Still in the middle of remodeling after hurricane. No hot tub. Working!! One building open and everyone crammed in that building. Kids running around past 2 am. No one to call. Poor construction. Can hear someone peeling and talking like they are in your room !! Indian guy took over and fired staff Used to be a beautiful place

The property is under construction, but still a wonderful stay. The rooms are large and extremely clean with no carpet in the rooms. Love this! We enjoyed our stay this year and we'll be staying here next year.

The Plantation Hotel is a very unique property with a lot of charm. The pool was excellent and one of the highlights of my stay. Although many of the other amenities were closed due to ongoing renovations, it's easy to see that the property has great potential and will be beautiful once the work is completed.
The biggest disappointment was the lack of drinking water. There was no complimentary water in the room, and the front desk didn't even have bottled water available for purchase. While I was at the pool, I walked to the front desk hoping to buy a bottle of water, but instead I was told to use a vending machine that was about 400 feet away. Having to make that walk in a swimsuit was inconvenient and unnecessary. Offering bottled water at the front desk would greatly improve the guest experience, especially during the renovations.

Property is still going through renovations and repairs and is open in a limited capacity as their website said. Pool is open but restaurant and poolside bar are still closed and there are only two buildings that are open for guests to stay in. It feels like the property was rushed to be reopened. They offer a continental breakfast in the lobby area. Staff said repairs won’t be done until mid to late next year. Hard to justify the current pricing for the state of the property. I love this place but will not be back until all the work is completed.

When we arrived to our room, the AC wasn't working so the manager immediately found us another room, the cafe was under renovation, so no breakfast served, although they did offer some items, overall, very nice room and very helpful and accommodating staff made the stay a pleasant one!

We had a very pleasant two nights stay during which we were at the hotel limited amount of time, mainly to sleep. The check-in and check out staff were very friendly and helpful, the breakfast attendant was very cordial and congenial. However, the breakfast is a limited continental style breakfast and is really nothing to brag about. The property was severely damaged after a recent hurricane and is only partially reopened, but the part that is reopened is new and very nice. The Fountain at the front of the hotel is a landmark and is very beautiful. I was glad to see it running again. Overall, if you’re just in the area to do other activities it’s a wonderful place to stay, but if you plan on using it as a full service resort, it is still a little short of that goal.

The hotel is under renovation. It’s a room to spend the night. Excellent location for local attractions and great manatee, fishing and scalloping tours on site. The continental breakfast was not worth waking up for.

Our villa was great spacious clean comfortable
Missing was coffee, dish detergent and sponge
All restaurants were closed due to reinvention no tiki bar no activity help
Front desk was great everything was out of there hands. We paid full price for more than half of the perks. I understand there for sale, I suggest lower your price till ALL AMENITIES are in place.

As a long time repeat customer we were greatly disappointed. Nothing was open and continental breakfast left a lot to be desired. We found a worm and a bug in coffee cup from breakfast and found the first floor room very loud in stairwell and noise from room above on second floor. There was also a smell of mold in hallway where store was previously located. Very disappointed.

It’s diabolical that they are even allowing people to stay here. The place was trashed 2 years ago from a hurricane. They haven’t done much to fix it. Them accepting guests is a total money grab!

Pros: The pool is nice and the staff are nice. The adventure center is also awesome with extremely friendly staff. You can bring your boat here, launch for $10, store your trailer on site and dock your boat here. It’s pretty cool. You can view manatees from the property.

Cons: The place is not functional. Even the Rose Building that they are operating is hardly functional. The rooms are nice and clean, but there is ZERO noise reduction. You can hear your neighbors having a casual conversation. People are having parties in their rooms into the early morning hours and extend it out into the hallway where is echoes all around. It’s extremely loud. Since they aren’t operating the front desk after 10 PM, there is no one to talk to about noise and parties. So if you value sleeping, don’t stay here.

No restaurant, no bar, no towel service, might as well not even have a “continental breakfast”. The grounds have not really been kept up. Any images you see one here, it’s not accurate.

Their website and Expedia are false advertising. They are loosing return customers by not being forthcoming. Way too expensive for what it is, such a money grab!

The property grounds are beautiful, the rooms are a little outdated. I also booked a room for 5 and it said it slept 5 but there were just two full size beds and a chair that did not recline so we had to go buy an air mattress. There is still A LOT of hurricane damage, and the only building in use is the one furthest from the lobby. The included breakfast was pastries, cereal, oatmeal and bagels/bread. No fruit or protein. For the price we paid I’d consider staying here again, there was nothing bad about the stay, just very average. Nothing that wowed me except for the potential the grounds had. There are so many amazing things they could do with it, it truly is a diamond in the rough, hopefully they can polish it up!

This hotel was ok. Pros- bed/bedding was comfortable, free parking, pool temp was perfect. Cons- Room said sleeps 5 so I thought there would be a pullout couch but there were just 2 full beds. There's 1 chair so it's hard for a family to hang out in the room. Towels are not at the pool and there isn't a bathroom at the pool. The continental breakfast doesn't have any hot food. The TVs didn't work and mini fridge was very loud. Also, not sure if this is an expedia issue but I booked 2 rooms at the same time but we ended up in rooms at different ends of the building, again, hard for family to hang out in the hotel which was the main point of our trip.

Unknown to all - this Resort is under major renovation ... since last JULY. It's now end of March.. I asked why no info on their website that is obvious and why Hotels.com website had zero info re this renovation. No restaurants (supposed to be 3); no Tiki Bar outside; No hot breakfast as promised as no restaurants (only given muffins, bagels, OJ, coffee only) . Disappointed,,, One building is open for guests....that is all at the moment. Urge one to make certain renovations are finished before booking.

When we arrived we were informed that they were renovating the facility. We were told they were replacing windows and that the crews would start at 8 am. We were then informed that the restaurant and bar were closed.

They did start replacing windows the next day and were banging and making a LOT of noise with drills.

We opened the back door to our room to get fresh air. My sister had her service dog with her and the dog would bark when they were banging and making noise drilling. She barked maybe 6 times.

We received a call from the front desk asking about the dog. My sister informed them she is a service animal and offered to bring her service animal paperwork for them to see. They said that wasn't necessary. We were booked in to the hotel for 2 nights. On the second day (my sister's birthday) the management called me and told me we were being evicted because the dog was barking. I explained the dog barked because of the banging and drilling from the window replacement. The management did NOT care and they actually kicked us out of the hotel. I told the front desk I wanted a FULL refund for the night we were missing. They said they would refund Expedia and I would need to get my refund from Expedia.

We had to change hotels and pay $356 for the night of my sister's birthday.

All in all this was a terrible experience!!!

It's trying!!!! It looks like it truly has seen better days but, it was a last minute decision for us as we traveled through the area.
The price was very good and at one time, the property must have really been beautiful. Unfortunately, the buildings are out dated, and the construction is also.

When I say, they are trying, it's because you can tell that they are trying to spruce the place up. New flooring, new windows (in some areas).

The hotel itself is multiple buildings and they only had one that they are using at this time. Everything in the common areas was dirty. Stains in the main hallway that could have easily been mopped up but were there when we checked in and there when we checked out.

The sound echoed throughout the rooms and hallways. You could hear the people talking in the room next door, toilets flushing, etc.

No modern features for electronics like USB ports in the plugs or lights.

The room we had, did not have new windows and there was mold all over the outside of them.

I was told by a neighboring business that they hotel was recently sold to a major chain and they will be coming in and redoing the entire thing.

If that is true, they will have one absolutely stunning property

If it weren't for the onsite Manatee tour, we would have checked out before even going to our (filthy) room.

The pool was a hole in a concrete slab with extreme construction noise (generators, large trucks hauling and dumping dumpsters for hours, etc.) and a hot tub that was scalding in areas, no food or drinks (not even a convenience or counter) were available other than the continental b-fast that we were told was to be offered but after looking around, we knew we were not going to eat anything that came out of there!

Our room seemed ok at first glance (thankfully the bedsheets appeared clean),but overall, it was truly disgusting upon a closer look and positively filthy. We were in a \"renovated\"? area of the hotel that was purely just lipstick on a pig.

The stairwell smelled like a wet dog and the wall behind our nightstand/beds was solid black from spilled who-knows-what. Though our floors were not carpet, our feet were still black from just one evening.

Additionally, the lock to the adjoining room door didn't lock fully, and there are no locks on the building doors or pool access areas for guest security.

I would make your manatee tour a day trip and stay elsewhere. (The tour was wonderful, by the way - the price, location and staff make it a fantastic experience that I highly recommend).

We were booked for 2 nights and left immediately after our manatee tour. This wasn't even worth the super discounted rate I received through Expedia using travel points.

For now, our room was clean and remodeled, and parking was easily available. It is close to everything in both Crystal River and Homasassa, and we definitely plan to go back to visit again once their renovations are complete. We would definitely recommend...the property they are situated on is absolutely gorgeous and surrounded by waterways.

Window in room had black areas on the glass, could hardly see through the clouded glass. Cobwebs on ceiling, air return filter was gray with dust and very over due for change. Doors were spotted with various colored remains from previous guests. HVAC registers and sprinkler systems were excessively rusted. They ran out of coffee during morning continental breakfast. Just not what I was expecting from previous reviews, especially from website description. Positive was linens were clean. Staff provided towels so we could use the pool before check in.

At 12:38 a.m. I sat up to go to the bathroom, and before I could put my feet on the floor, the side of the mattress caved in with me and I sat flat on the floor, hurting my back and hitting my arm and head on the sharp corner of the bedside table. The next morning, I limped down to the office and told them about my injuries. The desk clerk took a report and told me I would be hearing from those in authority by phone or email. I was leaving on a cruise, so intermittently, I checked for both calls and emails--crickets. When I returned on Friday, I called them to find out why I had not heard from them and asked for a call. Nothing. Saturday, I made a complaint online to the Better Business Bureau. Sunday, I got a call from the female manager who was extremely rude, hostile, and cold. She said she had it on her calendar to call me on Monday. She then asked what I \"wanted from them\". I said I wanted them to acknowledge that I had filed a report of an injury on their property, and for them to act like they cared in the least for that fact.
I do want to add, that while I was in the lobby getting breakfast after I reported my injury, another guest came in and he told the desk clerk that the beds were \"worn out\".
The manager had told me that she had checked out the bed I was sleeping in and that it was not broken. The thought came to me of how did she know which bed I slept in, as there were two beds in the room.
I will NEVER stay at this place again. Not recommended
