What our Guests are Saying

  • Heidi
    We spent two nights at this wonderful B&B. The owners, Sandy and Joe, were very hospitable and welcoming. The room was very comfortable, including the amazingly soft sheets and towels. The breakfasts were DELICIOUS, such a treat! The B&B is very walkable to downtown Mount Dora (which I also loved), yet quiet at night. I'd highly recommend staying at this charming B&B!
  • Holly
    Quaint and lovely! Although we only stayed one night, we felt welcomed and loved on during our stay. The home is just beautiful! The room was very comfortable and breakfast was so delicious, beautiful presentation! The owners make you feel like a party of their family! Can't wait to go back! So glad we picked this place to getaway for the night! Book today, it won't disappoint!
  • Shelly
    We go to the February Art Festival almost every year and love to stay at Magnolia Inn. The new owners, Sandy & Joe are wonderful, best visit to date. Breakfasts were delicious and the room was spotless. The location is perfect for a weekend getaway to Mount Dora, just park your car and walk the town all weekend. Thanks for hosting us.
  • Scott
    An absolutely fabulous experience! From the authentically warm greeting received from Sandy and Joe to an almost sad goodbye, our stay at the Magnolia Inn was magnificent. The Inn itself is beyond charming and our room (the carriage house) was warm, comfortable, immaculate, perfectly decorated, and exceeded all expectations. But . . . the magic can be found in the hearts of our hosts. They truly connect and make their home your home. You are welcomed like family. Breakfast is a gourmet event, not a meal, and prepared exquisitely. The location is ideal and the grounds tranquil. If you are visiting Mt Dora and lucky enough to reserve a room at The Magnolia. know you have made the right choice. It doesn't get any better.
