It’s in the charming historical part of San Jose del Cabo. Only wish the pool was heated; I stay there in the winter.
Sandra, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wonderful week-long stay. The staff was very helpful and kind. The location is ideal. We felt lucky to be right in the historic district. Amazing restaurants feet away. Others have mentioned noise, but we simply used earplugs on festive nights. We plan to return.

We are regular guests at the Encanto and really enjoyed the ease of parking the comfort of the rooms the proximity to restaurants and shops and especially like the front office folks. Very nice. We will be coming back.

Very nice staff, clean comfy rooms. Local bars can be noisy till 2 am, run the a/c to drown out the music. Great location to centro.

Beautiful Hotel close to all the actuon

Lovely spacious room in the Art District of San Jose del Cabo. Close to shops and great restaurants. The courtyard, pool area and common spaces are beautifully decorated and inviting. The only negative is that the area can be a bit noisy at night as it is near nightlife. Earplugs dd the trick for me but this could be an issue if you are a light sleeper. Everything else was exemplary.
Raeleen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel was quaint and charming and perfectly located in the heart of the center. However, the music from surrounding bars and restaurants was very loud and didn’t stop until 3-4am!!

10/10 Exceptional

Upgraded room. I wasn't sure if they were honest when they said Expedia didn't pay room taxes so we had to pay that. I didn't see any line items for that on Expedia receipt. Been wanting to reach out to you to see if that was true.

Heaven in SJD

This was our last night in Baja, and being near the beach was no longer a necessity. El Encanto is the perfect place to land. There are countless food options within one block. We found a walking path nearby and then we relaxed in the pool and lovely garden. Our rooms were well appointed and the staff is so kind. We’ll be back.

4/10 Fair

I have stayed at this property at least a dozen times but this will be my last stay. They need to clean paint and update, it went from a unique boutique motel to a old run down overly exspensive motel
Rod, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We came back to El Encanto Inn after a five year break and found it to be much the same; a charming boutique hotel in a safe friendly town. The pool area and surrounding garden were lovely; a little oasis of tranquility in the busy el Centro area. Staff were very friendly and helpful. A few things around the room could be updated like putting fans in the bathrooms, but all in all a genuine Mexican style hotel with colourful decor.and comfy beds. It's very near stores and many restaurants - a few bars nearby a bit noisy, but earplugs help. Easily walkable to the beach and the estuary. Fun night time activities with the local people on the Plaza de Mijares at night. Will return again to this lovely place.
Nancy J., 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

The main property and common areas for this inn was beautiful with the landscaping being gorgeous. We were in “the annex” which also had lovely landscaping. The room was also nice but I would suggest they indicate you’ll be in the annex on the website. It was a little loud but nothing you wouldn’t expect being in the center of town. I would recommend they use better lighting in the room and some decor on a porch behind the room that was unused. You can tell the front desk deals with disappointed customers daily about the annex. I knew it was a possibility from the reviews so no complaints from me but no friendliness from her. If it’s that much of an issue, warn people on your website. Just be nice and friendly. We still enjoyed the pool and the restaurant next door is excellent. I would return so don’t be afraid to stay there.

2/10 Poor

Bait and Switch

After my Amex was swiped. They then told me our room was down the street in a different building, down an alley and up a staircase. My wife has a heart condition and cannot go upstairs. They had no elevator. We had 4 large bags as we have been traveling for weeks and they had no staff to help. The photo of the room that I thought I bought was nothing like the little dingy room they tried to put us in. They also charged us for our licensed service dog. I explained the situation and they said sorry but they can’t refund my card. We had to find another hotel.
