5BR Cabin in Tapalpa

Elizabeth

Excellent, 3 weeks ago

I went with my parents and sisters and we really enjoyed the stay. It's a great place. The only thing is that the pillows are not comfortable at all.

I had a great weekend with friends and family at Cabaña El Encanto. Caro's communication was good and simple, clear rules and correct attention. Upon arrival we had a brief problem with the entrance door, it seems that the humidity swelled the wood and it could not be opened, however, the person in charge who received us, found a quick solution. The truth is that the cabin is in a prime location, especially if you intend to rest and disconnect from everything. The sunset landscapes, the star-filled sky, and the lake helped clear the mind at all times.

I recommend both the listing and the host. The accommodation is spacious, private, clean and has all the amenities so you don't need to bring anything extra. The host Caro is super friendly, attentive and answers our questions. We took dogs and children, and everyone was comfortable in the house. We had enough space for everyone. In the late evening there are mosquitoes and sometimes a pharmacy repellent is not enough, but we lit the fires and with that they left us alone. For the dam in the kayak, it's super comfortable and quiet. There are many local shops around the cabin area, maybe a little expensive but nothing exorbitant. You can also go to the town of Atemajac, which is very close and has everything. There are a lot of stray dogs, we went walking to the shops and they do follow you but they are not aggressive, they seem used to people. The location is excellent, super private and next to the Ferreria letters and the town of Tapalpa.

Beautiful place to be able to disconnect from the city. The cabin is quite spacious and nice, there are many things to do in there. The garden is amazing, with a view of the dam and very nice mountains.

Overall, the rest was liked. Pluses: 1. Quiet place 2. Cozy Territory 3. Organized grill and campfire area 4. Lake Rafting Boats 5. Large house, comfortable rooms with large beds and comfortable kitchen From: 1. The room on the second floor has access to the ceiling and is super unsafe , there is no railing, and the exit to the ceiling without difficulty, is very dangerous with the children, especially the room on the second floor only suggests the placement of children due to the presence of a two story bed 2. All three toilets had problems : 1ro didn't fill the tank, the 2nd just worked very badly, the third went up the water on the floor of the shower. Absolutely unacceptable in a house at this price and with so many guests 3. There was no salt or pepper in the kitchen, no new dishwashing sponge, no napkins, we had to look for everything in the village shop. And all of this costs so little not to offer. 4. There is no possibility to walk nearby

Excellent location , very private and far from society , the shops of the village very complete.

Hi! I hope you enjoyed your stay! I am sorry that your arrival has been complicated, we will work on the check-in instructions, but as you well describe it is a secluded and private place that gives a lot of peace and tranquility. I hope to have you again! Great guests!

the photos match the place, super clean, everything worked . We charm we would return. Only glass is missing in the windows of the terrace that cover you with the cold a little but in general it is very well equipped .

A beautiful place to rest and enjoy nature, the whole family had a blast! The house is super spacious and everything was clean and well-maintained. Doña Cecy is always available for any questions or services you may have. As a suggestion the quality of the internet can improve and it would be good to have a heater in the upstairs bedroom. We definitely come back!

We loved the place. It was super nice and well maintained, and the beds were super comfortable. Very spacious spaces. The best thing is the views that you can enjoy from anywhere in the cabin. The cabin is perfectly equipped and clean. Happy children in the green areas. There's no cellphone signal, but we were able to communicate using Wi-Fi.

First of all I want to thank Caro and Ana for being so attentive from before our arrival they were on track and during the stay they did not say their answers were very quick to everything we need. The cabin and the area are fantastic. Clean rooms and comfortable beds, all equipped for a winter stay. Very spacious living room, dining room and living room and with very comfortable sofas almost like one more bed. Kitchen with everything you need to prepare breakfast, lunch and grilled meat. Garden, great children's playground. If you come with kids, they'll have a lot of fun with the swings and slides. And for adults, there's a ping-pong table. The kayak is functional for enjoying the lake, which is very nice. There is a small store 2 minutes away that has a very good selection. Points to note that of course you do not deserve the good weekend that passes with my family and the great place. There's no cellphone signal. The internet is intermittent. The entrance to the lake is a bit swampy, which is perhaps due to the rainy season. After 50 meters, everything will surprise you. In general, cost-benefit, the benefit far exceeds the cost.

100% recommended, super clean, fully equipped, the kitchen has practically everything you need. Very private, with spacious and comfortable rooms, and enough blankets for the cold. Life jackets for kayaking, a working stone oven, a comal for making tortillas, a coffee maker, a blender, an electric oven, a microwave oven, pans, pots, lots of glasses, mugs, and plates, a cheese grater, tongs, spatulas, ladles... the kitchen is fantastic! The rooms are comfortable, and for a family trip, it's perfect. Thank you, Caro, for your attention.

Very good place to spend time with family and get away from the noise of the city. My family and I had a great time. You should be aware that the mosquitoes there are somewhat out of control; wear clothing that covers you completely, but you are sure to enjoy it.

Fantastic! Caro was very attentive with the answers to all my questions and giving me all the necessary directions to make our stay wonderful. The cabin is beautiful and very comfortable.

The house is very spacious and in a nice location. You can hear many animals and can see sheep, cows and horses from the kitchen window. The fireplace and firepit were great and the kitchen had everything you need. I'd recommend a small suv or something with higher wheels as there are a few minutes of rough terrain. Also take some masking tape as there are a few areas where mosquitos can get in (but they didn't seem to bite too much). The house is just a short drive to the town where there are two restaurants. Unfortunately the house next door had some very loud guests while we were there but other than that it was a nice place. Luis cares for the house and is very helpful and friendly. Alejandrina helps you get in and can get any meat you may want during your stay and was nice too. Be sure to print directions as GPS failed us a few times on the way in. If you don't mind the noise next door this is a great house that can comfortably fit many people. There are 4 rooms downstairs, one with its own bathroom, and two full beds, and a bunk bed upstairs with itsown bathroom.

Janey, thank you very much for your feedback, tomorrow we are going to go to the cabin, looking for a meeting with the owners of the back cabin. Unfortunately, this is a guest issue, but we will try to have a little more control over the noise. And I'm so sorry you had a lot of noise, thank you for all the feedback.

Excellent place, the cabin of very good size with all the things in order. Ale and Luis, the people in charge of the house were very attentive. Nothing was needed.

An excellent place to get away from the city, there is no phone signal, however if it has a good wifi signal as well as a couple of radios that make available in case of having to go to the village for food. The house is located on the outskirts of the village, which provides a lot of privacy. It has plenty of space for the kids, and if you bring pets, they'll have a great time too. It has everything you need to have a very pleasant stay, as well as the attention of Luis and Mrs. Ale, who were always on the lookout for us. A detail that we took full advantage of was the wood-burning oven, fully functional for cooking some rich pizzas. Hot water at all times, and the house is very clean in general. 100% recommended.
