A little more about our beach house:

While this is listed as 8 beds (10 people), Room #2 (with the two bunk beds) has a bunk bed with a single on the top and a FULL on the bottom which our two young daughters love to share, so if you really need the space, you can sleep 11. The 3rd room is a casita which is perfect for older kids who wants time away from the adults.

Food:
We frequently visit the local fish market, where you can buy shrimps and fresh fish for a great price. There is a nice BBQ grill outside, along with a sitting area. For groceries, you can visit Sam's Club or Walmart just 15min away, that is where we do most of our shopping (I will send you Google map links to everything)

Later in the day as the sun starts to set, light up the fire pit and enjoy the amazing sunset on the beach. When night falls, turn off all the lights in the house and go stargazing; The visibility at night is beyond this world.

We loved the house! The location was awesome—right on the beach! The house could use a few more dishes particularly glasses. There were only some mugs. But overall we loved our stay and would go back again! The owner was very nice to work with. Thanks!

An everything bagel vacation home

Communication with Liad was amazing leading up to our stay! Provided my family and I with plenty of instructions on what to expect checking in, during and check out. This lovely home had everything we needed and more! The home smelled clean and fresh right when we walked in! My kids enjoyed all the beach toys provided and obviously the gorgeous view! We have stayed in Playa Encanto a number of times and this place is definitely our favorite so far!

Need of new updates

Needs to get updates, it tells you about all these amenities it has but everything is old and in bad conditions. Doesn't quite feel safe The host does communicate with you well ill give them 10/10 for that. The place is just not what you expect.

Lovely on the beach!

Overall we really enjoyed our stay and shared the following feedback with the property owners which is the reason for the 3-star review: To property owners : We had a great time and love the location and access to the ocean! That said, you should know there are some things that are broken, not useable. Both white plasticlounge chairs are broken. The boogie board is coming apart, the kayak has broken seats and all the paddles are cracked or broken, the folding beach chairs are rusted closed and won't open. The sliding glass door handle is broken and also the screen door comes off the track very easily with normal opening and closing. Also the King Sized bed is starting to sag pretty badly. It could definitely use an upgrade. The kitchen is great and everything else seems to be in good condition and we did enjoy having WiFi and Netflix access. Again we have enjoyed our time but wanted to make you aware of these things.

Beachfront Oasis

This was an incredible property with plenty of room for our group. The house was clean and well maintained with all the necessities for the weekend. Garage was an added bonus as parking can get a little tight with multiple vehicles. Overall an incredible spot for the right price and impeccable location!

Beautiful Property, Great Owners!

The owner is quick to communicate and answer any questions. The house itself is in great condition. Very clean. My kids loves having access to Netflix and Disney+ on the t.v. The wifi was strong and supported our large group. We didn't hear any neighbors and had enough space to spread out. There's lots of beds and places to sleep. The AC works great! Which is a huge plus! There was a kayak, boogie boards, and sand toys for us to use. Which we really appreciated! I would recommend bringing bug spray, we had to run into town for some. As soon as the sun goes down the mosquitos are terrible. There are also biting flies in the early morning (the bites don't itch just sting a little). So we avoided the beach in the early morning and evenings. That has more to do with the location, not the house itself. It's a 20 min drive into town. Playa Encanto is beautiful! The beach felt very private. There wasn't a lot of people and noise around and it was a holiday weekend when we were there. Would definitely recommend anyone who wants to stay here to stay!! We look forward to coming back!!

Great beach house in Playa Encanto

We always rent houses in Playa Encanto or Las Conchas when making a trip to Rocky Point. The house was clean, all of the basic amenities were available, and location is great. Communication with the owner was on point and we had no issues finding or checking into the property. This property is connected on both sides to identical houses so it is not a stand alone house but is more like a duplex. The only thing we didn’t like was that the bedroom which has the queen bed was built into the garage as a casita and does not have a connected bathroom. If staying in that room you have to walk across the courtyard to the main house to use the restroom. Otherwise this is a great house right on the beach and was perfect for our vacation.

Birthday weekend

It was great experience, it’s 20-30 min away from rocky point. We went In January so the weather is still a little cold but we enjoyed our stay, we were able to explore the beach, they provide lots of sand toys and literally everything you need for the kids so all you need to bring is your clothes. We brought food to cook there and found they they provided all the cooking utensils we needed. The check in was super easy and we didn’t have to make contact with anyone which is nice during COVID.

Zaidens 1st family vacay

This is such a hidden gem❣it has everything and more that you will need on your vacation. We really enjoyed the kayak, played some games, kitchen was well equipped with essential, each bed came w a towel. Security guards are really doing a good job, the area is very quiet, the roof top terrace is a picture perfect location for those spectacular captures of the sunset. Owner was very easy to communicate with, allowing to get help anytime. I'd come stay over and over!
