Quintas Papagayo
Carretera Tijuana-Ensenada Km. 108, Zona Playitas

Quintas Papagayo is a value property with a rocky beachfront location in Ensenada. The 48-room property is popular with a diverse set of budget travelers as many of the units have fireplaces, outdoor spaces, kitchenettes, or microwaves and mini-fridges. However, they lack air-conditioning and the bathrooms are quite dated. In addition to a majority of self-service units, there’s also an outdoor pool, hot tub, and free perks like Wi-Fi and parking. Breakfast isn’t offered by the hotel, but can be had at the separately-owned restaurant attached to the hotel. As an alternative, travelers could consider Americas Best Value Inn – Posada El Rey Sol which has a central location and offers free breakfast. 

Hotel Coral & Marina
km 103 Carretera Tijuana - Ensenada, No 3421 Zona Playitas

A waterfront resort with a 353-slip marina, two tennis courts, a full-service spa, indoor and outdoor pools, and eight event rooms, the massive upper-middle-range Hotel Coral & Marina suits both vacationers and business travelers. Pacific Ocean views are a welcome addition to the rooms and many public spaces. Staggered balconies look onto the marina from any of the 147 large rooms, which include free Wi-Fi and coffeemakers, though only some suites come with minibars or refrigerators. Four restaurants and bars offer solid food choices and buffet breakfasts are included in room rates. The hotel is a 10-minute drive from downtown Ensenada, so travelers wanting to stay in the heart of the city may prefer the more central San Nicolas Hotel and Casino. 

Corona Hotel & Spa
Blvd Costero 1442

Corona Hotel & Spa is a three-pearl property in central Ensenada overlooking the marina, about a five-minute walk from First Street restaurants and bars. Its 91 guest rooms look a bit dated, but they're in good condition. All have balconies, free Wi-Fi, and flat-screen TVs, but they lack kettles and mini-fridges. Suites add minibars and sofa beds. The hotel has an extensive range of facilities, including an a la carte Mexican restaurant and a freeform heated outdoor pool, plus a fitness center, spa, hot tub, and steam room. Travelers who want a a large pool and on-site casino might consider the nearby San Nicolas Hotel and Casino, although some rooms there need renovation. 

Las Rosas Hotel & Spa
Carretera Tijuana-Ensenada

Though this mid-range hotel is right by a busy highway -- and traffic noise can be audible in rooms -- it's also scenically set by the ocean, with gorgeous views from guest rooms and public spaces. There's an attractive outdoor pool with a large sundeck overlooking the ocean, as well as direct access to a rocky beach. The restaurant and bar also offer ocean views, plus the property has a spa, small fitness center, and tennis courts. The 47 guest rooms, though a bit dated and worn, all have private balconies with ocean views, though guests report poor Wi-Fi as well as cleanliness and maintenance issues. Some rooms have fireplaces or whirlpools. For renovated rooms, check out the Hotel Coral & Marina, which also offers several on-site dining options and two pools.

Estero Beach Hotel & Resort
Estero Beach

The three-pearl Estero Beach Hotel & Resort is located slightly out of town, a 30-minute drive off a main road from Ensenada. The hotel includes a private beach in front of the hotel, and offers kayaks, Jet Ski rentals, and beach massages. Rooms and suites are classic, with a few dated elements; all rooms include a private terrace, with either garden or sea views. Suites include a hot tub and fully-equipped kitchen. The swimming pool is sea-facing, surrounded by palm trees, sun lounges, parasols, two hot tubs, and a poolside bar. Las Terrazas Restaurant and Bar serves Mexican and international cuisine, along with a sushi bar and Sunday brunch -- though meals aren't included in room rates. For cheaper rates and a closer location to downtown Enseneda, San Nicolas Hotel and Casino has cheaper rates, though it isn't on the beach.

San Nicolas Hotel and Casino
First Street and Guadalupe

Apart from its convenient location in downtown Ensenada, the main draw at this three-pearl hotel is its large and attractive outdoor pool, complete with three hot tubs and plenty of seating -- including chic wooden sundecks. The on-site casino is another highlight, while a poolside restaurant and bar as well as meeting and event space round out the features here. The property itself could use a refurbish, however, as interiors are dated and feature lackluster decor: Guest rooms have cheap floral bedspreads and industrial maroon carpet. They're clean and have flat-screen TVs, coffeemakers, and free Wi-Fi. Travelers might also want to check out the nearby Americas Best Value Inn - Posada El Rey Sol, where some of the guest rooms have been more recently updated. 

Posada El Rey Sol
Avenida Blancarte 130, Zona Centro

The highlight of this budget motel-style property is its central location in downtown Ensenada that's close to shops, dining options, and First Street. The hotel is due for a refresh and spaces are dated, but all of its 52 guest rooms have balconies, flat-screen TVs, coffeemakers, and free Wi-Fi. Guests should note that some of the rooms have been more recently refurbished and are fresher, while others remain dated. Other perks include an outdoor pool, hot tub, and a sundeck. The property offers a handful of thoughtful freebies like free breakfast at the neighboring restaurant, coffee and tea in the lobby, and welcome drinks. Travelers might want to compare rates with San Nicolas Hotel and Casino, which has a bigger and more attractive pool as well as a casino -- though it's also a bit dated.
