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!!!

Perfect!
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!

Dolphin Inn - Smyrna Beach Fl.
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.
