It was our first time visiting Ensenada and just wish we could have stayed longer. Traveling was my wife, 2 kids and in laws. From previous reviews we knew the road was unpaved so we thay wasn't a surprise, but do expect other surrounding roads the same. Although the area doesn't scream nice we never experienced anything bad we felt safe. Getting keys was easy they give you a code to get the keys. When entering the house did have a foamy/dusty debris on the floor we just swept it up. All rooms were spacious and had plenty of blankets and everything seemed clean. Kitchen had everything needed. The house doesn't have A/C but we found a fan we tend to get hot easily and i assume the temperature doesn't get to high lol. The downside was there was really no hot water you had a 2 min window to get it and that was it lol so we broke record times on showering. Another down side and this was a bit shocking but the water is salty! Didn't leave the skin feeling sticky but never had that experience before. The terrace was nice but didn't get to enjoy the sound of the waves, there is a house being built across the street so the people started work early and at night you just heard dogs barking. The view was minimal fron the terrace. But there is Cactus beach really close by you just pay about $8 to go in and it is small but clean and they have a booth that sells fruit and snacks. We were also close to a Calimax (grocery store) and there were several food spots to stop at.
