Top Encanto Hotel Reviews

Best Western Seven Seas

10/10 Excellent

"We like the size of the room and the parking near our door. The plants outside were very pretty and well cared for. Everything was wonderful and clean but would have enjoyed the TV more if there was a paper to show how to use the for older people to understand the TV better. But everything was the best."

The Dana on Mission Bay

8/10 Good

"The property is beautiful and it does feel resort like, but it’s a lot different in person. The Marina view rooms are like motels where cars are parked outside your front door and there is a big walk way in front of the only window facing the marina. It not very private and you can only enjoy the view from your room if you don’t mind people walking right against your window and peering in. There was also a cockroach in my room but it was an outdoor cockroach, not the kind that hitches a ride home with you. With all that being said I still really liked the hotel and would probably stay on the tropical side next time."
