Guests of The Don Cesar Hotel are often awed by the Gulf views, pristine beaches and over-the-top swimming pools. They also enjoy being a part of history at what is affectionately known as "The Don" or "The Pink Palace." The nine-story Mediterranean Revival landmark property opened as a celebrity hotspot in 1928. It boasts expansive terraces, lushly landscaped grounds and a grand marble lobby.
The property sits on a seven-mile stretch of ivory-sand Gulf coast beach. Its 277 accommodations range from standard rooms with beach-inspired decor to luxurious suites. All are furnished with plush beds and spacious work desks with ergonomic chairs. The daily resort fee covers a variety of services, including yoga classes, a kids' day camp, and shuttle service. Three on-site restaurants, entertainment bars, an indulgent spa/salon, two beachfront pools, a 24-hour fitness center, a business center and a shopping arcade are some of the many amenities. Valet parking is available for a fee, and pets are welcome also for a fee.
Tucked on a southern sliver of pristine St. Pete Beach, the hotel is just a five-minute drive from quaint Pass-a-Grille, home to funky galleries, fun shops and an ultra laid-back attitude. If you're looking for a true escape, Fort De Soto, voted America's best beach, is a 20-minute excursion. St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport is 19 miles away and Tampa International Airport is 27 miles from the property.
