St. Petersburg - Clearwater hotel rooms a the Independent

"All around great !"

"Upon check-in I was upgraded to a first floor room with direct access to the beach. The room had been fully renovated following the devastating hurricanes of 2025. As such, the room looked fresh. We ate at Sloppy Joe's which is a hotel restaurant on premises and watched the sunset each day. Very enjoyable visit."

"Great place truly amazing "

"Due to renovations, there was excess foot traffic by our room going to Jimmy B’s. There were many available rooms on other side of resort that would have been quieter. "

"Room was clean had a slight musty smell nothing you couldn’t handle. Was cleaned daily and got 6 of us jus perfectly "

"I had a wonderfull time! Definitely I will come back next time👍"

"I did not take breakfast now."

"All the above were great"

"We stayed here for 5 nights with our 5 month old baby for a little R&R away from the northeast. We are so happy we chose The Don. It is an interesting and beautiful historic property right on a gorgeous beach with pools and several nice spots to eat and drink on site. The place is well managed and we felt very well take care of. From day 1, what made our experience were the wonderful people who work throughout the resort. Special shoutouts to Diana, the server at The Rowe Bar who gave us helpful tips on things to check out in the area, Jackie who kept the drinks and good vibes coming at the pool, and Yven and Jeckson from the coffee and gelato bar. The housekeeping staff were all super friendly and took great care of the room everyday. Dennis and the valet and bell teams got us in and out efficiently whenever we stepped out. We were able to get into St Pete to visit the Pier area a few nights and it was a very short drive. The list of excellent people working here goes on and on. We would definitely recommend The Don and would love to come back."
