Plantation Resort on Crystal River
"The resort is under construction because of a hurricane 2 years ago. Room was clean but no soap in kitchen, no paper towels, and no coffee. Room was not serviced as our trash overflowed. Definitely would have liked to have known that the place was under renovation before we booked."
