Absolutely loved our stay at El Encuentro Surf Lodge! Everyone was so friendly, from the gardener to the waitresses, and the food was SO good. We loved it so much we actually wanted to extend our stay, but they were fully booked 😩
Everything we tried was delicious, but my favorites were the breakfast protein ball which they bring out as an appetizer, the burrata (which they also brought out as an appetizer) and the salmon with couscous and veggies. Everything tasted so fresh! They also have natural juices with no added sugar, and the pineapple one was my favorite.
We stayed in a double room, which was a little tight, so next time we’ll book a bigger one. But honestly, for the price, no complaints! I also loved that they had toys for the kids in the restaurant. It kept my toddler happy and busy, which made everything so much easier.
The area is super safe, family-friendly, and has such a cool surfer vibe. The beach is just a short walk away and is absolutely beautiful, with palm trees everywhere!
Honestly, I could go on and onnn! Already want to book our next stay!!
The the shower tiles were a bit slippery, so you just have to be careful.

I loved everything about this property. It was quiet and comfortable, geared for healthy clean lifestyle and surf! Staff were ever so friendly and happy to help.
Cost of board rentals and lessons in this area are higher than I expected.

The location was great the awesome customer service since you get there
My only complaint was during the breakfast time even tho all tables have announcements to not have speakers on or loud volume..several people were using their devices on speaker and video calls and non of the workers approached them to remind them that it wasn’t allowed ..I think business have the right to callout someone in those type of situations for the comfort of everyone there otherwise everything was perfect.
