Beautiful villa for friends and family week
We had an amazing 10 days at villa encantata. The staff was very attentive and the food was good. The location is across the bay from las gatos and la Ropa beaches but we took taxis and water taxis around each day for different experiences.This villa has a beautiful common area and a very good pool. Best suited for 4 couples. We had a 5th couple in the garden room which wasn’t as nice as the others but would be great for kids

RELAXING
We totally enjoyed our stay at Villa Encantada. From the moment Carlos met us at the airport until he walked us through the COVID test procedure we knew we were in great hands.
We came to relax and that is what the staff made possible for us. Let me tell you Carlos is connected. He knows everyone, and can solve every reasonable request you may have. The food was magnificent and we even had some laundry done while we were there. Came home with a suitcase full of clean clothes. We enjoyed the staff so much we insusted they eat with us on the final night and they agreed which made us VERY happy.
Go enjoy yourself and RELAX.

Just perfect!
The home is beautiful, the floor plan/layout is ideal for hanging out and having fun. Lovely pool. Spectacular views. The real winner is the staff-they couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. They helped with recommendations (Carlos set up a day trip to nearby La Perla beach where we were pampered in the sand) and Carlos arranged to repair a silver necklace I had from another trip. The food was fantastic-especially the tamales! AND they got a birthday cake and piñata for me!

Amazing !!!!!
This place is everything it says it is. You feel at home the minute you walk in with the staff there to greet you and welcome you. Carlo's was so helpful and arranging our excursions to massages in the Villa for my daughters 20th bday. We were a family of 7 adults and the rooms accommodated us all while giving you lots of privacy. I want to say thank you for sharing your lovely Villa with us I look forward to sharing this with friends next year. The food that was cooked for you everyday was the best Mexican food I've ever had.

Relaxation Paradise
The most relaxing vacation ever! Beautiful views, a wonderful staff.... And a low key, welcoming town within walking distance. We explored every other day and just relaxed in the pool on our down days. Weather was amazing and home cooked meals made us feel like locals! 8 adults had plenty of room and privacy yet the common areas accommodated everyone with plenty of space. Can't wait to come back a 3rd time!

Perfect Place for a Family Vacation
Villa Encantada lives up to its name. The setting is lovely, all the bedrooms super comfortable, the pool delightful and the staff wonderful in every way. Even though Zihua is a great little town and only a 5 or 10 minute walk away there was little reason to venture in. We ate most of our dinners in the house and they were frankly the best food we had on the trip. We were 9 adults and a 10 month old infant. Villa Encantada made traveling with her incredibly easy. Thanks for a great time. Hope to return.

Not a 5 star stay for the top price we paid. House needs updating and staff description edited.
I'll start by saying that this booking was made two weeks before our travel date because we had another 5 star house lost due to fraud. It was peak travel season so I knew we were going to be paying top $. I think that the property and staff were oversold to be a five star stay. When we arrived to the airport we had been told that Carlos would be there to pick us up. He was 2 hours late. When we finally arrived to the property the staff was frantically cleaning the house. It looked as though the house hadn't been stayed in a bit as televisions were off walls, mold was in the bedroom mini fridges, dirty pool, the deck had tons of ants and no hot water. We had visions of a friendly welcome to our vacation after a long day with cold drinks & snacks. The staff did their best getting the house ready and cooking us a late dinner even though it was New Years Eve. We found out they didn't know we were coming. Adrian was sweet to run down to the local market to get us a few cold drinks. Jeannine ended up giving us half of one nights stay refund. It was very nice not to have to cook or clean for a week and the food was good. We gave Carlos money and he did our grocery shopping. In the description of the house it says that Carlos would be available to drive us places and arrange excursions, but he wasn't very open to do this. He took us to the beach and he arranged/drove us to a fishing excursion. Other than that we walked or took the water taxi that was a short walk. Once, our kids took a Jacuzzi bath in one of the bedrooms because there wasn't a hot tub outside. They put the stopper in and filled it and then later all 10 of us took showers. We ended up getting "talked to" by Carlos about using so much water. We felt like we had done something wrong. Don't have a large soaker tub if you don't expect your guests to use it! Be careful getting to the "private beach" you have to trespass onto private property as no one showed us how else to get there. Be aware that most of the house is open to the outside. Each bedroom is fully enclosed and had locks but still a concern when you have kids. The air condition units in the rooms were a necessary amenity to a "5 star" house and once we replaced batteries in the remotes they worked. In the end, If you understand how things are in Mexico and ok with that, this is a nice house with a beautiful but over grown view. It needs updating and added touches to be considered a top $ luxury vacation.

Amazing spot! Amazing house! Amazing staff! What a great Christmas vacation for the family!!!!!!!!!!
The villa encantada was amazing.
5 big rooms, every room there own ensuite (shower + toilet)
4 of them with a amazing balcony a view over the bay.
The infinite pool ..... perfect.
Fun to walk to the fish market every morning for the catch of the day! We even got tuna for a big tartare!
The chef was good, we ask her specific stuff but most of the time it was classic Mexican food. Ask them to start the charcoal grill, fish filet on that is incredible!
Thanks for the amazing week!
We will be back

Amazing location, villa, and staff
Villa Encantada is a jewel perched on several levels on the cliff in Puerto Mio, a 20 minute walk from the north end of Zihua, and about 25 minutes from the market area. The photos are entirely accurate and yet cannot capture the actual breathtaking beauty of the rooms, the decks, the views to the sea, and that astonishing infinity pool.
Yet truly it is the staff that make this villa an outstanding and most memorable holiday. It was hard to consider going out for dinner when Socorro and Perla could make sumptuous meals including the famed coconut shrimp, excellent enchiladas con pollo, and puerco con salsa verde. Breakfast treats like soaps, chiliquales, huevos rancheros... Fresh ceviche for lunch, or quesadillas with guacamole and salsa fresca! We were spoiled all week long!
Carlos, the Manager, is likewise amazing. His helpful suggestions about massages in the villa, arranging for transport to and from the airport, picking up groceries on our first night, all these as well as arranging a fantastic birthday piñata celebration - he was always there when we needed him. Professional and warm, he was lovely. In sum, Carlos was over the top!!!
Adrian too was an excellent addition to the ease of our stay. The pool was well cared for, the grounds well kept, and maintenance attended to. Each of the staff were wonderfully present and available, yet never intrusive.
I hesitate to write such a positive review, because selfishly we want to come back to Villa Encantada. Yet when such amazing places filled with great people exist, it is also important to share that experience. Should you book this place, you won't be disappointed!

Absolutely Fabulous
We were 4 couples looking to escape brutal weather in Chicago and couldn't have picked a better spot! We were nervous about sharing a house (have traveled together before, but always stayed at a resort) - but this was perfect! Every room had a view, private balcony and bathroom. The most wonderful outdoor living space that was just spectacularly relaxing and beautiful. But truly, what REALLY made our stay so heavenly, was the amazing staff. Truly, we are ruined for Mexican Food. Everything was so fresh and delicious. They were all so nice and friendly, but absolutely gave us our space, etc. We hated to leave. (And I almost don't want to give such a glowing review in order to keep it our secret, but...it really was wonderful!). A close walk to town - not that we actually left very often and a beach to snorkel from right down the road! Cannot thank you enough for sharing your home!
