The British Colonial is nothing less than great! The hotel itself is beautiful and clean. Food is amazing, especially their sushi. The beach is a stone throw away from the pool which is perfect to go back and forth throughout the day. The staff is very accommodating, friendly and welcoming. This is my second time staying here and I will be back!
