ONE night in Daytona Beach - The DIS Discussion Forums

MaryAnnDVC · 07-23-2009, 11:31 AM

I have a choice of two hotels...Hilton Daytona Beach Oceanfront Resort on N Atlantic Ave and The Shores Resort and Spa on S Atlantic Ave. DD(21) and I will be there for about 24 hours (including sleeping) and were wondering if one or the other is in a better area for just walking around and doing "stuff" (like shopping?

).

This is a somewhat short notice trip...very unplanned. Both hotels look nice, but on such a limited amount of time, I'm more interested in the surrounding area. We'll have a rental car, but I'd rather just be out and about enjoying the area.

TIA

The Hilton for location since its just one night. If you were staying longer I would have picked The Shores Resort and Spa.

The Hilton is right next to Ocean Village.

I love Daytona my grandparents used to live there. Have a fun one night!

We spent one night in Daytona before heading to WDW last year and stayed at the Hilton. I would definitely recommend it! You really can't beat the location, especially for a one night stay.

Thanks! Ocean Village is exactly the type of thing I was hoping for!
