Welcome to the Casa de los Monos Inn website. Located in the Northern side of Banderas Bay - directly on a sandy and soft beach with miles of easy walking in each direction along the ocean. This fishing village continues its tradition, and at 4:00 in the morning the fishermen can be seen leaving the beach in small boats.

The construction of Casa de los Monos Inn -which is actually a Spanish style Villa with a real Castle feel- took 20 years. It is made entirely of sand, ocean rock, marble, and the walls surrounding the property are three feet thick and 15 feet high.

It was built by a Cuban Physician named Dr. Jose Vicente Angel for his 8 children and countless grandchildren as a re-creation of the Spanish castles that line the Cuban beaches. With a climate and ocean and beach that are all almost identical to those of Cuba, it was as close as Dr. Angel could come to giving his children back a free Cuba. The Angel family continues to cherish the villa and have opened its amenities to others who cherish old world charm and value.
