Just returned from a wedding in playa dorado Puerto Plata. My friends stayed at Gran Ventana, only a couple of us stayed in the beautifully designed Casa Colonial. The architect who is also rumored to be a part owner, Sara Garcea, has done such an amazing job in decorating the rooms, the building and the rooms are beautiful. This is... more

This hotel really stands out among the other all-inclusives in Puerto Plata. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, well-air conditioned, and luxurious. Really, the rooms couldn't get any better. The hotel grounds are immaculately designed and extraordinarily well kept. The restaurants on the grounds are probably the best in the Puerto Plata. We were never disappointed with any of the meals... more

The hotel was amazing - just as pictured. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The room, the pool, the beach was all just as we had hoped. This is a great little getaway from busy life. We spent most days at the pool or walking along the beach. We ate at the hotel for the most part but also went... more

We booked this trip through Luxurylink.com and it was such a deal that we expected the experience to be at least a little disappointing. But it was flawless. Even shockingly wonderful. The hotel is gorgeous and stylish, the food was incredible. The service was over-the top. We had a dinner on the beach one night and returned to our room... more

This was so nearly the perfect break. The hotel is inside a gated resort community about 20 minutes from POP airport. The gated community known as Playa Dorado has around 16 hotels and a golf course. All of these hotels, including Casa Colonial, share the same stretch of beach which the whole resort is built around. Casa Colonial is by... more

Love the area and love the people! We come back to DR yearly and anted to check out the north coast again. We... more

The Casa colonial was indeed a nice exception among all the all inclusives surrounding it on both sides. Rooms are elegantly decorated, and public spaces as well. Beds are super comfortable! The only minus was the spa; it is big and elegant, but the treatments were highly over-priced. A very average facial, 50 minutes, would cost 130 USD + 26%... more

This hotel was absolutely beautiful and the service was excellent! We were disappointed that it rained most of our trip, but the hotel, food and service made up for it! The concierges Freddy and Carlos made sure that every wish we had was taken care of, and even upgraded us to the penthouse suite for the duration of our stay!... more
