Hotel Las Dunas is a hidden gem just a short taxi ride from the busy parts of town, providing a peaceful retreat with decent food and nice amenities. The rooms are comfortable, especially the second floor ones with a balcony. However, the dining options could improve and it might be challenging to find the hotel for first-time visitors. Overall, it offers great value for money with some wonderful features but comes with a few minor inconveniences.

I had a pleasant stay at Hotel Las Dunas, which is tucked away from the busy areas yet just a quick taxi ride to shops and nightlife. The rooms offer decent comfort with a nice balcony if you're on the second floor. The local bar is a plus for those looking for a chill vibe, but it can get a bit noisy on weekends if you're close by. Overall, it's great value for money, especially since they have a pool and a small spa, and the staff is incredibly helpful.

Hotel Las Dunas was a pleasant surprise during my trip to Baja California. It's away from the busy areas yet only a quick taxi ride to shopping and nightlife. The restaurant and bar at the hotel offer decent food, but it's better to explore downtown for more options. While the atmosphere is peaceful, bringing your own towels and toiletries is recommended. Overall, it's a great value for the price, especially given the quiet environment and nice pool and spa.
