Hilton Hotels hotels in Shell Key Preserve, St. Petersburg - Clearwater

"This was an amazing place to enjoy our christmas. I was sceptical at first as we try to be careful with our money and not over spend for things. This place was a bit pricey for a stay as a single parent, which I think could be worked on, however over all, the people that work here where nice, most of the guests were too, the beach was clean, the tropical drinks where amazing, and you can walk from a hotel bar to the next fairly quickly. I didn't realize the kitchens where furnished with things to make meals, so we tried to go get meals which was a challenge. no continental breakfast, or really any resturant breakfast options from the hotel. We fed the ducks at 10:30 am, and that was a great way to start the morning. the pools where warm, and the experiance was amazing. And the water of the ocean was pretty, and drinking a tropical drink on the white sandy beach under an umbrella, on Christmas morning, a day after my birthday, in my Mcdonalds Grinch socks was the best. Oh and the Sunsets where great! A++"

"Staff friendly "

"Incredible resort! Very clean with a tropical theme. Great location close to beaches."

"Rooms were clean- plenty of activities "

"Our room was recently renovated and it was great. The new look is going to look amazing. The staff was super friendly and helpful."

"We initially booked a queen room with a pullout couch. It was okay. We took a peak at the rooftop patio (soon to be bar) and felt the building was a lot nicer and decided to look into upgrading. We were able to upgrade to a two bedroom, two bath room with a great view of the ocean. It was absolutely wonderful. We have already planned our next trip back down. The room was spacious, clean, plenty of supplies. Although, you need your own laundry detergent. The washer and dryers in the room are amazing. The pool area is small, but it’s what we enjoy. Intimate and not overly busy. Beach is perfect. I do wish chairs and umbrellas were included with the booking of the room. There is a third party on the beach offering chairs and umbrellas for $40 per day. Less than 5 minute walk to John’s Pass! WAY more pros than cons. Cannot wait to return! "

"It was an excellent experience and joy able stay room was clean and house keeping service was very good"

"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."
