Siesta Motel

Siesta Motel occupies a small, easy to miss property on South Washington Avenue in the Riverside Park neighborhood of Titusville, a quieter, more residential stretch of the city than the hotel row out by I-95. Business directory listings describe the rooms as air conditioned with flat screen televisions, kitchenettes, and complimentary WiFi, features aimed squarely at travelers who want to cook a simple meal in their room rather than eat out for every meal of a multi-day Space Coast trip.

The motel keeps a small footprint and modest, family style hours, open daily but closing up in the evening rather than running a full 24 hour front desk, which fits the character of a small, independently owned property rather than a large branded hotel. Wheelchair accessible rooms are available, and the property is listed as accepting cash only for payment, another marker of a modest, locally run business that has not modernized every part of its operation to match the big chains.

The Riverside Park setting puts guests within reach of the Indian River and reasonably close to Kennedy Space Center without the premium pricing that comes with staying directly along the interstate corridor where most of the branded hotels have clustered. For a traveler planning several days on the Space Coast who wants a kitchenette to save money on meals, and who does not need a full slate of amenities like a fitness center or an on-site restaurant, a small property like Siesta Motel can be a practical and considerably more affordable option than the chain hotels nearby.

Details about Siesta Motel beyond what is captured in local business directories are limited. The property is associated with a Facebook page listed under the name Siesta Motor Inn, but specific information about current ownership, exact room rates, or recent renovations is not easy to confirm through public sources, so travelers considering a stay should call ahead to confirm availability, current rates, and the state of the rooms before booking. It is included here as a genuine, independently owned motel operating within Titusville city limits, the kind of small, unbranded property that has quietly served travelers in this river neighborhood for years without much of a marketing presence beyond word of mouth and a listing in the local directories.

Travelers weighing a stay here should treat it the way they would any small, family run motel that keeps a low profile online, worth a phone call to ask about current room condition and rates, and a reasonable option for anyone who wants a quiet, residential feeling base for a Space Coast trip rather than a room surrounded by highway traffic and a parking lot full of tour buses. Riverside Park itself is one of Titusville’s older residential neighborhoods, and staying there offers a different flavor of visit than the newer development clustered near the interstate.
