This convenient respite is located near everything you could possibly desire. Consider complementing your stay with services rendered by Riverview Spa with a champagne and berries pedicure for two or linger in a heated therapeutic mineral waterfall and pool after a soothing massage.

Hungry? There are so many restaurant choices close by that you will never run out of options. How about a margarita on the rocks lightly salted with a pesto shrimp flatbread chaser at the River Deck Tiki Bar? It’s right on the end of Riverside Drive! Or take that date night to The Garlic, New Smyrna’s own gourmet Italian restaurant which offers a magical Italian bistro garden setting with twinkling tea lights and rustic pizza ovens. There are waterfront dining options galore to sop up those butter drenched shrimp or savor that grouper fresh from the sea you’ve been craving.
