El Encanto de la Laguna is a boutique, guard-gated beachfront community in the La Laguna area of San José del Cabo, known for a “quiet beach” feel, traditional Mexican hacienda architecture, and limited inventory. From an ownership perspective, the hierarchy is clear: the most sought-after properties are the oceanfront villas on the first row, followed by second, third, and fourth-row villas that can deliver excellent ocean views depending on elevation and line. A smaller portion of inventory consists of oceanview condominium residences for buyers who prefer a more lock-and-leave format. The lifestyle is supported by an on-site beach club that anchors the community’s quiet, owner-focused beachfront rhythm.
El Encanto is not a mega master plan. It’s boutique by design—an intentionally limited beachfront enclave just outside the San José core. The draw is the combination of (1) a calmer, residential atmosphere, (2) a Sea of Cortez beachfront setting near the San José lifestyle center, and (3) a product mix that fits both full-time living and seasonal ownership.
El Encanto’s lifestyle is simple and highly desirable: a gated beachfront setting with a residential pace, easy walkability inside the community, and convenient access to San José’s restaurants, art district, and everyday services. A defining amenity is the community beach club, which supports an owner-centric beachfront lifestyle and complements the community’s mix of beachfront villas and phase-based oceanview condominiums.
Buyers typically shop El Encanto through two primary tracks: (1) oceanview condominium residences offered across distinct phases—ideal for turnkey, lock-and-leave ownership—and (2) beachfront homes for more space, privacy, and hosting capacity. Inventory is limited, and the best opportunities usually come down to choosing the right phase, line, and terrace orientation.
Pricing here is driven by beachfront positioning, view quality, layout usability, condition/finish level, and how turnkey the property feels. A briefing helps you understand what trades quickly, which lines are rare, and how to negotiate based on recent comps rather than list-price narratives.
Request Market BriefingForeign buyers typically purchase in Los Cabos through a bank trust (fideicomiso) or a strategy-specific structure advised by legal counsel. In El Encanto, diligence commonly focuses on title clarity, HOA governance, beach access considerations, and confirming the condominium regime documentation for the exact phase/building you’re buying in.
El Encanto rewards buyers who understand the community’s hierarchy—oceanfront first-row villas, then elevated interior rows—and how row, line, and terrace orientation impact daily livability and resale. We help you evaluate privacy, terrace usability, maintenance realities of coastal ownership, and HOA rules that affect rentals or future updates—so you buy with clarity and confidence.
