Or if you want to live a more relaxed experience and be witness of the amazing  view of the ocean and the vineyards from your room, then Cuatro Cuatros is your ideal option. But if you even want to live a more modern an unique experience combined with the amazing night view of the sky staying inside of a bubble, then you will totally love Campera Hotel Burbuja.

Taking a taste of the local gastronomy it's something that you can't stop doing. If you want to give an unexpected twist to your experience, a rotative menu restaurant will be your winner option, restaurants as Corazón de Tierra and Malva are excelent options that will make you fall in love with their original creations that are always changing depending of the seasonal ingredients of the local area. But if you want a more personal attention, in Deckman’s they will be able to make your food according to your own personal preferences.

If you visit the Ensenada area, living the traditional wine tasting tour experience it's definetily a must! You really should taste all the worldwide quality wines in the warehouses and vineyards of the multiple 100% mexican wine brands as Adobe GuadalupeClos de Tres CantosCuatro CuatrosBaron Balch’é and Vena Cava, just to name a few of our many favorites.

This is ideal if you want an equally delicious experience but a little more casual and relaxed that also will allow you to taste all the local flavors. If comfort food is what you're looking for, then you will love Lupe and their traditional tortas (mexican sandwiches) and lunches. Or maybe you would like to get some tapas an good glass of wine in Adobe Food Truck. But if you want to have something more meaty and luscious, then maybe a pork loin or a rib eye of Troika will be your best option.  


5. Craft beer tasting

Baja has been recognized a lot lately for its high quality craft beer, so if you're more of a beer than a wine person, then visiting some of the tasting rooms of the area would be your perfect choice. Some of the most recognized brands of Ensenada are Media PerraAguamalaWendlandt , Cervecería Doble C and Baja Brews Collective.
