AI Summary
The hotel provides exceptional service, beautiful beach and pool areas, and a prime waterfront location. However, some guests felt it was overpriced given its age and amenities.

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!
