lodginglodging reservations in Calafia

According to 15th century Spanish myth, Calafia was the name of a queen who reigned over an island named California. Named after this strong, mysterious woman, the Calafia Resort has become a symbol of hospitality in the Baja peninsula. Calafia has the only Baja theme park. It displays a wide variety of archaeological replicas form Mesodermic cultures, and California Missions as well as replicas of rupestrian cave paintings and a Spanish fort with a galleon dating from the 16th Century. So needless to say, this place is kinda a mini tourist trap. It is not uncommon to see tour buses here.

    Calafia Ocean Resort delights in a rich and spectacular panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean. Enjoy the Mexican bazaars, ocean front bars, dance club on the Pacific Ocean. Choose from one of five restaurants. The recent smash hit movie Titanic was filmed inside here & nearby, so they really cash in on this part of the celebrity-tourism. Ocean front weddings, seminars & convention facilities available. This place looks like it can handle a conference, banquet, wedding or any other large event that you wanna throw their way.
