Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amrit S. Aug 13, 2018 #### Just book this. Seriously. One of the best houses in Ensenada. Period Casa Bellena was easily one of the best properties I’ve ever stayed at in Ensenada. We are regular visitors and Kim’s house was absolutely outstanding in every way. The views are absolutely incredible with floor to ceiling beauty from every room. Amazing panoramic views both day and night, truly instagram worthy. From the high end appliances, down to the brand names of the soaps, everything is so well appointed and tastefully placed. The welcome bottle of wine and the thoughtful handwritten notes truly made us feel at home, after a long drive. I would blindly book this venue and not even think about it. We’ll be coming back for sure! ##### Amrit S. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Claudia E. Jul 27, 2018 #### Bliss We loved our stay. We wanted to check out of the city and check in to tranquility. The home is airy, spacious, bright and the views are worth a million. The design is very thoughtful, two large bedrooms and two full, spacious bathrooms on opposite sides of the living area. Showers are enormous. Each room and living room has remote contolled, high quality ceiling fans that cool everything down quickly. We we're lucky to have amazing weather, 89 degrees, which we did not feel inside with the fans running. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need. Towels and comfortable linens are provided. The terrace has lounge chairs, BBQ and a charming bird bath. I have never been to Greece, but this home is as close as we can get in Baja. White washed inside and out, Cobalt blue door, Saguaros. Easy to find also. Once you turn in from highway and go through gate you see Casa Ballena. There is a nice man that takes care of the traffic coming in and out of the neighborhood, he has a unique system for opening the gate, you won't have to leave your car. The Bufadora is close, just South five minutes. We look forward to returning. The only problem with Casa Ballena is leaving....we loved our stay! Many thanks. ##### Claudia E.
