If you are planning to stay anytime soon cancel your reservation. There is some seriously noisy utility work going on right in the parking lot, and it doesn't look like it's going to be over soon. My wife and I stayed on May 10, 2008. We booked on Driftwood Shores web page and it said nothing about construction. We were... more

Basic. Very basic. Having stayed in 4 different hotels in 4 nights during our whirlwind scenic driving tour of Oregon, this was our LEAST favorite. This place could learn a thing or two from the Shilo Suites (specifically the one in Bend). Pluses: on the ocean; has full size kitchen; good selection of cable channels. Minuses: the people checking in... more

Elevator access to upper floors, great ocean view, comfortable roomy kitchen w/countertop workspace for crafting or working. Small patio overlooking the ocean. Full sized refrigerator so plenty of space to store food. Restaurant offered excellent friendly service & ocean views but the food was pricey for the quality. Long sandy beaches to walk on, fly kites, etc. Nice pool for... more

I did some research before I booked this hotel, so I knew what to expect. It is an average hotel, but the most unpleasant aspect was that the room cleaner/disinfectant they used smelled like a nursing home! I had to open the slider to let the room air out! The furniture is a little out-dated, but the room is large... more

Having stayed in another motel in Florence last spring which sounded good but turned out to be a dump right on busy Highway 101, I was looking for something better for a return visit (to the nearby Indian casino). Earlier Trip Advisor reviews of Driftwood Shores made me uneasy but it is the ONLY accommodation right on the beach so... more

My husband started visiting here with his family as a child and we have now begun the same tradition with our 6 and 8 year old children. We love it for the location. If your truly here for family time and not just shopping. We stayed on the first floor in a 2 queen kitchen room. Yes it is worn... more

We just returned from three nights at Driftwood Shores. I have never written a review for any of the many places we have vacationed at over the years, and I was hesitant to book at the Driftwood given some of the negative opinions expressed by other reviewers. All I can say is I am glad I didn't listen and wanted... more

I booked this room as a walk in. The front desk was extremely friendly, and even let me check out my room before I accepted (because it was a smoking room). The room itself is average, with a microwave and fridge. My main reason for coming to this hotel is that it is close to the dunes, but also close... more

the driftwood shores in your average oregon coast hotel. no frills. the thing that makes it all worth it is the oceanfront location and ALL rooms have balconies w/ oceanviews! you need to request a room on 2nd floor or above because people in the rooms above the 1st floor feed the seagulls and they swarm around the 1st floor... more
