Thank you so much for staying at our condo. We try to make a special home for a wonderful holiday in a tropical paradise! Cheers! Valerie and Stephanie
Our group of 6 adults had a wonderful time! The unit was clean and all amenities were as described. The beach clubs were particularly enjoyable and the sunrise views from the pool deck were fantastic. We will be back!
We had a wonderful stay in Punta Mita. The condo was perfectly appointed for our family and even had sand toys for the kids. The private clubs in the resort were wonderful and the kids played all day in the pool and ocean. Highly recommend!

Perfect Place for a Perfect Vacation
This was our 5 trip to Punta Mita but first at El Encanto. This was a perfect place for our family of 5, which includes two 5 year old girls. More than enough room and the plunge pool was perfect for the kids. We plan on being back next year.

We are thrilled that you enjoyed your holiday at both our condo and Punta Mita. We strive to give you the best holiday experience possible! Thank you for your wonderful review.
The plunge pool was the highlight of this property. The kids were in it almost everyday. And there was plenty of space for a family of 7 (grandparents, adults and kids). The area is beautiful and we loved being able to check out a new beach club every day!
The condo was very spacious, well decorated, and included everything we needed. The daily maid service was a luxury. Punta Mita is beautiful and very safe. Beach clubs were top notch. Highly recommend!

We are extremely happy that you enjoyed your stay both at our home and at the fabulous Punta Mita Resort. We have remained almost covid free due to enhanced safety protocols and the cooperation of all that stay and visit here. This is a special place! We hope to have you visit again. Cheers!

This is a beautiful condo inside the gates in Punta Mita. Perfect for families. Plenty of room for everyone to have some privacy but lots of opportunities to be together as well. The private pool was so nice to have. We enjoyed it as much as the beach club pools. Kitchen is well equipped and plenty of towels. Will definitely come again.
Property was as described and owner was available and flexible. Loaned us her golf clubs for the duration of the visit. We experienced a few minor issues that were promptly resolved by either the owner or the Punta Mita staff.

We appreciate all comments and endeavour to address the information we receive to continue as well as improve our guests’ holiday experience. Thank you for your honest and positive review.
Best concierge service we’ve ever had in Punta Mita
ConciergeMax Meza was fabulous even after I had a million annoying questions—best concierge we’ve ever had in Punta Mita. The unit was good overall, linens were nicer than in previous rentals but the condo itself could use some upgrades, the master jacuzzi was not aging gracefully and some of the furniture was worn. Great housekeeping though.

Family stay at Encanto
We had a wonderful stay at Encanto! It was awesome having the golf cart to visit all the various beach clubs and then be able to relax back at pool in afternoon.
Stephanie was amazingly accommodating helping us with car seats, back and play, booster seats which made packing for our 3 kids a breeze. She also arranged airport transfers, dinner reservations and 2 nights at home with a chef.
We had an amazing time and look forward to returning!

Max our concierge was very accommodating and helpful. The unit was clean and spacious. Neither one of the TV's worked in the unit. It could use some nicer linens and an update. The house keeper was very friendly and did a good job. OverallI gave it a 3 because it was a little outdated. El Encanto the community is very nice.

Hi Kelly, sorry to hear about your troubles with the TV. I was not aware of any issues so if you could let me know if it was the Shaw satellite signal that was not working, the smart TV apps, or the Apple TV that would be great.
We always do our best to buy premium linens, however I will definitely have Max check all our linens to make sure they are all in good shape and good quality.
Thank you
Stephanie
This property was amazing!! It is JUST as described if not better. It was perfect for our family of 6, it felt so spacious! The pool out back is a definite plus and the golf cart was a lifesaver!! Valerie and Stephanie were the best hosts ever! Their response to every email we sent was answered quickly and they didn't seem bothered by all our questions :) The location of the condo is perfect and the access to the beach clubs was great. I have nothing but good things to say about this property, location and the owners!! It was a perfect week and we hope to come back to Punta Mita and would definitely stay here again!! Thank you Stephanie and Valerie for letting us enjoy your beautiful home!!

We take the opportunity to provide a high quality of service and accommodation to our guests as our top objective and are always thrilled to have guests enjoy the ultimate holiday in this spectacular resort and at our home. Thank you for staying in El Encanto.
We loved Max taking care of us. He was quicker to respond than owner and was super attentive to our questions and needs over the trip. The house was very clean, the private pool was great and the location was the best.
A few issues have kept us from making this a 5 star review. There was a sizeable charge for having one extra guest, our 1 year old granddaughter who ended up not being able to come with her parents due to hospitalization and we have yet to receive our money back for that. The pool was over 100 degrees. Max came to fix it but couldn’t find a fix so we ended up turning the heater off. The WiFi doesn’t go through the whole house. There was construction next door that was loud that was never noted in the listing.
Overall great house but the lack of communication and issues would make us look elsewhere the next time we visit.

Gem of a condo!
This was the second time we have rented this condo for our family vacation. This is a true gem of a condo that I would really like to keep hidden as we think it is the perfect place to stay. We love the location of this unit and it's peaceful surroundings. The condo looks just like the pictures on line. It is kept in excellent condition, very clean, and has nice finishes and comfy furnishings. The unit is well stocked with most everything you will need including some beach toys and floats. The outdoor living area is spectacular and the larger size pool was a true bonus that we enjoyed everyday. A golf cart is provided for your use during the stay which is a great way to get not only to the residents beach club but also to the town just outside the gates. The premier golf membership is another bonus as we were able to enjoy both the tennis and golf facilities. The owner and her daughter, who is the property manager, are a joy to work with. We did have one small issue with the golf cart not working properly and Stephanie was right on top of the situation and handled our problem efficiently and effectively. She is also a great resource for recommendations for water activities, rentals, restaurants, or whatever else you may need. They help make the stay absolutely perfect. This is a true slice of paradise and can't wait to return next year for our third time!

With these COVID-19 times, it is wonderful to have guests enjoy their time at our home and a respite from the pandemic. Thank you for your review.
Was in Punta Mita for a wedding at the St Regis and decided against staying at the resort and opting for something larger yet close by. The property was clean and spacious. Had a great view of the golf course. AC was strong and functional despite a note prior to our arrival that it may have issues. Communication with the property managers were prompt. Would absolutely stay here again

The seclusion, security and dependability of the weather have made this a true tropical paradise for our family and friends.

The two golf courses can be booked with discounted green fees. There are top rated tennis tennis courts with pickle ball also available and work out facility, with applicable fees. These amenities have provided all ages of family including young grandchildren and friends with a memorable holiday experience and time shared together.
Why they chose this property
The dependability of the weather has been outstanding. The immense diversity of activities and amenities provided in a safe, secure environment for all ages from small children to teenagers to young adults was an extremely important factor in our choice to purchase a property here. The water is triple-filtered so very safe to drink, there is 24/7 medical care available, the playground and warm swimming pool at the Pacifico beach club have all contributed to the enjoyment of this area. The entertainment area and kids Club and kids recreation area at the Kupuri Beach Club proved wonderful entertainment for children of all ages.There are kayaks and boogie boards at the Pacifico Beach Club, El Surf Club and Kupuri Beach Club. All ages of friends and family have experienced the magnificence of this beautiful and unique area of the world. The Kupuri Beach Club also has superb spa services available for a fantastic relaxing experience. For a beautiful, smaller club experience there is the Ocean Club with a pier and a floating island. El Surf Club offers great boogie boarding and surfing. This is 5 star luxury at its best! All beach clubs have outstanding restaurants. The condo itself offers the larger, private,heated pool and larger outdoor living space with a BBQ so this provided great outdoor social time for all ages as well as privacy. There is also a large yard next to the condo to toss a frisbee, play catch or bocci ball. The condo faces east with beautiful sunrises and excellent afternoons in shaded comfort after “beach days.” With the orientation of the condo, sunsets are also to be enjoyed. Pool toys, beach toys and boogie boards await you at the condo.
