Ocean Waters Management has unveiled a new name for its 80-room hotel at 500 North Atlantic Avenue: The SeaSide Inn.

The SeaSide Inn replaces the old Thunderbird Beach Motel and reflects the changes underway at the oceanfront inn on the World's Most Famous Beach. Since purchasing the property earlier this year, Ocean Waters has embarked on a renovation giving the Inn new landscaping, new paint and updated guestrooms.

"The SeaSide Inn reflects our commitment to enhance and beautify Daytona Beach. It's our mission to improve every property we acquire," said Ocean Waters Senior Vice President Doug Kosarek. "The SeaSide Inn is going to stand for a clean, comfortable room at a sensible price."

Located in the heart of Daytona Beach, the SeaSide Inn is just south of the landmark Plaza Resort & Spa. SeaSide Inn guests are encouraged to enjoy the resort luxuries nearby, including the 15,000-square-foot European-style Ocean Waters Spa inside the Plaza Resort.

"The SeaSide Inn is a part of a resort complex that encompasses the Plaza Resort & Spa and Plaza Ocean Club," Kosarek explained. "The SeaSide Inn provides travelers outstanding value with an unbeatable location right on the beach -- and within walking distance to attractions and the convention center."

Rates at the SeaSide Inn start at $69 a night.
