This place is a hidden gem. It’s a tiny, one story, 5-room beachfront motel probably built in the 1950’s. Old school! But the rooms are nicely renovated, staff super friendly and helpful, check-in and out very laid-back and easy. It is right in the beating heart of NSB, a block from Flagler and all the shops and restaurants, right on the ocean. We loved it, and we’ll be back!

Michelle

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I really enjoyed stepping out of my room and walk right to the beach. I enjoyed that I never moved my car the whole time I was there because everything was within walking distance. I really enjoyed having a good AC, beach chairs available, beach towels available, and bikes to rent. What I didn't enjoy is there is not an ice machine at this location. You need to stop by a convenience store and by ice.

I really enjoyed staying at The Salty Mermaid. It is an absolutely beautiful location! It is a small hotel and doesn't seem fancy from the exterior, but it was clean and nice inside! It was probably one of the best locations you can get, as you walk right out on the beach, you have chairs and umbrellas provided, and you can walk to the shops and restaurants! I will definitely be going back!

This hotel is right in front of the ocean, no obstruction, the patio is above the sand, so you don’t have people pearling in your room. It is perfect! The decor inside is beautiful, parking is right in front of your room. They anticipate your needs. It was great
