Also security is always a concern for the car. Hotel with guard who walks the lot a plus

When you enter Mulege from Hwy 1, go under the arch, down the dip, and just past the tope, there is a 2storey hotel on the left with courtyard parking. (Forgot the name) . Also, behind the laundromat, there is the hotel Terrazas with parking. If security is that important, Talk to Adolpho at the souvenir shop "How many, What Color". He speaks English, is reliable, honest and helpful.

umm, I think you mean the Hotel Hacienda just off the plaza. It's got two stories and has parking on the street behind the hotel with a back entrance, but no security guard. There's also two options outside of town and just south on Mex.1 : Motel Cuesta Real, small quiet & safe, park near your room; Hotel Serenidad, big sprawling quiet & probably safe. Both have on-site restaurants.

Actually, that would be the Hotel Mulege...inside courtyard parking with a gate that is locked at night. There is someone in the office 24 hours a day. I have stayed there often...very conveniently located in town. The phone number is....011-52-615-157-1611. They are owned by the family that also owns the orange and grapefruit orchard out in the valley behind Mulege.

Immigration office in Santa Rosalia, but don't wait until you get there to buy your FMM if that is what you need one for. Get your paper work at the border!!!! But then again you may never be asked for it.

I'd rent one of Cliff Taylor's homes in the Oasis park which is in Mulege. His website is www.clementinesbaja.com and he has several 2-bedroom homes which would be great for you. There is an immigration checkpoint in Guerrero Negro and if anyone will ask for your tourist visa that's where it will happen. Best to get your visa at the border in TJ and then not worry about getting nailed at the checkpoint. If you stay at Cliff's security is not an issue; you'll be fine. Best to contact him via e-mail.

Just to make it clear, the laws now require that one get tourist paperwork at the border. If you enter any immigration office, anywhere else, you can get fined and I think it is $100.

I second the suggestion for Cliffs places...they are clean and pretty. Safe. They have a kitchen so you can cook or they are within walking distance of a local eatery.

My question still is why would he need to stop at immigration anywhere if he has a temp res card...which I take to mean a Residente Temporal card for which, as far as I know, there is no need to stop at immigration. Maybe for who is traveling with him but not for the card holder. Cliff's places are great and you are closer to the Jungle. Jim

Oh, you're right, and its a good choice for in-town lodging.
The most charming place in town is Las Casitas. Near the Hacienda and central plaza it has a good restaurant and sweet rooms in a tropical courtyard. Street parking, however.

Edited to say that cocoscabana & mulegejim are absolutely correct, "go under the arch, down the dip and just past the tope...".
Its the tope reference that threw me off.
There are so many topes ns this town (i get lost counting at 20) that we locals call the place Tope-ge!

For one night I would recommend staying in town. You can walk to shopping, restaurants etc. Having lived in the Mulege area I wouldn't worry about car security but that may just be me. I never locked the car (while in town) and never had any problems.

I have parked overnight at several of the hotels in Mulege, and other towns in BCS with no troubles. I don't leave items in the bed of a truck or on the roof, however.

I am guessing that the FMM might have been for the 2nd person going south and not the temp resident person.

Stopped in Mulege for the night on a Thursday this past May. Stayed at the Hacienda. Good price, good location, and semi-secure parking. But...couldn't find an open restaurant in town. Very surprising to me; seemed like a bit of a ghost town, in a way. Had to go to the Serinidad restaurant where the food and service really, really sucked.

I am hoping that my recent experience was an anomaly because I have fond memories of Mulege being lively, quaint, and in my opinion, one of the great places, for so many reasons, in all of the Baja.

MitchMan:
This is kind of a shock.. We live in Mulege until about mid June before we head north... We were eating at Las Casitas just down the street from the Hacienda.. also Miley's as you enter town on the right and Equipales on the 2nd floor across from Comex.. I think that Scotty's (El Candil) might have been closed but not sure... Those are the main ones in town.. All good... Even Jungle Jims should have been open... Chili Relliano night on thursday... Most close either monday or tuesday... open the rest of the week... Other than those you can go out by the lighthouse to El Patron.
We were there in May and didn't have any problems... but something may have been going on that day...
Better luck next time... Its still a good place to find good food...
