The Don CeSar
LOVED this hotel. The art deco pink historic vibe is awesome as is the pool, the beach, the unique coffee shop (yay no starbucks) and, restaurants are good albeit a bit pricey. The rooms are a tad small, but the bldg is old, so there is that consideration --- but overall, we LOVED our time spent ...
