The staff at Don CeSar is simply amazing. Everyone is beyond helpful and extremely pleasant. The facilities are spotless. We checked in for four days and never left the hotel. Everything we wanted was there and more. The private beach is pristine. We were there to celebrate my father's 92nd birthday and everyone treated him like a king. He navigated the areas easily. We had a junior suite and it was perfect because it had a lovely seating area where we could order room service in the morning. The pool area had two pools and had games and crafts three times a day. Trivia was at 3 PM and the staff made it so much fun. Cannot say enough nice things . We will return as soon as we can.

The property was nice however the booking showed in the attached picture that it was an ocean front room, however I received a garden view room. the upgrade to ocean view was an extra $100 per night. There was no choice at the time of booking for ocean view versus non ocean view. I am not sure who is at fault Expedia or the Hotel
