About Posada Colibrí
A sun terrace with a pool and hot tub, a hundred metres from Álvaro Obregón.
It sits in Malecón, which is the part of La Paz that decides most of what your days look like. Paseo Álvaro Obregón — the five-kilometre seafront promenade where La Paz takes its evening walk. Rooms here trade quiet for sunsets and street food. It is a guesthouse, so expect a handful of rooms, an owner or manager on site, and a level of informality that suits some travellers exactly and irritates others. Officially rated 3 stars.

Distances are straight-line from the mapped position, so road journeys run longer — La Paz is built along a curved bay and the beach road doubles back on itself.
Getting around from here
You are on the promenade, so the evening walk, the taco carts, the boat-tour offices and most of the bars are outside the door. Downtown is a few blocks inland. Beaches are 25 to 30 minutes north by road; agree a return pick-up time with your driver if you go to Balandra.
How it compares
Against the hotels in the same area it trades service for price, and often trades a private bathroom for a conversation with someone who did the whale shark trip yesterday. Nearby alternatives worth pricing include Baja Club Hotel, Casa al Mar, Hotel HBlue Malecón. If you want a resort with a spa and a golf course instead, that is CostaBaja.

Questions
About staying here
Where is Posada Colibrí?
In Malecón, La Paz, Baja California Sur. Paseo Álvaro Obregón — the five-kilometre seafront promenade where La Paz takes its evening walk. Rooms here trade quiet for sunsets and street food. The Malecón promenade is on or beside the promenade from here.
Can I walk to the Malecón and downtown?
Yes. Everything central is within a short flat walk.
How do I check prices and availability?
Use the live rates for Posada Colibrí and enter your dates. Current prices, the property's own photo gallery and verified guest reviews are all there, and the same search lets you compare it against everything else in the city.
Is it a good base for Balandra and the island trips?
It works, with the caveat that Balandra and Tecolote are 25 to 30 minutes north by road. Espíritu Santo day trips leave from the city marinas and from Playa El Tecolote, and most operators will collect from central hotels.
How far is it from La Paz airport?
11.3 km in a straight line — reckon on 20 to 35 minutes by road depending on traffic through town. There is no airport train or public bus; it is a taxi, a pre-booked transfer or a hire car.
Is there parking?
Downtown and Malecón properties vary — some have a gated lot or valet, others expect you to use street parking, which is free but fills up on weekend evenings. Confirm it on the booking page if you are hiring a car.
