Hontoon Landing Resort & Marina

We fell in love with this resorts. It is beautiful and in very good condition. The kids lived to watch the Aligators right in front of is in the river and the fish and it was just a nice time there. The pool was also very nice. The only drawback i see is that at night the streets are a bit scatchy and thight. We love that place and i m sure we visit there again.

My family and I had a very nice stay at Hontoon Harbor...we were able to rent a boat for the day for a very reasonable price and the staff was very kind!

This property is very beautiful. It was very disappointing that we had such a bad stay. We had an adjoining room and the walls were paper thin. I could hear the conversations from the room next door clear as day. I got woke up before 6 am both days by children crying. I had to play thunderstorm sounds on my phone to sleep at night. The bed was horribly uncomfortable. The listing says a kitchen in your room, but we didn’t even have a microwave. Just a fridge and coffee pot. There was no table or desk for me to work on my computer, I had to use a bench as a make shift desk. The WiFi is not good service. Definitely don’t choose this place if you are trying to work. Lastly when we booked the room we chose reserve now and pay later. The hotel proceeded to charge a full day at booking that posted, not pending. When I asked Expedia because they told me $0 due now and they told me it was the hotel and they couldn’t help. We needed up switching hotels our last night in town because I just couldn’t do another night of horrible sleep.

1st, The staff were the rudest people I've ever dealt with. I.e. my wife asked for an iron and the woman acted like that was a stupid thing to ask for. I can't do it justice how rude this woman was. 2nd, we booked a room through an internet site (Hotels.com), for a queen bed and a double pull out couch. I needed a big bed for my kids to share. Apparently, the hotel didn't get this info or whatever, and I asked if they could do something. we had to pay extra $$ to get a room that would suffice. It should be noted that this place would have been nearly empty if it were not for us deciding to have family stay together for a funeral. We had at least 8 rooms rented. 3rd, the place was very old and outdated. Kind of a dump. No ice machines, When I asked for cream and sugar for my coffee, you'd think I was asking for a gold nugget.

My whole family stayed out there this past weekend and each room was different and extremely nice. We’re all from DeLand and it is wonderful to see that there isn’t a piece touched by developers out there. True old Florida.

Wonderful place !! It was a great getaway for hubs and I . Quiet , peaceful and the pool was fantastic. Great little deli on property and staff was friendly. Beautiful wildlife and we even saw a baby CROC 🐊
