Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach Resort and Suites

Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach Resort and Suites

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay at the Hyatt Regency in Clearwater, Florida. From the moment we arrived, the staff was friendly, welcoming, and helpful, which made the entire experience feel easy and enjoyable. The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable, giving us plenty of room to relax after a day out exploring. The pool was another highlight—warm, well-maintained, and perfect for unwinding. The hotel’s location is also excellent, with easy access to the beach, restaurants, shops, and many of the area’s main attractions. It was convenient to be so centrally located while still feeling like we had everything we needed right at the hotel. The amenities were great, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the overall experience exceeded our expectations. I would definitely recommend the Hyatt Regency Clearwater to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and conveniently located place to stay in Clearwater Beach. We would be happy to come back again."

"Don CeSar is beautifully restored historical hotel. The beach area was great with chairs & umbrellas provided. Adequate staff to help & take orders. Bar between 2 pools was great spot for light lunch & cocktails. Dinner at The Society was delicious & reasonably priced. Uncle Andy’s was perfect for coffee & gelato. We arrived early but still able to get into room. I highly recommend Don CeSar & plan to visit again!!"
