Quick Verdict: The Cottages at PGA National Resort vs The Colony Hotel Palm Beach

When The Cottages at PGA National Resort wins: Choose the cottages if your trip is about golf, on-site wellness (the 40,000 sq ft Spa at PGA National), multiple pools, or roomy two-bedroom cottage layouts for families or groups.
