About this property
Ensenada Escape - Hidden Beaches and Amazing Adventures
Ready to get away from it all? This place is for you!
What might you do here in between amazing sunrises and sunsets? Watch whales swim by, walk down to secluded beaches, explore family-friendly outdoor activities, or just sit back and soak in endless coastline views.
More information You are on top of the world and everything else feels far, far away!
Less than three hours from San Diego, every day feels like a week of vacation!
No TV! BBQs, full kitchen, cool bathrooms.
Now there is a new loft space, too!
THE SPACE The main house has three bedrooms (1 king, 3 queens) with two bathrooms, a large living room/dining room/kitchen area, and a ping pong table on the patio. All of the bedrooms have amazing views of the ocean and the mountain ranges will often change from red to purple at dusk.
The brand new loft space includes the property's fourth bedroom (2 queens), shares a patio with the house, and has its own private entrance, a mini-kitchen, dining area, full bathroom, and lounge space.
A fifth bedroom (2 queens) is located under the house and is available by request only. It is the least glamorous space on the property, but it does have its own private entrance, private bathroom, and a small view of the ocean. Nobody would choose this room as their first choice if they came by themselves, but the space is popular for those seeking more privacy when they come in big groups.
The entire house and loft space are 100% solar-powered! I have just upgraded my system so that the house has more power than ever before, but everyone still must do their part to conserve energy and water, especially during cloudy days. The larger the group, the more this applies... and hope for few cloudy days!
GUEST ACCESS Groups of up to 8 people will have access to all of the main house, including the large kitchen with plenty of cooking supplies. Groups of more than 8 people will have access to the main house and the new loft space, which also has its own kitchen space and even an additional bathroom. (Small groups can access the loft at an additional cost.)
You will also have access to the driveway that easily fits four cars or more, the newly remodeled wood deck, the palapa hut with a hammock, BBQs, and - saving the best for last - all of the trails that lead to hidden beaches in every direction.
Guests can rent stand-up paddleboards and kayaks that are similar to the ones featured in the pictures at La Bufadora (about 10 minutes away).
INTERACTION WITH GUESTS If you arrive during daylight hours, local celebrity Carmen will be waiting for you at the house and will help you get all settled in. If you arrive after dark, we will leave the lights on for you. Either way, enjoy the bumpy dirt road for the last mile of the journey. Drive slowly around the twists and turns, and know that this is where the adventure truly begins!!
For additional cost and with advanced notice, we can also offer catering and all-day wine tours. After years of providing these tours, we have all the best connections at all the best wineries.
As I live near the border and Carmen lives just a couple minutes away from Ensenada Escape, Carmen will be your best point of contact during your stay.
SPECIAL DEALS Need something last-minute? If you send me a message ahead of time, I will usually drop the price for non-holiday weeknights IF they are available during the following week. Usually, though, nearly all weekends get booked weeks or months in advance.
