Excellent hotel with a charming beach - although cramped between neighbouring hotels (one of which was fond of loud music and entertainment at night). We can only confirm all the great things written previously about this hotel. However, there was one pro too many for us.

We were fortunate to stay when the hotel was relatively quiet. Perhaps as a result we couldn't help but notice at various times during our two-week stay, eight couples each comprising a North American man in his 40's/50's with a pretty East European girl in her late teens/early 20's. Each couple didn't stay for more than a few days at a time - usually over the weekends. Communication clearly wasn't their strongest suit; the men, who were often in pairs, talked loudly to one another about - rather than to - the girls, while the pairs of girls conversed in Slavic and at least one of them phoned her mother in Russian about her impending trip home - having spent a month on the island. For bonus "eye-spy" points, future guests might try spotting a red-headed woman, who we saw in the hotel bar on one occasion with her lap top - the day before her "partner" arrived...

Draw your own conclusions, but hopefully the next time we stay at this marvellous hotel (which we have every intention of doing) there might be slightly less business of the above kind being conducted.

From the moment we stepped off the plane, we knew this was going to be a fabulous holiday! As established with the reservation manager, a driver was waiting for us to whisk us away to the beautiful Casa Colonial.

We were warmly welcomed by the staff when we arrived and offered warm towels and a beverage, as a "freshen up" .

We knew we were in for a treat. The staff's attention to us and to detail was meticulous. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all beautifully plated , and delicious.

The G.M. of the hotel, Mr. Luigi and his staff were eager to make our holiday as relaxing and wonderful as possible.

This elegant property offered us seclusion and tranquility, with the beach, infinity pool and spa as our playground.

The Casa Colonial is a gem.

My third stay here and every one has been better than the last. Spa i..superb, steam room just right and Armando is magic! My friend had never had a MASSAGE BY A massuer and was a bit apprehensive and hIS PROFSSIONALISM AND PHYSIOTHERAPUTIC background made her feel comfortable We wanted to bring him home with us! Garden setting is divine.,room 40 has best view of sun and moon rises . Rooftop pool and jacuzzis are ultra luxe
