I'm not sure why this is so highly rated. Yes, it's clean and the staff is friendly. But that's about it. I live in Tallahassee and take the two hour drive to PCB often for a weekend getaway. I've stayed at allot of places. There is nothing wrong w/ the Driftwood, but the parking is scary of you have little... More

Definately will be staying here again, no doubts about it. Location is so convenient that we could walk to pier park. Rooms were very clean and had a beautiful view. Everyone on the staff that we ran into were super nice and helpful. Like how you also have access to the Osprey's pool and hot tub as well as the... More

I have been traveling to Gilmore Resorts since 1980. First with Porters Court, then the Impala and have now made my way to Driftwood for the 4th year in a row and i must continue to say. Not a lot of foo-foo stuff at this hotel, but if you like clean rooms, excellent staff and a warm family friendly atmosphere... More

Love where the Driftwood is located but let's be serious here, it is not a Ritz Carlton. Extremely outdated, think 1985. But clean! Spacious rooms. Do NOT ask for a room on the beach, they are damp and tiny and not worth it. We stayed one night on a beach level room, beautiful view but yucky rooms. Floor felt dirty... More

I grew up staying at this hotel during spring break and summer time. As a child and teenager, it was just what we wanted. Now that I have a family of my own, it's a little sub-par for our taste. The high rise condos next door and on the strip tend to cater more towards the spring breakers and college... More

We stayed at here for 3 nights - GREAT location. We walked to Pier Park everyday! The rooms are clean and very roomy! However, the bathroom is very small and does not have a vanity to sit anything. The parking is very minimal and tight - we were in a SUV and depending on the space - stuck out in... More

My husband and I stay at Driftwood Lodge 3 or 4 times a year. We go off-season when the weather is still warm but crowds are down. It has a home away from home feel. We love being able to walk to the pier and Pier Park without getting in a car to fight traffic. More

this was the 2nd time we spent a week there, and as always we love it. If you like a smaller, family owned atmosphere, kind of place this is it! We will be back again next year!. We are so glad our friends who have been going there for 20 years turned us on to it! More

We stayed for Thanksgiving and it was great! The room was clean with a kithenette, the pool was heated and the views were great. Everyone seemed to be like us, families just getting away for the holiday weekend. We will be back More
