El Encanto, A Belmond Hotel, is a hospitality property in the Santa Barbara region of California, perched in the hills above the Pacific Ocean and the Santa Ynez mountains. The hotel comprises 26 suites and 66 rooms spread across seven acres of gardens, a legacy dating to 1918 when it served as a secluded retreat for artists and Hollywood figures. Its on-site offerings include dining venues—the Dining Room and Terrace with seasonal dishes on an ocean-facing terrace—and the Lounge and Riviera Bar for lighter fare, afternoon tea, and cocktails, along with a spa, a heated outdoor saline pool, and wellness experiences. As part of the Belmond portfolio, El Encanto positions itself as a destination that blends cuisine, modern art, literature, and wellness to reflect creative California. The property serves guests seeking a restorative escape, combining scenery with cultural and culinary offerings, and provides transport options such as a complimentary shuttle to downtown Santa Barbara and electric Faraday bikes. In May 2026, El Encanto expanded its guest experience with the Celia luxury dining carriage.
