El Encanto

Hey thanks, Ashleigh & Luke for your cute mention of El Encanto!  ​Best 24 hours in Brisbane​​​

El Encanto has been the greatest surprise of our trip down the east coast of Australia. Initially we were a little sceptical, a camp site in a trucking company's yard hardly seemed the ideal place to spend a couple of nights in Brisbane. How wrong could we have been! The site was secure. The facilities were amazing. Absolutely the best we have experienced. The site is small, so if you are lucky enough to be able to secure a booking, grab it! You will be very well looked after by the "El Encanto Mob". Thank you both.

We have arrived! Your place is amazing! We feel very good and alone, we have a private camping. Thank you so much!

Wir haben Ihren Campingplatz in unserem Reiseführer gefunden. Es war eine sehr gute Wahl für den Aufenthalt! Danke schön.

I had such an amazing stay at El encanto! Such a unique set up with so much entertainment you never have to leave! The owners were so lovely and helpful. I could not recommend this place more! Thank you.

Eher einfach gehaltener und kleiner Campingplatz. Bietet aber definitiv alles, was man braucht! Sehr nette Gastgeber und Service. Nur zu empfehlen.

Stayed in El Encanto last night and couldn’t be more impressed, value for money doesn’t even begin to describe the place. At first sight it wasn’t at all what we expected but the facilities are brilliant, it’s spotless and it’s location is great. Mimi was also such a lovely lady, our only issue was that we were only staying for one night and wish we could have stopped for a little longer, would definitely stay again!

Thanks for everything! We really enjoyed ourselves. Thanks for the great advice. We went north to the place you recommended and it was absolutely fabulous!

Thank you for a wonderful 5-night stay and making us feel very welcomed. You might possibly see some of us again, and if not, then some of our friends as we will recommend your great place. 

Hola, we camped with you for the last two nights. Thank you again, it was really nice at the campsite! It is so lovingly furnished and well equipped! We really liked it and really enjoyed our stay in Brissie. Thank you for everything and all the best!

Absolute hidden Gem, we loved it. They have converted an old restaurant into a beautiful space for people to have a chill. The owners are great people, they helped us with our van electricity, forever gratefull. The place is clean, tidy, offers heaps of services and close to everything. Would recommand to anyone looking for a good vibe. Muchas gracias 🌵🎊💃 nos vemos !!

Thanks for welcoming us yesterday night! Your facilities are very nice and clean! We had a great time and your place is gorgeous. Have a wonderful day. 

Hola, we already left your space. It was a great experience to stay at your spot. Thank you for a great time. PS: On the guitar near the shower door, the high e string is missing. :) :)

El Canto ist eine kleine Perle ! Der Campingplatz stellt 4 Stellplätze zur Verfügung, ist bestens ausgestattet hinsichtlich Sanitär- und Kücheneinrichtung und ein super Ausgangspunkt für die Besichtigung von Brisbane. Die Busstation ist gleich in der Nähe. Die Organisation war perfekt und es gab noch viele hilfreiche Tips von Mimi. Vielen Dank !!!

El Canto is a little pearl! The campsite offers 4 pitches, is well equipped in terms of sanitary and kitchen facilities and is a great starting point for exploring Brisbane. The bus station is close by. The organization was perfect and there were lots of helpful tips from Mimi. Thank you !!!

Stayed at this place for one night whist passing threw Brisbane. The camping is in a car park at an industrial unit and has a water fill station and electrical hook up, kind of basic but only a 20 min uber into the city so for us this was perfect. We where shocked by the beautiful common area with table tennis lots of space and some musical instruments to play. A fully stocked kitchen with everything you need. Showers and toilets very clean and modern. The hosts Mimi was amazing and there was even a fridge with free beer. Would highly recommend this place if your looking for some where to park the van and visit the city.

At first glance, it appears to be a space in an industrial area. Upon closer inspection, it's a truly enchanting place (verdaderamente un encanto!), full of bold colors and small decorative details that you often only notice at second glance. The site isn't cheap (but it's still expensive for Brisbane) and is equipped with absolutely everything you need: clean toilets and showers, Wi-Fi, a fully equipped catering kitchen, and a huge common room that presumably hosts music events? Everything is online and superbly organized. We only had trouble getting in and out with the door code twice, but the vehicle gate code always worked from the outside. Also very important was the good public transport connection to the city center, which worked really well with the bus (approx. 40 minutes, depending on the connection). Beautiful place with all the amenities!

Thank you very much for the stay we really enjoyed you place. It was great, had everything we needed and more! You have done a great job! Thank you for suggestions as well.

The facility is very clean and charming, with washing and drying machines available on-site. The showers are fantastic! They even provide a hair dryer for guests in case it’s needed!

Honestly, it really has everything, and free washing machine and dryer! Very quiet at night, lounge areas so comfy with ping pong and musical instruments!!

Excellent endroit pour un motorhome Tous les services d un camping en mieux ( douches, sanitaires, lave linge, pièce de vie pour se reposer ou manger. Avons adoré la décoration. Tous les espaces à disposition sont grds et très propres. Situé en zone industrielle et résidentielle Proche du bus pour le centre ville( à 45 mn) Un calme exceptionnel Nous vous le recommandons.
Excellent place for a motorhome. All the services of a campsite but better showers, toilets, washing machine, living room for resting or eating. We loved the decoration. All the spaces available are large and very clean. Located in an industrial zone and residential Close to the bus to the city center (45 minutes) Exceptional calm. We recommend it.

Inside a locked and fenced in area. Clean. So cute! Great facilities inside including a kitchen, private bathrooms, nice showers. The host was super responsive! What a unique find in the middle of a city!

Best van camp spot ever! The place is an authentic jewel, very different but tasteful . The toilets, showers and kitchen are super clean and well equipped, better than many homes or even restaurants. I did love the place, would recommend 100%

Great little campsite.
It's true that it's in the heart of an industrial area, and for good reason: it's located in a company! I think there are only four spaces: two for small campervans and two for large ones. The room with the kitchen, shower, and toilet is very welcoming. The kitchen is super well-equipped, and there's direct access to Brisbane by bus, about 40 minutes away. Very small but very welcoming.

Loved this little quiet hidden campsite in a place you would never expect to find. 😁 Check in was super easy. All is gated and they send you all the codes to get in and wifi password ahead of time. The man who greeted us was super nice and used his leaf blower to tidy up the 2 Bay area's for us. TY!

Nothing like I have ever been too and I would totally stay here again. Was 20 mins by Uber to downtown, has power, water, bathrooms, showers, pin long, tv, full kitchen. Super clean and tidy. Very eclectic and different vibe. Love it!!

Would def stay here again. For those who need a dump station, do it before you come as hey don't have one. (We didn't need it so all good with us) 😄
