"We just finished our week stay at the Don. I’ve vacationed here several times as a kid and my husband and I stayed here in 2020 during COVID. The good: The Don is a historical landmark with some awesome history. You’re paying to stay at the “Pink Palace”. The service here should get a 10/5. From the beach attendants to wait staff at the Rowe bar and bartenders at the pool bar, we had amazing service everyday we were here. They really go above and beyond to ensure you are comfortable and have your needs met. The 2 pools were our favorite. Included in your resort fees are chairs and umbrellas at both the pool and beach. Fair warning, get to the pool early (no later than 9) to ensure you get an umbrella/chairs as they fill up quick. We ate dinner at the Rowe Bar on our first night here and it was delicious. I had the crab risotto and it was the best meal I had during our entire stay! The pool attendants were SO nice! Room for improvements: While the interior common areas are beautiful the rooms left some room for improvements. Our room and bathroom were small. That didn’t bother me considering the age of the hotel. Our sheets had stains on them but housekeeping came promptly to change them. Housekeeping on other days was a hit or miss. They either come super early or super late in the afternoon. The room appeared clean but lots of paint was chipping and needed sprucing up. For what you pay I just feel like rooms should be kept up better. They redid the rooms from our last stay and they are nice. Parking and resort fees are a bit steep but that comes with a historical and well known hotel. Overall the Don is a great place to stay. It’s got something for everyone! Lots of kid activities and lots of opportunities for adults. We will be back for sure."
