Best kept secret!

Our stay at Driftwood was amazing. The hosts, Dan and Sheena, go out of their way to make sure their guests are happy. We loved the totally remodeled retro motel with a beautiful salt water pool. Plenty to see and do in Bay Saint Louis, MS

ACCOMMODATIONS WERE FINE AND VERY CLEAN; THE ONLY “GLITCH” WAS THAT THE SMOKE ALARM WENT OFF IN THE ROOM DURING THE NIGHT WHILE ASLEEP. ALL SEEMED OK AND NO MORE ISSUES.

The property and room appear recently remodeled and extremely clean. The room was basic but stylish and comfortable. We didn't use the pool but alot of kids seemed to be enjoying themselves. There is a nice little area outside the office with tables and chairs and a outdoor tv. One weird note, the doors have digital locks and do not automatically lock when you shut the door. We were in bed and a woman walked into our room thinking it was her room. I obviously thought the door was locked.

The place was nice but doing everything including checking in online was a little strange. The room was nice and clean but not having a coffee pot in the room was a negative.

I loved the whole retro vibe. It’s a renovated 1961 MOTEL, which means the rooms are not big. They’re small, but they’re clean and have what you need. There’s a community kitchen with 24 access to guest, stocked with free drinks, snacks, coffee, etc. All of the 60’s touches is so cute and you can hang in the salt pool listening to a little Sonny and Cher or CCR. The pool was beautiful and sparkling blue. We will definitely be going back.

Just an FYI, mattress are very firm. The hotel is very nostalgic and well kept. The attention to all of the small details (right down to the small fan in each room) is what set this hotel apart from others we have stayed in. This hotel really focuses on the guest having a great experience and it shows! We will definitely be returning!
