great location on the river

The Plantation Inn is very quaint. It's positioned on a beautiful river with a great view from the pool. The bathroom was a good size with a seperate vanity area.The restaurant had a good atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

There is a wildlife preserve nearby. The river is surrounding everything so there are boat cruises with great views.

Old Florida at its best

We were going to swim with the manatees in Crystal River. If you're going there, the Plantation Inn was a good place to stay. We stayed in the newer (remodeled) rooms. Ask for them. Only drawback was the restaurant (Savannah). Only about 9 people in dining room when we were there and still service was poor. Food was not tasty. Overpriced for what we got. Soup was really poor! Would not eat there again but would stay there.

Fun for the whole family

Had a great time at the Plantation. The room was perfect, very comfortable, well appointed and clean. The lobster special in the dining room on Friday night was super. There is lots to do, boating, fishing, swimming with the manatees, golf, a great pool, even suffleboard and croquet. Just a perfect two day get away!

Make this Plantation on Crystal River part of your travel plans!

The grounds are naturally beautiful, the views are spectacular. The room, for this particular individual, was meticulously clean. The bed was very comfortable. The staff was friendly and accomodating. We ate at the restaurant and found the staff efficient and attentive, the food - perfection! There is plenty to do in the area. I wish we could have stayed longer! In addition, this is a true travel value. Make it a point to stay at the Plantation on Crystal River!

What a deal!

We decided to switch things up this year and try a different hotel in Crystal River during Christmas break. The Plantation is beautiful, has nice rooms, friendly staff, and a super location for outdoor activities. We can't wait to visit next year.

Absolutely Beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Much to my surprise I got a GREAT DEAL on line. The grounds are beautiful. There is an extremely Large outdoor heated pool and a Hot Tub that fits at least 5 people comfortably. The food in the dining room was a bit pricey but very good. They have a separate bar /lounge area where you are able to order food off of a smaller menu. We sat near the fireplace while we sipped wine and it was delightful. There is a Gazebo on the ground that is typically used for weddings and the grounds are well manicured. There are boats to rent or trips on pontoons to take to view the Manatee. There is also volleyball net & pit as well as a crocket game set up. I used the gym a few times while I was there and the equipment is all brand new and working perfectly. They have treadmills, elliptical, recumbent bicycle, dead weights, medicine balls, and resistance machines.They have a full size bubbler in there with fresh water and towels to use. And a dial on the wall for music . Buddy the Clydesdale is out of commission now but a great guy to feed & talk to. He loves company and apples & carrots. *** I would definitely recommend this place. ;-)

Shop around on line for the best deal. If you are able to wait until the last minute to book your hotel you can get a GREAT DEAL. I also believe you get a better rate when you are booking consecutive nights.

Surprising place

This was an unexpected delight. The hotel was lovely and the area of Crystal River was not what you would expect in a typical Florida town. Very nice and interesting.
