The accommodations, cleanliness and staff are very nice. The lagoon was calm when we visited and it was fun to use the kayaks and the boat tour of the lagoon originating right from the little pier at the hotel was exemplary. The only thing that was a bit annoying was the loud sound of leaf blowers to disturb the calm of this lovely resort so maybe not doing that every day would be so much better or hand raking…

We stayed at Rancho Encantado for the weekend, and it was an incredible experience. A special thank you to José at the restaurant, his service was outstanding. Also, Vega, the paddleboard instructor, was amazing. Such a kind and patient person. He really helped my wife feel comfortable trying new things, she even went kayaking and paddleboarding, which she normally wouldn’t do! The sunrise over the lagoon was absolutely beautiful, and the water is simply stunning. We also did the 2-hour lagoon tour, and it was a great experience. We truly enjoyed it. The food deserves a special mention: excellent quality, and the presentation of each dish was professional and impressive. All the staff were welcoming, and the atmosphere of the place makes you want to stay more than just a couple of nights. We will definitely come back. And the photos we took are just beautiful!
