Hi, can anyone tell me if the Best Western Crystal River is still there? TripAdvisor doesn't show it.

Thank you!

Good question — I looked into it, and yes, the Best Western Crystal River Resort still exists. Here’s what I found:

  • The address is 614 NW US Highway 19, Crystal River, FL 34428, and the MapQuest listing for that address shows it as “Best Western Crystal River Resort (Open).”
  • The resort’s property description (on a Crystal River travel site) still lists the Best Western Crystal River Resort, describing it as “resort style,” on Kings Bay with a pool and waterfront access.
  • The Better Business Bureau (BBB) lists a “Best Western-Crystal River” with a business profile and phone number (352-795-3171), indicating it’s still operating.

However — there is some nuance:

  • The property appears to operate partially as a “condotel”: some of the units are individually owned, and the complex shares amenities like the pool and lobby.
  • There is a mention in local reporting (Citrus County Chronicle) that after storm damage, parts of the property are being renovated or repurposed.

Bottom line: Yes — the Best Western Crystal River Resort is still listed as open and operational. But it’s a mix of hotel rooms and privately owned units (“condotel”), so when you book, double-check that your reservation is directly with the hotel (or through a platform that confirms the property is active) and confirm which part of the complex you are booking into.
