Question

Hey there,

I am taking a quick trip into Mexico for the weekend, and I dont want to have to go much more south then Ensenada. I want to stay somewhere fun and nice!!! WHere should I stay??

Answer 1

The Rosarito Beach Hotel is the most famous place in the area. It's right on the water and is charming. It's perfect for a quick weekend trip. There's nightlife there in Rosarito, and lots of kitschy shopping to be done, all within walking distance of the hotel. If you'd rather be outside the main town, there's also the Hotel Calafia. (See links below)

From Rosarito, you can drive south to Puerto Nuevo for a great lobster dinner one night; then spend a day down in Ensenada - be sure to go have a drink in the historic Hussongs cantina and then head out to dance at one of the other clubs nearby.

If you want to go further, keep driving past Ensenada and aim for lunch at La Bufadora - a pretty drive.

If the club-scene isn't for you, then consider heading inland to take a tour of the wineries. (See link below). Some offer accomodations and nice weekend packages.

I used to live in San Diego and Mexico and have spent lots of time in the area. Have fun. Enjoy the great seafood!
