i was almost ready to give this place a good review, but the noise from the staff was unbearable at 7am, ruined my mornings. plus, after the shabby shower experience I expected a complimentary drink to make up for it but got nada. they really should have better accommodations for their guests. very disappointing overall.

Traveled with my family for 5 nights and stayed in a Cottage right by the beach. The views were breathtaking, and the beach felt private and uncrowded. The fresh breakfast each morning was a highlight, especially the daily special that featured local flavors. The pool was just steps away and well-kept. Staff were super accommodating, arranging for surf lessons and a private tour to Manuel Antonio National Park, which made our experience richer. The cottage was clean and comfortable with a warm vibe. However, there was a minor inconvenience with a noisy critter in the ceiling that disturbed our sleep at night. Also, communication about late-night entry was unclear, as we had to honk multiple times for security to let us in. Despite these small setbacks, the warm hospitality and great amenities made our stay wonderful.

the beach area provides plenty of hammocks for relaxation. the spiral staircase might be hard to use.

My kids wished the beach access was a bit closer.

We really enjoyed our stay, especially the fun we had at the beach and the cozy vibe at the restaurant with some great dishes! The relaxing pool and cabana setup added to our downtime, making it a perfect getaway. Just a heads up, the shower could use a little sprucing up, but it didn’t take away from our overall experience. 😊

The beach area is stunning, providing a perfect backdrop for relaxation. The food at the onsite restaurant is top-notch with flavorsome options. The pool is clean and sparkly, surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens filled with tropical plants, making it a wonderful escape.

Noisy dogs.

The beach area offered stunning sunsets, perfect for relaxation. However, the shower could use some updates.

beautiful beach getaway with a few minor quirks

The beach area was uncrowded and stunning, making it a perfect spot for relaxation. The meal quality was impressive, especially the morning coffee in the lovely open-air restaurant. The clean, sparkly pool was a highlight, surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens filled with tropical plants.

The spiral staircase to the loft may be challenging for some guests.

Incredible Beachfront Experience!

I had such a wonderful time here! The oceanfront cottage we stayed in had beautiful double doors opening to the beach, and the massive deck made sunsets unforgettable. The open-air restaurant's breakfast was outstanding, featuring plentiful options that gave us the perfect start to the day. Plus, the pool was pristine and perfect for relaxation after a day on the beach. If I had to mention one improvement, it would be the shower area, which could use some sprucing up.

i had an amazing stay at encantada ocean cottages. the villas are spotlessly clean, and the beds are so comfortable. the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making sure all my needs were met. the beach here is just beautiful, with stunning sunsets that take your breath away. it felt like a little piece of paradise.
