For our family vacation in June 2008 I booked 3 units for 5 days. I checked online before calling to make reservations and didn't find any problems. I could tell it was an older motel but the outside looked well kept.. The reality was a shock. The rooms all need to be remodeled. It was not only old but dirty.... more

I booked a room for 3 days for the July 4th weekend. I only wanted two but they insisted on a 3 day booking for the holiday weekend. The room smelled like a smoky barroom. It was almost nauseating to a non smoker. The bed was of the lowest possible quality with a distinct sag in the middle. I would... more

This place was filthy. While visiting my parents, who live in Florida, I booked two nights for myself, my two young children and my parents. An "older" place on the beach doesn't bother me a bit....but a filthy one is another story. The bedding was not clean. The toilet leaked from the base and had not been cleaned (in and... more

This is a great motel for a family looking for a quick getaway. The people were extremely friendly and welcoming (for the family style traveler-not the loner), the beach was awesome, the price was fantastic and the beach was away from it all (but yet still just a few miles away...from it all). It had an awesome room set-up. The... more

We stayed at the South Beach Inn another time, about 3 years ago, and found it much to our liking. It was certainly not as described by some recent ratings indicate. We liked the atmosphere, right on the beach, accommodating managers, clean rooms, met other guests we enjoyed talking to, etc. This visit was no different except they also sponsored... more

South Beach Inn really wasn't what I expected for what we had to pay. The air conditioner was noisy and leaked water, it never got repaired while we were there. The rooms weren't really all that clean, the toilet was dirty and the furniture could have used a good cleaning. The only good thing about it was that they allowed... more

okay, I can't really say anything about the service because we didn't stay long enough to have them serve us. Me, my daughter, my brothers, and my parents went to cocoa beach on vacation and my mom booked this hotel online. as soon as we pulled up we knew it wasn't for us. yes it is beach front but my... more

After reading numerous good reviews of this property, we took a chance and booked three nights in late June. What a mistake! As we drove through Cocoa Beach, we searched and searched for the South Beach Inn -- we finally found it, but it was MILES from the stores and pier. When we checked in, the lady at the desk... more

I recently stayed at South Beach, after reading good reviews of South Beach Inn. My family isn't very picky and loves to find reasonably clean, modest rooms at reasonable prices. But I had a list of issues with this place that I finally just couldn't ignore any longer: broken sleeper sofa with torn up mattress (traded rooms); broken roll-away bed... more

After Hurricane Francis, try finding a place that will take pets! South Beach Inn did thank Goodness! The South Beach Inn folks were WONDERFUL to us! The rooms are clean and the staff went out of their way to make us comfortable! I felt like I could call if I needed anything and they were right there. The view of... more
