Great place to stay in Brisbane

We had a large group staying and this was the perfect house with room to spare. Good location for Bisbane and Gold Coast day trips. Great communication from the host, who allowed us to check in a few hours early. Highly recommend.

Family home, lots of space

Great family accomodation, lots of room. Proximity to gun club a bit unnerving at times. Hot tub a great benefit.

Lovely Eccentric and Comfortable Home

We absolutely loved staying at Casa Encarnita! There was plenty of room to accommodate our large team, and enough space for those who needed quiet time to have it. Communication with the hosts was simple and clear. We had everything we needed and are keen to stay again next year if we can!

Perfect for our team from Singapore.

We were here Dec 2023. Lucky to have found Casa Encarnita within a short time frame. Maria and Frank (brother-sister owners) were very helpful from when we were making the booking to through our stay. The house is not new but it’s clean when we arrived. It is adequately equipped for cooking our nightly dinners, owners even brought a new and bigger rice cooker for our large group of 10. Yes the house can sleep 10 comfortably. I particularly like the Spanish feel of the house with paintings by the owners!
