Character and identity
The Colony is Palm Beach's pink grande dame, a 1947 high-rise repainted in a custom Farrow & Ball "Pink Paradise" hue and reimagined by Kemble Interiors' Mimi McMakin in a 2022 restoration. Across 93 rooms plus 14 top-floor and across-the-street Residences (including the Goop Villa and Chairish Villa), the look is tropical-vintage maximalism: scalloped headboards, rattan from Society Social, de Gournay monkey wallpaper in the lobby. Swifty's anchors the social scene with a leafy poolside terrace and New York-meets-Palm Beach cooking; live music, bingo, trivia and Naturopathica spa pop-ups fill the calendar. Service runs warm and white-glove, with a "welcome home" register.
Who's it for
Best for:
Couples, girlfriend groups, mother-daughter trips and multigenerational families who want classic Palm Beach charm with a sense of humour. Design-literate guests will appreciate the Kemble interiors and named-collaborator villas; snowbirds get long-stay Residences; sociable travellers will love the live music, Beach Butler golf-cart service and pink-bike loaners between Worth Avenue and the sand.
Should look elsewhere:
Anyone wanting a true resort footprint, a serious destination spa, or kids' club programming should book a larger property. The single-room Naturopathica spa needs advance booking, Swifty's pricing is steep (a lox bagel north of $30 at brunch), and minimalists may find the whimsy relentless.
Bottom line
What you're paying for here is atmosphere and service, not square footage or facilities: a fantastical pink set piece run with genuine warmth, two blocks from both Worth Avenue and the beach. Book it for a romantic long weekend or a celebratory group trip, splurge on a Junior Suite or a Residence villa for space, and aim for shoulder season when the locals reclaim the bar.
