I have had the worst most violating experience with this hotel. They gave my personal information from my check-in and name, address, phone and credit card info to a friend of the hotel employees. Do not go. they will violate your privacy. Ruined my vacation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! More

We stayed here for a month in July and they were not crowded (off season) with the exception of a couple weekends. Location - Awesome with everything one could want right there. Beach across the street, shopping (Publix, Liquor store, strip mall) one block inland, Restaurants, the Pier, Scuba shop, tourist shopping all within easy walking distance around Commercial. We...

This facility is right accross the quiet street of El Mar...so much quieter than the places on A1-A. We could sit on the front porch in afternoon with beautiful view of palm trees and ocean. The staff is attentive. We had reasonable rates for full one bedroom apartment, with full kitchen, living room, and king bedroom . Maid service daily.... More

This place is very dated. The furniture is gross and in bad shape. The mattresses were atrocious. We booked a one bedroom apartment and arrived to find one king bed, one twin daybed, and one fold-out couch bed. They all smelled bad, just like the entire unit. The day bed was so worn that it slanted to the side and... More

My wife, son , and I scored some nine dollar flights on Spirit Airlines out of Atlantic City, NJ to Fort Lauderdale. It then became my task to find a location that we would like to stay at. I have a serious aversion to high rise hotels and condos located right on the beach, so I knew we would not... More

First of all, we are not people who go looking for 4 star resorts at the beach. I looked at several hotels for my south Florida vacation and we finally settled on Dee Jay's. We are very satisfied with our decision! It's not a 4 star resort. It's old. It could probably use some remodeling. It's exactly what I expect... More

Dee Jay's is not for those seeking luxury accomodations. It's for those looking for a clean place to sleep while enjoying the beach. For a family with teenagers, it's perfect. 1 bdrm apartment had a sleeper sofa and twin daybead. Full kitchen and seperate bedroom. This motel is across the street from the beach on a quiet street. We walked... More
