This was our first visit, and we were very pleasantly surprised. The property was clean, comfortable, and, most importantly, family-oriented. We didn't bring our children with us this time, but we will definitely return with them. The swim-up bar at the pool was excellent, and the restaurant was strategically located close to the hotel but far enough away not to cause a noise issue. We will definitely return.

Once a Family Gem, Now a Party Zone – Disappointed
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 The rooms, once charming with their “old-world” decor, now just feel outdated and in need of an upgrade.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.

Las instalaciones están demasiado descuidadas, había hormigas por todo el cuarto, todo está muy viejo, el precio es elevado para lo que se ofrece, el personal fue amable pero no pudimos descansar debido a las condiciones tan pobres del lugar, nos llevaron un spray para fumigar nosotros mismos, con miedo ya que llevábamos un bebé y también había hormigas en la cama, el agua completamente salada no pudimos bañar a nuestra bebé y optamos por comprar agua para poder lavarnos los dientes
