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.

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.

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.
