board.... More

“Nothing to write home about.”

Reviewed 16 September 2012

Location is good right next to restaurants and Walgreens in Lauderdale by the Sea. People were nice. Alot of old people drinking beer, a few younger partiers, and a busload of kids in the pool screaming. It is true people did try to be nice. The accomodations were lacking of comfort, especially the bed, but the 1 bedroom unit was... More

“Very Pleased With Our Stay”

I was a little skeptical when we pulled up to the building as we usually vacation at a resort style time share. However when we checked in, the staff was very nice and our room was wonderful and very clean. A tiny bit outdated but no problems at all. I loved the pool area, and the beach access and lounge...

We stayed at The Driftwood for the first time May 12-19. We LOVED it! We arrived 3 hours early, but our room was ready so they graciously allowed us to check in early. The way it's built (a 2 story horseshoe shape around the pool area) you see everybody that's there. It was such a "family atmosphere" people just left... More
