El Encanto is an artful, luxury view home with generous patios and private landscaped grounds. We offer three charming suites—ideal for families or multiple couples. Individual suites also available.

Art is a central theme, with folkart collected over years of Mexico travel, plus contemporary nature-inspired works, and whimsical touches that will surprise and delight. An eclectic mix of handcrafted furniture, traditional wood windows, and oriental carpets throughout convey an intimate timeless feel. Many people have said that it is like living in one of Diane's paintings.

Comfort-designed for southern Baja's famously mild climate, rooms spill out onto generous covered patios, sheltered from stiff winter nortes and open to the gentle breezes of summer. Private walled gardens put some of Baja's showiest natives on display, complemented by desert-adapted plants from throughout the world. Flowers attractive to hummingbirds and butterflies, plus birdbaths and feeders, keep the gardens lively!

Our home is close to beach, restaurants, dive center and other local services—all in easy walking distance, and our English speaking property managers will assure your best vacation ever.

This house is truly a labor of love. See more details and our availability calendar on our website (link below). We think you'll be delighted!

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Diane and Rob

Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Rob and I designed El Encanto to be the kind of place we'd love to stay in with integrated indoor/outdoor living bringing us in contact with nature and full of art. We thought of the house and gardens as a giant art project. It was truly a labor of love and took us two years to build, working closely with local craftsmen.

The Unique Benefits of this House

It is rare to live with so much beauty and art and nature, and El Encanto provides a truly unique vacation experience which is sure to be memorable.

    • El Encanto Inn is truly an enchanted place created by true artists. Over the four days we stayed there, I continued to notice one exquisite little detail after another. The whole place is a real jewel. Your every want has been anticipated. I could have spent the whole visit just sitting in one or another of the several garden areas to watch the huge variety of birds and enjoy the spectacular gardens. Our only disappointment was the wind which blows intermittently along the coast from November until March so stay a week instead of four days. Do not miss the the waterfall; directions are included in the very informative notebook provided. We will return.

      "When you pull into the driveway, prepare to be blown away. You walk through the gates guarded by the Bandito and stand in the midst of the garden filled with buzzing bees, birds and other natural wonders. Yes, the website pictures are all true--the colors, the furniture, the paintings--it was all there. You will LOVE this place...from the hospitality of Karl and Kimmie to the DVD collection to the very curious hummingbirds, this place is for sure, a slice of paradise. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!"

      "I don't even know how to begin…. Your house is a masterpiece. I thought I would never be so bold with form and color, but now my eyes are open. Your house is like a dream vacation in itself, stuck in my imagination. Thank you for the inspiration!"

      "We just returned from a week at your desert palace and couldn't have been more delighted! There was everything needed... hand cream in the bathrooms, flashlights in the drawer, hot water in the tiled showers, orange juice maker and coffee in the kitchen... two fabulous hosts who were there when we needed them but never invading our privacy. Kimmie's cooking was excellent... her key lime pie was soo good... even our teenaged grandson raved about her dishes. We kept discovering paintings and folk art and mosaics... like we were living in a museum. The garden sculptures, plants, and birds made for great watching... the fountain a work of art in itself. Lizards during the day and geckoes at night... bat rays jumping in the sea. The second story hammocks and patio were another favorite place for just hanging out waiting for sunrises and sunsets to colour the sky. Thank you for sharing this amazing place... we loved it!"
