Beach House Suites by The Don Cesar

St Pete Beach, Tampa and Clearwater/St Pete

Star 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.

Anthony Valentine was a huge help to me this morning…customer service with a smile really doesn’t define the experience…not to get into too much detail but he was truly helpful and would recommend working with him directly in the future! Thank you so much Anthony for your help!
