The joy of summer ends far too soon in most places, with temperatures dropping, school
starting, and the stress of the fall and winter holidays starting to weigh on our minds, but in
Rocky Point, Mexico, summer is a state of mind that stretches out late into the next season.

The waters of the Sea of Cortez stay warm, the sun shines brightly down on those who walk below,
and our FMI Rentals beachfront sanctuaries will help to continue the summer vibe throughout
your stay. This guide to a Labor Day in Rocky Point will help erase the sting of summer’s end as it opens your eyes to all the possibilities.

Work on Your Tan

It shouldn’t be a surprise that the first thing on our list of fun ways to extend summer through
Labor Day weekend is a day at the beach. Bury your toes in white sands as the sounds of the surf soothe
your soul, let your inner child out as you ride the banana boats crisscrossing the surf, and walk
along water’s edge every morning and every evening of your stay, savoring the stunning beauty
of our Rocky Point sunrises and sunsets.

Adventurers may want to rent jet skis from Xtreme Adventures Puerto Peñasco or parasail with Parasailing Rocky Point, and families with young children may want to spend many happy mornings building sandcastles, constructing a new one each morning after the tide washes away the previous day’s work. Inquisitive kiddos may be thrilled by the life they discover in the tide pools that appear after the tide goes out, as this is the perfect time to get up close and personal with the sea life, including octopi, fish, and shy crabs.

Step into History

Rocky Point is relatively young for a Mexican village, mostly because running water wasn’t
introduced to most of the town until about the mid-1970s. It has a history that extends far
earlier than that, however, a history that is intertwined with America’s history due to
prohibition. When alcohol was illegal in the United States, Al Capone began to visit quite
frequently, in part due to its tropical setting, but mostly because of the alcohol. He made La
Posada La Roca Hotel his south of the border home, and although you will be far more
comfortable in our FMI Rentals retreats, the hotel is still standing and can be a great place to
stop in, perhaps taking selfies in the spots where he once lived.

We do recommend a visit to Al Capone’s Seafood & Pizzeria, where the fresh and tasty food will add to the quality of your vacation experience. For another peek into the past, be sure to stop by the Malecon and pay your respects to El Camaronero, a statue of a fisherman; it’s a great selfie spot as well.

Finding Joy in the Simple Things

Not every adventure needs to be grand and extravagant. Sometimes the most impactful activities are the simple things enjoyed with families. It will still be plenty warm during your Labor Day in Rocky Point, making an ice cream cone from Thrifty a treat that will help beat the heat. Take it to go and enjoy a contest with your tiniest travelers, competing with each other on who can finish it before it melts into a sticky mess and watch their faces light up with joy.

Pour a glass of wine for yourself, and glasses of grape juice for the kids, and all of you can raise a toast to the beauty of a Mexican sunset, making the littles feel as if they are adults for a few moments in time. Or dedicate a few hours to searching for sea shells on Cholla Bay, watching your children delight in the shapes and colors, perhaps even finding a sand dollar that will serve as a beautiful souvenir from this fantastic family weekend. Aside from the small cost of a cone, all of these adventures cost nothing and will be remembered forever.

More Memories in Your Holiday Hideaway

Memories are what helps us stay strong in the hardest of times, and we like to think that the more memories you make the happier you will be, which is why we at FMI Rentals work so hard on providing holiday hideaways that will help you make happy memories.

Being awakened each morning by a pile of kids climbing in your bed, ready to start a day of fun under the sun, watching movies on state of the art televisions on rainy nights, or hanging out in a private pool, watching your youngest swim across the pool on his own for the very first time. Memories are made in our Rocky Point retreats and all you need to do is choose the one that fits your vacation needs the best. Reserve your favorite property today!

The days between Presidents’ Day and Memorial Day seems to stretch out an interminably long amount of time, but they also provide the perfect time to start planning your Memorial Day getaway to Rocky Point and your stay in our FMI Rentals. Offering a beachy start to the unofficial kick-off to summer, our small coastal village will bring travelers fun and excitement while our holiday hideaways will provide a soft place to land after a long day of fun in the sun. This guide to making the most out of your Rocky Point Memorial Day adventures south of the border will help you fill every moment with fun.

Breakfast Spots You Will Love

Our favorite vacation memories often feature the meals we ate in the starring role and because breakfast is the most important meal of the day, your Memorial Day adventures should begin at any of the following places.

Avocato Burrito Republic, Av. Constitución S/N, Centro

Open from 8 AM until 10 PM every day of the week, you may want to return for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, savoring the flavorful delights served here. Their huevos benedictinos (eggs benedict) may surprise you with their delicious and authentic flavor.

Olas Cocina Internacional & Sushi, Blvd. Benito Juárez García 4961, José López Portillo

Also serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, Olas is open 24 hours, making it a popular hangover haven. Serving traditional Mexican breakfasts, including a selection of omelets that are created with locally sourced ingredients, we suggest trying their namesake omelets, the Rocky Point, made with shrimp, green pepper, tomato, onion, and red salsa.

Kaffeehaus, Blvd. Benito Juárez García 216 B, El Puerto

Kaffeehaus serves more than coffee, offering a full menu of breakfast specialties that will ensure visitors have the energy necessary for their Rocky Point adventures. Try the Belgian waffles, you won’t be disappointed.

It’s Always Beach O’Clock in Rocky Point

Now that your belly is full it is time to get your soul fed with the ultimate in summer adventures, a trip to the beach. The beaches will be crowded this weekend, Rocky Point is an extremely popular holiday vacation destination spot, so try to stake your claim on a section of paradise by arriving early. After setting up your umbrellas, chairs, beach blankets, and coolers, the next hours are destined to be carefree and filled with fun. Relax under the umbrellas, letting the salt air and sea work its magic on your frazzled soul, ride the waves atop the colorful banana shaped innertubes being towed across the water, or park a fishing pole in the sand and spend a leisurely day catching your dinners for the rest of the week. There is no rule as to how you should these beachy moments, save one: Enjoy the day and hold the memories close to your heart, to be pulled out and reexamined upon your return to reality.

Eagle and Birdie Watching in Rocky Point

You can leave your Autobahn bird handbook at home on this Mexican adventure, the eagles and birdies we are talking about here are the ones you can earn on the golf course. Golf is fast becoming a popular Rocky Point activity and courses such as Vidanta Golf Puerto Peñasco, Km. 24 Carretera Peñasco Caborca A2 Ejido, Miramar, is one of many reasons why. This Jack Nicklaus designed course is “penned in” by the Sea of Cortez on one side and an inlet to the south, creating stunning scenery that may help you take your mind off how challenging the course is.

Rocky Point ATV Rentals, (480)712-4006

Another popular activity that will bring fun to your Memorial Day in Rocky Point is ATV riding and Rocky Point ATV Rentals can help you make this adventure take place. Inexpensive to rent, the ATVs are fast and powerful, and the helpful staff will guide you to the best places to ride.

Shopping the Sales This Rocky Point Memorial Day

Christmas is rapidly approaching and instead of skipping it altogether, all the cool kids are heading way south to the coastal village of Rocky Point to celebrate. It doesn’t take that many over stressed, frenetic, and loud Christmases to convince people that a holiday at the beach will bring the joy we all need, and when you choose an FMI Rentals holiday hideaway, perhaps a beachfront one, you too will understand the growing popularity of a Mexican noel! This guide to all the reasons you will want to spend this festive and joyous Rocky Point holiday will help bring back the magic to Santa’s busiest night!

Thankful for the Serenity of a Beach Sunset

Normally this would be where we convince people that waking up at sunrise is a good thing, but this is Mexico, and sleep is treasured here, so let’s move the merrymaking and peace seeking to sunset instead. The sky turning a kaleidoscope of fiery colors, the sun dipping ever closer to the blue waters of the sea, and the feeling of toes buried in the sand; these may not be solely Christmas related sensations, but experiencing all of them will somehow be more magical. And on Christmas Eve, when the presents are all wrapped (hopefully!) the grouper you caught on an earlier fishing expedition is prepped and ready to be grilled, and for the moment, the evening is quiet, these sunset moments will bring you a greater appreciation for the craziness that will take place the next day.

You ARE the Gifting King or Queen

There are books written about the many different forms love languages take and for those whose language is gifting, a visit to Rocky Point at Christmas will ensure you earn the title of King (or Queen) of gift giving forevermore. The shops that line the streets of our fishing village are filled with locally created items that are colorful, charming, and inexpensive. Pottery for grandma, silver jewelry for the wife, and a variety of tchotchkes and toys that are guaranteed to be the best gifts under the tree; these are just a few examples of how shopping for Christmas gifts will be your newest obsession. Mermaid’s Market may be your favorite store to shop in, offering a beautiful variety of locally created arts and crafts, including shell art, crocheted items, and traditional Mexican blankets that add charm to any room in which they are found.

Traditional Christmas Activities for a Holiday in Rocky Point

You may be choosing to skip the winter muck and craziness at home with your Rocky Point visit, but that doesn’t mean you are skipping Christmas altogether and many of your favorite traditional Christmas activities can be enjoyed here during your visit. Check out the lighted homes in our communities, driving through on the darkest of nights, or explore the beauty of the downtown area all decorated for the holidays while finishing up your last minute shopping. Enjoy sweet treats from our favorite bakery, Candy Cake Breakfast and Dessert, because Christmas is NOT about the calories you consume, and is about the moments you enjoy, and sip hot cocoa from large mugs on the balcony of your beach front FMI Rentals holiday havens, watching the sea ebb and wave.

New Traditions to Hold Close

The best part of traveling is when you discover new ways to celebrate your favorite holidays and the Mexican tradition of celebrating La Posada may help you enjoy a much longer Rocky Point holiday season. Beginning on December 16th, children lead a small parade through many neighborhoods singing and begging for shelter for poor Mary, stopping by multiple homes before one finally lets them in on the night of Christmas Eve (Nochebuena.) The homes they visit may provide snacks and treats and even if you aren’t unsure of your children taking part in such a personal ceremony, you can reenact a version of this event in the comfort of your FMI Rentals vacation escape. Set up stations in each bedroom with treats, stream some Christmas carols for the kiddos to sing along with, and celebrate with pinatas filled with gifts on the last night.

At Ho-Ho-Home with FMI Rentals

Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas if not enjoyed with your favorite traveling companions, the family that is the end all and be all of your existence. Your stay in our cozy Christmas cottages and condos will be all that much enjoyable because they are with you. Stream holiday movies on your laptops (high-speed internet is an amenity you will love) bake Christmas cookies in our fully equipped kitchens, and dream about all the Christmas beach adventures you will experience in our oh so comfortable and serene bedrooms. Every moment will be the most festive ones when you choose to make FMI Rentals your ho-ho-holiday home; reserve your favorite today!

Although we may think Halloween is a uniquely American holiday, it is actually celebrated in many countries all over the world, including by our neighbors to the south in Mexico. Although primarily a children’s holiday in Mexico and often overshadowed by Día de los Muertos that generally takes place after Halloween has ended, it is still a fun holiday to celebrate, especially right here in Rocky Point. Offering colorful costumes, fun parties, and because of Day of the Dead, the opportunity to extend the celebration, your Halloween visit to Rocky Point and your stay in our comfortable fall escapes will ensure that this holiday will be one you remember for years to come and may even become a new tradition in your family travel schedule! This guide to spending a Rocky Point Halloween in our south of the border hometown will help you get started on your travel plans, ensuring that you won’t miss a single moment of fun and excitement.

Head to the Beach This Rocky Point Halloween

While not a typical Halloween activity, October in Rocky Point is arguably the best time of the year and with temperatures reaching upwards of 75 degrees, you truly can’t miss spending some time on our sandy beaches. The water is still relatively warm as well, especially for those visiting from colder climes, meaning you can swim, frolic in the surf, or ride the banana boats that although they seem a little strange really are a lot of fun! Pack a cooler full of your favorite snacks and beverages and celebrate the holiday relaxing and soaking in the serenity of the sea just one time and you will never want to celebrate any other way ever again!

Celebrate at the Clubs

There is always a party going on in Rocky Point and over Halloween, you can expect them to be holiday themed. Many of the local hot spots will offer costume contests and drink specials and in past years, Manny’s Beach Club has always been the hottest spot in town! It’s still a little soon for more concrete details, but historically, as guests drink, dance, and drink in the laid back vibes of the Mexican Coastline, they could also dress up in their spookiest best, perhaps even winning a price for best costume. Additionally, Wrecked at the Reef, another hot party spot, has often made their Rocky Point Halloween celebrations kid friendly, giving candy to the youngsters, thereby ensuring they enjoy the best part of the holiday as well!

Explore Día de los Muertos

Although the celebrations of Halloween are mostly geared towards Americans, the celebration of Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is all Mexican and in spite of the name, not as morbid as you would think! This two-day celebration is held November 1st and 2nd this year and pays homage to loved ones who have passed onto the next realm with costumes, candy, and parades through the streets, very similar to our own Halloween celebrations. What is different, however, is the belief that spirits return home on this special day to celebrate with their families because this is the day when the curtain between the living and the dead is the thinnest. This holiday can be traced to the pre-Columbian days and its historic range adds richness and depth to the parties that accompany the day and because food is the central part of the celebration, we think you will enjoy it more than other holidays! This popular holiday is celebrated all over town, so don’t be surprised to come across a random parade, surprise fiestas, and many versions of La Catrina hanging out in the streets and at the beaches.

At Home in Your NOT Haunted FMI Rentals Holiday Hideaway!

Some of your best Halloween moments will happen while relaxing and enjoying the comforts and amenities of our FMI Rentals holiday hideaways! Sip homemade witch’s brews on patios and rooftops overlooking the Sea of Cortez, knowing that you don’t have to drive anywhere or be up at any certain time. Our fully equipped kitchens will offer everything you need to create a holiday feast and many, if not most, provide blenders that will allow you to try out new drink recipes. State-of-the-art televisions will be smart ones or cable access so go ahead and binge watch your favorite Halloween horror movies. From the classics (Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Halloween) to the new classics (Halloween 2, 3, 4, & 5) to the final movie of the series (Halloween Kills) you and your favorite traveling companions can enjoy a night filled with spooky thrills! And because we only enjoy haunted houses in the movies, we can promise that not only are our properties not haunted, no nightmares will take place during your nights of happy dreams and sweet oblivion. Reserve your favorite escape today!

Of all the holidays we Americans celebrate every year, there is one that encourages us to take some time to rest, relax, and play. The Labor Day holiday (taking place on September 4 this year) pays homage to all the hard work we engage in throughout the rest of the year and urges us to slow down our pace, live in the moment, and reward ourselves for a job well done, perhaps with a South of the Border getaway! Mexico, Rocky Point in particular, is the perfect place for such a laidback adventure, offering sandy beaches, sunny days, and all the comforts of home in our FMI Rentals holiday hideaways! Slowing down comes easy down here and as you sleep late every morning, take naps (siestas!) in the middle of the afternoon, and play hard but not too hard during your stay, we can assure you that spending a   in our tropical paradise will become a great obsession and a new tradition for you and your family! This guide to all the fun you can have during a holiday devoted to being laidback and carefree will give you some ideas on how to fill each and every one of those vacation moments during a Rocky Point Labor Day weekend!

Starting Out Slow On a Rocky Point Labor Day Weekend

As you roll out of bed, preferably at least a couple of hours later than normal, your stomach may begin to let you know that it has been a little too long since its last meal and although our fully equipped kitchens offer the opportunity to fix your own breakfast, the holiday urges you to let someone else do the heavy lifting! And because this is Rocky Point where the clocks seem to be set to 5 o’clock permanently, the famous Bloody Mary’s offered at Max’s Restaurant and Bar just might be calling your name! Opening at 8-ish and providing a menu filled with a harmonic combination of classic American dishes and traditional Mexican meals, we encourage you to take your time, taste every bite, and let the morning get away from you during this yummy meal!

This Way to the Beach

Now that you have filled your belly, it is time to load up your coolers with your favorite beverages and foods (you will be hungry sooner or later) pack up the beach towels, umbrellas, and chairs, and answer the call of the Sea of Cortez. Golden sand beaches, turquoise waters, and emerald green palm trees swaying in the wind will give you and your family a colorful and restful escape from reality. From here on out, what you do during your time at the beach is on you and the opportunities for fun and relaxation are endless! Maybe you will want to take your turn on the banana boats that skim across the water or maybe a nap after breakfast will be the first thing on your agenda, either is possible and both are highly recommended. Sometimes a walk along shore’s edge, watching people, observing the simple beauty of salt air, sand, and sea can help aid your digestion and at other times a swim in the salty waters may be just what your soul requires. There is no wrong way to enjoy your Labor Day at the beach, even if you do nothing more than sit, daydream, and nap!

The Party Begins Now!

Every celebration deserves a party and the party is always hopping at Manny’s Beach Club! Located at Av. Coahuila S/N, Benito Juárez and staying open until 3 AM on Saturdays, live music and cold drinks are accompanied by the sights and sounds of the sea; Manny’s is an open air club on the beach and the good times never end!

Come Home to FMI Rentals

Of course, the best times may be the ones you decide to stay home and play and as you have closely scrutinized our FMI Rentals holiday hideaways before clicking on Book Now, we are sure that you have picked the one that best meets your relaxation needs! Offering all the comforts of home in spaces that are bright, colorful, and tranquil, you may spend some of your time in the air conditioned coolness of the insides of our properties, but the most memorable times will be the ones spent outside! Perhaps you chose a home that provides the beach as its backyard and sitting out in comfortable chairs watching the tide ebb and flow as you raise your margaritas in a toast to the sunset will be your favorite activity. Or maybe the home you chose features a private pool, gas grill, and a rooftop deck that provides incredible views and another place to celebrate and relax! Just like your day at the beach, there are no wrong homes to choose to make your own this holiday weekend, just many spacious, comfortable, and decadent options! Reserve your favorite today!

As the summer holidays roll around again, Americans are flocking to the beaches of Rocky Point, understanding that this practically Southern Arizona coastal village can provide a peaceful, exciting, and fun-filled 4th of July Rocky Point, Mexico! Falling on a Tuesday in 2023, you may not have a long weekend to explore all that Rocky Point has to offer, but you are probably planning on combining your summer vacation with the celebration of America’s birthday and you get to save up those precious vacation hours as you do. But first, you may be asking why you should consider spending the most patriotic of holidays in a place our forefathers actually did battle with in the early days and our answer is, because you can! Those same forefathers fought for you to have the freedom to celebrate wherever you like and the beautiful holiday havens we at FMI provide for visitors from all over the world will ensure that your time in Mexico will be comfortable, stylish, and oh so exciting!

Breakfast at Kaffeehaus, Located at Blvd. Benito Juárez García 216 B

Breakfast is always going to be the most important meal of the day and you may be wondering why we are suggesting a German named restaurant in the heart of Mexico for breaking fast, but don’t worry, there is a method to our madness! Serving all-American breakfasts that are hearty and delicious in addition to a large selection of baked goods and sweet treats such as pancakes and waffles, your day in the sun will shine brighter when it starts at Kaffeehaus! The coffee is, of course, excellent as well, so go ahead, and enjoy a second cup!

A 4th of July Rocky Point Beach Day for the Win

No, you’re not going to find 4th of July parades with children and small animals running wild through the streets of downtown Rocky Point, but when you park your red towels on golden sands, prop a blue umbrella over your section of sand, and don your white bathing suits that will contrast nicely against your soon to be tan skin, do you think you will even mind? A day at the beach is a great idea any time of the year and on the 4th of July, as the sounds of the sea lull you into a peaceful state, or the rides on the banana boat bring about uncontrollable bouts of laughter, we think you won’t miss the parade one bit! Fill a cooler with your favorite snacks, sandwiches, and beverages, pack a book to read and something that can play your favorite music, and if you find yourself singing Happy Birthday to ME, instead of America, well, there isn’t a soul on earth that will blame you or think you are less than patriotic!

Cool Drinks, Hot Music, and a Dance Floor

The best holidays always involve music, drinks, and a good time and the clubs and bars of Rocky Point are always willing to oblige! JJ’s Cantina is often the center of everything social, offering beachfront tables and every kind of tequila you can imagine, Wrecked at the Reef provides live music (on the sand!) and celebrations for all the American holidays (including 4th of July) and Manny’s Beach Club is the epitome of fun and excitement. Located on a section of the beach that they actually maintain themselves, tiki umbrellas can help protect travelers from the harsh rays of the summer sun, just as the beverages they serve will keep guests feeling chilled! Music lovers may want to hang out at Banditos, a local bar owned by Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers, a good time is guaranteed to be had, especially when the owners are in town and playing!

FMI Rentals for the 4th of July in Rocky Point, Mexico

No matter how you spend your day time hours in Rocky Point, coming home to FMI Rentals can actually provide you with the ability to celebrate all-American style! Choose a cottage on the beach and wake each morning to the sun shining over the Sea of Cortez while strolling along the shore’s edge under the cool glow of the moonlight will provide a peaceful way to end the day. Chances are that although there are no official fireworks shows during your 4th of July escape to the sea, we can almost guarantee there will be some unofficial shows from your American neighbors on the beach! Our homes with big back yard and crystal clear pools are popular during the summer holidays, offering the opportunity to enjoy an Independence Day barbecue just as you might back home! Grill the fish you caught during your fishing expedition earlier in your trip and turn up the tunes you stream from your phone or laptop; high speed internet is just another amenity found in most of our homes! All the comforts of home can be found in our FMI Rentals holiday hideaways; reserve your favorite today!

This year, we at FMI Rentals think we have the solution that will not only impress mom, it will earn you the title of “best gift giver EVER!” This year is the year you should gift Mom a Rocky Point vacation for Mother’s Day and a stay in one of our FMI Rentals south of the border sanctuaries, where skies will be sunny and the waters of the Sea of Cortez will be warm, where they celebrate Taco Tuesday every day of the week, and where the home sweet vacation home of your dreams provides comfort and entertainment. Our guide will paint a clearer picture of just how much this once in a lifetime getaway will mean to mom and the entire family!

Beach Days Await

A visit to Mexico can be a lot of things. It can be an exciting time spent enjoying deep sea fishing expeditions, riding jet skis through the waves, and having a party every night as you hit all the clubs and bars and stay out until the wee hours of the morning. This is probably not the Mother’s Day getaway you have envisioned for your mom, however, and that is ok. Mexico—Rocky Point more specifically—has a thousand faces, and it is the softer ones you will enjoy with mom. Our homes are built to comfort and coddle, offering light filled rooms, modern conveniences, and a cozy welcoming that will make mom feel right at home immediately upon entering the property. Choose a home on the beach where the views will speak to her soul and let her decide which chair on the back deck is going to be her throne. Some of our Mother’s Day havens will offer a private pool in the backyard, many will offer barbecues for dad to grill a meal in place of mom having to cook, and all will provide a carefree vibe that will add to the enjoyment of the getaway. Mom can greet the morning with a cup of coffee and a sense of awe as she watches the sun rise over the water, and she can end every day toasting the sunset with a glass of her favorite beverage. Wine is good, but in Mexico you may want to take her to the Tequila Factory and pick up a bottle that tastes especially good in a margarita. Salud!

Welcome Home to FMI Rentals

Inside, no matter where you choose a condo, home, or cottage on the sea, your adventures will be of the most comfortable sort. Reading in that comfy chair by the window, watching television from the depths of sofas, even playing games at the dining room tables in these family escapes will give mom moments she will never forget. Fully equipped kitchens should be declared off limits to mom, unless she is seated at the breakfast bar with a fresh margarita in hand, imparting tips on how to make the potato salad taste like the one she makes! You, however, are encouraged to spend as much time as you like in our cozy kitchens, making meals, brewing coffee, and whipping up fresh batches of margaritas for all to enjoy.

Rocky Point Adventures to Enjoy This Rocky Point Vacation

Your days in Rocky Point will be filled with even more adventures as you stake your claim on a portion of the beach, spend your hours shopping in cute little stores and boutiques, and dine at restaurants that blend a taste of the sea with the heat and spice of a good Mexican dish. As you participate in all these wonderful adventures, however, in the back of your minds, you and mom will be counting the minutes until you are both able to retreat to the havens of comfort our bedrooms provide. Choose a home with multiple master bedrooms and let mom have her own space in which to relax and unwind or sacrifice that en suite bath and let her take the only master suite. This is her day, her week, her vacation to enjoy and you are here to make sure she enjoys every minute of her south of the border adventures!

Reserve Your Favorite Sanctuary Today

It is never too soon to start planning the perfect gift for mom. Reserve your favorite sanctuary today!

Easter isn’t considered a typical travel holiday, but when you live in the colder climes, why wouldn’t you want to spend a warm week on the beach enjoying all the traditional activities that accompany the holiday? After all, the most important part of any holiday, including Easter, is the people with which you celebrate, and of course, in Rocky Point, FMI Rentals has you covered! Offering beautiful homes on or near the beach where you will spend a large portion of your holiday escape, families will be comfortable, relaxed, and feel right at home in spaces designed with luxury, style, and serenity. This guide to everything you’ll need to enjoy Easter in Mexico on your getaway to paradise will encourage you to start a new holiday tradition, perhaps returning every year for the best Easters ever!

Just Relax This Easter in Rocky Point

You deserve this bonus week away and Easter in Rocky Point is the perfect time to relax. Throw out all your preconceived notions of how you should spend this important holiday and begin looking at all the exciting possibilities that lie ahead! Instead of your Easter brunch, where you spend all your time in the kitchen preparing a meal that is devoured and forgotten in mere minutes, or alternately, getting dressed in your fancy clothes and heading to the nearest restaurant for an expensive Easter Brunch, why not plan an Easter picnic on the beach? Toss together some ham sandwiches in our fully equipped kitchens, pre-mix some mimosas, (keeping glass in the kitchen where it belongs!) and gather up your beach gear for a relaxing and fun day of frolicking in the surf, building sandcastles at water’s edge, and soaking in the rays of the sun. Easter Sunday is destined to be as sunny as most every other day in the spring, and beach temperatures may reach a balmy 81 degree, so while your family back home in Idaho or Wyoming is very likely digging out from under another early spring snowstorm, you and your family can be working on your tans!

The Easter Egg Hunt They Will Never Forget

Easter egg hunts can take place anywhere, and our FMI Rentals holiday hideaways offer plenty of places to hide the eggs you boiled in our fully equipped kitchens and decorated on the back porches that may overlook the Sea of Cortez. Hide them inside, behind pillows on plush and colorful sofas, in bathroom cabinets under sinks made from Spanish tile, or even in the bedroom closets, perhaps in the suitcases you unpacked at the beginning of your stay. Homes on the beach may offer more than a few places to hide the eggs outside, at the base of the palm trees swaying in the gulf breezes, under the picnic table where you decorated the eggs the night before, or for families with older kids that still appreciate the hunt, on rooftop decks with views of Rocky Point spread out before you!

Easter Cocktails

All the best celebrations have a special drink that makes them stand out. At Thanksgiving, it could be mulled wine, at Christmas it is more than likely eggnog, and at Easter? Pretty much any cocktail you like can be considered the themed drink of the day, but we have a few listed below we think will be the star of your vacation! A Raspberry Rose Sangria, made with a bottle of rose, raspberries, and lemon lime soda, is one sparkling drink that will make your holiday sparkle brighter, or Peach Prosecco Punch created with prosecco, peach nectar, raspberries, and blueberries. Either of these drinks can be made in large batches, leading to easy refills and a really great celebration!

The Fun Continues

Opening Easter baskets left overnight, watching Easter movies on Smart televisions, or even attending sunrise services of your own church online; there are so many options of how to celebrate this spring holiday when you choose our FMI Rentals vacation sanctuaries for your Easter escape. Embrace something different with picnics on the beach or stick with the tried and true and create a holiday feast in our updated kitchens and enjoy the results at large dining tables or even on the patio tables on the porch. Some of our holiday hideaways will offer private pools, giving the opportunity for an Easter pool party while many of our guests will also enjoy an Easter feast at any of our restaurants, but instead of ham or quiche, tacos, enchiladas, and burritos will be on the menu!

Every adventure will be made more special and definitely more comfortable simply because you chose FMI Rentals in Rocky Point for your first Easter escape, and we think this new holiday tradition will suit your family just fine. Reserve your favorite Mexico haven today!

Even as it seems that the winter holidays have just ended, it is already time to start planning your upcoming Spring Break getaway! The first three months of the new year are usually pretty much a letdown, with gray skies, cold temps, and nothing but work to relieve the monotony, so if you are lucky enough to enjoy a Spring Break vacation, we urge you to take advantage of it, even if you aren’t a college student celebrating his or her freedom. Even families like to get away for a few carefree days at the end of the winter season, and although Rocky Point is known to be a college Spring Break destination spot, it also manages to be a family escape that will be enjoyed by travelers of all ages—especially when you choose FMI Rentals for your soft space to land after a long day of south of the border adventures. This guide to the unicorn Spring Break in Rocky Point, one in which everyone will find joy, happiness, and excitement, will give you even more reasons to be counting day to your days of freedom!

Daytime Adventures for the Family

As the sun shines down on your pale winter skin, you may find it a little too cold to go swimming. The water temps are generally in the high 50s, but that still shouldn’t stop you from planning at least one beach day during your stay! The kids can build sandcastles at shore’s edge, (Don’t be surprised if they still manage to get soaked, in spite of the chill; it’s a kid’s thing!) parents can spend some of their vacation minutes walking along the beach, holding hands and talking about their plans for the future, and all of you can enjoy a picnic lunch on the square of sand you have staked out as your own. If the water isn’t too cold for you, the banana boats are always a fun idea, or you could rent a boat and skim the surface of the sea, stopping to fish off the side or simply to revel in the peace and tranquility the Sea of Cortez brings to all visitors. The feel of the boat gently bobbing in the waters, the sounds of waves lightly slapping against its sides, and the sight of the sun glistening against the surf will all combine to make sure these moments are never forgotten.

When hunger pangs begin to indicate dinnertime is nigh, families with picky eaters may worry that their kiddos won’t appreciate the foreign foods, but a visit to Al Capone’s Seafood and Pizzeria will ensure that there will be no children going to bed hungry! Offering fresh and delicious seafood, and the very recognizable and delicious pizzas, there is destined to be dishes that will appeal to all members of your traveling party.

Nighttime Adventures for Adults Only

Spring Break isn’t just for families with children, of course, it’s for travelers from all demographics of life. Retirees may seek the warm sun and the inexpensive costs of a tropical escape to the sea, and single, childless, and adventure seeking adults may want to relive the Spring Break of their college days, and the nighttime is when Rocky Point shines! Offering a variety of bars and nightclubs that open early and stay open into the wee hours of the morning, you can party like a 21 year old as long as your body lets you! Wrecked at the Reef is the most well known of Rocky Point bars, opening early, closing late, and providing live music, delicious food, and views of the beach that will linger in your heart for years to come. Elixir Bar, only open on weekends from 8 PM until 3 AM, is often the site for the best parties on the beach, as is the Ice House Bar & Nightclub, a favorite for Spring Breakers of all ages!

A Soft Space to Land This Spring Break in Rocky Point

No matter if you are traveling with your kids, your friends, or your favorite human, having a soft space to land at the end of a long day of adventures is vital to the success of your Spring Break getaway, and as always, FMI Rentals provides! Choose a home or condo on the beach and keep the serenity and tranquility of the Sea of Cortez at close hand. Spend your evenings playing games, enjoying impromptu picnics on rooftop decks, or barbecue pool parties in the privacy of a fenced-in yard. Sleep deep and long in comfortable beds, make your kids favorite meals in fully equipped kitchens, and raise a toast to another stunning sunset from your perch on the porch of any of our homes; your Rocky Point Spring Break getaway is destined to make memories you will cherish forever! Reserve your favorite today!

Christmas is one of the most popular holidays in the world, and yet it isn’t always the most pleasant time of the year. The temperatures are chilling, the traffic is frightening, and honestly, you work, spend, and work some more, only to have the fun parts over in minutes, leaving you with more work to do! Add in snarky Uncle Gary who sees every get together as an opportunity to spout off his politics, grumpy Aunt Aimee who isn’t happy unless she has something to complain about, and although we have already discussed the temps, slushy streets, cold weather, and gray skies, and you have a recipe for a holiday that doesn’t shine as bright as you would like it to. So, maybe this is the year you will follow your intuition, step outside the box, and revel in a holiday filled with sunny skies, laid-back vibes, and the most delicious (and authentic!) Mexican food in the world! We are, of course, talking about a vacation spent in the most beautiful fishing village in the world, Rocky Point, Mexico, and a stay in one of our FMI Rentals holiday hideaways. This guide to the fun and relaxation you can enjoy this Christmas in Rocky Point may just change the way your holidays look for years to come!

Festive and Bright

Relaxing during the holidays is something we have all gotten away from, and FMI Rentals feel that a Christmas in Rocky Point is the best way to get back to what we all need in our lives! A little rest, a little relaxation, and a whole lot of comfort can add up to make this holiday one you will never forget. Just like at home, the shops, restaurants, and homes in our tranquil fishing village will be decorated for the beautiful season, offering colorful lights and a festive cheer that is one reason that Christmas is one of the world’s most popular holidays. But unlike at home, you can sleep in as late as your children let you, (We would say as late as you want, but it is Christmas, you have children, and there are gifts to be opened!) spend less on gifts, and end every night of your stay with a walk along moonlit beaches. Swimming will probably not be an option, as cold nights and nicely chilled days cause the water temperatures to drop, but as you walk along the sandy beaches, the roar of the waves and the tranquility that accompanies every large body of water will help these nights become the gold standard as to what you will expect from Christmas from here on out!

Joyous and Cheerful Christmas in Rocky Point

Life at the beach has its own ebb and flow, and as you spend your days shopping at Rocky Point’s version of Rodeo Drive, Cholla Mall, (the deals never fail to surprise and please!) enjoying elegant and tasty meals at the Blue Marlin, and just feeling the stresses of real life melt away, you may find yourself humming your favorite Christmas carols! You can’t help but be joyous when sipping margaritas at sunset, and the cheer you will feel from not having to clean for days before the arrival of the extended family will take a long time to dissipate! Wake up to the sun streaming in generously sized winters, gather around the fire pits on cold nights, and re-discover how funny your oldest son is and how beautiful your littlest princess has become seemingly overnight! Christmas holidays with friends are destined to be raucous affairs, with friends wandering in and out during the days, doing their own thing, then coming together each night to play games, watch television, or to reminisce about the old days in between sips of margaritas and gulps of beer! There are no rules to a Christmas in Rocky Point, aside from one: EVERYONE must have the time of their lives, something that is quite easy to do!

At Home with FMI Rentals

Everyone’s idea of the perfect Christmas is different, but one thing that stands true during a Rocky Point holiday is just how nicely our FMI Rentals homes make every Christmas dream come true! High-speed internet in many of our properties allow guests to stream their favorite holiday stations and watch their favorite Christmas movies, either on smart TVs or on the laptops they carried from home. Spacious kitchens add a sense of home and help save money as you bake cookies and prepare the Christmas feast; turkey is always an option even this far from home as Sam’s Club has its own store in town! Comfortable beds and serene bedrooms make sleep come easily and ensure that dreams will be happy ones and on the big day itself, gathering with your family or friends in comfortable living rooms will be the moments you remember most. Reserve your favorite FMI Rentals holiday hideaway today!
