OK but not impressed

Stayed in a handicapped room (although didn't need one). The light switch for the bathroom was behind the door on outside. So you had to close the bathroom door and turn the light on, then open the door to do into bathroom. Doesn't make sense in a regular room and especially not a handicapped room. Bed was very comfortable and room clean and nice. Friendly staff. There "breakfast included" was misleading. It was a "bag to go". Tiny orange, tiny granola bar and bottle of water. With all the hype we seen online, we were disappointed. It was in January, so maybe it's better in warmer weather.

The lobby looked nice and modern but didn’t match the rooms. My card key didn’t work and I had to wait an hour to get into my room. The front desk employee did try to get my room open but wasn’t successful and had to call everyone to help and no one was answering their phones at 11p. The phone inside the room didn’t work so that I can at least call the front desk. The little garbage in the bathroom was holding the bathroom door open. The shower water took about 5 minutes to get hot. The do not disturb magnet was falling apart. Terrible experience

Horrible Hotel

DO NOT STAY HERE. Rooms are not as advertised. Stuck in unrebovatwd building. Cleanliness and condition are questionable. No hot tub as advertised. Water $3 a bottle. Undrinkable coffee $3. Hard Croissant $3. Woman at counter is “not all there” - rude and offensive. This is a horrible place and no one there seems to care. Think twice.

This property was the perfect location for our 4 day stay in Crystal River. The staff were wonderful. We enjoyed breakfast at the coffee shop every morning before heading out for a day of swimming with the manatees, shopping in town (which is within walking distance), kayaking, or site seeing. It is so convenient to have the adventure center and water access right on the property. Also a short drive to Three Sisters, Hunter Springs, and Homosassa Wild Life Refuge, just to name a few awesome destinations. Plenty of food options nearby! Our king room had a kitchenette. While it was not luxurious it was very clean, spacious, comfortable, and well stocked. The bathroom was tiny but that's not a complaint, just be aware if this is an issue for you. Room service cleaned and restocked daily. Highly recommend!

Came to swim with the manatees

Chose to stay here as we were coming to swim with the manatees and they had a company on site so we also chose to use them. The newly renovated rooms were nice. We had a little problem with our first room and they happily moved us. There are restaurants very close by also
