Where to stay in BOLA?

cymeryss - 3-13-2006 at 11:45 PM

I myself are a camping guy, and don't need any special accomodations, but my folks decided to head down to BOLA in about a month, instead of their usual San Felipe-Puertocitos strech. They are taking their fishing poles and 'friends' which don't camp as much, and are looking for some more comfortable accomodations. No hotels, but improved palapas/cabins, and such. Can anybody direct me to some of those spots in BOLA and how to make reservations if possible. The only place I found is Doc's camp Gecko, but am sure there must be others, maybe a private rental? They are looking to stay 3-4 days. Any help appreciated. I will be heading to BOLA in a couple of weeks but with my tent and saco.

Daggett's for cabins... Raquel & Larry's for motel or house rental, Costa del Sol for motel in town.

We found Daggetts to be fairly expensive for what you get and the food at Raquel and Larry's was fair, at best. Of course, we weren't drinking; I'm sure the food would be better after a few beers !!

There must be someplace better ??? :?:

Yes, for food Las Hamacas was always good... and China's taco stand was always excellent (near Las Hamacas, infront of the market/ long distance phone/ Internet store Lizeth's (sp?)...)

Camp Gecko has been my first choice for cabins, palapas, camping... very inexpensive and we Nomads meet up there.

Thanks Dk.

Anyone stayed at Casa Diaz ? I her they have rooms, cabins and palapas for camping ??

I just heard that new stickers were delivered to my Phoenix address and will be forwarded to me soon. Our new vehicles will appreciate the window dressing ! Thanks again !!

We usually stay at Casa Diaz. Large rooms on the sand with patios. Hot water was sometimes iffy. Incredible sun rises from the rooms or patios. Priced about $30-40 per night.
No contact information that I am aware of.

Last post that I read at docs site said he wasn't taking any resevations at Gecko at that time.

Daggetts campsite is the spot for me.....

rubendaggett@hotmail.com and he will get back to you.

Cabanas $35 a night two queens and a hot shower 30ft from the beach.

CAmping $5 per person a night and you get a hot shower to but you have to walk 50 paces.

really cool dude to talk to. If you go tell him Armando says hi. Thanks

Also, two cabins are often available at Campo Archelon (turtle camp) run by Antonio and Bety Resendiz.

Daggetts tried to charge us $18 for two adults and two kids to camp for the night with no hook-up. Just luke warm showers. The place was more than half empty and the restaurant was closed. I was not impressed.
