This place is Old Florida at its best. Close to Weeki Wachee Park in a pretty quiet, beautiful setting. Would definitely go there again!

Waterfront property. Was nice to have kayak launch but weather was bad, so no one was at kayak rentals.
Room was tiny, but very well thought.

Enjoyed our stay and nice hospitality. The host ran in and got an extension chord so we could shorten the time needed to charge our bikes. Took a delightful canoe ride through the canals and saw manatee. Great quaint place with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Alicia and Scot 2/25

The mermaid themed room was well thought out & really made our stay feel unique. There was 1 manatee right off the dock when we arrived Thursday & three more on Saturday morning! What an experience! Plenty of great local restaurants were recommended by the property & we took the time to visit 2 of them. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Neptune's Grotto to anyone looking for a quiet & simple Florida getaway. We definitely are considering returning in the future! Thank yoi for hscing us!

The rooms are so well thought out with meticulous detail. We are in the serenity room and I am absolutely mesmerized by the colorful sparkles in the floor and all the cool decor. So bonus notes we have a hot tub with jets in our room and we get free kayaks to take out on the river! My husband and I could not be happier with the choice we made to book here. Really cool and thought out place. If you're looking for a nice relaxing getaway book you room at Neptune's grotto! We love it here. The owners added everything you could possibly want and more!!!

It is wonderful that kayaks are provided. As suggested, the short trip to salt springs was perfect. Also the kayak launch provided was very helpful.

What a cool little place! Rooms are not very big, but decorated cheerful and everything you need. Right on the water and not too far from dining. You must go watch the sunset behind the Inn a bit further down the main road.
