| The hotel itself is gorgeous. The grounds are immaculate. The rooms and big and comfortable and luxurious. Food is pretty great.
The only negatives for me happened outside the hotel:
- The ocean is not the crystal clear aqua you'll see at other Caribbean locations.
- People walk up and down the beach incessantly (as many as 5 people every 10 minutes) to try to sell you jewelry, hats, t-shirts, stuffed animals, etc.
- There is nowhere decent to walk to. I'm totally fine spending most of my time in the hotel but sometimes it's nice to walk down the beach for a meal or a drink. The problem is that all the surrounding hotels are all-inclusive and not open to the public. There is a strip mall nearby which a pizza hut and some other unhealthy restaurants and tons of people trying to sell you tour packages.
Overall, it was a really nice, relaxing trip. Again, the hotel is gorgeous and clean. The staff is very nice. I just wish that someone had pointed out the above negatives to me. If I knew about them, we probably would have looked elsewhere.
PS - If the hotel wants to set up a dinner reservation for you in downtown Puerto Plata, don't go. The food is poor and it's expensive. |

| Hotel itself is wonderful, food was decent. The big downfall in our opinion was that it was right in between two large all-inclusive hotels . The pictures show the place well, but fail to capture that the place is surrounded loud, obnoxious mega resorts. |

| I stayed at casa de Colonial Feb 2009. It was one of the most beautiful hotels I have ever stayed at. I live in New York City and have experienced High end. The rooms are Huge. The service at the hotel is indescribable. The food is the best I have ever had. I mean you could not have a bad meal at this place. Dinner one night was Lobster Taken out of the shell. A mound of lobster my friend could not even finish. Please keep in mind this is a high end boutique style hotel. It is a quiet place if you are looking for a party this is not your place. Be sure to take a trip one night to Cabarette it is about 25 away. It is amazing, Restaurants and bars on the beach. Do not miss this |
