Our family has started a new tradition of beginning our annual January trip to central Florida with a two-night stay at the Hampton Inn. The hotel is a great place to unwind and relax while taking a break from the fast-paced roller coasters and thrills of Orlando. It's conveniently located on the beach in the quieter Daytona Beach Shores area just south of Daytona Beach and is just minutes from the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse, Speedway, downtown Daytona Beach and the pier.
Rooms are spacious and comfortable which is expected when staying at a Hampton Inn. The pool area overlooks the beach and is well maintained. Parking is ample (and FREE). The staff is very friendly and courteous and more than willing to make local dining recommendations during your visit. If you're in the mood for Italian food, be sure to stop by the Porto-Fino Restaurant across the street from the hotel for delicious pasta dishes and pizza pies. Another local favorite is the Boondocks restaurant a few minutes south in nearby Wilbur by the Sea. Speaking of food, the hotel offers free breakfast each morning consisting of pastries, fruit, eggs and bacon or sausage in addition to freshly baked cookies each evening. The only missing amenity that stands out in my mind is a business center, but the free in-room high-speed wireless internet access makes up for that.
We've been fortunate enough to stay at the Hampton Inn two years in a row now and can't wait for our next visit in January. Hampton advertises its "We love having you here" slogan but, in reality, we love staying here and so will you.
