Hard Rock Hotel Daytona Beach: As the name suggests, this oceanfront hotel takes its music very seriously. In fact, from the hotel’s lobby, to its restaurants, other common areas, and even in the guest rooms themselves, music and music-related memorabilia are common (and recurring) themes seen in the décor and reflected in the laid-back atmosphere. The Hard Rock’s Wave Terrace is a great outdoor music venue featuring an oceanfront stage, plenty of open deck space for dancing, lots of lounge chairs and even glowing fire pits. And the venue’s upcoming events spotlight local acts, regional acts and tribute acts covering a wide range of musical genres.
