This charmingly retro hotel is not only adorable, it has the best of everything that this area has to offer, from great restaurants to a gorgeous beach, all within walking distance.

Frenchy's Oasis Motel is located on the Florida Intracoastal Waterway, just a couple of blocks from Clearwater Beach.

If the name brings to mind your favorite grouper sandwich, it's no coincidence. This little motel is owned by the same Frenchy and destined to become another Clearwater Beach classic.

Everything in Frenchy's Oasis Motel is designed to make you feel like you walked back into the 1960s, from the bright colors to the furniture and decor. Even the appliances are retro, but don't worry, they're just modern remakes.

As you can probably guess, Frenchy's isn't the Four Seasons, but it isn't what might come to mind when you think of a "motel" either. It's impeccably clean and newly remodeled.

Places like this really speak to most Floridians who are just looking for simple accommodations without a lot of bells and whistles. It doesn't hurt that Frenchy's Oasis is only a couple of blocks from the beach, either.
