Our friends at Discover Baja Travel Club have put together a list of their favorite budget accommodations on the peninsula where travelers will get great value without breaking the bank. The following hotels are all under US$40/night for double occupancy.
San Quintin, B.C.
Price: $600 pesos
As the name suggests, the rooms are set into cozy lush gardens and grounds. This stop makes the perfect first or last night of a Baja road trip with its proximity to the border and serene setting. They do allow pets in certain rooms, but make sure to call in advance.
Just next door is the Jardines restaurant serving Mexican and American food and with a bar with happy hour from 4-6pm Wed-Sun.
El Rosario, B.C.

Price: $450 pesos
Visitors can stop to fill up on gas at the Pemex and stay in luxury accommodations for just a few pesos. Mama Espinozas is right next door so you dont even have to worry about driving back to your hotel after too many lobster burritos and margaritas. Its no secret that this is one of the best deals in Baja, so make sure you call ahead to reserve a room. Insider Tip: The rooms in the back of the hotel are newer and get less road noise since theyre set back farther from the highway.
Guerrero Negro, B.C.
Price: $550 pesos
Theres no shortage of cheap accommodations in Guerrero Negro, but what sets Terra Sal apart from the rest is the quality of your stay. The large and spacious rooms are up to modern standards with wifi, air conditioning, and key card entry. They accept credit cards for payment too. The convenient location is just off of Mexico 1 as youre coming into town. Theres an on-site restaurant, BajaTerra, with good food and cheap prices. Theyll even deliver to your room if youre tired. This is a prime overnight spot for road trippers with a large parking lot, with a 24/7 security, thats plenty big enough for trailers. The property is also pet friendly (for an extra $100 pesos per dog).
San Ignacio, B.C.
Price: $550 pesos
Unlike most accommodations around San Ignacio, the new La Huerta hotel has a great location right in town. You can walk to the town square and the San Ignacio mission, the famous Tortilleria La Mision, and other restaurants and cafes in town. There are 21 rooms that are nicely appointed and up to modern standards. Theres currently a market on the property and theyre in the process of building a restaurant. Insider tip: If visiting in winter (San Ignacios peak season is Jan-April for gray whale watching), only the rooms on the second floor have heating.
La Paz, B.C.S.
Price: $595 pesos
This hotel is set right in the center of La Paz and on the malecón, walking distance to restaurants, shops, and the excitement of the city. The rooms are designed more like mini apartments so you get kitchenettes and living spaces with rooms. Insider tip: With room balconies that overlook the malecón, accommodations here can provide some of the best views in town for La Pazs annual Carnaval parade each February.
