We had an amazing stay at the Driftwood Inn Lodge. Friendly, helpful staff offered a free room upgrade when we arrived to help celebrate a special occasion. Homer is an awesome place and the Driftwood is where I’ll stay every time from now on!
The bed and room were very comfortable. This is right across the street from a nice steakhouse and a very cute coffee/ breakfast creperie. The Driftwood had lots of character. It was not at all what I expected but sometimes good things are like that. The people were so nice and helpful! They booked dinner reservations for me and a bird/ boating tour in Halibut Cove. I’d stay here again.
Look at fine print. They have rooms with shared bathrooms. Didnt see this when booking. And the pictures on their page are not accurate to the room you get. But the staff was very pleasant.
Lots of unique and nice touches in the room and around the property. Superb and kind staff. Felt more like home than most hotels — in a good way. Memorable and enjoyable stay.
I have stayed in Homer many times and somehow missed this gem. The staff were helpful. The property has beautiful views right off the beach. The room was comfortable and there were multiple dining options nearby. We’ll be staying here on our next trip.
Enjoyed the character of the hotel, though not offering the largest of rooms, everything was clean, lobby was quaint. Bathrooms shared but clean. Pleasant staff.
The device to regulate the temperature was not working. Fourniture very old. Difficult to close and open the door. Personnel do not pay attention to customers. Not good informations where to have breakfast. Without shampoo in the shouver. We discovered only at check in that there was no private restroom and we payed 60$ more to have it.
We visited Homer in August of 2022. Driftwood was cozy and home-like. It seems to be family run. Homer is gorgeous. If you go there, the Driftwood Inn is a good choice.
Hotel room with a wonderful EARTHQUAKE experience!
Experienced a 7.1 magnitude EARTHQUAKE that lasted a whole minute! Everything in the hotel room was rocking and rolling. Very exciting, and the building was without damage. Highlight of my stay, plus the staff was very very friendly.
It is what it is. An old building with small rooms, narrow stairway, shared bathroom. There is nothing to complain about, we enjoyed the one night we spent and are grateful they had a vacancy. Its just not a 5 star facility, but plenty good for the price.
