Walking distance to everything. Everything we needed during our stay was available 24/7. Housekeepers were very friendly and accommodating.
We loved everything.
4.7
The property is newly built/remodeled and is in great shape. The beds were very comfortable and the location is perfect if you plan to swim with the manatees.
It’s not an issue but the design of the “barn door” or sliding door for the bathroom isn’t my favorite but it worked.

Alles aanwezig, heerlijke bedden, super douche. Heerlijk rustige gelegen in Crystal River

The location was excellent. Walking distance to water, swimming beach and a tavern and restaurant for dinner. The service staff were very friendly and helpful. The home cooked croissants delivered to our door every day were delicious and a thoughtful extra touch to our stay.
The amount of rubbish generated from eating breakfast. Plastic spoons, knives, plastic, etc. Perhaps look into recycling or using real cutlery???
We were 14 minutes early to 3pm check in and was turned away. This seems harsh.

Alles! Hele fijne aardige eigenaren en elke dag verse broodjes. Dat was echt een feest. Modern en netjes ingericht. We hadden wel langer willen blijven.
Niets

Es war alles makellos. Weit über den Standard den man in den USA gewohnt ist. Sehr große Zimmer und die Dusche waren super.
Die Qualität des Frühstücks war auch sehr gut. Das Brot war sehr lecker.

Excellent location and beautiful landscaping!
Small bathroom, water went everywhere, and minimal options to hang items.

Close to everything. The sweet treats daily were a plus. Comfortable nice and relaxing..

Beautiful location, modern rooms, quiet, beautiful grounds, great breakroom accessible anytime, fresh croissants in the afternoon. Good water pressure, comfortable bed, good channel selection on TV.
Being nitpicky here: room wasn't cleaned and bed wasn't made after second night - apparently a new housekeeper issue. Water from shower runs into sink/toilet area since there's no threshhold to hold it back. No room to put toiletry bag around sink.

Sauber, großes Zimmer und großzügiges Badezimmer.
Frühstück hätte ergiebiger sein können. Leider keine Rühreier.

The property was amazingly clean and all rooms are remodeled. Beds were comfortable and AC unit was working very quietly. The fresh pastries when we got there and every morning was also a favorite!!!! Would stay and recommend again and again.
Absolutely nothing

We booked deluxe rooms and they are over the to glorious! Spacious - incredible bathroom - beautiful furniture - and very comfortable beds. Easy walking distance to the "sites" of the town and quiet. A perfect choice in Crystal River. Set up breakfast - had high end yogurt, juices, fresh fruit.
It is a perfect place - only the coffee maker a mild disappointment - coffee wasn't too strong
4.7
Clean and comfortable room with excellent shower. The breakfast room and lounge with breakfast supplies, water, ice etc were great. The hotel is ideally situated in the town.
Nowhere to store clothes, no drawers and very little hanging space. Bed has a memory foam mattress, which personally I hate.
4.7
This hotel is amazing! We had a great stay and enjoyed the hotel very much. The fresh baked Croissant’s were delicious!!! Perfect location within walking distance to most restaurants as well as stores and tour companies.
The room could have used and extra shelf to be able to store smaller items but all in all it was not a big deal

Fantastiskt fint och välstädat. Nära till Three sisters spring. Personalen oerhört trevliga, extra plus för goda croissanter på kvällen. Personalen rekommenderade en fiskrestaurang som hade fantastisk god mat!
Inget, allt var bra!

Zimmer war hell und ansprechend eingerichtet. Zimmerbeleuchtung war gut ausgeleuchtet und dimmbar. Fußboden gefliest, somit sehr hygienisch. Klimaanlage und Kühlschrank ohne Geräusche. Super Betten, nicht durchgelegen.Viele Ablagefächen.Duschkopf mit Massagefunktionen.Außenanlage sehr gepflegt und liebevoll angegelegt.Sitzgelegenheiten in der Außenanlage. Genügend Parkmöglich vom Hotel vorhanden. Kaffee, Cappuccino, heißer Kakao und diverse andere Sachen zur freien Verfügung.

Bei der Anlage handelt es sich um ein früheres Motel, dass der Besitzer mit viel Aufwand und Liebe zum Detail umgebaut hat. Die Stellplätze vor den ebenerdigen Zimmern wurden entfernt und durch eine schöne Zuwegung mit großen Blumenbeeten ersetzt. Kostenfreie Parkplätze stehen auf dem zu der Anlage gehörenden Grundstück, was sich auf der gegenüberliegenden Straßenseite befindet, zur Verfügung. Das Frühstück ist gut, es gibt den ganzen Tag kostenlos Tee, Kaffee, Kakao, Milch, Fruchtsäfte, Joghurt und Obst. Die Zimmer sind exklusiv und modern eingerichtet. Fussläufig sind zwei Parks mit Kajak-Verleih-Station sowie Restaurants erreichbar. Die Anlage liegt ruhig und zentral in Crystal River. Absolute Top-Empfehlung.

Waren hier für eine Nacht weil wir mit den Manatees geschwommen sind. Das Hotel ist so nett und mit viel liebe zum Detail. Es gibt eine kleine Lounge, mit Mikrowelle und Wasserspender, Frühstück mit Toast Bagel und Kaffee, an unserer Türe sind 2 frische Croissants gehangen. Das Hotel schliesst gleich an den Kings Bay Park an, sehr zu empfehlen ist ein Ausflug in den Crystal River Preserve State Park. Abendessen unbedingt im ,The Crab Plant.

Central location, cleanliness, asthetic
Lack of storage space for close

Had a great time staying here and loved the location, updated rooms, and pastries baked fresh daily!
Free breakfast with access to the breakfast room at all times. I wish the pastries were baked fresh in the morning instead of given out around 4-5 pm but I get that everyone wakes up at different times and having them ready when you get back to the hotel was still great. I saved mine for breakfast.
Location was perfect, right near Kings bay and the fun2dive tour excursions. Also near to town center and restaurants.
I loved the updated bathroom and the beds were comfy. Cute manatee decor everywhere.
There wasn’t construction ongoing while I was there; just them redoing the gardens and planting.
Would definitely stay here again on my next trip to Crystal River!
Nothing! I had a great experience!

The place is a lovely and charming one. You are located few minutes away from Hunter Springs (where you can see manatees), Saint-Pier Marina (manatees), King's Bay (manatees again!). You are also very close to many good diving centers and from Three Sisters Springs. About the place itself, you will be able to enjoy a very comfy room: bed is large and the mattress felt brand new, the bathrooms is well equipped and clean. On top of all of it, the outisde has small tables and beautiful local plants and the staff we met was always very kind and considerate :) thanks a lot for having us!!
Nothing! Keep on the great work!

Absolutely GORGEOUS! The grounds were stunning! Our rooms were totally updated, modern, and clean! Super efficient and friendly staff! You couldn't ask for a better location! Walk 2 blocks to St. John's Tavern-great, fun atmosphere! Easy walk to The Crab Plant-amazing seafood! And delicious croissants left on our door every day! We will definitely come back!
Nothing! Everything was GREAT!

Hôtel entièrement neuf, tout est au top
Proximité d Explorida 100m à pied pour aller nager avec les Manatees. Cafés et restos dans la même rue. Personnel très sympa.
Petit déjeuner spartiate tout en plastique

For breakfast they had a many fresh baked bread options with lots of different jams available for them. They also had a large selection of teas and a cappuccino machine. The rooms were super clean and very nice. Each room is decorated a different way, which I think adds a lot of character. The bathroom had a spa-like shower, which elevated the experience. The outside was beautifully decorated with lots of nice seating. The hotel was within walking distance to many excellent restaurants and parks. The owner makes and delivers gourmet croissants nightly and you can smell them cooking in the evening, and smells so delicious. Overall, everything was wonderful.
Not applicable, we loved every part of our stay.

Great location, friendly staff, good breakfast , 24 hour coffee, really enjoyed gathering each morning with other guests (quite a few international travelers) in the breakfast room. We appreciated the bicycle/kayak storage room.

Das Hotel lag in Laufnähe zu Restaurants und zu den 3 Sister Quellen.
Sehr gute Internet-Verbindung.
Frische Croissants am Abend.
Es war eine Baustelle.
Einrichtung wirkt sehr zusammengewürfelt.
Bad war sehr klein.
Beleuchtung unbequem. Es gab z. B. keine Nachttischlampe, nur das große Deckenlicht.
4.7
The rooms are very clean and modern. They leave croissants at your door every evening for the next morning. It's is ideally situated to walk around the town, near some nice restaurants, and of course, the manatees.
