Amazing venue!

Used the Plantation for my wedding ceremony on 5/22 since they had a beautiful spot with a gazebo right next to the water. It was actually my first time staying at the hotel, and it was definitely a great experience for my guests who stayed there as well. The rooms were clean, beds were comfortable, and the pool was pristine, hallways weren't loud at night, and all the staff we encountered were friendly and professional.
The Tiki Bar is a great place to hang out and unwind, especially after a long day of running around doing wedding stuff. Drinks were a little pricey, but the service was excellent and we all had a great time. I can't remember the names of the 2 bartender ladies, but they kept those drinks coming and you get your money's worth!
I must absolutely give a shout out to one particular person here. Ms. Kristine was the wedding/event coordinator for the Plantation, and I hope they realize what a wonderful Event Coordinator she is and never let her go. I have heard of Fairy Godmothers in children's stories, but I certainly got my own when Kristine helped me with the entire wedding/ceremony experience. I thought it was going to be a stressful experience, but I really had nothing to stress about since she took care of my flowers, coordinating my bridal party, working with the officiant, putting out my favors, decorating the gazebo, fluffing my dress, and even sent up some snacks the next morning. I was extremely impressed after I found out she did all this for me, and still had 2 other ceremonies after my wedding to do as well. Just booking this venue for Kristine alone is so worth it since there is no drama, stress, or details left undone when you have a great coordinator who has your back.
For all the brides on a budget, you can still get this amazing Ceremony site and not break the bank. It was worth it to me to pay a little extra to decorate the gazebo and chairs with the Plantation's stuff, but you can customize anything you want and know it will look absolutely gorgeous. Plus Kristine has great working relationship with a lot of the local vendors in the area so she kept up and communicated with them on my behalf if they had questions about the day.
I only live about 10 minutes away from the hotel, but will definitely book them again for a stay-cation and just relax by the pool. Can't find a better place in Crystal River, that is for sure!
