Where does the car drop you at The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, and what does the resort say about valet?

How we source facts

At The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, 155 Hammon Avenue, the car drops you at the hotel; its own FAQ says guests have parking at $45 per 24 hours and valet service, that check-in is at 4 p.m. and check-out at 11 a.m., and names no house car or airport transfer (The Colony Hotel, n.d.).

The Colony Hotel is at 155 Hammon Avenue, Palm Beach, FL 33480. The FAQ says guests have access to parking at $45 per 24 hours and to valet service, without saying whether the rate is for valet or self-parking. Check-in is at 4 p.m. and check-out at 11 a.m., with earlier or later times subject to availability through the front desk. (The Colony Hotel, n.d.).

Not on the pages I read: a valet fee as such; a house car, shuttle or airport transfer; the drop-off point or entrance. Resorts change valet rates and house-car hours without notice, so the page's own words are checked by a daily watch, and the desk confirms the door with the resort's bell desk the day before an arrival.

What the car does: from DJT, or any airport or private terminal, the captain meets you where the airport's rules allow, watches the flight, and drops you at the resort's porte-cochère or the entrance the bell desk names, with waiting after landing included; the resort's own concierge can arrange a transfer too, and its page says so, so compare the two on price and on what each includes. The fare here is agreed before the car moves, and you see it before you book.
