    Accessible, affordable, and available. It's $12 per car for the night, $5 for firewood. Running cold showers, working bathrooms, and plenty of spots. Apparently it used to be packed on weekends before the recession and it's just now starting to get busier again. We felt like it was safe enough, no sketchy characters noticed. Being only a two and half hour drive from Orange County, it's a very doable weekend trip. There are some restaurant/bars with great ocean views and strong margaritas. A good refuge from the midday sun. Surf is decent there. It's a beach break that can handle decently large swells, but it's a paddle and a half to get out. Comparable to Ponto, Trails, or Goldenwest.

    Favorite spot to came at in Mexico! My family and I have gone here 4 times during the summer! Cheap entrance fee but also depends on the season you are coming but still reasonable price! Our door showers only (beach style). Bathrooms can sometimes get dirty from over usage and clogged but owners maintain as much as they can. All slots are first come first serve . The beach is a 5 minute walk down and local restaurants are 10 minutes walk from the campground! Everyone is friendly. Coming back as an annual camping trip!

    Came here a couple months ago for a camping trip. Stayed at Alisitos for a night in the back of my friends truck bed. During the day we swam and played around on the beach. Water was nice- dark and cold though. This place is not sketchy and is super safe. You can bring beers and whatever else down to the beach with you. There are outside showers and bathrooms too. Bring your own TP! This is not a luxury spot. There is the Alisitos hotel right there too. We ate there for lunch. It was good. Nothing special. There is also a lot of young people to meet, and also a guy that will take you up in his little makeshift plane. Cool spot for camping!! $11/day

    Clean campground in a fairly central location. Only downfall is the open showers, no privacy.

The most accurate directions are on Google maps if you type in "Glamping Ruta de Arte y Vino". Some of the roads are now blocked, so it's best to come from Camino a Las Lomas/Emiliano Zapata rather than Hwy 3. Then, you'll pass by La Cocina de Dona Esthela and then Hacienda la Lomita. Once you arrive, you'll find a peaceful area with 5 cute little Airstreams and trailers. You'll also meet Cesar, who is very friendly and obviously loves what he does. The area is really communal. There's a central outdoor covered living space with couches and a fridge and a bonfire area. Behind that are the trailers, each with their own outdoor seating area. There's also a small outhouse and shower. At night, it's incredibly quiet as you're pretty much out in the middle of nowhere. You can see a full sky full of stars, and there's even a telescope you can use. The inside of the trailers are clean and modest. After Cesar showed us some of the other trailers that he was fixing up, you begin to have a huge appreciation for all of the work he put into refurbishing these old trailers (some are from the 1950-60s!). We stayed in the Avion, which had a full bed and two twin beds. It was one of the larger trailers. The outhouse was surprisingly clean for what it was, but just keep in mind that this is pretty much a campground, so an outhouse is still an outhouse. The shower was comfortable and there was hot water. Everyone staying here is friendly and young, so it can get rowdy on the weekends (until about midnight). We didn't have any problems, but if you have trouble sleeping, you'll want to stay in a trailer further from the communal area. I highly recommend this place if you want a retreat and enjoy unique experiences, but don't mind not having some standard hotel luxuries.

    I love discovering new and fun things to do and experience! I came across this website and saw how…read moredifferent it was from any other place in Valle de Guadelupe, I knew I had to check it out. Now typically, we stay at Casa Encinares when we are down here, but they were completely booked during Valentines weekend so when we contacted this place, they surprisingly still had two airstreams available. The booking process was very easy as they were very informative and spoke descent enough english. We were lucky as the owners here knew our friends down in the area, so it made the reservation process much...MUCH easier. But if you want to book, I would still recommend going through their Airbnb listing or through their website! Let me just say, the place is hard to find! Do not use the coordinates on google maps as it will direct you to a dead end. Instead, use the address for La Cocina de Dona Esthella (a restaurant nearby), then from there, use the directions to go to the camp ground on google maps. We arrive pretty late at night but I contacted them to let them know. Once we got there, I was like a giggy little girl seeing some magical unicorn for the first time! It was dark, but all I see are airstreams lit up with lights. We walked up to the "common area" where the owner, Cesar, happened to be chatting with other guests. Cesar speaks good english so no problems with communications. He greeted us with glasses of wine then showed us our airstream and asked if we wanted to check out the other ones. I noticed that there was a better one available than what he had booked us in and asked if he would allow us to switch and he did not hesitate one bit to accommodate us! All the airstreams are renovated absolutely beautifully! There are no running waters inside the airstream (no toilet or kitchen usage), but there is an outhouse (yes, you have to poop and pee into a hole), and a man-made wooden shower with running water (yes, the water is heated). There is also a jacuzzi but at the time we went, it too cold to be used. The covered common area has plenty of seating, a hammock, and table with wine, coffee, water for the guests. There are also two beach cruiser bikes for the guests to use. Each airstream has its own grill situated outside the trailer, you just have to bring your own supplies for it. There are also lots of fire pits throughout the camp grounds so bring your own firewood! Our Valentines weekend here was so perfect! Our rooms (trailer) was decorated with so much love! We thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful and peacefulness of our entire stay there! We met awesome friends at the camp grounds and even went to breakfast with them down the road at La Cocina de Dona Esthella. Enjoyed the stay so much that we already booked for our next trip here with our friends!

    Complete rip off!! My family and I decided to go because we could do zip line and paddle boats…read more Upon arrival at 3:30pm we were told we had time to do both until 6pm with a $55 day pass. We were finished zip lining at 5:21, we went to paddle boats and was told it closed at 5pm. Huh?! We have until 6pm! As stop by the entry office to ask for a partial refund since we were lied to about the activity being available to ride. No help whatsoever! Yeah we understand but we can't refund. I ask for the manager, who is no more than 18, and she said we had 30 minutes to cancel. Girl bye! They are so wrong not to tell me the ride closed early so I could have done that first. I would NEVER go back! Ruined our spring break.

    A fun clean place to camp! I definitely recommend coming here for the weekend. It does get packed!…read moreSo many activities and places to go! Pools and restrooms are always clean. I was so amazed not even in Cali lol. This place keeps up with their maintenance. Workers definitely take care of the camp grounds with love. There are different pools to swim in. Zip lining was so much fun and the workers there make sure you are safe. There is also a hiking trail to see the flag at the top. Also, there is music playing which I love. It is such a vibe. There was live music on Saturday 6/21. Not sure if they due this every Saturday but went. Thank you so much everyone for making this a fun experience!! Un lugar para estar con la familia. Hay muchas actividades para hacer. Las albercas y los baños siempre están limpios. Hay diferente tipos de albercas para nadar. Los fines de semana si hay mucha gente. Los trabajadores son amables. Banda en Sábado. No se si hacen esto cada sábado pero tocaron este día 6/21. Gracias por todo!! Un 10/10!!

Quite hairy at times getting there. And on a narrow two way road overlooking the ocean. Beautiful views though. After arriving at La Bufadora's parking lot, a huge shoutout to the driver for getting us there safely. And before stepping off the bus our guide Roxanne gave us a prep talk on what to expect. Of course its main destination is their famous blowhole. While the taco spot Lidia's Grill is also extremely popular. Riders were even given the option of bringing their tacos back to the bus to enjoy while riding back to Ensenada. But before reaching that very popular blowhole, we were given advice about first weaving our way through the huge marketplace and its very aggressive hawkers. "If not interested just ignore them." Think LA's Olvera Street on steroids if you've ever been there. And much larger, at least a quarter of a mile in length with everything imaginable being offered. But Roxanne boldly guided us through and finally we reached the blowhole and the beautiful scenery overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Then you're left to take in the views on your own. Just remember to head back to the bus to reboard by 2:10 for our return bus ride back to the port. And conditions were right for amazing bursts of waves from the blowhole. While some spent almost the entire time at Lidia's putting in and awaiting their taco orders. It's that popular.

We went at the beginning of October. The weather in the daytime was cool, it rained for one day at night, and it got chilly. At night you can hear frogs and crickets. Dogs are welcome, but they must be leased at all times. There are hot showers available in the park bathrooms. Make sure to bring quarters to feed the machine. There are unruly campers at night. They blast the music up during quiet hours and drink. The best time to camp here is during the weekdays, and it's tranquil. The nature trail is easy to hike. It was a nice getaway!
