    Met with Erin at the checkin counter and she was chatty and the registration went smoothly. The beachy themed room was clean and amazing in the Exuma Cay section overlooking the river and only a few steps away from the Black Fins tiki. Ample parking spaces were available. The price per night hovered around $235.00 with a $20.00 resort fee, which is still a good deal based on the location and time of high season still in effect. Breakfast is NOT complimentary but they offer some food in the lobby for a fee.

    After seeing the commercials for this place, I was eager to check it out, and I was not disappointed. Everything was awesome and this is everything a coastal establishment should be like. The property is totally awesome and has a great vibe. I loved where we sat and the great views. Ended up exploring the whole place with my toddler who decided to check everything out. We even saw a hermit crab from the dock. It's cool that you can take your boat here and there were a lot of people who did it and a nice guy there to help. The food was fantastic with the exception of the person in our party who ordered fish and chips and it was two small pieces of fish. But I enjoyed this place so much and by the looks of it, I bet they're absolutely slammed when they have live music. I can't wait to go back.

    Friendly staff, fresh seafood, unique options. Been coming over to the East Cast for years. Enjoy statin at the resort when the only rooms they had was over the marina. Loved the 7am Charter Boat sounds to wake us up. Still a great place to stay and eat.

    The room we had w/ a balcony overlooking the marina was wonderful, remodeled and comfortable. 2 Adirondack chairs and table w/ 2 stools gave options for morning coffee watching sunrise, dolphins playing in marina or evening listening to the music w/o the crowd. Sat on the beach, saw a comedian and ate at Blackfin Grill. If you want a great place to unwind and have quiet plus nightlife try it during week!

    We had a wonderful lunch here yesterday. Sat outside on the water, beautiful weather and nice ambiance. Good service. We really enjoyed the shrimp and crab roll, the steamed shrimp, and the seafood salad. Reasonably priced. Only thing missing was some live music. Maybe next time. Fun place to go on the water.

    fun beach bar. slow service. had to ask for water 4x before finally getting it. food was decent. prices were fair. drinks were good! Staff were nice but stretched thin .. and it wasn't even that busy. love the love music & the views

    This is one of the many Florida restaurants that feel like you're on vacation even if you live here all around. This place does check many, not all of the boxes. You have water views, it's outside, sandy floors, docks for hanging out on or docking your boat, colorful and festive and a few bars. We ended up at the bar because that's always our first choice. He ordered a beer and I ordered a bloody Mary. We were perfectly happy with our drinks so we ordered appetizers. Crab bisque- 6/10 not bad in flavor, but too watery. The bartender did apologize that it was a bit watery today. The kitchen needs to do better. (Can't remember the name) these fried fish bites- 4/10 I feel like if it wasn't for the dipping sauce these would just be very dull. When something taste delicious, you really shouldn't need sauce. It's just supposed to be an added touch if you wanted more of a flavor or if it's just a sauce person. The atmosphere is everything and it hits that mark. Would I drive out of my way to come back here, no. This is a great tourist spot. But as a Floridian, I look for the full package, not just the view. Oh, and of course they did have live music .

    My friend found this resort and the building we stayed at is up to date with clean modern carpets nice furniture , cute patio, modern bathroom, small refrigerator and microwave . Our beds were okay but not the best . I do like the value of this resort however there are some problems . I didn't like that the following day the beds were not made , no clean towels, no garbage thrown out , no refreshing of shampoo and conditioner ,coffee for the coffee maker . Also we were on the 3 floor and the first night the elevator broke , this meant my friends with knee problems had problem going up and down steps for three days no elevator . At check in they gave us some lovely tote bags and a plastic bracelet . The front desk people were welcoming . Over all I would stay here again ,if they straighten up these problems .

    Hushpuppies

    When we entered the place was hopping! There was a band play and the it was loud. We like talk so we found some tables away from the music but every table was full of dishes. We had to wait for a server to clean a table, however our server ran into a friend's family (by talk and gesture, this is my inference) and started talking and forgot about us. He cleaned their table and got their order before I had to remind him about it. (I'm all about serving the locals, we live in a tourist town. But he shouldn't forget he promised to clean our table!) Finally we got just waters for being seated but they taste like bleach, so we opted for alcoholic drinks which were just okay in flavor. We finally ordered. We got a starter of hushpuppies, I got fish tacos, and my husband ordered the special of blackened fish. The hushpuppies took no time to come out and we eat them while enjoying the view as we got a table right on the river. I took awhile for the food to arrive, however, and so you get no photos of that as we were hungry and just dug in. We really liked the hush puppies. My tacos were just ok. My husband did like his blackened fish. I'm sure this is a great party and drinking spot. Maybe not a "stop of lunch after the beach when you're hungry" location. Food was okay Service was really lacking Ambiance is what carried this review to 2 stars.

Last week we had drinks and I ordered a Margarita less OJ like I always do. It was straight sour mix on ice. Verified by 2 people at the table. I told the server that I think they forgot the tequila. She came back with the same drink and said the bar said "its because I skipped the OJ" ?? Well that would make it taste like sour and OJ wouldnt it? It still wouldnt taste like Tequila because there was none in it. Tje poor server agreed with me and apologized. She also said management will not let them freepour anymore and they are mandated to use jiggers. She said there had been several complaints about drink quality. I left the full drink , minus 3 tastings , on the table. Not only didnt they remake it, they charged me for it. Fast forward a week and we had friends visiting so we took the to the tiki to eat lunch. Everyone had mahi , 2 fried, one blackened. The blackened dish was cut up like french fries and drier than dirt. No one ate it. The fried plates were terribly fishy. I eat fresh mahi routinely and this wasnt fresh by any means. Im afraid we are going to have to find somewhere else to visit. There just aint much good around there anymore but the views, the music and the conch fritters ( but even they werent that great last time)

We moved to Melbourne Beach in Jan 2025 and still everything was good. Some changes in dishes we determined were just food costs cuts. This year my son and his family came and we had an early dinner. My 3 yr old granddaughter was excited to go to the shop that was usually by the hostess stand. It was relocated but now had nothing for children. The service was slow but we thought maybe it was busy since it was tourist season. The food was just fair. Last night was my birthday and of all the restaurants in town I chose Blackfins. What a mistake. Walking in was dangerously slick since they had flooding from earlier rain. We were sat in a small booth by the window. We had to walk out of the way since a dog that was a size of a horse was sprawled out on the floor. Our table was absolutely disgusting! It was dirty and sticky and the coasting of shellac had apparently gotten melted and was sticky and black. Even the seat was dirty and I ended up whipping away pieces of paper on my seat with my hands. Everything including my arms stuck to the table. It took awhile for a very young person with zero personality come to take our order. We gave him a drink and appetizer order. I was attempting to forget about how disgusting the table and the large dog was with the view. The drink that didn't have enough ice although I requested a tall glass with lots of ice arrived with the appetizer. It was good despite being served with greasy fried saltines. When I attempted to start eating a very large Woodstork was fishing on the rocks when the people with the large dog started throwing crackers at it..despite signs everywhere not to feed the birds. It then came up to the window and came too close for me to eat since it was eyeing our food. My husband sat still, told me to do so as well and was holding a knife should it attack. After 15 minutes it finally went away. Now our food was cold. We complained to the waiter but all he could offer was, "Thank you for telling me." No offer to relocate. Our main meals came. Both of our fish were way overcooked. Mine was dry and not edible. My husband's was dry but he didn't complain since my birthday dinner was basically ruined anyway. Forget the dessert I just wanted out of that dirty sticky area. So sad! I will have to find somewhere else to take me and my family.

As we waited under ten minutes for our meal, the wife was in awe of the choo choo train the circled the bar above our heads, a cool addition that goes a long way. Grilled Shrimp Skewers and NY Strip French Dip. OMG the shrimp were awesome with the crispy carrot wedges were a nice side. Drenched my NY Strip hoagie into the french dip since I love it soggy and it was perfectly flavored. The french fries were plentiful and seasoned well but not as crispy as I would like. The restaurant sits on the river but since it was late there was no view, but we were able to hear the live rock n' roll music coming from the stage at the Sandbar. The clean gender assigned bathroom was gorgeous with green ocean themed epoxy flooring, lizard skin walls and bamboo partitions. It was a WOW effect upon entry.

We live just down the road in Vero Beach, so discovering a neighborhood tavern with this much charm practically in our backyard was a real win. We had already eaten lunch at Nini's Cuban across the parking lot, so we stopped in just for a beer. Within minutes we were pulled straight into the atmosphere. Nancy, the bartender and proprietor, is the kind of host every small tavern dreams of. Warm, funny, and completely at ease, she makes newcomers feel like long‑time regulars while keeping the whole place running smoothly. The beer selection is far better than you would expect from a cozy local spot. There is a rotating craft lineup that rivals bigger bars, along with the classics and a surprisingly solid wine list. We spent half our visit sipping and the other half laughing at the hilarious signs covering the walls and at the antics of a couple of regulars who clearly keep the place lively. We have not tried the food yet, but the vibe alone guarantees we will be back and we will be coming hungry. This is the kind of place where you settle in, meet the locals, and let the afternoon drift. For the record, our beer of choice that day was "Cougar Bait." It is as much fun to drink as it is to say!

The DJ kept turning it up throughout the evening. By the time we left it felt like we were in a club. It was not even good club music. The music was 90s soul music. I love the music but would have preferred that as a background music. Crab stop is worth a trip, but I think I was just there on a bad night.
