The property is beautiful, quiet, close to the beach and a short walk from town. Laurent, at reception, was extremely helpful regarding recommendations for activities and transportation. Sara, also at reception, was very helpful for setting up tours. The restaurant’s snapper in coconut sauce was delicious.

The cottages were perfect, great bathrooms, air conditioning, fans, comfortable beds but with awful pillows. The grounds were also perfect and beautiful with two small swimming pools. What needs improvement is their customer service. They made a mistake with the number of beds in our room. Instead of comping us or apologizing, they had us wait and pay an extra fee for the additional bed. We were never given complimentary drinks as per their cards in the room, nor were we given two for one drinks during happy hour. I asked on two occasions before booking if the restaurant provides vegan breakfast and if they have vegan choices for dinner. The breakfast was by far the worst breakfast we had in Costa Rica. I was offered dry stale bread with thin slices of avocado and two slices of tomato. No rice and beans like all the other hotels. The fruit was delicious. We had dinner once there on our first night and the bean burger was soft and not good so we decided not to eat there again. If visiting this area again, I would not stay here and probably stay in the Punta Uva area with better beaches, restaurants, more hotels to choose from and just more to do overall. This hotel has a lot going for it but the customer service and subpar food has made us think twice. Coffee only available after 7am even though tours start early in Costa Rica and you’re up at 4:30 or 5, and there is no coffee, and the breakfast we were given to go had no vegan options.

Amazing little hotel across the street from the beach. Fantastic restaurant, coffee shop/deli right on the beach as well. Sloths in the trees, birds, super nice for such a small and remote town.

I absolutely loved this hotel. Spent my birthday here. Staff are fantastic, grounds are beautiful, breakfasts are great. Excellent location - a short walk to restaurants and the national park. It’s spotlessly clean as well and has aircon. It even has its own resident wild sloth in the gardens as well as lizards and frogs. There is nothing not to like, really enjoyed it 10/10

We loved our stay at Hotel El Encanto. The pool was the perfect temperature and never too crowded. The restaurant onsite had great food and drinks. We got a two bedroom room and it was spacious and comfortable. During our stay we saw multiple frogs and a toucan; it was a great experience! And the town of Cahuita had so many great restaurants and little shops, but wasn't super crowded our touristy - we loved it!

Across the road from little local beaches, the hotel and our cabana felt like an oasis to return to after snorkeling in the national park or hiking. The staff were very helpful and we enjoyed our stay. We saw sloths and monkeys right on the property.

Perfect stay: the property is beautiful (amazing garden, with many frogs and birds), nice pool (warm, but not too warm!), the beach is walking distance, so is the heart of the city with shops and restaurants. Suggestion: something extra with the eggs at breakfast ? After nice fruits and toasts (with delicious jam!), we got some fried eggs later alone on a plate is a bit odd. Maybe bringing them at the beginning / together with everything else would have helped. Service was pleasant: very nice people ! The Cahuita park is close by and is a gem. We stayed two nights in a superior room with a king bed: these are in isolated bungalow, very privy and comfy.

This property is so beautiful! The quietness...the ambience, the food, the wildlife, everything was beautifully amazing. The staff was so kind and accommodating. Playa Negra is just a couple minute walk down the street. Where you can enjoy a local beer, music or some good food.

The grounds are beautiful and the room was beautiful. The woman that checked us in was very nice too. The problem started when we came back from our time walking around. The couple above us were walking around their room until 10 pm and sounded like a herd of buffalo. When we could no longer stand it, we went and asked the young woman watching the desk if she could help us out as we had a 6:00am departure the next morning. She clearly had NO customer service sense and very snotty answered, “what would you have me do? Tell them to not walk?” She then proceeded to tell us that 3 other guests had complained and the resort was waiting for supplies from Spain(???) to fix the room. HOW RIDICULOUS. Even expressing some sympathy would have gone a long way. Then, the same two women who stayed above us took our packed breakfast that was prepared by the resort for us to take as we could not stay for the included breakfast in our booking. Apparently the resort did not bother to put a label on our breakfast to go.
