About this property
3 BR tropical oasis - pool, forest and waterfall
This Ranch-Style estate is located in the middle of a beautiful valley surrounded by acres of primary rain forest. Getting there you will enjoy spectacular views of the valley of El Guabo, one of the most beautiful and hidden places of Costa Rica.

About the host
Hosted by Ana Maria Smith
We are a family of five that fell in love with the beauty and tranquility of the valley of El Guabo where El Encanto Estate is located. Our vision is to restore and preserve the farm where El Encanto estate is located and convert it into a model for sustainable development. El Encanto has been our sanctuary of peace and happiness. We invite you to be part of its history.
Why they chose this property
When my oldest son turned 15 yrs old his dream was to learn how to surf. I heard that Costa Rica was an amazing place for surfing so I decided to take my family for a vacation. The moment that we got to Costa Rica we fell in love with it's people and it's land. From that moment I knew that it was the perfect place for us to have a second home. I explored the country for a year and a half until I found my dream, EL ENCANTO. It has been the best adventure of my life.
Exploring the South Pacific was a fantastic adventure and we believe it is the most attractive area of the country.
Exploring the South Pacific was a fantastic adventure and we believe it is the most attractive area of the country.
What makes this property unique
To have access right from our backyard to a tropical rain forest with a hiking trail that leads to a 200 ft. pristine waterfall. Have you ever had the thrill of a rain forest massage? Come and enjoy the waterfall at Finca El Encanto.
The property is part of an agroecological organic farm system and reforestation project.
