The El Colonial was perfect from beginning to end! They have a 24 hour bar. All the gentlemen that work there were right there to serve drinks and be social. It's an old building, but well kept and clean! The best part is the tile is original. If you want modern then this is not the place for you. The vibe is colonial and the rooms are basic, but amazing with high ceilings and comfortable beds. Luis upgraded us to a room with doors so we could enjoy. We stayed 7 days and every day the water was cool. Not a deal breaker for us because it's so hot outside. The air conditioner was amazing, which is hard to find at some places in Puerto Rico. We loved it so much that my daughter and fiancée will spend there honeymoon at the El Colonial. A giant shout out to all the wonderful people that work there. Luis was amazing and so full of energy. I never seen him without a smile. Also, Gerardo, Marcos, Christian, Angel, Eduardo, and Jesus were amazing!!! Thank you for making our 31st anniversary an experience that we will never forget! (I hope I mentioned all their names.)

The staff was amazing. very friendly and informative. Any time we had a question they were always there to answer. It was nice getting a beverage anytime we wanted. They also provided these cold wet towels after coming from exploring puerto rico. Every morning you would wake up to the fresh smell of Fabulouso. They really care about the maintence of the property and their guests.

From the moment we stepped in- customer service/charm was bursting at the seams! Stop waiting and just book it! (Hot water- I like to get lobster red, not an option for me- better for my skin I suppose & to cool down after hot humid days touring)
