It was a great place to stay and relax. Loved the live music from the new place over by the warm pool, cool vibes and a killer time in peace and tranquillity.

This was out third year at this property. While we love the location and many of the amenities, there has been staff turnover, and as a result, inconsistency. We stayed in the main hotel which was noisy at times. The mattress on our king bed was badly worn and not very comfortable, though the staff flipped it for us. Definitely not worth the price of the room. Lisa and the spa were great.

I was in total shock at how nice and quiet this place was. Anywhere you want to go for your vacation is within walking distance. Bars, restaurants, shops, Beach and so much more.

Quaint beach hotel with very ‘quaint’ decor. Stayed in Flamingo room which stood by itself. Would want that room if we return. Did not take part in spa messages etc. but heard they are the best around. Did go in the very nicely warm mineral bath right outside our door. Excellent included breakfast in grand room and outdoor pergola overlooking the waves! Marie was server , chef, bus person, front desk and concierge all in one. Try her waffles for sure! She made our stay extra special! Denise made sure we had everything we needed in our spotless cottage on the beach!

Very nice facility. Dining area offered wonderful views of the Atlantic. Food was prepared excellently, and was great. Most comfortable bed linens I've ever slept upon. Was difficult to get anyone on the phone. Service was less than desirable, and we had no housekeeping service at all. Our stay was two nights.

During the rainstorm, there was water leaking in the living room part of the suite. Our room could have been attended to more frequently and It was nice to be on the beach….

The pictures do not depict the age of the resort. The manager was very nice. There were some maintenance issues that were not resolved during our visit. The Happy Hour was a nice treat. The walk to the beach was close. Disappointed by the internet pictures. No curtain or window covering in the front window.

Found bodily fluids and beer caps on the sleeping area. Got yelled at by the manager for mentioning it and they leave the back patio door unlocked all night without any hotel staff on the premises all night. Unsafe, unsanitary. If you complain they will get very argumentative and verbally attack you for it.

Golden Magnolia Resort & Spa is truly a hidden gem in the Daytona/Flagler area of Florida. My husband and I came across their property on Expedia when we were looking for places to have our honeymoon at, and I’m so glad I came across this one! The customer service at the property is top-notch (specifically the manager Maria); the amenities are great; and the restaurant on-site is fantastic! Their spa services are also great, which we recommend checking out. Loved everything about this place and will definitely be coming back for a weekend getaway! 🙂

The property was very nice & quiet, pool and view were beautiful. Liked that breakfast was included with our stay, but the cooking could have been improved a bit. Only complaint is that the room smelled very moldy and there were stains on the rug and mold all over the shower. Othwerwise we very much enjoyed our stay and appreciate the staff accommodating our late arrival so willingly.

It is not a "resort" by any means. It is a small bed & breakfast. They only take check-ins until 6pm so I did a "self check-in." The room itself is incredibly cheesy and dated, which I should have realized from the photos. I was a solo traveler and this place is clearly catered toward couples. There were a couple sheets of paper left for me in the room but the internet was not working so I couldn't access the digital guest book. I felt totally disoriented the whole time because no one ever even gave me a tour. No staff member ever contacted me during my 2 night stay. There is no security or even locked doors/gates to keep someone from getting to the rooms. The room itself locks, but the doors are glass windows covered with blinds only. Because of this, there's also no privacy because if you want any natural light, you have to open the blinds. It was very noisy. I could hear people in the room next to me loudly yelling at 2am the 1st night. The 2nd night there was loud music playing until probably 10pm or so. Luckily I had brought ear plugs. Breakfast was included, but only 3 unappealing options were offered so I passed. There was no housekeeping during my stay so no trash was taken, no clean towels, etc. I was in the midst of a very exhausting hiking trip so I did not have the energy to call management for every little thing, nor should I have had to. I had a spa appt scheduled for the last day but left early and cancelled it because I was so unhappy. ZERO service. Stay away.

Really hard to find fault. Amazing staff, managment and amenities. The ocean view is a plus, the property is unique and cool. Yes, we did enjoy our in-room jacuzzi. Very clean and all in working order. I suggest champagne and strawberries, and do NOT miss the breakfast.
