Black Dolphin Inn

The Black Dolphin is within easy walking distance to the historic town of New Smyrna Beach. There is quite a selection of restaurants, shops, galleries, historic sites and a cute museum. We looked forward to our wonderfully chef cooked breakfast every morning. Sitting at the bar, looking into the kitchen and chatting with the chef and manager was a fun way to start our day. They always had great recommendations for places to eat and things to do. Our room was cute, clean, cool and comfortable. It was always a treat to come back to after our big days. When we are in the area we will always stay here.

This is a beautiful small hotel. The room and bathroom were so beautiful. The balcony was really spacious. We could bike everywhere. It is away from the beach scene but close to the more interesting things for us, like the museum, Canal St., restaurants, etc. I would love to go back. We had our bikes and it was fun to bike through the lovely neighborhood. The breakfasts were great, and plentiful! You could have it delivered to your room or eat in the pretty kitchen/bar area.

Excellent 14-room small inn in a renovated and thoughtfully expanded 1940s home—family owners who know their hospitality. Felt like Northern California at New Smyrna Beach. We walked to a restaurant in the evening, had good breakfast choices, The room was in keeping with a boutique hotel.

The breakfast was very good. Every day was better than the last day. I could have had seconds of every breakfast. The cooks were very friendly while cooking breakfast. They also gave us different locations for dinner.

The breakfast was delicious and delivered directly to our room at the time promised at check in. The staff was very friendly and the room was huge!! There were two balconies you could use attached to the room. I’m usually not big on staying at a Bed and Breakfast but you gotta try this place!!
