"The room was clean and comfortable. The service requests were answered by text. That did not make it more convenient, because after I phoned in a request for an iron, before I left, I still had to request an iron when I got there. Also the elevator was out of service or maybe there was no elevator and I had to carry my luggage up to the second floor after a long and exhausting flight. Food is excellent. Overall it was a great stay."

The Don CeSar

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, attentive staff worth the money!"

Island Grand at TradeWinds

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the paddle boats, duck feeding time, the water slide on the beach, the pools, and restaurant choices (the pizza was excellent). Having a kitchenette with 2 kids is a huge benefit!"

Beach House Suites by the Don CeSar

8/10 Good

"The place was very nice, but wish there were better dining options onsite and wish the pool was a bit larger. BEWARE of being blamed for smoking on balconies if your next door neighbors are the culprits. That was a major issue we encountered while staying. They tried to bill us the $400 cleaning fee. Otherwise, was a nice stay."

10/10 Excellent

"The owner on-site was kind and helpful! The location was convenient and centrally located. We used the beach chairs, umbrella and float at the beach which was just steps away! We also used the complementary bikes to cruise around the area. The room had everything needed for our stay with fresh towels provided each morning. The hotel and area were both dog friendly. Will definitely be returning!"
