“Loving our stay here in a spacious suite. I have slept better here than I have in years! We had dinner out in the courtyard. The redfish was locally sourced and delicious. The soft shell crab was very good according to my friend. It’s a quirky place to stay, but very well run. Love the breakfast delivered in the morning.“

“Delicious food and good service. We tried some fried pickles (so good), some burgers and a Cuban sandwich. It was all delicious. The Cuban was my favorite. Thank you to our server, Alexis.“

“Our experience was amazing at the Postcard Inn! I had 10 girl friends come into town for my Bachelorette Party and this stay was perfect for our group! The rooms were comfortable and the hotel amenities made the trip a breeze! With a restaurant, bar, and coffee shop on site we didn’t have to go far to have a great time! The pool and cabana experience was just what we wanted!“

“honestly the best restaurant at the whole resort. the food is amazing. the wings are truly grilled, not just roasted and thrown on a plate. I had the coastal chicken tenders and I am going to spend the rest of my life trying to recreate that dipping sauce, it's that good. their service is amazing, when my boyfriend was feeling sick they helped me out to get some plain bread to help settle his stomach. they're super accommodating of allergies for us. this is probably the only restaurant we're eating at more than once in our stay“

“Food, atmosphere, service...owners are awesome!!!!“

“Ever since I first saw the Don CeSar, I knew I wanted to get married at the historic hotel for it’s grand appearance and beautiful décor. From the moment we toured the hotel to our wedding weekend, the Don CeSar was nothing short of amazing to work with for our destination wedding. Despite being closed for 6 months due to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, the Don CeSar General Manager, Barbara, and the Director of Events, Kasey, had open communication and made the entire wedding planning experience as seamless as possible. They were compassionate, caring, and did everything in their power to make sure the hotel and its courtyard was reopened (and in great condition!) in time for our wedding. (We were the first wedding back the weekend of hotel’s reopening.) Kasey, Barbara, the hotel staff, and the hotel banquet team (chefs, servers, and bartenders) went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was the best day of our lives. We truly received a royal experience as the bride and groom. Additionally, the hotel and its staff made sure that our guests were properly accommodated. Every single one of our guests were impressed by the hotel staff’s amazing top tier service and had nothing but great things to say about the hotel. When it came to the actual wedding day, the banquet team provided first class service. They even accommodated unexpectedly moving our cocktail hour indoors due to rain without missing a beat. The banquet chef prepared an impressive meal to perfection for our 180 guests. One guest even made sure to comment that it was “the best filet and salad” they had ever had. The pastry chef, Amanda, also prepared a cake that was a rendition of my grandmother’s 1950's wedding cake. The spectacular appearance and taste well exceeded our expectations. The servers and bartenders were nothing short of amazing as well. There were no lines to get a drink, and each server was very attentive. My planner, florist, and rental companies had zero issues working with the venue to set up the grand ballroom. The band/violinist were able to perform without any issues. Our wedding day/weekend was truly perfect and the Don CeSar made it memorable and beyond anything I could’ve ever dreamed of. I would highly recommend this wedding venue to any newly engaged couple looking for the best beach wedding experience. There is nothing else quite like the Don CeSar.“

“Great staff!!! Large menu. Well prepared food!“

“I had a great time at Bongo’s last week. The cocktail menu is creative and you can’t beat being right on the beach.“

“the bands on Monday and wednesday“

“Great beach bar! Beautiful sunsets. A perfect stop on any walk on the beach.“

“Best ice cream ever ! We always stop by when we are at the beach .“

“I was there for my birthday and I had a great time the ambiance was great and our waitress was so pleasant her name is Jeanae. I enjoyed talking to her.“

“THIS IS A MAJOR BALTIMORE RAVENS SPOT lol but these Cleveland Brown fans had a nice visit and great tasting meal! Weather was terrible outside us locals were driving around and popped in to get out of the storm. Sat up at the bar area, plenty of seating and comfortable and Miss Katie served us. She was pleasant, bubbly, and a continuous smile on her face and what a hard worker! She moved to the area from Baltimore just a month ago Said was a great place to wrk and settle into as many of the employees have done similar. We teased a bit saying our eyes were sore a bit having to look at all of this purple and black NFL paraphernalia, but we did enjoy entering the restaurant and stomping up the stairs to its second floor on carpet lined steps all decked out in ravens lol! Please note this restaurant is located on the second floor, including covered outdoor patio seating but for those needing assistance elevator, also gets you up to the top. Spouse pleased with the local craft beer selections, and the Grouper sandwiches were not only delicious but some of the largest we have seen ever! Sadly, this was one of the locations significantly hit by this past season‘s hurricanes, but they weathered through it. The location is lovely and lively and delicious once again! Recommend a visit at some point, but if you happen to be a non-ravens fan might wanna hold off on game days LOL 😆“

“We had the Seafood Broiled platter; Stuffed Flounder and Gyro platter. This was the best food we’ve had while in St. Pete! Our server, Lauren was wonderful! The Manager works with the wait staff to ensure everyone gets seated immediately. The prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get. We will definitely go back and recommend Skidder’s to anyone visiting. You won’t be disappointed or go away hungry.“

“Rumfish Grill 8-24-24 The restaurant opens at 5pm so we made reservations the day before for the first seating at 5pm. We arrived about 4:25pm and went to the bar for a drink before dinner. Four things right up front to remember that we did not know but learned fast. First you must pay $10.00 to park to go into the restaurant or bar unless you are staying there. 2nd Parking, restaurant, and bar ONLY take credit cards but can take tips in cash. 3rd this restaurant is not for everyone as it has a very limited menu and it’s pricey. 4th if you make reservations make sure you ask for a table at the aquarium as these tables go first. The restaurant opens at 5pm and the bar is open from 11am to 12am. The Bar only has a very small menu so if you want dinner you have to go to the restaurant where the 33,500-gallon aquarium is located. We got seated at 5pm and Audrey took our drink order and left menus for us to look over. When she came back, we asked her if we could move to a table as we asked for that when we first arrived. She had seated us at a ½ booth with cracked bench seat and ½ table. That was too uncomfortable for the wife. We moved to a table and proceeded to order our food. I ordered the Grilled Rib Eye medium well with Yukon Whipped Potato’s. The wife ordered the Angus Filet Mignon medium well with Yukon Whipped Potato’s. Our orders also came with a couple spears of asparagus on top of the potatoes. My dad ordered the kids Chicken Tenders, Fries, and a Salad as he could not find anything on the adult menu he liked. It took a while for our food to come out, so they brought us 3 rolls to hold us over. Once our food got delivered my Rib Eye looked perfect and tasted fantastic it was done just perfect. My potatoes were good, but they were warm not hot but not cold enough to send back. My wife’s Filet Mignon was done perfectly and tasted fantastic, but her potatoes were just warm. The asparagus was cold and hard. My wife had to ask another server to fill her drink up as we have not seen Audrey in a while. She did stop by much later to see if we needed anything. I thought for an upscale restaurant with higher prices the service would be better and the food a lot hotter. The steaks were done perfectly and tasted great too bad they could not pull that off for the rest of the meal. By the way my dad’s Chicken Tenders and Fries were very good, and everything was hot. With the large 33,500-gallon aquarium which was absolutely beautiful and mesmerizing to watch they really have a niche to draw people in. This place could easily be a 5-star restaurant, but it only earned 3 from my experience. ⭐⭐⭐ Follow me on FB for more. Gulf Coast Terry“
