My husband I and arived for our first visit (and our honeymoon!) in Puerto Penasco Mexico on Wednesday, July 12 and checked out on Monday, July 17, 2006. We had the most wonderful time! We stayed on the beach at the Playa Bonita Resort hotel. The restaurant there offered a breakfast buffet every morning. The cost was $6.50 each M-F... more

We have stayed at Playa Bonita every year from the year it opened; before that we have been camping on wild Mexican beaches since 1971. The close availability of the excellent beach and accommodations that were comfortable but not glitzy made Playa Bonita a welcome addition to the developing village. Rocky Point has changed over the decades, some to the... more

Let's just say if someone from AZ says "OMG Rocky Point is Just like Cabo San Lucas" please ask them if they have ever been to Cabo San Lucas before you take their advice. Rocky point is disgusting and dirty. Definitely Tejuana with a beach!!! It does not come close to Cabo so these people don't know what they are... more

Playa Bonita was expensive, dirty, and a waste of time. I guess my beef isn't entirely with the hotel itself. It was one of the better hotels in the stink hole of Rocky Point. We went in high season and paid $150 per night. They lost our reservation, so thank God we had the confirmation page becasue they were sold... more

I've grown up going to Rocky Point for a week each and every summer, I'm now 36, so that's 25+ years. I've stayed at the RV Park, beach site, for the past 16 years in a row. I intend on owning a retirement home there as well. I've watched it grow from a sleepy little town to a tourist destination.... more

Puerto Penasco isn't the nicest resort area to go to, there a very little bit of local color, but otherwise a small desert town on the beach. Not as picturesque as you would hope. Scrubby desert plants and sand everywhere. The fishmarket area downtown as tourist souvenir shops, shrimp sellers and restaurants on the point. As far as the hotel... more

This hotel is pretty nice...you cannot compare it to Beverly Hills. It is a BEACH hotel..meaning there might be some sand on the floors and a little dust here and there..but it is a very relaxing place to stay. The food at the restaurant was good. The staff was not over friendly, but, pleasant. The loud fireworks right next to... more

We have been having our family reunions for close to 10 years at Playa Bonita and do not plan on going anywhere else. The location is perfect, the rooms are great. We love the breakfast buffet! The staff is very helpful. We go to relax, play at the beach and in the water. The kids love the swimming pool. Playa... more
