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!

The Don was fabulous for NYE! While the resort was fully booked, it never felt crowded. The beach and pool accommodations are lovely. I had a massage at the spa which was also great.

Stayed 2 times in the last month. Both times the room had a moldy smell. Had to change rooms but that didn’t really make a difference. Very limited dining choices.

The Don Cesar is a landmark and it was lovely staying there. The ocean view was tremendous. It was unfortunate that none of the room windows open so that you can hear and smell the oceanfront lodging. The hotel itself is a bit "tired," but we're glad that we stayed at this iconic location.

the hotel was very clean and smelled wonderful. The staff was awesome but the beds were terrible!!!!!!! The toilet paper was like sandpaper. Unfortunately it stormed the whole time we were there so the kids were bored but. The pool areas were nice too. Overall, good experience just terrible beds!!!

We enjoyed our stay in room 713. However the mattress needs to be replaced on the bed in that room. It was very sunken in and I ended up having back issues for my stay there. Otherwise the hotel and service are wonderful.
