First, there was the popular five-star Velas Vallarta in 1990, with its 361 fully equipped oceanfront suites in Marina Vallarta, followed by the gorgeous Gran Turismo Grand Velas All Suites & Spa Resort in Nuevo Vallarta in 2002, which created a paradigm shift in the way people view all inclusives with its amazing facilities, including four fabulous restaurants that can hold their own against any in the world.
And now, the newest member of this prestigious family is arguably the area's most beautiful boutique hotel, the sophisticated, European-feeling Casa Velas on the Marina Vallarta Golf Course. Although its spa, services and facilities already enjoyed an unparalleled reputation when part of the Quinta Real and Regent brands, Velas Hotel Group president Eduardo Vela Ruiz says that with experienced hotelier Luis Angarita at the helm, the 80-suite boutique hotel will raise the quality of its services and amenities even higher.
“Lifestyles” publisher John Youden says, "The Velas family is very important in Puerto Vallarta and very good at investing back into the town, which they'll do with this new property because they have the opportunity to make it shine as it never has."
Other hotels recently changing ownership are La Jolla de Mismaloya, owned by the Spanish Barceló chain since mid-October and now called Barceló La Jolla de Mismaloya, and the Qualton Resort and Spa, now the Hola Puerto Vallarta Hotel.
