About this property

Welcome to Hotel Paraíso Encantado

Located in Barra de Sontecomapan, Hotel Paraíso Encantado offers a comfortable stay within easy reach of natural attractions like Reserva de la Biosfera de Los Tuxtlas and Sontecomapan Lagoon. Guests can enjoy visiting nearby Laguna Catemaco, a large freshwater lake known for boating, fishing, and observing macaque monkeys on its island.

This 4.2-rated hotel with 68 reviews provides kid-friendly services, making it a practical choice for families traveling with children. While the property scores moderately in terms of sightseeing and recreation options based on guest feedback, it serves as a convenient base for exploring the surrounding natural environment.

Travelers appreciate the setting for its proximity to several well-regarded natural reserves and lagoons, although access from the nearest airport, Minatitlan International Airport, involves a longer car journey of over three hours.
