We were told by close friends that The Colony was a great place to go with the kids. They were right. It's right on the beach with a great free kids program, and a decent spa and work out room. We're not avid tennis players but you can't resist trying while you're there. To get the whole family on the tennis court was a fun experience. The food was great and plenty of choices for the kids, too. We even had a waiter who knew how to make a doll out of a napkin for my fussy daughter! Rooms are huge with a kitchen, so we didn't have to eat out all the time. We will return as soon as we can.
