About this hotel
Nestled within lush gardens and a fertile hillside, El Encanto offers a serene retreat from the rhythm of city life. Terracotta rooftops peek through palms, winding pathways beckon quiet exploration, and each vantage point reveals a new horizon of sea and sky. Discover enduring California elegance: each room embraces seaside tranquility through luminous, flowing materials and regionally handcrafted pieces that mirror the peace beyond your windows. Radiant floor heating and crackling fireplaces provide warmth during cooler months, and marble bathing chambers offer luxurious relaxation. When spring arrives, swing wide your oceanfront doors and savor salt air from your private outdoor sanctuary.
Check-out until 11:00 AM.
