Latest Ensenada hotel reviews
6 Reviews In this photo, the height of the geyser is not apparent, nor is the power. You'll just have to see it for yourself. On the road to La Bufadora you will see the dry, back hills of this Mexican peninsula and anywhere near a city or habitation there are venders along the road selling their wares and...

Royal Caribbean Cruise ship: Royal Caribbean Cruise ship
LizC Says: Great view on deck or from you statesroom, lots of entertainments and fun activities on board plus great food, mid-night buffet, as many meals as you can eat a day, even though it's kind of free but you'll pay big by gaining several pounds by the end of your...

Yubert Says: I stayed at a resort that was going to be developed into time-share units by some friends of mine. This is a view of the ocean from the back side of the property.They had plans for two Palapa bars, a pools, tennis courts but the deal fell thru. But I got to stay there for...
1 Review piersThe vendors themselves can get quite competitive trying to get you to eat at *their* place (as pictured). Breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Worth a visit to see the fish market alone. As of 11/98 they've begun to charge a parking fee adjacent to the market which I find annoying. Walk here if you can...
LAS ROSAS HOTEL RESTAURANT: Hotel Restaurant A Good Place to Start!
lmkluque Says: Las Rosas is a place I like to stop at while in Ensenada. It is just north of the city and located on the Pacific ocean, it offers a wonderful view. Usually I stop here for an evening meal to watch the sun set. The small dining room looks out to the poolside patio and past...

LizC Says: Cafe and restaurants aboard Royal Carribbean Cruise ship From Smoked samon breakfasts, tasty lunches, in-between-meal meals, gourmet dinners to mid-night buffets, most food items are not only fresh, good quality and delicious, they pay attention to details and...
3 Reviews Not really Nightlife, only a dance class during the day, the music and cheerful crowd, kept us dancing (or at least trying hard to move as cool as the rest boys-only crowd) and laughing, it's the most packed, fun and hilarious dance class ever.
SHAWNA20 Says: There are so many different shops with so much to sell! Definently do some shopping around before making your final decision. The Wind Chimes are a must buy. I was contimplating it the whole time I was there, and never ended up buying one. The minute the ship left the dock,...
SHAWNA20 Says: Culture wise, comming from Canada myself, I was shocked, and heart broken! BE PREPARED! Ensensada is NOT a tourist trap town!
3 Reviews Food stalls like this can be seen along the road in Mexico, selling such things as cured olives--Acetunas, Bee Honey--Meil, de Abeja, Tamales de Elote or drinks. Be careful when buying any food that should be hot, such as those delicious tamales. Sometimes they are not kept hot enough and you can...
I got ripped-off when I bought...
freemrkt Says: I got ripped-off when I bought what was supposed to be a huge firecracker (supposedly was a 1/4 stick of dynamite), and it did nothing when I lit it---it was a fake. I suspect the locals rip-off the tourists in other ways too.ALSO, beware of the women in some of the bars...
lmkluque Says: The more popular La Bufadora gets, the more stalls are set up. This may seem a bit of a tourist trap, but the mood is usually festive and seems almost like the carnival has come to town.
lmkluque Says: Buy all the film you'll need, before entering Mexico. It is easy to purchase, but the price is much higher, and sometimes the expire date has passed.
THE FURTHER SOUTH THE FEWER TOURISTS
lmkluque Says: This view from the cliffs at La Bufadora, looking south, shows that there are more little towns further down, to be explored. Who knows what wonders can be found in the little villages beyond, especially on the west side of Baja California Norte?
lmkluque Says: When I first came to La Bufadora there was nothing out here except dirt and on the other side of the road, a little restaurant that served the best, lobster I've ever eaten. Since then, everytime I bring someone here I can see the massive changes to the area. Soon it will be...

CubsIn4 Says: Ensenada's many residential areas are very rarely frequented by out-of-towners since the tourist industry here focusses on the resorts. Strolling through any of the city's neighborhoods, eating at a local restaurant and shopping in a local market or strip mall is the best...
4 Reviews Coming off the toll road there is first a sharp right turn, just beyond the turn there are ferocious steel speed bumps. When you see this building you'll know you've arrived. Ensenada is a fishing town and there is an open air fish market. If you arrive early enough, you can buy the fish as they...

Gypsy_King Says: In Mexico, you can walk into a drug store and buy prescription drugs without a prescription. Such as Pennicyllin, Antibiotics, and a bunch of other stuff I had no clue about.

even the best hotel is probably considered just fair, at best, by world standards. Expect to find an occasional cockroach in the tub, or to smell some musty,...

ENSENADA CUOTA OR LIBRE? Welcome to my Ensenada page, My suggestion is to take the toll road (Ensenada Cuota) from Tijuana to Ensenada. There are three tolls, about $2.50 each and this road is kept...
