There were signs around about panhandlers, but we were only approached by one couple. The funniest thing was walking on the pier and seeing everyone fishing. There was a small area between the restaurant and the fishing area that had signs posted to not fish there. There was at least 10 people fishing there. We also were able to watch a couple surfers, even though the waves were not big.

We will def be coming back to visit with faith for the next bull riding and have invited others as well!! She kept the crowd going and was even very outgoing making our entire group feel as if we were regulars! Update: we got our dates mixed up and ended up going back on a non Buliding night and Faith was also our bartender ! Almost didn't recognize her not dressed as the epic bull fighter! We were all pleasantly surprised as she is also a very attentive, outgoing, on point bartender. No drinks went unnoticed and the personality was in full flow! Our group will definitely be returning for the next bull riding as we have a few more looking to take the title :) well done Full Moon Saloon!

5 stars - Absolute hidden gem on Beach Street! We had the…read morebest time at the Polynesian Fire Luau (Hawaiian Luau) on Beach Street in Daytona Beach and cannot recommend it enough. This place completely exceeded our expectations. Jim, the host, was fantastic -- so informative and entertaining as he shared stories about life in the Polynesian Islands. He kept the energy high the whole night and made everything feel warm and personal. Every single performer was incredibly talented. The dancing, music, and overall show were top-notch. A special shout-out has to go to Noah. When a torrential downpour hit as we were leaving, he went way above and beyond to help us get safely to our car. That kind of genuine care and hospitality is rare, and it really sealed the night for us. The wait staff was professional, kind, and attentive throughout the evening. The decor was wonderful -- you truly feel transported the moment you walk in. And the food? Solid and satisfying. Everything came together for a memorable night. This is a true hidden gem, and we will definitely be coming back. Thank you for an excellent time -- you made our evening special!

We are locals and decided to try out the Daytona Lagoon on an afternoon at a discounted rate since…read morewe only wanted to use the lazy river. Very much looking forward to a few relaxing hours in the water. I checked and purchased tickets online, the website clearly stated that all water park features were available for this rate. Sounded great! We arrived and immediately had problems with the staff validating our parking. Then, we asked about lockers, and they were $10 - $15 to keep your things safe. We paid that additional fee, and then realized that the lazy river was shut down. I asked a lifeguard why, and he said they were understaffed and maybe it would open at 4 or 5 (our tickets were only good until 6). Other visitors were also complaining about this. There are no umbrellas, just chairs in the sun. And the only attraction we wanted to do was closed so we got our stuff out of the expensive locker and asked for a refund. The manager said that the lack of lazy river access was specified in the online ad, which it was not. She then said that we should be happy since this was a discounted fee. We were not. They finally did refund our money but refused to refund the locker fee since they outsource this service. And, of course, the parking was still a problem. My husband also had bought a drink with a $20 bill and the attendant scrutinized it saying they had a lot of counterfeits. All in all the entire experience was hugely frustrating and disappointing. They treated us like the bad guys when they had clearly misrepresented the experience. I can see why no one was really there. This place could be a great asset to Daytona, but it is really a huge embarrassment. We won't be back, and we won't recommend it to anyone else.

The place is popular and people talk about it. It has souvenir stores, restaurants, candy stores, an ice cream shop, and other stores. It is colorful and clean inside. The entrance has a huge sign so it is easy to spot. This shopping center has a parking garage. What is convenient and great about parking is that is right across from the shops. The garage connects to the building with a walking bridge. The bridge was clean and colorful. A good place to take pictures. . . . I saw towards the back of the shops a bandshell. A nice area with chairs. I don't know if it's part of the shops but I just wanted to mention that if you keep walking towards the back there are more things to see.

I had my QR code ready for scanning. I waited roughly 5-7 minutes to get inside the large conference room. Not bad! I found my group and took a seat. There was a large stage where the worship team lead us in praise music. Priscilla Shirer had a smaller stage built out in front of the original stage which put her closer to the audience. I thought this was a nice touch! I pre-ordered the box lunch as I didn't want to leave the conference center to find food. Or be tempted to buy junk food at the conference center food stands. When we broke for lunch I got in line to pick up my box lunch and bottled water. Once again I had my QR code ready. I waited roughly five minutes in this line. My friends and I took our lunches outside and found some shade. I enjoyed a Boar's Head turkey sandwich with lettuce, tomato and cheese. There were mayonnaise and mustard packets in the box, plus a bag of plain kettle chips and a small soft chocolate chip cookie. The lunch was pricey at $22, but it was worth having it prearranged. And it was a decent meal. I enjoyed my time in Ocean Center and would definitely attend another event!

The woman at the entrance was kind and helpful, though she spoke so softly my ADHD brain had to lean in like a detective--but her directions were spot on. Inside the main building, the art from Cuba was the star for me--bold, vibrant, full of life. Some of my absolute favorites were in the Cuban art section--each piece felt like it was humming with its own frequency. The geometric painting (the one drenched in deep reds, burnt oranges, and that sharp black hourglass shape) hit me first. It's bold, mathematical, yet somehow spiritual--like a coded message meant for anyone perceptive enough to catch it. Very "guardian-spirit-meets-mid-century-modern." I stood there longer than I expected. The giant ancient sloth? Unreal. I wish they'd place a modern-day sloth beside it, just so my brain could process the scale without glitching. The bug/kids section was unexpectedly adorable. The kids were living their best lives, and honestly, I was right there with them--zero shame. I did drive over to the second building for the "It's a Ship Show" exhibit, and okay... I see what they did with the title. At first glance I read it as "It's a Sht* Show," and for a split second I thought MOAS got sassy. The artwork leaned heavily into still life, and to me it felt more like pieces you'd find in an upscale lounge, a refined boutique hotel, or a polished restaurant--visually pleasing but not as emotionally stirring as the main gallery. Just my personal taste. I could've spent more time wandering around, but I was on a first date with someone who kept making me laugh. I felt like the loud kid in class trying to stay quiet in a museum. Overall, great value, memorable art, and a surprisingly fun atmosphere. I'd definitely go again--preferably when I'm not giggling through every exhibit.
