All-Suite Motel

All-Suite Motel has been operating in Edgewater since 1987, which makes it one of the longer running independent lodging businesses on this stretch of Volusia County. The property sits on North Ridgewood Avenue, also known as US Highway 1, putting it within easy reach of both New Smyrna Beach to the south and Daytona Beach to the north. Unlike a typical roadside motel, every unit here is set up as a suite with its own full kitchen, and that detail is the idea the owners built the entire business around.

The concept behind an all suite format is straightforward: give travelers a place that works as well for a week or a month as it does for a single night. Rooms include two full size beds in most suites, along with king non smoking rooms and at least one queen smoking room for guests who want that option. Every suite has a complete kitchen, so guests can cook their own meals instead of relying entirely on restaurants, which matters for families, snowbirds, and contractors or traveling workers staying in the area for an extended job. Daily maid service is included even for longer stays, and the property offers guest laundry facilities, free WiFi, cable television, and free parking.

The front desk is staffed twenty four hours, and the motel accepts all major credit cards and offers group rates for events like weddings and family reunions, which points to a business used to handling more than single travelers passing through on US 1. Its membership in the Southeast Volusia Chamber of Commerce dates back to 1988, just a year after the motel opened, and it has also been part of the New Smyrna Beach Hotel and Motel Association, showing a business that has stayed connected to the local hospitality community rather than operating on its own.

All-Suite Motel describes itself as an early adopter of the extended stay concept in this part of Florida, and whatever its exact place in that history, it has clearly stuck with the model for close to four decades while national extended stay chains built entire brands around the same idea. That kind of staying power suggests a business with a loyal base of repeat guests, whether they are here for a beach vacation, a work assignment, or a seasonal stay through the winter months.

Guests looking for live music nearby do not have to go far, since the motel sits within walking distance of a local lounge. Beyond that, New Smyrna Beach’s restaurants, shops, and beach access are a short drive south, while Daytona Beach’s boardwalk and racing history are reachable heading north. As an independently owned motel rather than part of a national chain, All-Suite Motel offers daily, weekly, and monthly rates, so it is worth calling ahead to ask about current pricing for the length of stay being planned, since rates can shift with the season along this part of the Volusia County coast. Travelers who want a practical, no frills base with room to cook and spread out will find the suites well suited to that purpose.
