    Beautiful area, with a lot to explore.

    Beautiful area, with a lot to explore. My schedule only allowed 1/2 day. I would recommend visiting mid-week, NOT during Spring break. I rented a kayak for 3 hours from Hunter Springs Kayaks (highly recommend them!), with the intention of swimming with manatees. I only saw 1 manatee while swimming, plus a couple more from the kayak, since it was late in the season for seeing manatees. Next time I'll plan on visiting earlier in the season, midweek

    Crystal River is an adorable little beach town full of nature loving people, artists, veterans, and retirees. We had a wonderful time there snorkeling with manatees, boating, kayaking, and exploring Heritage Village. Highly recommended for a long weekend trip.

    Three sisters spring was very nice saw a lot of manatees and the trails were nice. Parking was limited. Kayak rental was pricey and not worth it. We did see manatees but the bay was crowded the water murky until you got near the springs. Would not recommend kayaking in the bay and channels. There are much better places to kayak . If you love seafood eat at the Crab Plant. Casual dining with great food and a big variety of fresh caught seafood.

    Crystal River is the most beautiful little town we have ever visited. Everything is manatee-themed, even down to some of the streetlights! There are lots of things to do, especially if you love nature and wildlife. Scalloping, hiking, swimming with manatees, and kayaking just to name a few. There are also lots of great dining options available, especially the seafood! It is a cultural hotspot as well, with lots of murals, galleries, museums, and historical sites to see. We will definitely be back and hope to stay longer next time.

    The best birthday vacation.

    The best birthday vacation. Main goal was to snorkel with manatees. Was able to pack a lot of activities into each day since towns are so close together. The best place for outdoor activities and water activities. Lots of history. Many parks and trails for walking. hiking, or biking. The locals are so nice and engaging. They make you feel welcome, and the few times I drove anywhere I did not encounter impatient or rude drivers. They just move around you and ignore the pokey tourist. Such a nice place to visit and they make you feel safe there. And lots of fresh seafood!

    Everything about the Retreat was perfect.. The staff was very friendly and went above and beyond. The rooms and the entire property were gorgeous. We enjoyed the seating area outside of our rooms while having coffee in the mornings and while unwinding in the afternoons. The Retreat is walking distance from the downtown area which has shopping and restaurants. We lucked up and got to attend the "First Friday" event in Crystal River. Loved the small town atmosphere. We felt safe walking and KIngs Bay is just behind the property.

    Got to the hotel early d/t poor timing. For a little bit of extra money staff checked us into our room early, made sure we had everything we needed, and checked in on us throughout our stay. Staff were personable, kind, prompt, and made sure my daughters had an excellent stay. Hotel was centrally located to all springs and rivers in the area. Hotel was very clean, rooms were big, and beds/pillows were comfy. Breakfast was great loved the hot food, waffles, and cold substations. Will be staying here again.

    Absolutely everything. I do travel a lot, and this is the best place I’ve ever been. Crystal River is amazing and what you need is to have this house with its private dock in the garden. We could go kayaking everyday to explore the area, we discovered the neighborhood thanks to the bikes… Everything was perfect for us. The beds were very comfortable too, and we got the chance to enjoy the sun in the garden. Without any doubt, just go to this place if you want to spend the best time in Crystal River.

    Hotel is nice but old and in need of some DIY and some new sheets for the bed. Despite that, there were towels, shampoo, conditioner, soap, plus breakfast available the next morning. The biggest selling point is that every room has a balcony or porch so you can enjoy some sundowners while soaking up the wildlife in the bay. I loved staying here and the staff were so lovely.

    Everything you’d expect from an Econolodge. A smoky cigarette haze to the room, a strong sewer smell in the bathroom, a squeaky bed & an inoperable ice machine. But, the A/C was ice cold, the fridge was clean & working perfectly, the showers were nice & hot, and they are the best rate in Crystal River.

    Absolutely fantastic. I arrived late by accident and the manager drove in, let me in, gave me the tour, and was incredibly enthusiastic about his property. I was given pastries and shown my room. Of all the places in crystal river, this was by far the best. Quiet, clean, tucked away, and modern.

    This was our 3rd stay at The Port Hotel and Marina. The location is everything here. We could sit on our patio and watch the manatees all day in Kings Bay. The views of the Bay here are the best I've ever seen. Love it!!!
