"Terrible. Ended up spending another $1,600 last minute to stay elsewhere. This is not an air bnb or anything similar. It’s is one child size bedroom in a rude old lady’s house. It is intentional false advertising. The “shared bathroom” clause is supposed to have you assume you will be sharing the place with the elderly woman that lives there and whatever guests she has in another room. She called us that day and corrected our grammar and was very rude. Upon arrival, we walked past a living area...

"This property was a hidden gem, turning out to be far above expectations. It is very well maintained, clean, attractive, and the staff couldn’t be nicer! Everyone was pleasant, helpful, and friendly. Bottles of water were provided as well as homemade cookies, and the breakfast was delicious! I would highly recommend staying here."

Plantation Resort on Crystal River

10/10 Excellent

"In the defense of the hotel, considering they are still in the middle of rebuilding after a few hurricanes back to back, we stayed on the golf course side in a loft when I first got there I did have to do some cleaning because there were spots and a lot of dead bugs all around the walls along the baseboards, I think the worst thing was which is first world problems was the Wi-Fi not working correctly and our defense it was opening day of college football so it mattered a lot to have the TV working and not have to switch between phone, cast, and Wi-Fi TV , other than that our stay was above and beyond perfect it couldn’t have been any better. The staff was excellent."
