I stayed at the Casa Velas in May 2008 and was quite impressed with the ability to check-in and have a peaceful experience. The grounds were quiet and with the location being so close to Puerto Vallarta I could run into the city if I wanted a little more excitement.

The goal I wanted to achieve was peace and quiet. The restaurants were amazing and having dinner at the private beach club really set the tone of my trip. The restaurants are a la carte and when I requested champagne it was at my table in a matter of moments. The staff really aims to please and to see to that I had a fabulous getaway.

The spa was as fabulous as the spa at The Grand Velas. It is a must do. It had been awhile since I had a facial and loved making myself slow down to enjoy such a wonderful luxury. Thank you Casa for making my stay memorable.

I recommend this resort to those who are not concerned about being directly on the beach. Since the resort has shuttle over to the private beach club it was the least of my worries not being on the beach. The service and comfort more than made up for not being directly on the beach. I was so enthralled by how quiet the resort grounds are. Since I live in a large city I needed the quiet atmosphere.

Another aspect of this resort I loved was it being an adults only boutique setting with only 80 rooms. This lends itself to being quiet and for those who prefer the feeling of being the only guests on holiday.

Several of the reviews at this hotel seem very suspicious. The reviews from Chuck-Sara, Chitown42 and GreggandShari are HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS because

-they share similar characteristics, all positive. And neither mention the previous negative review that specifically discusses airplane noise

-each reviewer has only one review to their credit having signed up at Trip Advisor just to review Casa Velas

-each username indicates - as of today - the same date of last visit - May 18, 2008.

This is the perfect hotel for a totally blissful vacation. Casa Velas is beautiful, clean, and feels very safe (gated). The staff are amazing. We found everyone to be gracious and helpful with every request. The property feels very exclusive. The private beach club is a wonderful ammenity. I cannot imagine staying anywhere else!

we are from Chicago, Illinois and went with a group of friends for the wedding at Casa Velas and we had the best time ever and the services at the Casa Velas are the top notch. It worth every pennies we spent. The staffs at the Hotel are excellent people. where would you go on vacation that the staffs treated you like you deserved and remember your names like a family.
It is a place for adults to enjoy and relax at the pool side with peace and tranquility.
We will go back again but not soon enough.
