I enjoyed my stay! The place was beautiful and well stocked with all of the basics, very clean and well maintained. The site was gorgeous and the staff extremely friendly and helpful. I even saw an employee stop his routine to help an injured grasshopper! Loved my time at Casa Ybel and plan to return!

Casa Ybel was a wonderful place to stay. It’s perfect for a couple or a small family with young children. The location is excellent, with a full ocean view, and the pool is absolutely amazing. The only minor drawbacks were a few cosmetic details—some chipped kitchen tiles, a bathtub that could use an upgrade, and a broken AC door. Overall, I would rate this stay 4.8 stars and would definitely recommend it. 😊.

Casa Ybel was the perfect getaway for my family. The resort was an oasis of serenity and sunshine which helped us unwind from the brutally cold and miserable winter we just endured up north. Privacy, fabulous food, beautiful grounds and a professional staff are what you can expect at Casa Ybel. I look forward to returning next year.

Absolutely loved my stay at Casa Ybel. The beach is steps away and all of the units have back doors/ porches to make accessing the beach even easier. Check in was ok. The young lady helping me even held my groceries since our room was not ready yet and then had them delivered to our room. Some of the young maintenance staff came in while I was checking in and seemed to try and start an argument with her, but she kept professional. I would absolutely stay here again.

Disappointed to learn that this resort charges for chairs on the beach. Having a kitchen was a selling point for us, as we don’t like to eat out every meal on vacation. Unfortunately, there were very few utensils, cookware and storage pieces within. The paper products were extremely cheap for a resort of this type. We had trouble with one TV in the bedroom and front desk was not concerned about helping us with this. They referred us to call back the next day. We did see an employee doing maintenance in the morning and he informed us that it was merely a switch that needed turning to run that particular outlet. He was very quick to answer our question, so it was obvious that this is a common occurrence.

+: Room was nice. Great view. Enjoyed sitting out on the enclosed lanai in the mornings and evenings. Quiet (other than the cleaning people speaking quite loudly outside our door one afternoon). Convenient to attractions and area restaurants. -: Way too expensive. Restaurant prices were ridiculously high (although the food and service were good). Ditto pool bar. There were no wash clothes in our room. We had to wait until the next morning to get some, and then they were cosmetic wash clothes (black) which continually ran black dye. Ugh. Apparently you had to pay to rent beach chairs/umbrella at $40 a day. Seems overkill. We didn't bother to do this.
