Not as Described

Pictures don't really show what's it's like. Dirty and old. The front door was probably locked in at some point, very "interesting" door jamb repair, old worn out shower, broken floor tiles, tre was hair on the sheets/pillows. Stay here if you're into that grungy vibe.

Never ever have I checked in a hotel, and had to spend the next hour trying to find another place to stay! I was only staying for one night, and I refused to stay. Everything looked so run down and I thought I would have to sleep in my clothes if I stayed. Thankfully they made it easy to leave, and provided a refund promptly

We had a really nice ocean view balcony. Door didnt work when we tried to enter, had to get maintenance to fix. Was still hard to get into room on occasion. Maid couldn't open room so only got to exchange towels & get trash out when we caught up with maid. Last night there had really loud, foul mouthed neighbors. We ended up leaving around 11p.m. after front desk was notified & didnt appear to be doing anything about the noise.So we basically paid for the last night for nothing.

A wonderful stay!

My husband and I took a trip to Daytona Beach for our honeymoon. Our stay was excellent at El Caribe Resort and Conference Center. The only thing we wish would have been different is that we would have been notified that there was no beach access from the property due to the hurricane prior to our trip. We weren't told under we arrived, the lady at the front desk told us it was only a 2 min walk to the public beach access but that had been washed out by the hurricane too so we had to drive and park in paid parking to access the beach. Housekeeping was great, they gave us clean towels, blankets, and removed trash each day except for the last but I believe our room had not purposely been skipped, they were more than willing to give us towels when we went and asked that night after returning back late. We had a great time and I would return back to their facility again!

The bathroom was not clean however, in all fairness, we did not report this to the front desk since we got in late. The property was under construction as far as the beach access. The beds were comfortable, but the atmosphere was very worn in need of an update.

Lots of sketchy characters all around and staying at the property. None of them bothered us, but we definitely only went outside in pairs. Aside from that, the breakfast was....not. At least, I wouldn't call it that. However, for the price the beds were clean and the balcony was nice.

Everything Was Excellent Until

Let's start from the beginning. Easy friendly check-in. Nice clean room. Everything was going perfect until guests checked in late at night when we were already in bed. Very loud and I thought they came into our room by accident because the noise sounded so close, but they were next door. No consideration for other guests, They talked on speaker phone for most of the night and used the microwave all night long. Thought they were never going to sleep. My kids complained they couldn't sleep and neither could I. So this hotel have paper thin walls obviously. Knowing that they could of spaced out the rooms. Anyways somehow still managed to make it for breakfast which was great. Bagels you can toast with cream cheese or butter. Coffee cereal milk yogurt and pastries. My son said he would give them 5 stars because we weren't locked out of the room lol.
