Our stay was great. Checkin was fast, maybe 5 minutes. Our room was clean and the grounds were excellent. Loved the pool and the tiki bar.
Robert, 5-night trip

2/10 Poor

Showed up for our stay but the hotel is completely closed until July 2025… nobody bothered to email or call us. In fact the week before we came we actually got a message that they were excited for our trip … literal locks on the door and a sign and the interior gutted

Angela Lauren, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

We enjoyed our 1-night stay at The Plantation Resort. Staff was very nice and helpful. The pool was relaxing and the bar Manager, Shelly, poured delicious margaritas! Shelly was super sweet. We loved swimming with the manatees in Crystal River and we hope the staff is safe from the recent hurricane. This is an older property, but our room and bathroom was clean, had a mini-fridge, and we ate a delicious breakfast the next day on property.
