Located on Florida's central Atlantic coast, Daytona Beach proudly boasts a festival or event every weekend. Whether you're heading to the International Speedway for the Daytona 500, celebrating Biketoberfest in the fall, or just want to escape a harsh northern winter, the area offers opportunities for rest and entertainment. It is a convenient starting point for daytrips to central Florida attractions. The hard-packed sand beaches that made the town famous for racing are wonderful for swimming and soaking up the Florida sunshine, but for those days when the weather is less welcoming, many local motels, hotels and resorts have indoor pools and affordable rates.
The Sea Dip Beach Resort and Condominiums offer rates on par with area motels and feature kitchenettes in most rooms. The resort is centrally located in Daytona Beach and guests enjoy ocean views and an Olympic-sized indoor pool in addition to an outdoor pool.
