Charm of the Past
The Salty Mermaid is an adorable, vintage motel which has been updated but still keeping the charm of the past. Very clean with several amenities. Perfect beach location and So many shops and restaurants directly on Flagler We enjoyed our 1 night stay.

Just feel in love with the place. We’re locals just north of there and just wanted an overnighter on the beach. It was perfect. We can’t wait to return. Cheers!

Adorable ocean front vintage building with lovely updated rooms. Property and rooms were very clean and well maintained. Rooms have beautiful ocean view. Patios lead to a grassy area with chairs and umbrellas and a shower and then right to the beach. We will be back for sure.

This little 5 room motel is a GEM!!!! Walk out your back door and you are footsteps from the beach. You park your car out frt and don't need it at all. Everything is a short walk...shops... restaurants...and bars....the room was SPOTLESS and cozy and comfortable. Can't wait to stay again...we had room #1 which had a walkin shower. There is only 5 rooms so it's a nice private place.you can sit outside your room and out back on comfortable lounge chairs with umbrellas. If I rate this 10 stars I would.

I can’t say enough about The Salty Mermaid. It was a little slice of paradise. I went there to relax, be alone and find peace after a series of personal tragedies. I couldn’t have picked a better place. I will be going back. The golf cart rentals really add to the experience as well as the innumerable thoughtful amenities.

The Salty Mermaid is a unique hotel right in the heart of new smyrna. Comfortable beds, clean and within walking distance to all all the shops and restaurants. They also have golf carts for rent so you don’t need to go far if you need to rent one. Nice people!

It doesn’t look like much but it is a nice little place with only 5 rooms. The only downfall is that there is no pool but it is right in the beach with access out the sliding doors. The place is very clean (and I am fussy), the room is very cool with great AC. The shower has good pressure and plenty of hot water and the towels are nice and thick. We had a little mishap with checkin when they told us the room would be ready in 30 min and I’d get a call when it was ready but when we returned no one was there as we sat melting in the heat for someone to return. We were rescued by another guest who happened to have the owners phone number. We called all the numbers we had and even texted with no response. Other than that, our stay was very enjoyable and they do add many comforts like cold water and other drinks in the fridge, beach chairs and towels, lounge chairs in the back yard. I recommend!

Amazing place. On the beach. Rooms have all you need. Hotel has 5 rooms and there are two chairs and umbrella for each. Coffee, water and pops are free. Plenty of towels. Not luxury hotel but all what you really need and on right spot. Will recommend to everyone.

I'm a local-ish Floridian who traveled here for a weekend at the beach. The rooms are really big, super clean, and the king bed and pillows are so comfortable. I love the chaise lounge chairs right outside so you can get a tan and relax with a drink and look at the ocean and not have to fight for a spot on the beach. The staff were incredibly nice, friendly, and very accommodating. This hotel is in walking distance to anywhere you'd want to go, but you can rent bikes and golf carts if you want. I absolutely loved it here and will return next beach trip.
