Now that it is time to start scheduling our winter plans I am compelled to write what I should have in March, 2011. We travel through the Mexico Beach area each year and I have alway admired the Driftwood Inn (by outside appearance). We reserved a two night stay and to make a long story short, bad bed, rumply animal... More

We came down to Mexico Beach to get married. The Driftwood Inn is beautiful. Our stay has been great and everyone is very friendly. We already looking forward to returning next year for our anniversary. I am sure there will be many more return trips in our future.

This Inn is old and worn in places but its very clean, comfortable & has a superb location. If you want a fancy hotel with all the modern cons then this Inn is not for you, but if you want a place to meet friendly people, a place to enjoy the sights and sounds of the beach, this place is... More

I have stayed here before years ago and visited again in June. The garden definitely makes the stay worthwhile; I spent hours sitting in a swing enjoying the sights and sounds of the beach, both day and night! Very relaxing. People were very friendly and we got a kick out of being checked in by Huckleberry, the Great Dane. We... More

This Inn is great! The staff is very welcoming. Our room was Clean, comfortable & Pet Friendly! (A hard combination to find) The bathroom is adequate & we liked that the entire room had tile flooring. This is a cozy little retreat right on a beautiful stretch of beach not a luxury mega resort in a fast-paced city. It's a... More

We thought we would try this place because we were traveling through and it was getting dark and it appeared like somewhere fun to stay. The regular room rate is $140. The place was less than half full @ 9:00pm. I asked for a AARP discount and they said they didn't do discounts. The lady behind the desk couldn't even... More

OK the good part is yes the beach is in the back yard. The unit includes a kitchenette, however the bathroom is so tiny that it gives a new meaning to the word tiny. The beds were ok, not great. The air conditioner unit blew mold chunks on the bed we didnt sleep in. If you have allergies Run don't... More

I stayed at this hotel recently with my wife. The location is great as it is right on the beach. The room was relatively clean. However, the bathroom did not seem very clean and it is tiny. There is no tub and the door hits the commode. Neither my wife not I are very large people. I can't imagine what... More

This is my go-to beach motel. It is beautiful and charming, and right on the beach. The friendly service cannot be beat. (Be sure to say hello to Huck!) The grounds are awesome- lush gardens, little details everywhere you look, patios and swings and porches....it is so romantic. Each of the rooms is outfitted with odds and ends "antiques" creating...
