Shoot, if you make it to Camalu, you might as well soldier on and stay with Baja Cactus in ER.

The area where the Baja Cactus Motel will someday expand (behind the white wall/ gate) is where Antonio has let large RVs and people towing boats pull
in for secure, camera watched parking. You need to ask...

thebajarunner..
i like to be unobserved at night with a guard and a chain....
too many people drive in and out
and drive by a pemex station to leave a boat or loaded trailer to be truly secure....
when antonio finishes his secure parking i'll go there...

thanks for the help, we usually cross the border at TJ about 5 am, stop at El Rosario or San Quintin. This time we are crossing the border around
1pm, we decided to spend the night at Estero Beach, if we make excellent time Santo Thomas. thanks again

Two race rigs stolen from Estero
Rumor has it that two complete tow truck/race or prerunners on trailers were stolen from Estero during the Baja 1000. I usually stay at the Bahia,
right in town. Not quite as nice as Estero, but they have remodelled recently and their fenced lot has a 24 hour guard. Don't forget to tip the
guard before you settle in for the night, I figure it's just a little extra insurance.

The Corona hotel has a large lot that can handle a truck and boat. Not sure but I think they have a security guard too. The Las Palmas also has room
for truck and boat. The La Pinta and San Nicolas have fenced areas and I think they have security guards.

I second the recommendation for San Nicholas. Fenced guarded lot. Have used it 3 times with no problems. Rooms are higher than average if that is a
problem. Around $75-$80 I think.

We or I always stay at Hotel Azteca south of town that is protected by wall all the way around with 24 hour security.....not expensive....right off
the road...next to Pem Ex and some food before heading south....they have always been really good to us....and I sneak my dog in too when they aren't
looking.... the nice thing is all the lights and feeling of security for
me....

There are a ton of places that you can stay. Just depends on how much you want to spend.

I thought the point was secure places.
Actually, you are the security. Dont park anywhere without a means to watch your own property.
The U.S. mindset allows for trust and it doesn't work here.
Hose A told the story of the thief who ran to a waiting car. Had he been intercepted, he may have been beaten untill his badge fell out of his
pocket.
Nobody cares that your property is obsconded from a fenced area. Nobody.
Ensenada is a snake-pit and every snake is a thief. It breaks my heart to say this but, I have lived here for too many years and seen too many
changes. It now seems that some disenfranchised feel an entitlement to others property. And that's what's happening. I think it will get worse.

I have found that Las Palmas is the best - reasonable and 24 hour office is in the middle of the parking lot! - A steel gate is raised and lowered
after each vehicle passes - I think they do accomodate boats inside - most secure Hotel in Ensenada!! Great seafood resturant next door if the hotel
one is not open!
