Bring Cash:: When planning a trip to Rosarito, please bring cash
to pay for your meals and place to stay if it's not a hotel. Credit cards are
only accepted in hotels and restaurants that are heavily frequented by tourists.
If you want to go where the locals go (which is a lot more reasonable and in some
cases, BETTER, go off the beaten path, eat better and save money) then bring enough
cash to cover your expenses. If you run out of money, you can use your ATM card
at a local bank's ATM machine and replenish the supply, but keep in mind that
the banks sometimes experience machine problems or run out of cash in the machines Two
places to stay that are not that well known are:
Club Marena--- This is NOT a hotel. Personal owners will rent their
condo units. It's not CHEAP but all units are located so they are ocean front
and it's high class. It's located at K-38.5, a popular surfing cove. You
can call the office directly at: 011-52-661-614-10-20. Call ahead because
it books up quickly. Pay in cash or check. Castillos del Mar--
This is a motel with all rooms on the water. It's located just south of Rosarito.
It's rustic and inexpensive, especially on week days. Phone: 011-52-661-612-1088.
Tell them Roberta sent you.
