**This hotel was impacted by *Hurricane Irma* in September 2017 and has re-opened with minor exterior damages and some inventory restrictions. We will update our review as soon as we have more information.** The 96-room Sun Viking Lodge is a value property that draws families who are repeat visitors year after year. It's located right on the beach, and homey rooms are well-kept, with either microwaves and mini-fridges or full kitchens. Some have nice beach views. The indoor and outdoor pools overlook the beach, and the 60-foot slide at the outdoor pool is especially popular with kids. The game rooms also are popular, and the little ones stay entertained in the kids pool, at the playground, and with many on-site activities. The similarly priced La Quinta Inn & Suites Oceanfront Daytona Beach has free continental breakfast and dogs are allowed, unlike at the Sun Viking.

Hawaiian Inn is a 208-room budget hotel right on the sandy shores of Daytona Beach. Spacious studios and suites can be a decent value, as all have full kitchens and free Wi-Fi, units are privately owned so decor varies -- many could use a serious overhaul. The hotel has a large outdoor pool area with a tiki bar, as well as a kids' pool and an indoor pool. The hotel offers mini-golf, shuffleboard courts, and a seasonal breakfast cafe. All in all, the Hawaiian theme is quite tired and the resort is dated throughout. Families with children may want to compare rates with Sun Viking Lodge, which has organized games and an outdoor waterslide, but a smaller outdoor pool.
