The exterior at Casa Chapman

Property Walkthrough: Casa Chapman

When a beach vacation has been a dream of yours for a lifetime, you aren’t going to be satisfied with a vacation home that lies “near the beach” or “within walking distance of the sea.” You want a home where the sea breezes carry its scent throughout the space and the sounds of waves crashing against the sandy shores bring peace to your heart. You want to step outside and walk a few steps, not stopping until your bare toes hit sand and continuing to walk until the waters creep up around your ankles, ebbing and flowing, and washing away all the troubles you may still be harboring, even during your vacation in paradise. You want what Casa Chapman has to offer, and FMI Rentals can make it happen during your getaway to the coastal village of Rocky Point! Offering 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and the lifestyle you have always dreamed about, this guide to the charms and comforts of Casa Chapman will give you a little something more to look forward to during the long days that lead up to your exciting vacation in Mexico.

Sea Breezes and Palm Trees

As you pull up out front of Casa Chapman for the very first time, it may appear very much like almost every other Mexican cottage, offering a stuccoed exterior, red tile roof, and a small “forest” of palm trees that never seem to stand still. But the briny scent of the sea, the sounds of seagulls calling out for a meal, and the roar of the ocean will be your first hint that this cozy cottage offers something more! Step into a space that is filled with light, color, and joy and follow the paths made from traditional Saltillo tiles into the rooms that will be your home. A living room decorated in cheerful blues and whites offers a beehive fireplace, (painted a warm blue) comfy places to sit, and a small television that will probably never be turned on as large windows offer a view of the very thing that will make this vacation stand out, sandy beaches and the Sea of Cortez. This beautiful home is spacious enough for up to 14 people to live together in peace and harmony, (the futons in the living room open up into beds) and the fully equipped kitchen decorated with the colorful tiles we love so much is large enough for multiple chefs to share kitchen duty chores! An L-shaped breakfast bar offers overflow seating for 6, and all the small appliances assure that every beverage need will be met! The open concept floor plan allows guests to stay connected as they watch TV, forage for snacks, or hang out at the large dining room table that provides more of those fantastic views.

Now normally this would be the time when we would take you through the private spaces of this charming cottage, but we know you have been patient, and we think now is the time to explore the backyard of Casa Chapman, although perhaps the term backyard doesn’t prepare you for the spectacular seascape you are about to experience. A covered patio topped with red tiles that mirror the Saltillo tiles on the ground covers the expanse of the home, and as you step down two steps to a secondary patio offering a wood picnic table and a tiled arch framing exquisite views, (a popular spot to hold a wedding ceremony) it takes just a few more steps before your toes find sand. Yes, the backyard of this popular escape is the beach that leads to the Sea of Cortez! Wake up every morning and peek out the windows; it will still be there. Spend a day exploring the shops and restaurants of Rocky Point, and when you come back home, tired and flushed with the success of another beautiful day in paradise, it will still be there. Every minute of every day of your stay will be filled with the sights, scents, and sounds of the sea and your soul will be all the better for it! Sunrise walks along shore’s edge, sunset chats about life, love, and the lingering colors in the sky, and moonlit moments spent sitting on the sand and watching the waves ebb and flow; Casa Chapman is destined to be the vacation home you never want to leave!
