“IS IT OPEN?”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012

The last review talks of their experience before the closure. I was up there in 2009 after the fire and it did not look at all like these pictures. I have been trying to book a stay since 2007 because I love the El Encanto as pictured. I just don't think it looks or is like this today.

“Imagine once the work is complete”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 July 2011

We stayed here before the closure. The grounds were extraordinary as was the dining room. The rooms were tired, so a makeover will be nice.
