Palmetto, Florida hotel rooms at the Highgate Independent

"Beautiful place "

"From the moment we arrived we were treated well and given great instructions- there is so much offered daily! Cookouts and children’s activities- DJ/music at the pool- water slides and floating obstacle course- delicious food & drink options- multiple pools and facilities. Our room was comfortable and spacious- had all we needed. Beds were comfortable for sleep. Only negatives would be the construction nearby and thin walls so we heard our neighbors but that was solved w the TV sound on! Very family friendly- all around it was a great stay! "

"No need to leave the property, great food at all the dining options. Having your own chairs and umbrella reserved all day is a major plus! If you prefer pool time, there are numerous pools to accommodate and keep from over crowding. Very relaxing getaway!"

"We had such a great stay at The Don CeSar and can’t wait to come again! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with smiles and kindness. A special shoutout to the amazing valet crew—especially Denis, who was always so friendly and welcoming. Our son, absolutely loved interacting with him! At check-in, Nick at the front desk was incredibly helpful and kind, setting the tone for a great stay. And a big thank you to Julian for his exceptional hospitality—he went above and beyond by filling my bottle with ice when I was in a rush. It’s those thoughtful little moments that really made a difference. Housekeeping kept our room spotless, and the entire staff at the pool and bar were fantastic—from the bartenders to the team who helped us find seats and even laid out our towels. They truly went above and beyond to make us feel cared for. The Don CeSar had everything we needed and more. We felt completely taken care of from start to finish. Truly an amazing team and hotel—we’ll definitely be back!"

"Great stay at the Compass-Anna Maria Island . Hotel was clean and well kept. Staff was friendly and helpful. Beautiful views of the water and marina access next door. Great restaurant called Floridays next door had great food and atmosphere. I would recommend this hotel to others and I look forward to returning .😊"

"The staff at the front desk and at the pool were very pleasant and attentive. Parking Was expensive in my opinion, but the guys and girls would run around and get your car when you needed. Valet only. No microwave to heat anything up even though it’s always hot in Florida. "

"The bed was firm, but the property was quiet, clean, and comfortable. This was one if the most relaxing getaways I've been on. I would definitely stay here again!"

"Excellent place, great staff."
