We hope you have everything you need for an uninterrupted stay but if somethings a miss we can come running!

Rocky Point is a paradise just South of the US border and the Sonoran Sea Resort is your front row seat to some of the best sea shell hunting, beaches, and exquisite sunsets.

There are three challenging golf courses in the area for the golfers in your group as well as several educational opportunities such as the Intercultural Center for the Study of Deserts and Oceans (CEDO), the Pinacate and Great Desert Biosphere Reserve, or take a boat trip to bird island!

Drive over to the Old Port area of Rocky Point for many restaurants, popular bars, art galleries, tourist shops and stands, fish market stops, and a large plaza for special events.

There are also many opportunities for deep sea fishing excursions and private charters. If you are looking for more adventurous activities, drive across the dunes on rental ATVS or ride the waves on a jet-ski. If you wish to get a bird’s eye view of the beach, soar above in an ultralight, or parasail over the Sea of Cortez. Banana boats can be found on the beach and kayaking is another fun activity. Sunset cruises are a fun way to enjoy the beautiful sunsets.

Need spa services? Just next door you have the full service Sonoran Spa!

Just under 4 hours drive from Phoenix, Puerto Peñasco (Rocky Point) awaits to lull you into a beach town vibe and remind you what life is all about.

The border is open from 6am - 8pm daily. We recommend adding the CBP Border Wait Times App to your phone. Select Mexico Border Crossing and locate your town of entry.

Crossing the border into Mexico is a breeze and specific to Rocky Point. Tourism is consider essential travel for this tourist dependent community. No Covid test is required in either direction. Other than an occasional second look by border patrol and you are on your way.

Returning to the US, simply drive thru and adults will need to present a valid US passport and minors can have passport or birth certificate. A couple routine questions to ensure you are not bringing wildlife or plants that could be dangerous to new environments, a drive thru X-ray, and then you are on your way.

When you arrive in Rocky Point you will find our beach front location puts you steps away, or a quick drive, to all Rocky Point has to offer.

We are happy to provide more recommendations upon arrival that are sure to enhance your Rocky Point experience. We look forward to hosting you and your loved ones!

We have ample secure parking for each house allowing for up to 3 cars or bring your boat and toys. We've got room!

Rent an ATV while visiting! Lots of fun!

it is a nice bonus that it is an end unit - the balcony effectively has sunlight from two sides and is also large. Also, all bedrooms have natural light due to lay out (laundry room even has a window.

Great Unit

We had a lovely stay. The unit had most everything we needed. It's important to note that you need to bring your own drinking water and the owners gave that info ahead of time. There is plenty of seating and the beds were comfortable. A nicely stocked kitchen and plenty of towels. We couldn't have asked for anything better.

Rocky Point in May

This is by far the nicest condo we’ve stayed at, at this property! It has awesome ocean views, is close to the elevators, but also nice and quiet! The resort staff and accommodations are always great! Only comments we have was there was a pretty significant musty/sewer smell coming from the laundry room. Even after running water in all the sinks and floor drains it persisted. It would clear out if you opened all the doors, but then you couldn’t run the a/c. Also the kitchen could be a LITTLE bit better stocked with silverware and pots and pans. We wanted to make spaghetti dinner one night but there was no pot to boil the water.

Absolutely the best condo here!

We have stayed at the Sonorean Sea several times. This condo was by far the best. All the furniture is upgraded. The tv in the livingroom is huge. There are tvs that actaully work in all the bedrooms.The beds were all amazing, the outdoor furniture was perfect. It was nice to have a table outside that would actually seat everyone and the couch and lounge chairs were a great bonus. The kitchen was well equipped with nice dishes, etc. Not cheap stuff. This is the only condo we will book from now on! The owner was great. He kept in touch and made sure we had everything we needed. Book thus one. You won't be disappointed.

Can't Say Enough

What a perfect place for a perfect weekend. The condo was lovely and having three bedrooms was so nice, that no one had to sleep on a couch or pullout. The views from the 8th floor are incredible. The patio has a direct and unobstructed view to the west, so watching the sunsets is world-class from a chaise lounger. The host was amazing. Very timely and clear communication on every aspect of our stay. You can tell they certainly care about your experience and are extremely responsive and helpful. Pro-tip: close and/or lock the front security door, but keep the main wooden door open. Then open the patio slider and you'll have the most amazing breeze whipping through the condo. If only I could bottle that breeze up and take it with me. Thanks Rob! Truly a lovely weekend!
