Rustic charm and very comfortable.

Absolutely lovely stay, very comfortable room and bed, lovely private terrace, this is a rustic guesthouse with lovely elements, little courtyard, breakfast room, great self check in, plunge pool was sadly empty as we would have loved a dip as it was hot but I assume it's out of season. All in all a very chilled and comfortable stay

We had a wonderful stay at Encanto Guesthouse. The room was spacious and clean with lots of lovely extras. The facilities around the guesthouse were great too - we loved the roof terrace and the plunge pool but the snack station was also great. The hosts are amazing and always happy to help. They also make an awesome breakfast which was the highlight of every morning!

Lovely small hotel based in the centre of a lovely small town (Canillas de Aceituno). The Dutch owners were very friendly, always making sure we were OK and the breakfasts were amazing. Bargain price and had a good nights sleep every night, would recommend. No parking at the hotel, but managed to park nearby every day no issues... imagine it will be much more difficult in summer.

Einfach ein wunderschöner Ort mit mehr als netten Gastgebern. Das Guesthouse ist in einem ruhigen Ort in dem es aber auch Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants gibt. Hier gilt es zu beachten das Montags und teilweise auch Dienstags geschlossen ist. Man hat kostenlose Parkmöglichkeiten wenn man mit dem Auto anreist. Die Unterkunft ist sauber und das Frühstück wird extra für jeden Tisch zubereitet. Wir waren hier auf der Durchreise und hatten eine schönen Tag.

Jess und Gess haben sich super um uns gekümmert. Jeden Morgen gab es leckeres und personalisiertes Frühstück für uns. Sie haben sich Mühe gegeben und waren sehr aufmerksam,was Allergien und Unverträglichkeiten angeht. So hatte ich jeden Morgen ein leckeres Frühstück! Die Umgebung ist super,man ist innerhalb von 30-40 Minuten an den tollsten Stränden,Sehenswürdigkeiten und Hot Spots. Vom Hotel aus sind es 10 Minuten Fußweg zum Wanderpunkt. Traumhafte Kulissen und ein süßes kleines Dorf in den Bergen! Die Terrasse war das Highlight des Zimmers. Insgesamt ein toller Aufenthalt!

Job and Gess have created a little oasis in town where you feel at home right away. They were very accommodating with food intolerances and we enjoyed the homemade breakfasts. The patio and dip pool are great! You have some stores, restaurants and cafés around and the town is near other bigger towns like Vélez-Málaga. Great experience!

Encanto is a charming boutique hotel centrally located in Canillas de Aceituno. The owner provides excellent explanations and warm hospitality. The breakfast is delicious, and the value for money is unbeatable. Room 5, situated quietly in the courtyard, uniquely offers direct access to the pool. Overall, a wonderful place for a relaxing stay.

Don't choose room 5

I was really excited to stay at this guesthouse but when we arrived it was difficult to find our room, even with instructions. We were disappointed in our room specifically. The other rooms looked amazing and spacious, our #5 was not. It was also an interesting design to have the sink in the shower. I understand making a room out of the area to make more money but we found numerous spiders/bugs and there just was no space to move around. Also, I think that if you put on your website that every room has a minibar and plunge pool, that each room should have these. This was not the case, they were communal amenities. The breakfast was good though.
