El Encanto, A Belmond Hotel, Santa Barbara

El Encanto, A Belmond Hotel

Nestled between lush green mountains and the dazzling blue sea, Belmond El Encanto sits high on a Santa Barbara hillside. Just minutes away you’ll find exquisite restaurants, fine galleries, boutique wineries and the beautiful California coast. Rates are inclusive of Resort Fee. Bookings of 8 rooms or more will be considered a group booking and are not applicable to FIT rates. Unless notified prior to, or at check-in, a one night penalty will apply to departures that occur earlier than the date specified on the original reservation. Popular with the Plein Air School of artists, Belmond El Encanto’s former 1920s glory has been lovingly restored to become one of the most celebrated resorts on the West Coast. The restoration process helped to highlight the original Spanish-colonial and Californian craftsman styles, with modern additions including a zero-edge outdoor pool and sumptuous boutique spa. Here, every sense is heightened.

“My review while for the Lounge/Bar will also include the parking valet and front desk. We called the day before to reserve the Lounge, as we wanted a drink and snack before our movie at the Riviera. The person that helped our party of 4 on the phone, said "we don't take reservations in the bar or lounge", only for the restaurant. We then showed up hungry the next day allowing 90 minutes for a drink and light dinner in the lounge. As our car door opened the Valet said "Are you checking in? We replied "we are here for a drink and snack in the Lounge. He asked us if we had a reservation. We replied, we called the day before and they said we don't need a reservation for the lounge. The Valet then says I can't let you in the Hotel without a reservation. We then asked to speak to the Front Desk, who reiterated what the Valet said. We then asked to speak to the Manager. The desk person then left for what seemed like 10 minutes and came back saying the Food and Beverage Manager said, they were short staffed and he could not serve us. She gave us the option to speak to him if needed. Did I want to speak to a Food/Beverage Manager that is in charge of hiring that doesn't have a handle on it, no. I think that would better be done by their supervisor. This was far from a proper luxury hotel experience. Good luck we will never be back nor will I reccommend the El Encanto to anyone.”

“TOO UNPREDICTABLE ---I have recently enjoyed excellent food and service in the restaurant (weekday lunches). However, I have also encountered a couple of El Encanto hotel employees who demonstrated such awful customer service skills that it was almost comical. It only takes a couple of bad employees to ruin a guest's experience and tarnish the reputation of a hotel.”
