There is no sign for the colonial at jaguar reef. The lodge, the colonial, and the almond are all on the same property but there’s only a sign for the lodge. You have to check in and park at the lodge at jaguar reef for these hotels. Very clean, very friendly, beautiful beach set up!

Beautiful ocean views and location like no other. The rooms were ok. The food choices were ok, but need improvement. It was hard to get a pizza from the pizza oven resturant on site - it was either incredibly long wait times or closed too early in the evening. Overall, the prices were steep and, though a very nice facility, it was not a great value.

A lovely location. A problem with our hotel lighting. It flashed constantly. Trying to read or even be in the room at night was not good. Most of staff were good. Had to request room service.

Jaguar Reef Wins!
Wonderful, friendly staff, excellent food at the restaurant, clean comfortable rooms. We did part of our stay at Hopkins Bay and I will say that although the price is comparable, the service, cleanliness, and comfort are superior at Jaguar Reef! The food at the restaurant is much better and overall there is just a happier vibe.

Jaguar Reef, just okay
The stay was nice and the pools were great. Bartenders were friendly and drinks were good. Our room was old and dated but our friends room was very nice. The curtains were very visibly dusty in our room. I wouldnprobably not stay there again as there are better values for money in the area. Restaurant was very overpriced, so we never ate there.
