A wonderful stay

We enjoyed a one night stay at this beautiful Inn. The staff were great and welcoming. The room was large and comfortable. Breakfast was eggs with avocado toast and it was delicious. A short drive to downtown Canal Street and Flagler Beach. Highly recommend staying here.

Wonderful B&B small hotel

For us a perfect size, about 10 units, very well kept- friendly service- and a home like atmosphere. Bed was comfortable, and room very quiet. NIce view from all rooms. The breakfast was excellent. All in all a very good value

5 Stars !

Our stay at the Black Dolphin Inn was nothing short of incredible! From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by the charm, attention to detail, and welcoming atmosphere. The entire property is stunning—elegant, peaceful, and full of character. Our room was luxurious, spotless, and beautifully designed, with every comfort thoughtfully provided. The staff truly made our experience unforgettable. They were warm, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The breakfast each morning felt like something out of a gourmet magazine—fresh, creative, and absolutely delicious. The location is peaceful and scenic, right on the river, with breathtaking views (we even saw dolphins!). It’s close to the beach and local spots, but it still feels like a hidden sanctuary. This was one of the best stays we’ve ever had, and we can’t wait to come back. If you’re visiting New Smyrna Beach, staying at the Black Dolphin Inn is an absolute must!
