When I first learned of El Encanto and looked through a number of pictures, I never would have guessed that it was located in southern California. The Spanish architectural style is very different from what I am used to seeing in the United States, and it is extremely beautiful. It’s one of those places that I would expect to see on a brochure and have to get my passport ready in order to go visit. 
After having presented on Urban Gardening, I have a special appreciation for this place. There is so much greenery in and around this resort that one can’t help but feel connected to nature. 
There are a number of gazebos, many of which are also covered in greenery, and an infinity pool that leads to magnificent view. 
Additionally, there are a few rather large terraces that line the exterior of the building itself, which are saturated with seating and tables. Everything about El Encanto encourages the guests to explore, and works from the center (the lodging) outward in all directions.
This resort is extremely beautiful, I love resorts that can tie indoors and outdoors together so well, this is a place I would love to visit and the Spanish architecture is just rare around Oklahoma so it is interesting to see such different buildings.
