We have been going to the Don CeSar for 15 years. We like to refer to this as “our place“. We absolutely love it. The beach is not crowded and the beauty of the Pink Palace is unmatched. We have noticed over the years that some things have changed for the better, and some things for the worse, but overall, the  integrity of the Don has remained intact. Highly recommend!

Excellent stay. The beach access is top notch. The restaurant service could use some work. Other than that amazing time! Will definitely be going back.

Remember they are in Hurricane Recovery. So not great stuff first: 3rd Fl Room is dated, dusty bed frame, fridge didn't work, but all good outlets there. No dresser for 2nd person, toilet lid would not stay up. Pink cards wouldn't work. Pool staff oblivious. TG for Hospitality Dir Quinn! Excellent service w/o judgement. Valet req but quick. The prices will seem high but the pools, cocktails, food, and beach are excellent. The gift shop had a salesperson who had been there for 30+. She made our day. Leave it to the gal from Queens, our Brazillian barista, and NJ girl waitstaff. Bless you all. Pink Palace, we will stay again!

I rarely am blown away by a property, this is absolutely the case with The Don. From service to the rooms, it's perfect every time.

There was a nest of ants inside our coffee machine. They replaced the coffee maker but left the ant infested coffee maker in our room causing our clothes and luggage to have ants all over and inside.

The hotel overall is beautiful and luxurious. Staff was enjoyable and courteous. However front desk gave us several different answers to the same question, causing a few hours of drama we don't need or appreciate. The rooms are small but stylish and comfortable. Very loud air conditioning. Also very big weddings and corporate groups hosting here at night. Lobby can be very loud. Inconsistent housekeeping, no service provided on our last full day. But otherwise they came 1 -2 x day. Expedited elevator buttons , so you're not waiting for and elevator, really good idea. Restaurant by pool was average ,Peter our server for breakfast was excellent and friendly. The pool only has one bathroom stall for hundreds of customers, the line was very long at times. Directly on a flat clean beach with chair and umbrellas included in the room rate. Overall upscale, but pricey when you add up all the fees for parking, resort, automatic gratuities and overpriced drinks and restaurants $32.00 + tip for 2 small coffee and 2 Danish. We had a lovely time, but didnt feel this place was worth the cost.
