The Royal Isabela was a beautiful resort and very cozy place to stay. The staff was so warm, welcoming, and helpful. My wife and I had a situation with our airline, where our bag with our wedding dresses and rings were lost in transit. When we told the staff about our situation, they all worried and several even jumped up to help, suggesting back-up options and offering to give us a ride into town to replace some of the things we would need. We kept them updated about the location of our bag and when it was due to get there, they all waited in anticipation with us. It finally arrived five minutes before our ceremony was due to start and it was delivered within minutes to our casita by the concierge. They were all so sweet and had my wife and I in tears when it was time to leave. If we could change anything, it would only be to stay longer and explore more of the property. We got married down on the beach in Swallow Cave, a location only available seasonally because the cave floods during certain times of the year. It was a truly breathtaking site, the sun sets in an ideal spot in relation to the cave and the waves were huge and amazing. After my wife and I said our 'I do's and went in to kiss, hundreds swallows flew out of the cave and into the air as if they were celebrating with us. It was the best experience we could have had and we will definitely be returning to Royal Isabela in the future for a longer stay!

I am from Michigan and got married at Borinquen Beach and had our small wedding party (8 of us total) go to La Casa Restaurant at Royal Isabela afterwards for dinner. (We also had lunch there on a different day as well, outside at the bar.) The grounds are amazingly beautiful. Excellent place for pictures. The waitstaff is incredible and attentive. The food is delicious! Both lunch and dinner were exceptional. We had a few picky eaters with us and they were all happy. Very very pleased!
