A garden that in it's center has a beautifully maintained pool and padded lounge chairs to escape to. Double doors to the ground level rooms open... More

“Dear to our hearts...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 May 2013

My husband and I got married at El Encanto Inn this past April. I can't say enough about this charming boutique hotel. The service was top-notch (Eduardo is a true gentleman and a master at hospitality), the rooms were clean and decorated beautifully, the pool and landscaping were extremely well-kept and the spa was amazing!

Right in the heart of the Art District in San Jose Del Cabo, this charming hotel offers a quaint and comfortable stay. Extremely clean, accommodating, friendly staff and a beautifully tranquil central pool area and gardens make this Inn a 'must stay' if you yearn to be away from the thick of the busy touristy area's.

The hotel has a great, central location just a few blocks from San Jose center. Find within the same quaint block several restaurants, including the Baja Brewing Co., Thai, Italian, and a wifi-enabled coffee shop; as well as a few art galleries.

The room was large and comfortable, although a bit dark in the bathroom. The bathroom is created by a high wall that is more of a... More

“Paradise in the heart of San Jose”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 March 2013

After visiting La Paz and Loreto we thought it was time for Cabo. Not San Lucas, but the real Cabo, Cabo del San Jose. We read too many reviews online and in travel books. I had no desire to have the mega-resort, all-inclusive, don't-experience-real-local-life experience. I finally called El Encanto direct and spoke with Eduardo. That call sealed the deal.... More
