Shōnan-Enoshima Station was opened on July 1, 1971 as part of the second phase of construction of the line, which extended its terminus from Nishi-Kamakura Station.^[1]

Renovation works on the station took place between July and December 2018.^[2] Along with a refreshed exterior, new escalators and elevators were built to connect the ground floor with the fifth floor, where the monorail departs from. An open terrace at the top of the building provides an overlook of the area, with Sagami Bay and Mt. Fuji visible on a clear day.^[2]
