My Favorite Things - Loews Don CeSar Stay & Play #Giveaway

Since I am giving away a few of my favorite things over the next two weeks, it only makes sense to introduce you to my favorite place is in Florida! Loews Don CeSar located in St. Pete Beach.  

We are fortunate to live less than an hour from Loews Don CeSar, also known as "The Pink Palace". The Don is a historic hotel which opened in 1928. Over the years, the hotel has had many famous guests, was once home to the NY Yankees during spring training and was recently home to the filming of Bryan Cranston's Infiltrator. 

Although I have lived in FL my entire life, I still find myself in awe whenever visiting Don CeSar. Not only is the hotel gorgeous, it sits on Florida's gulf and has an incredible private beach. White sugar beaches, turquoise water and my favorite beach amenity ever - a beach chair with a flag to call your servers. Mimosa's on the beach without having to get up?

Loews Don CeSar also has a few of the best restaurants you will find in the Tampa Bay area. They have something for everyone. The foodies will rejoice at Maritana Grille where you can find tasting menu's for each season.

You can opt for a more casual meal at Sea Porch. If you find yourself there at lunch, get the burger. You're welcome.

Coming in 2016 and part of a $10 million dollar renovation is The Rowe Bar, named after the Don CeSar's founder Thomas Rowe. The Rowe Bar will face the gulf and have sliding doors that will open up to the beach, offering incredible sunsets! A new mixologist-inspired cocktail and seafood menu will be offered when the Rowe Bar opens to the public in January.

For today's Giveaway, I am giving one reader a one night stay at Loews Don CeSar and a $100 Rowe Bar gift certificate!
