This small palm tree lined motel has an excellent location just north of Ensenada and is rated as extremely pet friendly by well known Baja author Ann Hazard. If you are looking for a nice spot to camp with your pets that is close enough to Ensenada to enjoy the convenience of its shopping and many attractions, this may be a great choice!

Economically priced, Motel California features eight RV "back in" sites, hot showers, washrooms and electricity. Tent campers are welcome and, happily, the facilities are open year round. There are also a number of charming rooms, some of which have a fabulous ocean view and nice grassy lawns extending from behind the rooms toward the water.

Surfers couldn't ask for a nicer access to great waves - grab your board and head down through the descending staircase in the cliffside stone wall and you can paddle straight out! The wave is a fun peak with long rights and shorter, punchy lefts that peel over the rock reef. The offshore kelp bed helps keep the waves glassy throughout the day. The reef can get shallow at low tide, so booties are recommended.

Whether you are camping or enjoying your peaceful room, Motel California invites you to view northern Baja California in a whole different light while enjoying its amazing temperate climate and spectacular terrain. You and your pets can experience a perfect balance: all the excitement of Ensenada coupled with with amazing ocean views and great surf.
