House was clean and comfortable with nice pool and dock to tie our boat. Lots of counter space in kitchen. Teri was a wonderful host with excellent communication. Driveway is challenging if you have a boat but this was mentioned in the description. Overall would highly recommend!

This was our second year staying at this property, and it continues to exceed expectations. The house is extremely clean, the views are gorgeous, and the location is perfect for quick river access and grabbing supplies. The dock and cleaning station were well maintained and made our days on the water easy. Inside, the beds and blankets were so comfortable—it truly feels like a welcoming home away from home.

What incredible stay at Casa Del Sol. We travel frequently and I always travel with "what I might need". During this visit we needed nothing (hair dryer was needed in master bathroom). Kitchen provided everything we needed including decent fry pans and big pots. All little things were also available from laundry soap, dish washer soap, hand soap, dish soap to name a few kitchen items. House also provided pool towels, and ample bathroom towels for our group of five. All bedrooms had king size beds, so perfect for adult groups. The one bedroom off the master was an adjoining room with sliding doors and required going through the master bedroom to use the bathroom. Home was especially clean and welcoming along with communications prior to our stay with our host. Highly recommend and we will be back

Thank you for the 10/10 review. It is greatly appreciated. I let the housekeepers know that you appreciated the cleanliness of the home and that the home was well stocked. We really do try to think of everything. I looked into the missing blow dryer and it was located. It should have been there for your stay, and I assure you that it will be there for your next stay. Thanks again.

Teri was super easy to communicate with and quickly addressed any issues we shared with her. While she can’t control the weather, our weather was perfect during our stay. The access to the Gulf and springs was very convenient by boat. Boat docking was sufficient for two boats. The pool was clean which we enjoyed daily. The kitchen had lots of utensils and our family divided those duties so not everyone had to cook each night! Perfect stay!! Our second at Casa del Sol. Hopefully we’ll be back!!!

The house and location is a dream come true. Clean, neat, spacious for our family. The pool was clean and plenty of sitting/tanning area. The dock area was clean and well taken care of. Our last morning ended with 3 surprise visitors as I was sitting at the dock. Two manatees and a dolphin came by to show off for a while. It was perfect! Highly recommend!!

The view is perfect. Deep water lagoon is great for fishing off the dock.

Beds were very comfortable, the pool was a great touch. The location is quiet but easily accessible to town. Very easy for our fishing guide to pick us up right off the dock since it’s so close to King’s bay.

Fishing Guide! You did it right! Crystal River and the Nature Coast is known for its inner coastal fishing waters. People come from all over the world to fish our waters. Hopefully you caught a nice big Red Fish, a few Sea Trout or even a Snook. All are great game fish and wonderful to eat!
