I just returned from my destination wedding at Casa Ybel. If I can give the resort 10 stars I would. First, the accommodations – outstanding with waterfront views for Villa’s. Additionally, the rooms were so spacious that it was the perfect spot for family and guests to gather. It was extra special since all the rooms were together making it easy for all guests to continue mingling throughout the evening and for the entire weekend. The beach – wow…..so beautiful where you can see the sunset on the water. The tent reception was elegant and convenient since no one had to drive anywhere. The white birch arch and flowers from Libby’s were gorgeous. The food and service was off the charts! Most of my guests eat at the best restaurants in the country and the food was on par with them. I can not say enough good things and thanks to Amy S and Jessica……..Casa Ybel is also within an hour from the airport making this destination wedding spot very viable. This is the place for a destination wedding!

Our rehearsal dinner for our son and his bride was everything we hoped it would be! The patio and deck area were the perfect spot – we were even protected from a little rain! The photos we have seen, with the little lights on the roof of the patio which were turned on after dark, looked enchanting! The staff was amazing – very helpful throughout the evening – including helping to get the AV equipment ready for our presentation. Last but not least, the food was great! Several people commented on it! The event coordinator was more than willing to make a few substitutions to the menu due to some of our preferences! Great experience!!

Casa Ybel is a spectacular venue to have a beach or seaside wedding on the lawn. They have everything that you need right at the resort. The one thing that you can’t control when having an outdoor wedding is the weather. They have the facilities to move you wedding indoors but we experienced something that rarely happens, a hurricane. In spite of this, Casa Ybel stepped up, had integrity and worked with us so we could change our plans. Their staff is knowledgeable, seasoned and knew just what to do so we could still have the perfect wedding.

Simply AMAZING! We worked with Tori for our destination wedding and she was so helpful, it took away any of the worries I had about planning from a distance. Quick to respond to my, sometimes numerous, emails Tori made sure everything was perfect. The entire wedding weekend was simply amazing. The grounds of Casa Ybel were beautiful; you’d hardly know Hurricane Irma had hit less than an month before. All of the staff went above and beyond and the food was outstanding. Our guests are still talking about how our wedding was they’ve been too! Our day was perfect and I cannot say enough good things about Tori and the staff.

I cannot thank the staff at Casa Ybel for our wonderful wedding experience! The grounds are beautiful and very well manicured, the rooms are spacious and all have a full view of the Gulf of Mexico. The staff is extremely nice and very easy to work with and cuisine is  excellent! I recommend Casa Ybel Resort to anyone planning a destination wedding or looking for a new vacation spot!

We can’t thank Tori (and Jessica) enough for helping make our day so special! Planning a wedding from out of state- she made it stress free and fun! With Hurricane Nate causing storm surge and having to move off the beach for safety – she kept us updated and the location was beautiful getting as close to the beach and water as possible! The food was outstanding and our servers were top notch! Chris and Kevin did a great job. We and our guests had such a fun night- thank you!!!

Casa Ybel was wonderful! We looked at several places around the island and choose Casa Ybel because of the location, the customer service and the ease of everything being in one spot. Jessica, Tori and the staff were all so helpful at answering all of our questions and helping to make the day perfect. With all the planning being long distance, they were so easy to work with and helpful with vendor suggestions. The beach setting for our wedding was absolutely perfect, the back drop of the gulf and the set up for the ceremony worked beautifully even with the aftermath of Irma. It was perfect for our small group. After the ceremony we moved inside to the Waterfront Room for the reception which was a great break from the heat but still allowed for a wonderful view. We had a brunch menu and the food delicious. Jeremy (our catering supervisor) and his crew did a great job keeping everything running smoothly and attending to everyone’s needs. The grounds were beautiful with a variety of places to take photos. Even with a few hiccups outside of the resort (hurricanes, no show hairstylists) the staff was so helpful and coming together to keep my day extra special!! Thank you SOOO much for making our wedding absolutely spectacular!!!! Heidi Taylor (Taylor Wedding 1 October 2017)
