Hacienda Encantada Resort & Residences

The resort and its setting

Hacienda Encantada is a sizeable oceanfront property on Cabo San Lucas's Tourist Corridor, the stretch of coastline linking Cabo San Lucas to San José del Cabo. Google reviewers rate it 4.5 out of 5 from over 3,500 reviews, and the resort's own summary describes it as sleek and oceanfront, with a spa, five restaurants and an outdoor pool with a swim-up bar. It reads as a full-service holiday resort rather than a simple hotel stay — the kind of place designed for owners to return to year after year, or to pass on to someone else when their travel plans change.

Cabo San Lucas and the Tourist Corridor

Cabo San Lucas is one of the best-known resort towns in Baja California Sur, famous for its marina, sport-fishing fleet, and the Arch of Cabo San Lucas rock formation at Land's End, where the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez. The Tourist Corridor itself is lined with golf courses, beach clubs and restaurants, and sits roughly midway between the marina and the quieter colonial-style streets of San José del Cabo. Expect warm, dry weather most of the year, with a hotter, more humid stretch in summer and early autumn — useful to know when choosing which week to book, rent out, or hold on to.

Selling or renting a week here

If you're ready to sell, BidMyTimeshare.com is a private resale marketplace: you list your week, set your own asking price, and interested buyers contact you directly through the platform. There's no commission on the sale — sellers simply pay a one-time listing fee to get their week in front of buyers.

Because exchange network affiliation for Hacienda Encantada hasn't been verified, we don't reference any exchange network membership on this listing — if that matters to you as a buyer, ask the seller or the resort directly before agreeing a price.

Hacienda Encantada appears to operate independently rather than through a branded timeshare chain, so resale transfers typically go through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management rather than a third-party exchange company. Before agreeing a price, a prospective buyer should always ask the current owner (or the resort) for the exact transfer fee, whether the resort holds a right of first refusal on resales, and how long the transfer process usually takes — these details vary and aren't published figures we can confirm here. A resale buyer should also clarify exactly what transfers with the week: the usage rights and the obligation to pay future annual maintenance fees, but not necessarily any loyalty points, credits or reservations the previous owner may have accumulated.

Owners on our marketplace have reported annual maintenance fees of around USD 837 for their week at Hacienda Encantada — a useful benchmark, though you should always confirm the current fee with the seller or resort before completing a purchase, since fees are reviewed periodically.

Practical notes for renters and buyers

Renters researching Hacienda Encantada are typically weighing up the oceanfront location, the on-site dining options (five restaurants is a notable number for a single resort), and the swim-up bar at the pool as the main draw, alongside the spa for a quieter stay. If you're renting rather than buying, ask the owner directly about unit size, view, and exact week dates, since these details sit with the individual listing rather than the resort's general marketing.
