Wir waren zu Beginn unserer Rundreise 5 Nächte in dieser wunderschönen Unterkunft, und es war der perfekte Start in den Urlaub. Hier konnten wir sehr schnell erfahren, wie sich Pura Vida anfühlt. Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen und haben uns während des gesamten Aufenthalts sehr wohl gefühlt. Die kleinen Häuschen liegen in einem toll angelegten tropischen Garten, wo uns gleich bei der Ankunft die beiden Faultiere gezeigt wurden. Neben den herrlichen tropischen Pflanzen kann man Vögel, Schmetterlinge und kleine grüne Fröschlein, die wir nirgendwo sonst wieder gesehen haben, beobachten. Der Bungalow war sehr hübsch gestaltet mit allem, was man braucht und sehr sauber. Das Frühstück war lecker und man kann im Restaurant auch sehr gut zu Abend essen. Aber auch der Weg in den kleinen Ort mit vielen Restaurants ist kurz, gut beleuchtet und sicher. Zum schönen Playa Negra sind es nur ca 50 m über eine ruhige Anliegerstraße, perfekt. Der Service war hervorragend, besonders seitens der beiden Kollegen an der Rezeption, eine junge Dame und ihr junger Kollege, der gerade von ihr eingelernt wurde ( leider wissen wir die Namen nicht). Hier wurde uns bei jedem Anliegen sofort und kompetent geholfen- vielen Dank dafür!!! Norbert und Sabine

Hotel très beau: personnel pas à la hauteur. Nous sommes arrivés le 17 avril et n’avons dispose de la chambre que en fin d’après midi. Pas de problème en soi car la plage est en face. Le lendemain, nous sommes allés à nouveau à la plage pour revenir déjeuner à l’hôtel. La gérance de l’hôtel nous a empêché de nous baigner à la piscine (histoire de s’enlever le sable avant de déjeuner). Car le Check out avait déjà été fait et que la piscine était pleine. Après vérification, celle-ci était vide (photo avec heure à l’appui). Quel manque de sensibilité commerciale, gâchant un séjour très beau. Ce manque de sensibilité vient bien de la direction qui a laissé transmettre cette décision au personnel, sans aucun moment faire face. Le personnel, par contre, impeccable. Dernier point négatif: nous avons eu droit à l’utilisation d’une douche où quelqu’un avait déféqué auparavant. La moindre des choses , est de vérifier de temps en temps l’état des sanitaires…..(la photo existe mais nous ne souhaitons pas choquer)

Comfort, service, and nature at your doorstep We had an amazing time at El Encanto. Our room was comfortable and well outfitted, breakfast (and dinner) was tasty, the pools were great and the service was helpful and friendly. Our unexpected favorite part of the experience was the nature you could see from within the hotel walls - sloths (2)!, monkeys, frogs, iguanas and lots of birds. A great combo of luxury and nature.

Bestes Hotel der Reise Ein tolles Hotel, mit 2 schönen Pool, vielen Pflanzen, schönen Zimmer und sogar mit Moskitonetz. Faultiere und Iguanas auf dem Areal. Affen in Sichtweite in der Nachbarschaft und sogar Tukane gesehen. Cahuita ist eine Reisewert, ein schönes Dorf und Park. Das Frühstück ist eines der besten und sehr viel. Das Restaurant haben wir nicht probiert, da es im Dorf schöne Optionen hat.

Wonderful El Encanto We stayed for four nights in the Deluxe Suite upstairs from Reception and the restaurant. It is huge and comfortable. There is a very large living room with a kitchen at one end, a bedroom with a king bed, a second bedroom with two twin beds and a large bathroom. Also a wide hallway between the living room and main bedroom in front and the second bedroom and bathroom in back. Both the living room and the front bedroom have doors leading to a front veranda with - on one side - a table and four chairs and-on the other side - two lounges and a small table. The outside grounds were beautiful and beautifully maintained with two swimming pools, an outside shower, and lots of chairs and tables scattered around. Also on the grounds are a number of bungalows. We stayed in one of the bungalows the night we arrived, before moving to the Deluxe Suite, and it was also comfortable and well-maintained. The best thing about El Encanto is the staff. They answered lots of questions we posed before we arrived. While we were there they provided superb service including setting up two tours for us with excellent guides. The breakfast at the hotel, included in the price, is very good and the restaurant is excellent, although a bit pricier than some of the restaurants in town. The staff did everything we asked and went "above and beyond" on several occasions.

Wir hatten uns spontan eine Woche zu Silvester eingemietet, da die ursprünglich gebuchte Unterkunft (Playa Grande Lodge & Tree House) überhaupt nicht unseren Erwartungen entsprach. Die Anlage mit Pool ist super schön, Natur pur! Frühstück ist prima! Zur Playa negra braucht man 2 Min und zum Nationalpark ca. 10 Min. Mein Mann war krank und wurde liebevoll vom ganzen Personal betuddeld. Der Hotelmanager hat uns sogar zum Flughafen Limon gefahren. Hiermit noch mal herzlichen Dank an ALLE, Ihr wart super!!!

Beautiful property, very romantic vibe. Rooms were very clean, staff was friendly, included breakfast was awesome. I liked that the whole place is gated in. It felt very safe, like a secret little retreat. Great location, very walkable to beaches, food, and Cahuita National Park.
