This is… Beny: Bartender at Casa Velas
Beny, whose real name is Benigno, is one of Casa Velas‘ bartenders. With 14 years of experience and enjoying every minute of it, he loves sharing moments with every guest that shows in his savory cocktails and drinks he delicately prepares.
He decided to be called Beny as that name sounds funnier, shorter, and easier to pronounce. Bartenders at the lobby are crucial to making all guests continue their afternoon satisfied and fully relaxed, feeling the attentive service that distinguishes Casa Velas.
Cocktail making has become so important in his life. It is not just a job, but a way of enjoying life, learning something new every day, and growing in areas that make him feel better as a person.
He will never forget his first day at Casa Velas, as he was exposed to an entirely new environment, one that he was not used to. Beny faced a challenge in which cleverness helped him achieve his goals and become one of the best in his area. Able to captivate guests’ hearts, he manages to be one of the most mentioned on social media —something he is proud of.
On your next visit to Casa Velas, make sure to say hi to Beny at the Lobby Bar and taste his refreshing margaritas, one of his go-to drinks. You should also savor the Beny Special, a rum and fruit juice cocktail that leaves everyone speechless!

4 years agoWatching Beny in this video makes me want to come back to Casa Velas! It put a big smile on my face. My husband and I love sitting at the Lobby Bar because of Beny! Always has a smile on his face, and tweets like a bird. The first year we moved our Fractional Ownership from Velas Vallarta to Casa Velas was April, 2009. He made an elephant out of toothpicks and wine corks that I took home with me, and still have at home to remember him by.
All of the other employee names mentioned as Beny read off compliments about them are also people we love! They are all like a distant family to us we have gotten to know. We’ve had some personal things that have kept us from traveling there the last couple of years. But we will be back!
What a pleasure it is to have the consistency of your fabulous employees at Casa Velas year after year! Thank you!!
