The Best Western Crystal River Resort specializes in family resort fun. Relax and enjoy all the pleasures of Florida sun, major attractions, and beautiful beaches. Crystal River is located in the middle of the Nature Coast on the west coast of Florida about 80 miles from Tampa, Orlando and Gainesville. Easy driving distance from all major airports and all central Florida attractions or dive destinations. Gentle manatees take harbor in the warm waters of Kings Bay. Guests can relax in our swimming pool and whirlpool, or order a refreshing beverage at our Tiki bar and watch the sunset. Nature lovers are invited to rent a canoe, or take a sightseeing tour on an airboat or pontoon boat. Water enthusiasts come each October through March to encounter manatees that frequent our warm spring waters. Divers gather to challenge the deep water springs or nearby Rainbow River, and master certification. Fishermen quietly wait and see what today's catch will be. Many reflect on the natural beauty of the salt marshes, mangrove swamps and native birds.[less]
