    Fire place in house no 16
    Gina C.

    Good customer service this place has a beautiful views totally nice I stayed at house no 16 needs some remodeling and a paint job overall the experience was nice

    The view from my balcony... 3rd floor studio. Admittedly you can also see construction in other directions, but that's Ensenada I think?

    It seems like people disagree about this place? Some -- like me and my BFF -- loved it. And others don't! Some of that difference is obv. about vibe and what is important to you. Maybe the rest is luck or specific choice of room? If you need super reliable wifi, great TV selection, pool, and deluxe spiffiness in general, this is not for you. On the other hand, if you like an old-fashioned look and feel, this sprawling place may please you as it did us. It has a number of cool bungalows, plus a few studio buildings, spread around a tiny well-kept garden-filled gated "campus" right on the main road. We found it charming and interesting, even if a little funky or run down in spots. Great waterside location, just north of center of town. it was too cold to swim in early April, but the beautiful (rocky) beach is right there. No wifi in spite of staff efforts on day 1, but then it worked fine for next 2 days. We did not watch TV or care much about the wifi. Strong great shower... 1980's era bathroom tiles, all good with us! The many room-types confused us, and we had helpful email exchanges to make the right choice: two connected large rooms w a kitchen and balconies, water view, perfect for us. We liked the staff. The security felt good. With special thanks to an outraged previous reviewer, i was prepared when they took a few minutes on checkout to check our rooms for damages before refunding our deposit. The restaurant and wine-bar, not affiliated i don't think, but right there, are excellent. I hope to return!

    We stayed here for 3 days in one of the beach front rooms. The room was a perfect fit for us. It had a small kitchen (fully equipped with the basics like cups/mugs/plates/bowls/utensils/toaster/blender), fireplace wall mounted TV and literally beachfront view. They supply a chord of wood daily, you can purchase more if needed. They will also come and light it up for you if you would like. We came on a cold weekend and the wall mounted electric heater was great! The shower is a little outdated but there is no shortage of HOT water. Our bed was comfortable with extra sheets and blankets in the closet. The staff was very polite and attentive. The grounds have several types of properties rent from single bungalows, 2-3 bedroom homes and condo type rooms. It is 3 miles from downtown Ensenada (cab was $60 pesos about $3.50 US dollars). We had breakfast at La Flor de Calabaza which is a 5 minute walk, also super place. Enjoy.

    The moment we entered Quintas Papagayo I was already planning our return trip. This hotel is so beautiful and by far one of the best places to stay in Ensenada. We booked a room on the beach and were blown away at how huge it was! It even had a full kitchen with appliances and supplies had we needed to cook. The bathroom was also great, shower had excellent water pressure. Our view was insane and waking up to the blue water of the pacific was a dream in itself. We also felt extremely safe since the community is gated and guarded. Our next door neighbors were a little rowdy at midnight and I am not one to complain, however I did call after realizing it may not subside and security had them quiet down within minutes. The tiled floor was also one of my favorites and our deck/balcony was large and private and I was able to do some work on the chairs they provided. The beach access and pathways are well done and made exploring the property extra magical. It's an extremely clean resort. The gentleman who checked us in was extremely accommodating and let us check in early. I cannot recommend this place enough and will be sure that all my friends stay there when asking for Ensenada recommendations. Also- there is a great cafe around the corner La Flor De La Calabeza that is farm to table sustainable, healthy and affordable that is a must for breakfast. We unfortunately did not have time to try the restaurant on-site but plan to when we return.

    Great place, peaceful and quiet. Very close to the ocean. Gated, looking forward to returning soon and staying in there cabanas ocean view.

    Even when all other hotels are full in Ensenada during weekends when there are Mexican wine country Valle de Guadalupe events like the paella festival we went to you can count on Quintas Papagayo to have a place for you! The place is VERY rustic and if that does not bother you then you will appreciate the fact that Papagayo is a clean place to stay with a degree of quaint charm. The only real complaint about this place that I have is that we were once without water for quite a while. However, it is likely that all hotels in Ensenada may have this problem as well as water is relatively scarce in Ensenada. Papagayo is close to the beach which offers pretty nice views as you might imagine. Papagayo is not a quiet place to relax it seems. The weekend we stayed here you could hear music and the chatter of people. The rooms have kitchens with regular sized refrigerators. All in all Quintas Papagayo is what it is - cheap and clean lodgings with no frills. Parking is no issue here really.

    RAT POOP!! I recently stayed in Cabana 72 and the next morning found rat feces all over the floor and the bed sheets! I was disgusted and of course complained to the front lobby but they told me my two options were to transfer to cabana 75 or check out and have only the second night refunded. My sister and her partner came with us and had Cabana 73. We all drove up together decided to all check out and leave. The receptionist wouldn't even provide his name to us. There's so many deseases you can get from infected rat poop not just by contact but some are airborne. I'm concerned about me and my husbands health. Ensenada health department can careless. Expedia is working with me to make things right. This shouldn't happen to anyone! So unhealthy and disgusting!

    As a huge fan of mid-century modern architecture, I loved this place. We stayed for two days over the 4th of July holiday. We stayed in the Chalet Deluxe #39, one of the 28 houses on the property. Clean, beautiful and right next to the water with full kitchens, fireplace and built in BBQ. The GM was amazing and took us around showing us various room options and explaining the renovations they are doing. Our bathroom was upgraded and the entire 600+ sq ft residence had great new and relevant decor. We found our favorite new spot in Baja and can't wait to return. Only suggestions we had were to have room service available and an on-site store or bar. That would have been the small extra step. There is good news as a grocery store is less than a mile and a new brewery is on the West side of the street and we went twice. Such a gem!

This place is very popular, people are always coming and going. My room was actually quite large with a nice balcony facing the ocean. I had the fortune of occupying a newly renovated room. My only complaint is the amount of noise that makes its way into the room from the exterior hallway. As soon as you enter on my left by the doorway was the bedroom which had a wall and windows facing the hallway. I guess, I was fortunate because most of my neighbors were quiet and respectful. The hotel can easily solve this problem by utilizing more sound absorbing materials. The hotel's restaurant has an outstanding breakfast buffet which was the most memorable experience of my stay. It's worth staying here just for the delicious breakfast. Would I stay here again? Most definitely, the hotel's proximity and food made all of the difference. There are also trails along the ocean front which I made use of after breakfast.

That killed the appetite pretty quick. We also ordered wine but we did not ask for the price and they ended up pouring a very expensive bottle. It was good but make sure you ask because the bill was pretty high We also booked this place because paddle boarding was offered. When we went to rent the boards they said they were not renting them out. Major bummer, if I would have known I would have brought my own board Over all nice hotel but I'm not sure if I would go back

I'll list the pros and cons. Pros: Beautiful view of the marina, though they tried to give us a room, the same floor as the lobby, though I booked a sea view room. Thankfully they changed it when I spoke up. Staff speaks fluent English Spacious room (Jr suite) and a lovely balcony I loved having a coffee maker and a fridge Pretty Americanized if that's your thing and full of tourists You feel especially safe with the guard, who asks you to verify your info Restaurant on the premises though you have to pay for it Cons: VERY noisy rooms with paper thin walls You can hear everyone, alongside their kids walking in the hallway (floors are tile) The rooms are outdated and the carpet is dirty Very loud at night (the hold events at the hotel premises but the noise goes down past 11pm) Our TV was broken but thankfully the bedroom one worked. The lighting in the rooms is a bit dark and depressing. A remodel is much needed Nice hotel, but if want something more clean, up to date and quiet, this is not the one. If you desire security as your number one (most hotels tho have a guard) definitely consider this one

    WARNING We bought their time share 3 years ago and are VERY…read moreSORRY we did. BEFORE we purchased it, they showed us a nice newly remodeled room with a small kitchenette area and mini sink. We live in San Diego and liked the proximity. It was our anniversary and my husband wanted to get me a nice gift. He paid nearly 20k for 2 weeks per year in a Presidential suite which supposedly sleeps ten people. They incentivized the purchase with a one X one exchange at a hotel in Valle de Guadalupe and a free weekend stay in a smaller suite. They have NEVER honored the incentives, the availability to the suite we purchased has become difficult,and the rooms we are given are not the same as we were shown before purchasing. We have complained to no avail, they promise to call to discuss but never do. The hotel has become run down even in the three years after we purchased it. The children area is dangerously neglected, the small "beach" area (there is no beach access) has become dumpy and dirty, the furniture is broken and dirty, no cushions on the sofas, the indoor pool is always full of children and teenagers, the water is cloudy, the adjacent hot tub is dirty and the bathroom inside is just NASTY always. There is an almost full size refrigerator in front of the bed in one of the bedrooms (unlike in the room we were shown) and there is usually something broken in the bathrooms when we stay there. They have obviously over sold and continued to remodel other rooms while depleting the inventory of the suite we purchased, this has affected availability. When we call, even beyond the 30 days they said would secure our (preferential due to our type of membership) place, they just tell us there is no room unless we accept whatever room they want to give us. I am Mexican and it is not pleasant to give this report. Mexico has many beautiful places and there are plenty of honest people there too.

The house is huge and you're far enough away from everyone so you have complete privacy. They have a 24 hour guard and secure parking so no one gonna fuck with your car. They do have room service, food comes from the cafe next door and it's delicious! Best part is every morning they have fresh fruit and coffee in the kitchen. They have a collection of wine and beer that you can help yourself to. Just let them know and they will add it to your bill. They have snacks so if you get midnight munchies go ahead and take them, it's free fifty free! The people who work and so helpful and nice, they leave in the early evening and the guard is there all night. It's super safe and soo fucken beautiful! It's worth every penny in my opinion, It's my new go to place when I visit Ensenada. I want to thank Antonio the owner and the staff, it felt like it was our home away from home I didn't want to leave. Thank you Casa Natalie I love you!
