Beach House Suites by The Don Cesar

St Pete Beach, Tampa and Clearwater/St Pete

Virgin rating

The hotel

The cool little sister to the famous The Don CeSar Hotel, Beach House Suites gives you access to all the luxuries of the main hotel, with the sumptuousness of a more secluded all-suite beach retreat. Taking its inspiration from the sands, this seaside sanctuary offers beach life in abundance, with a shorefront pool, ‘sun and surf’ activities and beach games. Its poolside tiki bar provides sunbathing snacks, but you also get full access to the dining and drinking venues at The Don CeSar Hotel, including its ice cream shop; The Rowe Bar, with coastal cuisine and cocktails served on a deck over sand dunes; and Maritana Grille, voted one of USA Today’s 10 best restaurants.

We had a lovely time at the Beach House Suites. The service provided by Fabian and Alex was top notch! The suite was spacious and comfortable for a family of four, and the views were spectacular. All the comforts of home, and we stepped out our door right onto the beach....what could be better??

We are just returning to the UK after a 2 week visit. I have given four stars as the rooms badly require renovating which we were informed should hopefully take place this year.

The rest of our stay was excellent, the shuttle was great and using both resorts (Don) made for a great vacation. All staff that we met were extremely courteous and polite especially young Anthony on reception. He is a real gem and will go far if he stays within the hospitality industry. Read less

Awesome stay. I didn't like the bedroom was right by the outside hallway, not sure if all the rooms are like this but check if that might be an issue. We slept fine and it was not an issue. I did see ant in the shower but not outside the shower. Overall we will be BACK! Read less

Great rooms, great resort, beautiful beach! Staff is courteous and helpful, the free shuttle connects you to ‘The Don’, local restaurants, and most importantly back to the resort when you’re ready - making driving and Ubers unnecessary! Fabian and Alex provide EXCEPTIONAL service managing the umbrellas and beach-beds. They met every need, even checking in throughout the day to make adjustments as the sun moves across the sky! All while the Sand Dollar Bar staff battle the sun and sand to make sure you are perfectly hydrated while soaking in the sun. Can’t say enough wonderful things about the resort, every need was met from top to bottom. We will definitely be going back! Read less

Had our first visit at the Beach House Suites and won't be our last. Loved the laid back, quiet vibe. Beach was absolutely beautiful. Chairs always available at both beach and pool. Lawn games kept our teenagers busy. Easy walk to the Don Cesar to get a coffee, ice-cream, dinner or paddle boards & kayaks. Shopped at Publix to stock up on breakfast/lunch items to utilize the suite amenities (fridge, toaster, keurig, microwave) . Many thanks to Anthony & Charlie at the front desk for helping us getting in our room a bit earlier and a later check out. Alex was amazing- always available to set up our chairs on the beach. Justin was so friendly and the shuttle van was a definite perk. We can't wait to get back!! Read less
