Mar 26, 2025Another wonderful experience at Casa Velas
We think this was our 12th visit to Casa Velas, our first was in 2010. The property is so beautiful with approximately 80 rooms. The staff at this resort are amazing! The pool bar staff are wonderful, Juan, Ramon, Ulises and Gerardo all can make a great Aperol Spritz. The lobby bar was handled by Freddy, and always knew our drinks. At Emiliano, food was excellent and great service provided by Avalos, Alfredo, Fatima, Roscio, Jesus, Jerry and of course Daniel! At Tau we were always greeted with the smiling faces of Enrique, Erick, Carlos, Antonio and Benny! Can’t wait to return, hopefully in November.

A “Wow” Experience!
There for a family wedding, everything about our stay at Casa Velas was a “Wow”! From the beautiful room accommodations, pool, beach club, water bar, restaurant and room service food, to the live music. *In particular Ulises Ramon was our go-to person at the pool and dining room. Wow!

Perfection in PV
The smell of the lobby that greeted us was absolutely sublime. The staff, food, beds, amenities & fun were 11/10. The beach club is a delightful retreat & change of scenery & menu. On property, get to know Juan, avalos, Jesus, Ulysses, cio, Enrique to name a few. Only thing- we wish the staff didn’t move around from pool to breakfast etc- we like our favorites to stay consistent in their areas we are used to.

A close to perfect vacation.
We would go back. It was a very enjoyable 8 days in a beautiful and pampered setting. Special thanks to Juan, Jerry, Jesus, Daniel, Ramon, Alfredo, Jerry and Fatima. They helped made our stay so relaxed and enjoyable. Our suite was lovely and spacious and the housekeeping staff superb. Everywhere was spotless, and we really appreciate that. Bed and pillows were great. The bathroom was spacious and kept spotless by housekeeping. The pool was heated nicely, had places to sit and lounge in the water as well as a deeper part that was probably 4-4 1/2feet. The grounds were so beautiful and relaxing. If you are staying there, don't feel badly about leaving your stuff on a set of poolside chairs before breakfast. We were told that people can pay to come for the day and it got quite busy some days. We felt we were entitled to mark a spot because we were staying for 8 days. That said, they will try to accommodate you if you're late. The presentation of the food at Emiliano's was beautiful. We especially enjoyed the beef tenderloin, but were very disappointed in the ribeye steak. The special menus were a very nice addition. There were special touches given at meal times and accommodations, when requested, were attended to. Music at dinner and in the evenings was wonderful. We wished Emiliano's breakfast service was a bit faster, we would rather be at the pool. We felt we had to plan for 2 hour breakfasts. The french toast is amazing. I had it every day with a requested scrambled egg and crisp bacon on the side. Lunches were best at the pool. So relaxed, good food and drinks. Tau was beautiful and the shuttle quick and comfy. It was good to have more choices for meals, and of course the beach and sunsets. One of the two times we had dinner there, we were not given a menu for a half hour, and then waited another half hour between plate clearing and a dessert request. Both times, they admitted to forgetting. We left without dessert and disappointed in the service which was generally slow, both times. While the food was good (An exception was the lobster, which was tough and tasteless.), the four choices we made were not better than Emiliano's.
