We booked here while traveling via AAA. Found the location to be a perfect spot to take a break before continuing on to Sanibel. We enjoyed Crystal River and Homasassa so much that we spent two nights here instead of the planned upon one. The location is great - right off the highway and close to local attractions and restaurants.... More

If you're going to go swimming with Manatees, this is a close, clean, comfortable, and mostly quiet place to stay. Breakfast was as expected and the personnel at the front desk was professional, informative and pleasant. More

I was pleasantly surprised at how clean and comfortable this room was. The carpet was clean. The bathroom was spotless. Bed perfect. The remote control was even in a sanitizer- love it! I couldn't believe it was in better condition than the Embassy Suites I came from in Orlando. Breakfast was fine- waffles plus continental. The staff was very friendly... More

Wanted to stay on the water. The rooms were not directly on the water but close - a walk through or around the pool IF you paid a little more for the "river wing". The rooms were clean and comfortable. Loved the sanitized remote. A bit overpriced though. We had a nice 1 night stay accept when the one time... More

IF you had a boat or were going diving, that would be the only reason to pay such high rates for a Motel. It was clean, the room ONLY OK and the staff were nice. But that was overshodowed by the fact that it was only a motel on a busy road with lots of traffic noise. More

The rooms have been updated since I was there 4 years ago and while not luxury by any means they are comfortable for a very old motel. The location is great and you have a very good restaurant next door with Crackers. If going out on a boat I'd suggest somewhere else as their's are very old and if you... More

We arrived late and the front desk was very helpful and friendly - they suggested we eat at Crackers (about 300 feet away) and it was perfect. Rooms are clean and functional (nice shower head). We drove from Orlando Airport and stayed just one night - just long enough to do the early morning (615AM!!) Manatee tour with Bird's Underwater... More

We stayed here for a night on our way to Tampa, and were especially impressed with the friendly professionalism of the staff. As far as road side motels go, this is clearly one of the best. There were no weaknesses or unpleasant surprises, and we were left with the impression that the staff clearly cares about their guests. More

We had a great weekend away at this hotel. We love this location because it is right on the water with a boat ramp and restaurant with tiki bar right next door. We can park and walk anywhere we want to go. The staff is really friendly and the other guests are a fun bunch. Breakfast is included which is... More
