Ventana Bay Resort

Fantastic experience with Ventana Bay Resort! Our accommodation was lovely and well appointed. We were on a hill overlooking the ocean with a nice private patio. Our room was beautiful and spacious. The manager, Toni Moreno, went out of his way to make sure that everything was perfect. The atmosphere is laid back, quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed breakfast on site a couple of days and it was delicious. There is also a grocery market and several nice restaurants nearby. The location, just outside the main area, was perfect for a relaxing stay. They have an onsite instructor for water activities and the snorkeling right off the beach was amazing! I would highly recommend a stay here and hope to be a repeat customer! 😊

Desde la llegada uno debe abrir y cerrar la reja y si es de noche todo obscuro , llegar al hotel desde el aeropuerto 50kms y de esos 3 kms para llegar de terracería, solo había desayuno de 8:00 a 9:30 y siempre muy reducido el menú. No hay alberca, TV ni radio, en el cuarto solo un refrigerador y una cafetera, la playa llena de piedras, la arena sin nada de cuidado ni siquiera propia para caminar. Solo hay una persona como encargada y no está en el día solo va en ratos y después de las 18:30 se va y no hay nadie.

Gorgeous casitas overlooking the bay. Boutique resort on the beach with kitesurfing, kayaking or SUP. Each villa has privacy and a spacious interior. Stunning sunrises and moon rises from the patio. Nice breakfasts at the restaurant or kitchenette in the casita. Loved it. A special private place.

This the jewel of the Baja. This resort is amazing! The views for the casitas are amazing, our casita is private had a nice private outside shower, two lounge chairs, and a table with chairs for morning coffee or afternoon margaritas.
The staff is friendly and willing to help with anything you need. The beach is PERFECT, not crowded, in fact if we saw 3 other people we were surprised.
The food is amazing! This beach is perfect!
La Ventana is a great little sleepy village with great food, friendly people and a high number of expats. The drive to La Paz is easy, just look out for the Mexican police leaving La Paz in the afternoon. They’ll try to shake you down for money, all you tell them is “I know I’ll get into trouble and so will you if I pay here. Take me to your station and I’ll gladly pay the ticket.”
More than likely he’ll say, “No ticket”, and let you go.
All in all a great resort. We’ll be back next year.

A fine property with friendly management. La Ventana/El Sargento is a premier kiteboarding and wingfoiling destination, so it that's what you're here for, this is a very good spot because of its large stretch of beach open for guests only. That makes for less crowded water, which reduces collisions and accidents with tangled lines and less experienced boarders. The public areas farther to the south have many more kites and foils.

This property also offers gear and lessons through independent and experienced instructors; also whale watching tour boats can pick you up on the beach by arrangement. I caught sunrise on the beach here every day.

A downside of the property is that beyond breakfast, there are no food options, but that is not really a big deal because not too far away, by walking up or down the beach, there are good and affordable restaurants. With a car or farther walking (along the dusty main road), there are many good (even excellent) restaurants "in town"; small grocery stores also have food you can keep in your room in the small fridge.

The township area is generally safe because it is in the best interests of the locals and other powers-that-be not to upset the tourist & windsport economy that is the lifeblood of this area.

Overall, a fine experience here and if I were to come back to this part of Baja, I'd gladly stay here again.

La experiencia es increíble, el lugar es maravilloso, muy tranquilo, me encantó que las cabañas estuvieran separadas del resto. Se encuentra a pie de playa, la cual está sola y espectacular. las personas que atienden el lugar son muy amables y te envían vía Whatsapp información muy valiosa sobre lugares cercanos, restaurantes y eventos.

Great place for a chill week in Baja

Nelly, Tony and staff were amazing! Great place if you kite or foil board. Relaxing, clean and restful

Muy buen servicio

Hermoso lugar, playa espectacular, se ve toda clase de peces en paseo en cayak

Hotel muy bonito y tranquilo si lo que buscas en descansar en medio de la naturaleza y en un ambiente “hippie” en el buen sentido.

Amazing place. Warm welcoming, staff attentive to needs, beautiful place, beach front, amazing views, beautiful landscapes, ocean front, most of all we were very respected. Price was more than reasonable and the breakfast was delicious.

We had a lovely peaceful three night stay at Ventana Bay Resort and are plotting how to get back soon! Our bungalow was simple, beautiful and comfortable, designed with real care. I loved having private outdoor space to read, lounge, watch birds and stars. Breakfast daily was an add on and totally worth it! We were lucky enough to arrive on an afternoon when dinner was served and the meal absolutely delicious. Service is very low key, but everything we needed was easily accessible. Very quiet, chill vibe. Super enjoyed waking up and taking our coffee to the rooftop bar area to watch the sunrise over the bay, then strolling down to get a little snorkeling in before the winds picked up in the afternoon.

I had an amazing time at this resort during my yearly kitesurfing trip. The bungalow in which I stayed was clean and comfortable. The restaurant had a great view of the ocean and there was even an upper deck bar. The beach was easily accessible and there was a kite school on the premises. However, the best part of my experience was the staff. From the General Manager, Tony, to everyone else, they made me feel at home. I will definitely be returning to this wonderful place for years to come.

love this place. felt like home. staff super friendly.

The website advertises a bar and dinner available with reservations. This is false. There is no bar. There is a beautiful rooftop sitting area that was a bar at one time. You are welcome to bring your own drinks. A limited breakfast and lunch can be had from the restaurant if reservations are made beforehand. There is no dinner service available at all. The lack of a microwave in the room and the fridge being very small makes bringing food back a bit of a pain in the butt. The absence of bar and dinner restaurant, combined with the need to drive to and from town, was a large negative for our holiday. For us, having an afternoon cold one or a night cap with other travellers is part of the experience. If we had known this was the case prior to booking, we would have not chose this hotel. Can you actually call it a resort if there is no bar. For this reason I would not recommend staying here.

Had an amazing time at Ventana Bay Resort! Photos don’t do this hotel justice - the rooms, views and grounds are spectacular!

You’re able to kiteboard right from the beach, which is one of the most expansive ones in the area. The casita was very comfortable and equipped with everything needed for a long stay. Enjoyed watching fish jump in the mornings while the waters were calm and kiting in the evening when the wind picked up.

Nelly did an incredible job accommodating us and assisting with booking activities. Highly recommend staying here if you’re traveling to La Ventana!

What an amazing experience. Ventana Bay Resort lived up to every expectation we had in escaping to Baja and La Ventana. The Casitas are clean, roomy, private and oozing with Baja charm. The property is quiet and the view from our Casita was amazing. Nelly and her staff made us feel like family. Always available if we needed something, but rarely seen...a rare accomplishment. Don't miss the incredible breakfast made fresh to order.
If you are looking to experience Baja the right way, this is it. We will be back again and again!

Thank you Nelly, and your incredible staff...well done!

Es un lugar hermoso. Las playas son hermosas, parecen una alberca gigante. Muy tranquilo, muy buen servicio. Solo para tener en cuenta, esta apartado de todo, se necesita vehículo

We had a wonderful stay at La Ventana Bay Resort! It is secluded and romantic and the property is very well cared for. The service is wonderful too! We had breakfast and lunch at the resort and the food was delicious!
