Those who prefer not to get their feet sandy walking to the pink palace can hop in the van that provides complimentary transportation between the two buildings. The hotel will be open during the renovations, which are expected to be completed in 2001. All that may be very interesting, but what about the important stuff - the food. The Maritana Grille is the resort's award-winning signature restaurant. Diners are surrounded by saltwater aquariums full of indigenous Florida fish.
Dinner is Floribbean cuisine, fresh and festive.
The best seat in the house is at the chef's table, where you can dine back in the kitchen with Executive Chef Eric Neri and his cooking staff. The Don is such an elegant, romantic setting, it's no wonder that more than 300 couples a year choose it as the place to tie the knot. It even kind of looks like a big pink wedding cake. Happy couples can do their own thing or let The Don take care of details such as videographers, bands, flowers and cakes. There's even a notary on staff who presides over many of the smaller nuptials.
