We got married at Casa Islena in March of 2026 and could not recommend it more. When I say this place is absolutely perfect I mean there is not a single thing that I would change about my wedding day. The hotel itself is incredible - location wise it's beach front with a pool and beautifully laid out. It accommodated my entire family to the max for an extended weekend through our wedding stay, including my uncle who is hard of mobility. He was able to stay in a room beside the pool which he loved ease of access to everything without having to go up any steps from the ground level. The staff is the most accommodating, especially the event planner, Graciela. She truly lives up to her name as she handles herself and her interactions with her clients with such grace, she is a ray of light in human form. Chris is also a wonderful host and you can truly tell he puts his heart and soul into making everyone's experience at Casa Islena a memorable one. And as for the food - phenomenal. The head chef Wesley clearly is passionate about his job and puts a very unique yet tasteful flair in every plate. Prior to having our wedding here, we already would dream about their poke bowls, empanadillas, and churrasco but post-wedding all of our guests were raving about the food being the best food they'd ever experienced at a wedding. There are truly not enough words I can say to express how perfect Casa Islena is in EVERY aspect. Pre- wedding as a guest of the restaurant/ poolside brunches and previous hotel stays I already would have rated it a 10/10. But post- wedding there is no number I can place on any scale to express how incredible it is. You'll just have to go there, and see for yourself. Thank you to all at Casa Islena for not making just my wedding day, but the entire week, the absolute best week of my lifetime. I am forever grateful. read more

A nearby lunch spot gave us this recommendation for Pina Coladas and they were right! They were creamy and delicious. The fresh whipped cream on top was amazing. Our server even gave us a cup for my nephew. We all enjoyed. Thank you! read more

We stopped in for lunch after a day at the beach. What an amazing lunch we had. It was suggested by some locals as a very good place to have lunch. We started off with some pumpkin hummus which was absolutely delicious. For our lunch entree I had the pernil grilled cheese, it was so good! A large sandwich with plenty of flavor, so glad I picked this. My girlfriend had the huevos rancheros which she enjoyed as well. For dessert she had a coconut flan and I had some buñuelos (sp.) essentially they were like beignets and they were delicious. What a satisfying meal with an amazing view of the beach. The service was spectacular, Ariana did an amazing job of giving us great options and serving a wonderful meal, she also made sure the beers were extra cold. To top it off, we were able to jump into the pool after lunch. PERFECT! You gotta try this spot. read more

I literally think I have never written a review before. So sad. I was really excited to come here because of the reviews and videos I had seen online. The food was fine, even though it took probably 45 minutes to get us due to "an issue in the kitchen." Fair enough. Some of the portions were surprisingly small (the ceviche shocked us). Nice live music The drinks were fine. Whatever. HOWEVER NONE OF THIS WAS THE MAIN ISSUE. My husband and I were looking for parking and found some seemingly for the restaurant specifically. When we returned to the car we found a large delivery truck blocking us in. It was no big deal because we weren't in any rush, so my husband went to the front to let them know while I stayed behind. Three women (I'm assuming hostesses, not sure) came out and starting talking badly about my husband, more specifically saying "bro, are you stupid? You obviously can't park here." Um, no maam it's actually NOT obvious considering there is not one single sign indicating that we couldn't park there. Apparently it was employee parking. They continued on and on between them talking poorly about my husband in front of me. I'm assuming they didn't realize I was with him, but regardless, who talks about customers of your establishment in front of other customers, let alone call someone stupid? That to me is unacceptable. I hope someone gets fired over this or at the very least reprimanded. I am beyond disappointed and disgusted and will never come here again and tell everyone I know to avoid this place. read more

It's lives up to the reviews. Breakfast, yes! Brunch, yes! Poolside, make sure you're there Sunday mornings for the DJ. Dinner absolutely blew our minds. Tasteful live music on a Saturday night. We had the shrimp scampi and Churassco. We loved our food, excellent tender steak. The white wine sauce for the scampi was delicious. Our server was informative and helpful. When we came for breakfast I had the salmon, deconstructed salmon bagel , lots of fresh salmon. Their fish is daily, their watermelon juice is my favorite. Really everything here has been wonderful. Highly recommended. To note ; they close at 3 open again at 5 and open till 10pm read more

Amazing food, but unfortunately the host experience ruined it. The hosts were extremely rude, didn't inform us that the menu had changed, and openly talked negatively about our group. As a former server, this was completely unacceptable. We had dined here two nights in a row with great service and delicious food, but after this experience, I won't be returning. The hosts are the first impression of a restaurant, and this one missed the mark entirely. read more

Stayed here for two nights, a great place right on the beach with wonderful restaurant and bar. Friendly staff.

Brunch was so good we came back that evening for dinner. Some of the best food we had in PR! read more

Headed here for lunch after being turned away in the evening because they were full. We're glad we came back. We were quickly seated, with the pool on one side and the ocean on the other .. quite nice. Our server, and the bartender, was an efficient, friendly guy and took good care of us. We had salads, one with shrimp and the other with tuna and they were fantastic. The shrimp was particularly good. Drinks were well made and tasty. This is a nice place for a meal and worth your time. read more

Love casa islena!! Usually would just go for the DJ/pool party on Sundays (that ends at 3pm by the way) but recently tried it for dinner and was truly impressed. I had the short rib dish which was fantastic. For brunch I had the poke bowl, a friend had the salmon platter (huge portion of salmon but came with goat cheese instead of cream cheese which was a bit odd), and another had the breakfast burrito. Everything was very high quality. I'm also very picky about my espresso and it wasn't bad here! Come on a weekend night for dinner for a relaxing acoustic set by the pool, Sunday before 3 for a Vegas style pool party, or a weekday morning for a relaxing lunch. It has it all. Plus, it's right on the beach which I always look for! Just be aware they close between 2-5 to switch over to dinner service. read more

Amazing brunch there! Visiting PR spontaneously and went to this place due to a friend recommending it. Food was incredible! Highly recommended the French toast and the grilled cheese! We went on St Patty's day so wait was expected to be long but we got our drinks and food surprisingly fast. We of course took advantage of pool and beach access! Would be coming again! read more

The food was absolutely delicious. Sometimes restaurants attached to inns can be mediocre but not this place. Started of brunch with grapefruit mimosas.. they where strong and delicious. For food we got steak and eggs and the Huevos rancheros. Both where fresh and came out quickly! I am not the biggest fan of steak and I thought it was so tasty. The portion sizes where good as well. I cant forget about the beautiful view. We sat right next to the water and watched people surf. The staff is also very friendly and give great suggestions of places to go in the area. This is a must if you are in the area ! read more

Our friends highly recommended Casa Islena to us. It is a beautiful Inn right on Sandy Beach. So convenient to have a restaurant where we were staying, we had dinner our first night and brunch a couple of times during our stay. We sat out on the little patio to our room (ocean view) each morning and watched the surfers. I loved that I could walk across the parking lot to do yoga on the beach in the morning. We can't wait to visit again! read more

This place is perfect. Lovely delicious food, unrivaled setting and great service. We've been here many times and never been disappointed.

Best spot on Sandy beach hands down. Love the food and drinks. Live music is an added bonus!

After a night at Beside the Pointe, we got a good look at the Casa Islena and set off to see how expensive a room would be. We were staying for a couple of off season weeknights and the place was clearly not full, and we were offered a rate measurably less than the one on the website. We took it and had a blast. The place borders Sandy Beach-- a great place to surf-- and the parking lot is packed in the morning with local surfers. There is also a peaceful swimming pool (with a view of the ocean), as well as a series of stony patios (with views of the pool and ocean), free wireless internet, and other minor comforts. The reception staff keeps pretty limited hours during the off season so the place was a little deserted except for us and a couple other guests, but that was just what we wanted at the time. read more

We were very disappointed by our experience after coming here on a recommendation. The service was not worthy of the caliber restaurant they purport to be. The server was inattentive, did not communicate, nor checked on us when the food was taking a very long time to be served. Once the food started being served, it was only ready for a part of the party. There was a significant delay for the rest of the party. Overall, the food was good, but they completely missed it with 2 basic Puerto Rican staples: tostones and yucca. It was clearly evident that the plantains for the tostones had already started ripening, and the Yucca had no flavor and required salt. My Puerto Rican mother and I would be embarrassed to serve anything like that to anyone. Had the other dishes not been good, this would be a 1-star review. Had the service matched the level of restaurant this is supposed to be, then this review would have been a 4-star review. We will not risk returning to this establishment and will certainly not be recommending it. read more

Great evening poolside at this lovely spot on the beach. We walked from our hotel and enjoyed a cocktail whilst we waited for our table. The drinks were beautifully presented and tasty. The appetizers were delicious and the entrees are good, varied menu. I loved my Kingfish of the day with vegetables. Good service with live music to accompany your meal. Great spot! read more

Casa Islena is hidden on a small road, across from a cow pasture on the edge of a rain forest. The low Spanish wall that fences in the resort is broken by two large wooden doors. Through those doors is a peaceful, fun resort with a pool, small restaurant and bar and directly across from the property is the cool aqua marine of the Caribbean ocean. We got to Casa Islena after a morning of hellish travel and were instantly rejuvenated and welcomed by the friendly staff. Being a New Yorker my first reaction to new people is usually contempt, but the staff at Casa Islena were so warm (in fact the whole island) and laid back that we felt instantly at home. Then, we got to our room. It was bigger than most studio apartments in Manhattan, with double swinging doors that opened onto our private balcony--which was a few steps from the shoreline. There was ample air conditioning and for some reason cable TV. (Who watches television on vacation?) We were totally alone and at peace. Casa Islena is right in the Puntas area and near several fun bars and great surf breaks. It's also along a beautiful shoreline that was once the defensive strong point for the Spanish navy so there are long paths that stretch along the shore and walls with cannon holes in them. If you're up for the walk, you can keep going until you get to Marias or beyond. But there is really no reason to stray far from Islena. Right up the beach is Tamboo, Bungers and Casa Verde. The resort is totally open to guests, so you can drink as long as the bar is open (or just buy a bottle or two up the road), swim in the pool or just hang out on the deck. If you're going to Rincon, I can't think of better place to stay. read more

Came here for dinner and was not dissapointed. The ceviche and pinchos are so fresh. My friends really enjoyed their fish and meat entrees. I ordered the poke bowl, my only complaint is that the rice was undercooked, so there was a hard bite that kind of took over the flavors of the dish. The desserts were also amazing. I would definitely come back! read more

My husband and I decided last-minute to get carry out dinner from here and felt like we stumbled into paradise! Had a drink at the bar overlooking the water and the last of the sunset while we waited for our food. Live musician played a nice set while families and couples had dinner or played in the pool. The whole scene was casual but still somehow elegant. I went back twice the next day, once for some drinks and once for some food with my kids. Both times, carry out again-- the location is so convenient to the beach and we loved being able to walk back and forth from where we set up to swim and surf for the day. The staff was so friendly. We ordered the wrong thing by accident and they quickly replaced our dish at no extra cost. Be ready to wait 20 minutes for your carry out-- this is not fast food-- but the time passes quickly with the good conversation and lovely setting. We've never dined in but I can only imagine that that would be a lovely experience too. I would return with my family, for a date, or for an evening with friends. read more
