Stay with ocean view was great as always! But unfortunately my flat iron to straighten my hair was stolen!! Which is weird because we had more valuable electronics in the room, but this mysteriously went missing second day of five day stay
I called the front desk and they said they would ask the housekeeper and asked me to make sure to look for the iron around the room (which I made sure to do before I called). I received a call back saying no one of course admitted to taking it, to which I responded, It must have just disappeared then. The attendant then responded, I couldn’t tell you what the reason could have been.
Very unfortunate that the hotel would take something like this so lightly. We have stayed at this hotel several times before as we have family we visit in Ensenada every other year and we had never had this issue.
The hotel is usually a safe, clean and beautiful location.

We’ve been visiting Estero Beach Hotel in Ensenada, Baja California, since around 2019, and back then, it was a family-friendly oasis. The hotel had this calm, cool, and tranquil vibe—a safe, serene environment perfect for a family getaway. We immediately fell in love and returned multiple times, but sadly, our last two visits have been quite disappointing.
The atmosphere has shifted dramatically. The once family-oriented hotel now feels more like a party zone, with rowdy guests taking over. Groups hang out by the jacuzzi, drinking, yelling, and cursing loudly, with no regard for families or children nearby. It’s not just the noise, but it’s honestly gross; hours go by without anyone leaving for a restroom break, making you wonder if the jacuzzi is actually clean. It’s disappointing and disturbing, and unfortunately, the hotel staff doesn’t intervene. They seem indifferent to the chaos.
The rooms, once charming with their “old-world” decor, now just feel outdated and in need of an upgrade. The furniture, lighting, bathrooms, and decor all show their age. During our last stay, our toilet made a strange, whistling noise after each flush, and while the bed was clean, the room didn’t feel particularly fresh overall. The balcony had cracks in the concrete, clearly needing repairs.
We have a lot of fond memories of Estero Beach, but given the recent experiences, it feels like it’s no longer the peaceful retreat we once loved.

Loved our stay here! The AC broke in our room and when I reported it they changed our room immediately. The service was very responsive and our stay was pleasant and peaceful. The pool is great, along with the private beach. We will come back!

Needs Upgrades in rooms and grounds... there is so much potential in this property... it is a shame to not utilitze it . The rooms all need modern upgrading or referblsh back to the original which could be quaint as well but seems they have done neither... the bathroom is in need of complete overhaul starting with plumbing and water system being self contained and cleaned enough to drink to the showers and toilets to being a new hilton or 4 seasons bathroom style.

***!!!*** WARNING ***!!*** This property bathrooms disperse salt water and shut off intermittently ***!!!*** WARNING ***!!***
Stayed here recently with the family and young children. The property is 30 minutes from Ensenada and nestled in an older compound with a LONG entry way. Which is great for security , but a pain to get in an out unless you plan on spending entire time being bored there.
The property itself is older , but maintained. The rooms are decent but could use an upgrade.
On to the biggest issues , since had we know we'd have NOT BOOKED.
The entire resort uses SALT WATER. The seawater in the shabby beach is actually sweeter. At least there your guaranteed continuous water flow.
It was a MAJOR INCONVIENCE having to shower 3 children with shampoo in their eyes , with the water shutting off randomly. What normally would take 5 min now puts you as hostage at the showers will. One evening literally took over an hour to shower (COLD salt water) the children.
Even after "Rinsing" off the saltiness and soap residue really put a dampen on the entire stay. Not to mention the bugs and rats we saw around the property , but that's secondary to the Salt water.
Furthermore the hotel management are FULLY AWARE of the issue and would not cooperate let alone work with us.
Thankfully we wont be visiting ever again. If you do get stuck coming here be for warned and buckle up for a nightmare in Ensenada. Good luck!!

The room was close to the pool. But the room didnt have a working bathroom vent, the shower liked all day. The patio screen kept falling off when used. I like Estero Beach but i feel sad that they dont keep ip with service
8.0 / 10.0
The showers don't always work and all the water that comes off of all the faucets and shower is salt water. The property is nice and spacious
Is like a big compound. But it's about a 30 minute drive to the city center and tourist areas where the good restaurants and shops are

I booked 4 rooms and I didn’t have not even one of them down stairs on view, also, we get to this hotel to relax and to enjoy time, but the hotel maintains staff woke us up early morning around 7:00 Am cutting trees, they were so noisy, our kids started crying since that time. When I talked to reception about that, they didn’t do anything and didn’t care. I don’t recommend this place anymore and I wish Expedia to solve this problem .

I used to frequent Estero Beach Resort when I was a child with my family. I have been dying to go back to experience it with my children, but wasn't sure of the shape it would be in after so many years (approx 20 years!).
All I can say is I was BLOWN away. The service was amazing, the grounds are kept up so nicely. The rooms have been redone and are so beautiful. We were upgraded to a pool/ocean view free of charge and I can't thank them enough for giving us the experience we had. We were met in the parking lot with a luggage cart and walked up to our room. I have never seen service like this in any of the hotels I've stayed at any where else, and I frequent hotels often, ranging from the Intercontinental to Westin Resorts. This resort was by far my favorite experience.
The restaurant and pool side food are phenomenal. We had great experiences for every meal. The drinks are so delicious. And the prices are incredible compared to what you find in the states. We had 8 drinks and food for under $100!! What! The view is spectacular. It's quiet, there are a lot of families. It's very safe and very easy to get to. My biggest concern was safety since I haven't been across the border in quite some time. They have done an amazing job cleaning things up and welcoming tourists in a safe space. I was there on a Thursday through Saturday, I never experienced any rowdiness or loud people. It was so relaxing. The loudest thing was the waves at night, win!! Don't wait. Go there now!!

Very friendly staff, if you see any issues or inconveniences especially in the pool area, just report them to the office and they are quick to take care of it. There was one guest that kept bringing his friends or family from the outside to use the jacuzzis, other guest from the resort wanted to use the Jacuzzis but we’re not able to at certain times due to that.The issue was reported and it was taken care of promptly. Certain guest think that they can abuse their stay, but that’s not how it works there.

The stay here started off great. The check-in process was quick and easy, and someone came out to the parking lot to help us with our bags. The pool area was great for the kids, and the view of the ocean was breathtaking. Unfortunately, the service at the restaurant was terrible, with a long wait time during our dining experience. On our second night, it went from bad to worse. We arrived at the pool area with our children at about 6:45 pm and asked to see a menu for the restaurant, which we received within minutes. However, trying to place an order was a nightmare. My wife and I tried walking to the restaurant 4 different times to place our food order, only to be told to go back to the pool area and wait for a waiter. However, the waiter never showed up. At 10:15 pm, I walked into the restaurant to speak to the manager and was directed to "Mauricio". I explained to him that we had been waiting for food for close to 4 hours, to which he responded, "he was too busy for us". To be clear, this is the only option for food at the resort, and thanks to Mauricio, my children did not eat that night. Mauricio was rude and offered no solution to the problem besides giving him "5 minutes," which we heard over an hour before that. The staff at the hotel was GREAT, especially Mario at the pool area, who came over and apologized to me and let me know that the restaurant was out of his control. I would consider going back but would spend my money on food outside.
