Girls Trip to Swim with the Manatees

We had an amazing time in Crystal River! The house was beautiful, clean, and had everything we needed. There was a lovely screened in porch just perfect for morning coffee and dock area where we could see crabs and fish. Very close to great restaurants and our tour guides for snorkeling with manatees. Simply wonderful!

Manatee Point

Manatee Point is the perfect location if you want to experience “Old Florida”. We enjoyed the many state parks and springs in the area. Lots to do if you love the outdoors. My family enjoyed kayaking right from our own dock and my grandkids were thrilled to see their first manatee from their kayak. Our host, Tina, thought of every little detail to make our stay comfortable and convenient. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great property!

We loved this house! It was clean and bright, tastefully decorated and comfortable furniture too! The lanai was our favorite place to relax after a day of exploring the trails and parks nearby. We did a boat tour of the river and springs, and visited Homassa Springs Park to see the manatees. We were sad to leave, and look forward to coming back! The only glitch, and it was a minor one, was the discovery of a few bugs in the house. Otherwise, it was perfect!

Great stay and awesome host

The property is as advertised. VERY CLEAN and stocked with anything you might think you need. The host, Tina, was extremely responsive and accomodating. We arrived on Christmas Day, so grocery stores and delivery services weren't open. She offered to receive a delivery at the house the afternoon before arrival, which was a huge help! There was also a welcome gift of snacks and sweets waiting for us when we arrived. Great location, less than a 10 min drive of all our planned activities. We loved wandering around the cute little downtown Crystal River area and ate at some really fabulous restaurants. We loved our visit and would definitely consider staying here again if we ever come back!

The property was exactly as listed, we use Vrbo 6 to 7 times a year for the past 5 years and this one was by far the best stocked, any pot and pan, tissue, blankets down to q-tips, ziplock bags and tinfoil. Tina was always available and very quick to respond. We’ll definitely be returning !

Perfect Vacation Spot

My wife and I stayed here and brought out boat to hang out with the manatees and do some fishing. The dock was perfect and had easy assess to all of the activities. There were even kayaks that we used to visit and swim with the manatees. The property was in excellent condition and exactly as advertised. We use VRBO quite often and this was one of the best properties we have ever stayed at. Our trip was cut short due to Tropical Storm Debbie and our host was in constant contact with us while monitoring the weather and the local advisories. Even though we had to leave early due to the potential of the storm surge, we had an amazing time at this location and would gladly book here again. It truly deserves more than 5 stars.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We had every amenity we needed plus more. The location was quiet and easily accessible.

This home is located on a canal and comes equipped with 2 kayaks, a paddleboard, and a plastic canoe. While the equipment clearly has seen use (bungees at front and back of watercraft no longer complete), the basics are there, which is wonderful! There are also 3 bikes, and everything you need for daily living at the house. Fun for all! Just wish the weather had been warmer while we were there:)
