Great FUN!!!

"When my siblings get together for our annual reunion we've stayed at other hotels but the last time we stayed at the Aku Tiki. We had the best time – between the happy hours, the cleanliness of the rooms and the pool bar...it was the BEST!!! Our last happy "hour" lasted most of the day out at the pool bar!!! What better way to end a vacation?!!"

Great Hotel!

"My family and I own property in Daytona and we like to stay a few extra nights so we always stay here! It is very clean, free breakfast buffet, clean and warm pool, clean rooms, the staff go above and beyond!! The staff are constantly cleaning and keeping up with the hotel. It is by far the best hotel on the strip. Very relaxing for older couples and fun for families as well. Beach access and very pretty well kept grounds! We look forward to going back again next year!"

No better Beach

"We were fortunate enough to get to Daytona Beach last September aand stay at the Aku-Tiki. What a pleasant surprise, in every area, cleanliness, desk staff, grounds, housekeeping staff, we can't wait to get back! The "special" ad that was just sent us might be just enough to get us back soon also!"

Absolutely wonderful hotel

"Just came back from our vacation. It was our first stay at Aku Tiki. Can't say enough about this hotel. My Mom and I both absolutely loved it. Excellent location, breathtaking view of the beach and the ocean from our room, wholesome people in a staff, always willing to help. We also enjoyed great breakfast and ability to cook our own meals since we stayed in a room with kitchenette (which saved us a lot of money). Our room was very spacious and clean. We also enjoyed spending time by the pool--perfect place to relax. Hope to stay there again, highly recommend to everyone."

Great Hotel, Great Price and Great Staff.

"Friends of ours recommended this place and we are now booking our third year there. Great pool, easy access to the beach and great for young families. Always have great experience at front desk and hospitality personel always pleasant. Also has laundry facilities which is always a plus. You won't be disappointed."

Great hotel, great price.

"My husband and I have only stayed here once but will definitly return in the near future. The hotel is beautiful and the room was very clean and very big! They didn't have an "oceanfront" room available so we stayed in a room facing the parking lot, but you could still see the ocean! We were very pleased with our experience and will be staying here again when visiting the Daytona area."

PERFECT

"We have stayed here 2 times and will never stay anywhere else. The staff is friendly and helpful. The place is VERY clean and the restaurant is delicious. You can stay on the pool side and still have a great view of the ocean. We highly recommend this hotel."

Linda
Ames, Iowa - January 25, 2012

"We have stayed there two times and can find nothing wrong with the rooms, the service, the staff (they all say "Good Morning), the cleaniness, food on the breakfast buffet, grounds and the pool. We have decided that we will probably never stay in Ormond Beach again now that we have found this jewel."

"$100 a night for a clean and nice hotel on the beach? Almost unheard of. What a great deal. This was our 2nd stay here and once again we had a great time. Everything was clean, rooms are nice, view of the ocean, great pool.This is ideal for families. Will be back for sure."

"I am very fussy about where I would stay, I checked out a lot of places before I decided to stay at the Best Western Plus Aku Tiki Inn. We had a wonderful time the rooms were very clean and roomy. The staff was very friendly and the traders restaurant was very good and we enjoyed the happy hour in the evening."

"We stayed at this hotel for my sister's wedding during the weekend of April 7-11. We book right on the Best Western site and was able to secure a deluxe room for under $100/night. The hotel was on the quiet side of town (which was great because the National Cheerleading competition was in town). The room with a stove and refrigerator. The hotel was extraordinarily clean with a bonus of it being right on the beach. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone."

Cherry Hill, New Jersey

"I stayed at the Tiki for 6 nights with my 3 kids and friends. We loved our stay! The rooms were spacious and immaculate; the restaurant was very good and not too pricey; the pool deck is one of the best I've ever seen-great size pool and easy access to the beach. The rates are affordable and worth it! The staff was awesome and overall we were so comfortable and wanted to stay longer! Thank you to everyone at the hotel for having us. Julie was especially kind and friendly at the desk as was everyone else including Ward, Chelsea, Lisa, Terri."

FL

"A clean, lovely hotel right on the sand in Daytona Beach Shores. A grassy area and upper and lower pool deck with abundant tables, lounges and fresh towels. Pool is always clean and crystal clear, surrounded by lush shrubs. Outdoor ping pong, shuffle board and basketball. Work out room with excellent equipment. Superb restaurant and bar with daily happy hour. Management and staff are always accomodating and friendly. Simply the best!"

Buffalo, New York

"Our family stayed a couple of days before Easter. This was my wife and I's first time at the Aku Tiki. My daughter's family had been there before and were highly complementary and I was extremely pleased also. All employees were helpful and seemed to have our interests in mind. The pool was great and the view breathtaking. The Inn even held an Egg hunt for the kids on the Saturday before Easter. The restaurant was great with a two pound crab leg special that was delicious. My wife and I will definitely return again!"

Julie Andon

"We've stayed at the Aku Tiki seven times now and expect to make it many more. Location, rooms, pool are great but it's the staff that makes the difference! The long-serving professional staff speaks volumes about management and their concern for the guest. Their goal is always a great stay and the people at Aku Tiki always exceed expectations!!"

Steve Shullaw

"I've stayed at the Aku Tiki since I was three years old and always had a great time. Last year I stayed with my girlfriend and we loved it! I'm coming back again this May and looking forward to seeing the new renovations."

Tom Blanchard

"We happened to have a bad experience with a hotel and ended up making our way to the Aku Tiki. Thank God!! This hotel was just comforting. It was very clean (other hotel was not), the view was great and the hotel staff was exceptional! Unfortunately we had a sudden death in the family and could not stay our entire vacation and the staff was so considerate and took care of everything. They refunded us the days we were not going to be able to stay and were very sympathetic with us at such a bad time. We plan on trying our vacation again soon and this is the place we will stay. Overall just a great hotel!!!"

The room was so CLEAN; staff was very helpful and polite; the food was wonderful; the pool excellent and clean; and the view of the ocean and beach awesome! Thanks for a GREAT vacation!"

"My family and I stayed at the Best Western Plus Aku Tiki in July of '05, we could not have been happier with our stay. We will make this our home when staying in Daytona."

Doug Neal
Coeburn, VA

"My wife and I spent four days at the Aku Tiki in July and cannot say enough about the hotel. Our room was immaculate and overlooked the pool and the ocean, which was enough to make our stay pleasant but the staff, from checkin to checkout were absolutely the best. They obviously know hospitality! Our family definitely will return next summer, hopefully for a longer stay. I did not bring my golf clubs but understand there are some wonderful golf courses in the area so I took some information with me and intend to plan a golf outing in the fall next year for a group of us who usually go to Virginia Beach. The complimentary cocktail hour should help convince them we need a change. Again, thank you to the staff - you do a great job!"

Carl McClelland

"This was one of the nicest hotels we have stayed in. The staff was great, the rooms were amazing, the pool was beautiful. Definitely recommend this hotel!"
