An Elegant Inn
We knew nothing about New Smyrna or the Black Dophin when we booked our trip for a week. What a pleasant surprise. The Inn is facing the gorgeous bay with views of handsome sailboats as the sun comes up. You can have your delicious, daily varied breakfasts brought to your room, but there are very pleasant areas to sit outside in the courtyard or on the front porch. The breakfast chefs are outstanding and Jennifer is always available to help in any way. She found that we had left pills behind and she kindly sent them to us on her own by Fedex. Taylor was an exceptionally genial host, who went out of his way to make sure we were happy. The Inn is a real gem, with plentiful parking, and easy access to the beach, boat tours, and the many historical curiosities of New Smyrna.

The stairs outside were extremely slippery and i fell. I have scraps and bruises. When i reported it i was asked if i wanted an ibuprofen or an ice pack. I was not satisfied with the handling of the situation.

All host staff were amazing! Besides bringing delightful breakfast to room each morning they have a full coffee and tea bar along with beer and wine. Will definitely choose the Black Dolphin again when I’m area.

Stunning property. A real gem of a hotel. Lots of outside areas to sit and relax with beautiful views. Breakfast is served in the rooms which was a wonderful surprise but if you don’t want to eat in your room you can take your breakfast to the gardens. A very relaxed atmosphere.

The staff is so friendly and personable for anything we could possibly need. Room 108 was perfect!! The room and the ambiance was exactly what you want in a sleepy beach town getaway. Breakfast was a delight and the chef was a stand-up comic, story-teller, and fantastic cook. Even the dolphins cooperated--outside our window and visible thru the provided binoculars.

The Black Dolphin Inn is one of the best places I have ever stayed! From the moment I walked through the door I felt welcome, just like I was coming home. Jennifer was very kind and quickly checked me in. My room was quiet and very comfortable. While I was staying there was a problem with the circuit break for my room. Jennifer tried to fix it but needed an electrician. She moved me to another suite that was spacious, clean, quiet and very comfortable. Breakfast is delicious! The next time I visit the area I will be staying at The Black Dolphin Inn.
