Top Marine Science Center Hotel Reviews

The Riverview Hotel

8/10 Good

"Took awhile to get attention at the bar but as soon as management found out upon leaving, they stepped it up!!! Compensation is everything. Bought a beer lol"

Hampton Inn New Smyrna Beach

8/10 Good

"Our family has stayed here on several occasions. We love being right on Flagler with all the local shops and restaurants, and of course, being a few walking minutes from the beach! The rooms are always clean and spacious and the staff is friendly and helpful. A few items during this visit that were not so great: - breakfast until 10am advertised, but unfortunately many items (meats, milk, bread) were depleted at 9:30 on 2 of the 3 mornings we were there. - upon carrying bags to car just before 11am checkout our room keys stopped working at the locked back door. Perhaps this is policy, but a few minutes grace period on expiration would go a long toward ensuring guest satisfaction. Will stay again, but hope some tweaks might be considered."

10/10 Excellent

"We sincerely enjoyed our recent stay at the "Whale House" at NSB. The layout of multiple sleeping options and the wide open, comfortable common area was perfect for our large family, week long celebration. Additionally, the provisions were even better then explained or expected. Finally, the host was incredibly caring, responsive and understanding of the needs of our perfect stay. Initially, I was slightly hesitant due to what I felt was a high expense, but once there, with the comfort, provisions, beautiful large outdoor back porch, literally stepping onto the sands of the beach - it was worth every penny and perfectly priced! Several previous reviews noted slightly outdated areas of the home and/or older furnishings/appliances. We actually found this comforting and slight. We felt we could relax and enjoy an "at home" leisurely comfortable stay and focus on each other instead of a stuffy environment. All 13 of us - from the age of 2 to 64 - had a wonderful time and never felt "on top of each other". Several had to come and go throughout the week and found it a joy to return. I highly recommend this home for it is very comfortable, spread out, quiet and perfectly located."

The House On Crawford COTTAGE Historic House, Independent Apartment

10/10 Excellent

"The description was accurate and the location was very convenient. Less than a half mile walk to Flagler and just a block to the beach. If you prefer a firm mattress to sleep, this is not the rental for you. The kitchen is adequately stocked but not a full kitchen for cooking. It is a good value for a couple and we would stay again. Very quiet location."
