The Inlet at Minorca offers the best panoramic, beachfront views of any condo in New Smyrna Beach. Your breath will be taken away by the incredible view from this spacious 13th floor 2/2 vacation condo, located at the northernmost point of New Smyrna Beach island, adjacent to Smyrna Dunes Park. This condo underwent a complete renovation which was completed in January of 2024. The ocean and/or river can be seen out of every single window! Mirrored walls in the living room add more to your view!! This unit is light and bright with floor-to-ceiling windows; Turkish shellstone flooring in the bedrooms, living room and kitchen; and Italian tile in the bathrooms. Brand new appliances and an 85" TV ensure you have everything you need to enjoy your stay. NASA and SpaceX launches can easily be seen from the front door of the condo, which offers a view of the river. From the private balcony you will enjoy views of the oceanfront; the inlet, Intracoastal Waterway, Smyrna Dunes Park (a 220 acre county park), and Ponce Inlet Lighthouse.

The Inlet at Minorca is within a gated, resort-like community, offering a panoply of first-class amenities to enjoy. Pools, heated spas, a fitness center, clay tennis courts, gated beach access, an outdoor kitchen with gazebo and two gas grills, a clubhouse with billards, saunas, a ChargePoint electric vehicle charging station, game room with ping pong table, a reserved garage parking space, and additional guest parking are some of the many offerings in the community. A beach pavilion offers a great venue for parties or Yoga classes in the mornings.

White and blue cabinets and a center island are found in the kitchen. Floor-to-ceiling sliders are located in the living room, master bedroom, and guest bedroom. The master bathroom has dual sinks and a shower, while the guest bedroom features an en-suite bathroom with a walk in shower. A full-size washer and dryer is found off the kitchen area.

From January 1, 2024 to approximately August 1, 2024, the exterior of the entire building is being painted. From approximately March 18, 2024 to May 2, 2024, the portion of the building at which the unit is located will be painted, so balcony access will be restricted. The building controls the schedule, but while the area around a condo unit is being painted, the building requires balcony furniture to be removed and restricts balcony access for those units.

Area Information
New Smyrna Beach is known for its phenomenal surfing, but that’s not all it has to offer. The restaurant scene here is pretty impressive for a small beach town. Dine Magazine described it as a “Foodie’s Paradise.”

Listed below are some of our favorite places to grab dinner or drinks:

For Breakfast/Brunch :
- Wake Up Cafe: This local eatery offers two different locations. One is located in the shopping center attached to the Publix on 3rd Ave, and the other is located on the N Causeway. They have traditional American breakfast platters, but also offer plates w/ Spanish and Argentinian influence.
- Third Wave Cafe: Third wave is a great spot for brunch or dinner. They have a gorgeous outdoor illuminated with string lights. They also have the best bloody mary in town. Their dishes strive to incorporate fresh, Florida ingredients. Located on Flagler.
- Bakers Table: This recommendation is the furthest south, but so worth it. They have a donut of the day on the weekends and it never disappoints. The brunch food (and drinks) always hit the spot here whether it’s their fresh shaved roast beef sandwich or their homemade gnocchi that is uncharacteristically light and airy. They are also open for dinner with a German influenced menu.
For Lunch :
- Yellow Dog Eats: Keep it casual and quirky by stopping in for a bite at Yellow Dog Eats - think psychedelic meets Florida meets dog lover. Their menu sports items such as pulled pork sandwiches, wraps, nachos, and tons of crazy toppings. They have a quaint little outdoor area in the back that you can eat in, or take your food to go and eat it at the brewery right next door. Located across the N Causeway bridge on Canal St.
- Cafe Heavenly: This is the closest food option to the condo, and definitely one of our most frequented places. It’s located right where N Peninsula Ave meets Flagler. You can’t go wrong w/ one of their lobster rolls (make sure to get extra lobster) or wood fired pizzas.
- Prima: Hands down our favorite pizza place in town. They have some really unique pizza e.g. The Beeline, which incorporates Italian peppers and meats with a dash of hot honey. This pizza joint is located right around the corner from the local brewery. You can pop in after some brews or pick it up beforehand and enjoy alongside your adult beverages. Note: the wait to eat there is usually pretty long; they have very limited seating.
- Da Kine Poke: If you want something fast, easy, and light you can’t go wrong with Da Kine. They are located in the middle of Flagler Avenue. They have a few different choices for raw fish and an option of tofu for vegetarians/vegans.
For Dinner :
- The Garlic: By far the most talked about restaurant in town. It has been featured on the Travel Channel. The atmosphere is nothing short of whimsical. I always feel like Alice in Wonderland when I walk through the entryway. They serve up traditional Italian food and the best lamb lollipops you will ever have (they come with a datil pepper jelly that you’ll only find in Florida.) This is a great option if you want a nicer dinner one evening. They also frequently have live music. Located across from Publix before the S Causeway Bridge on 3rd Ave.
- Riverpark Terrace: This beautiful mostly outdoors restaurant is located right across the N Causeway Bridge. The menu here is a little more elevated than other options on the list. On weekends they have live music outside. Definitely a favorite for date night.
- AA Garden Fusion: If you’re in the mood for Asian food this place has a little of every oriental cuisine. The owner is Vietnamese and draws on his travels to Thailand, Singapore, and beyond for the menu. Make sure to check their operating hours before venturing over; although, it’s located right on Flagler so plenty of other options to choose from. We recommend trying the beef wrapped in betel leaves or the Singapore noodles.
- Limoncello: This is another Italian recommendation, but the atmosphere here is way less crowded. This little restaurant right in the shopping center attached to Publix transported us back to our recent trip to Italy. The staff is very attentive and the pasta is to die for. They also have a great selection of Italian wines.
For an Oceanfront View :
- Off the Hook Raw Bar: The waterfront Off the Hook, located in Ponce Inlet, is one of two locations. Their second location is in the shopping center attached to the Publix. They offer oysters farmed locally in the Indian River. They have a really nice outdoor bar right on the water. This restaurant can be accessed by boat as well.
- Outriggers: This is both a restaurant right on the water and a marina. Locals often post up here for the whole day to booze, eat, and enjoy the Florida sunshine.
- JBs Fish Camp: This restaurant is a little further from the condo than most, but the views can’t be beat. It’s right on the sound in one of the little canals lined with mangroves. You can also rent a kayak or paddleboard from JBs. Keep a lookout for dolphins and manatees over here!
For a Sweet Treat :
- Treats on the Beach: A quick little order and go window on Flagler that serves a myriad of soft serve and hand scooped ice cream. By far the sweetest way to beat the Florida heat.
- Mon Delice Bakery: This is a French bakery that has been around since the 70s, and once you grab a few of their pastries it’s obvious how they’ve stayed around for so long. They are located on 3rd Ave near the Starbucks (please don’t pick Starbucks over here haha.)
For Drinks :
- The Bounty: This little bar above Flagler Tavern has major speakeasy vibes. The drinks are well thought out and carefully crafted. It’s not nearly as crowded as the tavern below which makes it a great place to enjoy a drink and a good conversation. They also have some fantastic food options as well.
- New Smyrna Beach Brewery: Best brewery in town. Locals hang out here quite a bit. It’s located right on Canal street. They offer a rotating list of beer on tap. A local and personal favorite is the Shark Attack IPA.

- La Fiesta NSB: this is one of Fiesta’s two locations, and is located just two miles from the condo. The other location is in Port Orange. They have several different types of guacamole—all amazing—and they have wonderful (and huge) margaritas.
- Big Joe’s: this small, family owned sub shop is quaint and serves delicious subs. It’s located at the far end of Flagler Avenue and it will take you back in time.
- Tin & Taco: this is a great taco stand with a handful of indoor tables. Located on Flagler Avenue, we recommend the sushi grade tuna tacos.

- Norwoods: an NSB classic. There Is a downstairs portion of the restaurant, but the coolest part of the restaurant is the upstairs deck which has trees surrounding it and coming through the deck, so it feels like a treehouse. Try the fried pickles, which are large spears which, as the name implies, are fried.
- City Market Bistro: located on Canal Street, this is a great place for fresh oysters, seafood and French influenced dishes.
- Chucherias: If you’re willing to make the drive over to Holly Hill, just north of Daytona Beach, this is a great restaurant with a beautiful dining room. The food has Carribean, Honduran and Spanish influences. Located 20 miles from the condo, it should take you about 35 minutes to get there.
- Chez Paul: 20 miles from the condo, in Daytona Beach, this old school restaurant has great reviews and great French food. The dining room hasn’t been updated in a while, but that’s part of the charm.
