Encantada Ocean Cottages

I recently co-led my first yoga retreat at Encantada Ocean Cottages, and I could not have been more pleased with the experience! Everything went smooth, our students were happy, and the staff at Encantada made everything so easy! The hotel is right on the beach and it felt like we had the whole beach to ourselves! We will be back next year!

Superschöner Strand Kleines aber feines Hotel direkt am flach abfallenden und feinen Sandstrand. Perfekt für Surfanfänger Restaurant mit kleiner Karte. Leckere Gerichte und gute Drinks.

We were staying nearby but the food and atmosphere here was much better than our hotel. Very good service from a young Costa Rican/Canadian young waitress. Food was of good quality. Portions are large and we always shared a starter and main course. Fish tacos are excellent. On Thursday evening they have a happy hour with a live band. Would definitely go back again.

The friendly and welcoming staff bring this beautiful boutique hotel to life. The rooms are nicely furnished and very clean. The heated swimming pool is excellent, and the hotel grounds are lush and well maintained. There’s the option for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the food is well prepared and delicious. The hotel is right up against one of the best beaches in Costa Rica. Highly recommend, and we’ll be back!

Loved the whole vibe and all employees. We had issues w a big roach in our loft and a bat moving around above son’s bed and dropping dust or maybe guano on his pillow.

Beautiful location and relaxing experience, with some exceptions (Dogs barking next door) Liked · Overall, we enjoyed the experience of being in an uncrowded and beautiful beach area. The staff is amazing, especially Diana and all the wait staff. We stayed in Cabina #4 and we loved our space. We enjoyed the well cooked meals and the morning coffee at the beautiful open air restaurant. We felt it was a good value compared to the adjacent hotel restaurant (La Alma) We enjoyed the warm, sparkling swimming pool and the immaculate maintenance of the gardens and the grounds. Our room was perfect for two people...bedding was comfortable and luxurious. The room would have been too small for more than one couple and possibly a child in the loft above. The loft was accessed by steep spiral staircase and we never went there. A/C worked well and kept us comfortable day and night. Yoga classes for $15 were offered daily, and the leader was wonderful and accommodating of all levels. Very spiritual and relaxing. Disliked · This cabin is adjacent to the restaurant and office. It was noisy with conversations from staff sometimes, especially early mornings and late at closing time. The adjacent property to the north had 2 dogs which would howl and bark. Several guests commented to us that they were in rooms adjacent to the property and they were very disturbed. We could hear the dogs every day, but were further away. Those dogs really are a negative issue with this hotel. Be sure you get a room as far from the residence as possible. Owners would take the dogs for walks on the beach, and the dogs would bark until they got to go for their walks, and often during the day, not at night.
