Lovely, popular hotel with a residential feel, mimicking colonial street architecture. Pastel colours and a large tropical courtyard with fountains and a pool complete the scene.

The elegant Villa Colonial is on a tree-lined street, 20 minutes’ walk from Antigua’s main square. True to its name, the building boasts a colonial façade and rooms around a large tropical courtyard garden. The buildings are attractively painted in soft pastel colours, and part of the hotel is designed to look like a colonial street with rooms on either side.

Set on two floors, there are simply decorated rooms with tile floors, private bathrooms, smart TVs, Wifi and either a shared balcony or patio.

The hotel has a restaurant and bar with views of the surrounding volcanoes, as well as an events rooms, and small, shallow pool in the garden.

  • "Very nice but not suitable for the rainy season as the public areas (lobby and restaurant) are open-sided and consequently very cold and we ended up wearing fleeces/coats to eat…
