2026: 3 Nights Crystal River and 7 Nights Orlando Stay

Situated along the shores of Kings Bay in Crystal River, Paddletail Lodge offers an idyllic escape for nature enthusiasts and relaxation seekers. This charming lodge provides a tranquil oasis away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Step out of your room and immerse yourself in the beauty of the bay, where gentle waves lap against the shore and manatees play in the crystal-clear waters.

Wake up to the soothing sounds of nature and enjoy a cup of coffee on your private balcony or patio. Designed for comfort and tranquillity, each room features modern amenities, including 50-inch TVs, a mini-fridge, microwave, and quality bedding. 

At the heart of the lodge, the Grass Roots Coffee Shop beckons guests with its aromatic brews and delectable treats. Start your day with a freshly brewed coffee or indulge in a pastry while gazing out at the bay. For additional dining options, Paddletail Lodge features three other eateries: Bayside Kraft Kitchen, specialising in Southern coastal cuisine; Waterfront Social, perfect for alfresco dining; and Tiki Bar & Grill.

Beyond a place to stay, the Paddletail Lodge offers leisure and adventure opportunities. Take a refreshing swim in the bayside pool or relax on the sun deck under the Florida sunshine. Unwind in the bubbling hot tub surrounded by lush greenery and serene water views. 

The on-site adventure centre provides a range of activities, including the chance to swim with manatees for a memorable encounter and explore Kings Bay on a boat tour to discover its wildlife and ecosystem secrets. Glide through winding waterways on a kayak to observe herons, turtles, and more, or opt for a pontoon rental to leisurely cruise and admire the natural beauty that surrounds you.
