Black Dolphin Inn

Our room was large and well equipped. The beds were very comfortable and staff were all friendly. The breakfasts were excellent and were different each of the 4 mornings of our stay. The main lobby and the porches and patios were all well maintained and easily accessible. We would definitely stay here again when in this area.

Delightful bed & breakfast… totally worth a stay!

I've traveled all over the world and stayed in some pretty remarkable hotels and rooms, but the Black Dolphin Inn is at the top of my list. We were there for three nights and simply loved it. The room had it's own entrance from outside, a suite, wonderfully appointed and incredibly quiet. We were looking for a few days to just relax and this was the place. It's also pet friendly, which is how we found it in the first place. The only thing more impressive than the Inn is the staff. Everyone is terrific, accommodating and always available. They have a nice breakfast with a three-item menu, changing each day. The Chef is terrific, again fitting in with the accommodating style of the Inn, even though it's a small menu. Nothing beats sitting outside for breakfast and enjoying the courtyard as well. It's only a short drive to town, both the tourist area on Flagler and the more historic sites on Canal St. When I was trying to decide on suggesting this trip to my wife, I had a great phone conversation with the owner, Brett Smith. Never having been in New Smyrna Beach, he was an incredible help. Considering that it was a cold call with no knowledge of the Inn or the area, Brett was the reason I booked the room! And it was beyond expectations. This is a wonderful place to stay - outrageously peaceful and we'll definitely be heading back again in the near future.

For the price it was too noisy Walls are not insulated for sound I could hear the people next door talking and even snoring through the wall. Mattress is old and uncomfortable with definite depressions on both sides.

Me and my daughter came down for two nights for my nieces wedding. The property is super cute! Our room was absolutely adorable. Bed was super comfortable. Shower and spa tub was fantastic. I was pleasantly surprised that they offer to bring a complimentary breakfast to your room at the time of your choosing. The breakfast was so delicious! And there was a lot of food. Me and my daughter both saved the other half for the next morning- no need to be wasteful. Eggs, muffin, croissant, potatoes, fruit and OJ! The chef is amazing. The whole staff is so nice and accommodating. I definitely look forward to coming back. Too of my list of favs for sure!!!

Large room with two balconies overlooking the water. Excellent breakfasts brought to your room!

I’m so glad we found The Black Dolphin Inn! We came to NSB for a wedding and stayed the weekend. The room was perfect, and my favorite part was getting breakfast delivered to our room every morning, and eating it on the balcony while watching the squirrels play in the huge live oak! Definitely recommend!

This is an amazing eclectic boutique hotel. I would stay here over a Hilton any day. It feels like home, the staff is so friendly and welcoming, and a Chef personally makes breakfast for the guest each morning. Do yourself a favor and visit this property on your next trip to this area.

What a wonderful stay at this beautiful property! The room was amazing and the staff was so great. The breakfast was superb. We would go back in a HEARTBEAT!
