At Home in Esmeralda Resort

The resort in which #803 is located is known for its luxuries and this special escape carries on the tradition! Traditional Saltillo tiles lead the way to rooms filled with comfort and style, starting with the living room. Offering an impressive arched entryway, the furnishings are plush, comfortable, and topped with high-end materials, including a rich leather on the chairs that face a wall of windows and the sea beyond. Nautical touches can be found throughout the home, serving as a reminder that you are at the beach in case you may have somehow forgotten. A blown-up photograph of ropes wrapped around dock cleats hangs over the sofa and bowls of ropes, jars of starfish, and an assortment of shells complete the sea-themed accessories in this welcoming room. The dining room, centered between the living area and the kitchen offers a dramatic brick coffered ceiling perched over the inviting dining room set with a beautiful chandelier providing light for the activities that will take place at the table. The gourmet kitchen is designed to entice amateur chefs, offering a second brick coffered ceiling, a curved granite breakfast bar with extra seating, and stainless steel appliances that are modern and convenient. Before we leave the public areas, let’s head out to the balcony for a moment of peace and tranquility. Glass rails ensure safety without blocking the views that give this wonderful unit its magic. The sea stretches out before you as you sit on lounge chairs listening to the sounds of waves crashing on the beach below and feeling the ocean breezes kiss your cheeks. Out here the troubles of the world disappear leaving behind quiet peace and serene joy as you relax, drink margaritas, and wish that you never had to return home!

The Luxury of Sleep

Vacations in Mexico are known for their excitement, their fun, and being an overall exotic experience you will never forget, but they are not often known for providing the best sleeping situations. #803, however, is destined to change your outlook on the ultimate luxury in life, that of a good night’s sleep! The master suite offers a substantial and comfortable king bed over which hangs a portrait of waves breaking on a sandy beach, but if you want to see that in person, simply head out to the private balcony of this room and experience the magic for real. An ensuite bath adds more luxury to your getaway, providing a jacuzzi tub, separate shower, and a spacious double vanity topped with granite and offering plenty of space to stash your toiletries. Guest bedroom number two features another king bed, this one with a Spanish-style headboard adding interest to the space, a flat-screen television, and a second private entrance to the patio. The second bath provides a walk-in shower and single vanity. The third and final bedroom of our Esmeralda Resort escape is a light and airy space, featuring a queen bed with a whimsical iron headboard, mirrored closet, and an arched wood door that looks as if it would lead guests to an enchanted garden. These tranquil spaces are designed to ensure that sleep is deep and dreams are happy ones and when you lie in the quiet at night, perhaps with the sliding glass doors open to let in the scents and sounds of the sea, you may pinch yourself, wondering if this feeling of peace and serenity is true. And we at FMI Rentals are here to tell you that not only is it real, but the sensation will linger in your soul long after you return to real life in your American hometown.

That New Rocky Point Condo Smell

The beauty of Linda Vista is enhanced by that new condo smell, as this new build has yet to be “broken in.” Located just steps away from the fun, tranquility, and excitement of Sandy Beach, this cheerful condo offers a peace of its own that will make it the perfect place to come home to at the end of every day’s adventures. The open concept floor plan harbors no secrets and reflects a colorful beauty that is reminiscent of the ancient culture of our people, starting with the living room and its walls that are painted the color of the sea on a sunny day. Black leather sofas face the brightest blue wall against which a state of the art television is perched on its own cabinet. This room is popular for napping, conversing, and watching local shows in an effort to practice your Spanish. The kitchen is a bright and modern space containing dark cabinets that provide a beautiful contrast to the blue on the walls, granite countertops, and brand new stainless steel appliances. A breakfast bar provides overflow seating for 3 but it’s the space age lighting in the slanted ceiling that will make the biggest impression, appearing as if a UFO is in the process of landing on the kitchen floor!

The second bedroom is a large one, offering 2 double beds and a large dresser in a cheerful space painted multiple shades of blue. The second bath, the public bath, offers a scaled down version of the double vanity in the form of a single vanity, is a spa-like space made even more special by its newness.

The beach is located just steps away from the Linda Vista community and although it isn’t technically a community amenity, its proximity promises to be your favorite part of your vacation. Spend your days with your toes buried in the sand, relaxing with your favorite music and a good book, or frolic in the surf, reveling in the feel of salt water against your rapidly tanning skin.

Colorful Charm

Puesta del Sol is not your standard cottage by the sea. Even as it offers the most important parts of the equation—the cottage and the sea—its typical Latin inspired design may change the way you look at beach décor forever! Follow the path made by cool tiles and discover a world in which color is the king and in which no color has been left behind. The kitchen offers dark wood cabinets, updated appliances, a compact center island, and a sunny backsplash of white and yellow tiles, providing a cheerful place to throw together sandwiches for a day at the beach or to whip up a batch of frothy margaritas. Nearby, a painted wood dining tables brings color back into the room in the “racing stripes” and red placemats and continues with the sunny thing with a carved impression on the captain’s chairs at either end of the table.

The sun plays a part of the décor in many places throughout the cottage, serving as a happy reminder of the appeal of Rocky Point! The living area features our first taste of the nautical life with a dramatic three-dimensional art piece hanging over comfy leather sofas, and as might be expected, the sun plays a part in this room as well, carved into the large center coffee table and shining in through floor to ceiling windows that look out over the patio and beyond to the gorgeous waters of the sea. A colorfully tiled beehive fireplace provides heat on cooler days and nights and traditional Equipale chairs provide a cheerful reminder that you are not in the United States anymore. Each of the three bedrooms of Puesta del Sol offer their own cheerful vibes, filled with color, comfort, and the sun—yes, even in the bedrooms the sun makes its presence known! A teal bureau with a mural of sunflowers painted on its front, a happy mural of a path leading out to a colorful garden on a sunny day, and in the final bedroom, a wall of dark wood doors could dim the space if not for the relief of a sun carved into the wall and being used as a headboard for the bed, on which you will sleep the sleep of an innocent child: deep and uninterrupted! Each of the bathrooms provide their own style as well, clad in traditional colorful Mexican tiles, creating spaces that are as cheerful and as inviting as the rest of our unique Puesta del Sol sanctuary.

The Reason You Are Here

Yes, this house is beautiful and comfortable and offers everything you need for a successful vacation experience, but step outside those sliding glass doors in the living room and re-discover the reason you are here. A covered patio, complete with ceiling fan and Saltillo tiles awaits you, offering comfortable places to sit, sip, and enjoy the serene beauty of the Sea of Cortez. Your backyard is the beach in this cozy cottage, and your playground is the sea; kick off your flipflops and run through the sand, finding your new happy place at the place where the sand meets the sea! The sounds of the waves crashing on the shore will be the theme song of your life for the duration of your stay, and as you walk along shores edge morning, noon, and night, practice your breast stroke in the quiet and warm waters, or simply sit on the beach arms wrapped around your knees watching the world go by, you will know that choosing Puesta del Sol was not just the best decision you could have made, but the ONLY decision!

Will They, or Won’t They?

The big question for 2021 is will there be fireworks? In the past, local resorts, night spots, and of course, tourists in town for the holidays often set off fireworks displays for the enjoyment of everyone in town, but the pandemic changed a lot of things and whether or not there will be “official” fireworks shows is still up in the air. We can say, however, that chances are, if you spend any time near the beaches after nightfall there will be more than a few pops of color lighting up the night sky! Bring a blanket, some beverages, and your fave tunes and if the fireworks don’t show up, will you really mind all that much? The party starts and ends with you and your fellow travelers and the joy you feel right here, right now, will outweigh any disappointment!

The Party Is Always Here This 4th of July in Rocky Point!

Although Rocky Point is also a family town, it is also known as a prime party spot, and what better way to celebrate the long weekend? 4th of July falls on a Sunday this year, which means many of our guests will be getting a bonus long weekend, and we aren’t complaining one bit! Leave the kids with Grandma, put on your coolest clothes, (and when we say cool, we are talking temperature wise; it gets hot in Rocky Point in July, and we want you to stay comfortable!) and head out to any of the hot spots you will read about here. Stop in JJ’s Cantina, a local tradition, and discover why it has been the place to party at as you listen to Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers and sip on tequila long after the sun has set! Wrecked at the Reef offers big screen televisions, live music, and a dance floor that is always full, while Banditos is where you can actually check out the retired traveling bus of Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers (This all-American band has made Rocky Point its second home!) and sip on Mexican moonshine until you can actually hear colors and see smells. If there are fireworks this year, you will be able to see them from atop your perch at the Sky Bar (be sure to sample the food at the Fish Restaurant below!), and if trendy matters, you have to make your way to Elixir! Offering bottle service, light shows, and some of the sexiest people in Mexico, this spot always has something special going on during holiday weekends, so be sure to check out their web page as it gets closer to the 4th of July weekend!

All the Comforts of Home

Of course, the party scene doesn’t appeal to all, and if you are traveling with family, you may just want to enjoy all the comforts found in your FMI Rentals holiday sanctuary! Choose a beachfront property and spend your days playing under the Mexican sun, building sandcastles with the younger travelers and riding the banana boats in the surf with the teens and tweens of your life. Grill the catch of the day on provided barbecues, jam to your favorite tunes, and if you choose a property with a rooftop patio, maybe, just maybe, you can catch the fireworks displays that may be taking place all over town! Whip up a special holiday beverage—4th of July Spiked Bomb Pops made with coconut rum, blue curacao, and regular rum makes us really happy, but an ice-cold beer could be all you need for your own happiness. The comforts of our home away from home will make you glad you FMI Rentals for your Rocky Point accommodations and the laid-back lifestyle found down here will be exactly what you need to escape from the stresses found in real life. Reserve your stay today!

See the Beach from a Different Angle

You have seen it in the movies and wondered about it in your daydreams, and now is the time to make it a realty as you take a horseback tour of the beach at sunset! El Establo Ranch offers tours throughout the day, but if you really want to do something extraordinary, the sunset tours are unforgettable. Watching the sun explode in the sky with a kaleidoscope of colors before melting into the sea while you and your gentle steed are plodding along the sand may not change your life, but it will change the way you remember your time in paradise forever.

Rocky Point Tours For the Birds

A tour of Bird Island is another popular activity for visitors from the north, and Eco Fun Adventures takes you above and below the waters to ensure that you get to know this uninhabited island very well. Protected from mankind’s tendency to destroy what we love most, Bird Island—whose proper name is Isla San Jorge—is home to a variety of wildlife, not just the birds for which it is nicknamed. Seals and sea lions have developed quite a population here, and although we are not permitted to land on the island itself, the conditions for snorkeling are absolutely perfect, and Eco Fun Adventures includes snorkeling gear as part of the trip!

Flying High

Sometimes the best way to see the beauty of the land is from above, and when you sign up for a zip line adventure with Rocky Point Zip Lines, you will understand what we are saying! While not exactly a tour, as you fly for over 2000 feet over sea and sand, a sense of peace will coexist with the exhilaration you feel exploring the landscape while attached to a thin cable. Watch how desert landscape turns lush and green before fading into a watery seascape as the wind whips through your hair and the trees blur before your eyes. This tour over Rocky Point guided by a zipline will be more fun than you can even imagine!

Sips to Savor

One of our favorite tours only takes you to one place, the Tequila Factory, located right here in Rocky Point! Tequila may not be the official drink of Mexico—as a matter of fact we are not even sure if Mexico HAS an official drink—but this is one drink of which we can never get enough. Take a tour of the factory, sipping your way through the different flavors of this 100% agave beverage, and fall in love. Their Rocky Point Sunset is one of the most popular drinks on the Sea of Cortez, and it will just take one sip for you to learn why!

To the Moon!

Well, not exactly the moon, but when you visit Rocky Point, a tour of El Pinacate Biosphere Reserve is as close as you might ever get! Made up of over 400 cinder cones, the area is dormant now; the last eruption took place over three or four million years ago, so consider yourself safe as you participate in a self-guided tour of the reserve. Maps and pamphlets are available from the rangers that work in the park, but you cannot get water here, so be sure to bring your own. Feel like you need more interesting information about El Pinacate Biosphere Reserve so as to encourage you to explore it during your stay? From 1965 until 1970, the Reserve was used as training grounds for astronauts preparing to walk on the moon, (including those from the 1970 Apollo 14 mission) as the landscape was as close to the moonscape as could be found here on Earth. This desert area can get pretty warm and the sun can burn unsuspecting visitors to a crisp, so in addition to bringing water, be sure to bring and use your sunscreen!

Back to Earth with FMI Rentals

When you finish with your daytime adventures in Rocky Point, coming back to earth in the comfort of our FMI vacation escapes will be the highlight of your getaway. Reserve yours today!

Daytime Adventures Close to Home

Whether you are of the school who believes in unpacking and putting everything in its place upon your arrival or you prefer just to toss yours where there’s space and live out of its content during your stay, once the suitcase situation is figured out, it is time to play! Take the first day of your summer escape to get to know the neighborhood that surrounds your property, learning where you can buy your beverages, stock up on foodstuffs, or pick up the kitschy souvenirs that are a tradition in every vacation. You can also slip into your swimsuit and flip flops and run as fast as you can to the sandy playground that backs up to your beachside property on one end and the Sea of Cortez on the other. There are no wrong answers to how you should start this getaway, just lots and lots of exciting options!

The most popular first day activity, however, is always a day at the beach. Mark your territory with a colorful umbrella and beach blanket, and the rest of the day is yours! Build sandcastles at water’s edge with your toddler, ride the banana boats with your best friend, or choose to spend these moments walking along the shore photographing all the beauty that you do not want to forget! Early morning horseback rides are something you may have dreamed about, and El Establo Ranch is known for its magnificent steeds! Stop by and make the first of many of your dreams come true and discover what we have known for years: anything is possible in Rocky Point!

Out and About With Activities in Rocky Point

You have traveled a long way for this summer escape, and now it is time to get out there and explore. Rent a kayak and experience the magnificence of a Rocky Point sunset from the waters, fly through the sky with at Rocky Point Zip Lines, or simply take the day to explore the shops. Silver and turquoise are popular here, so bringing home a sample is practically a requirement; shiny gifts can be easily purchased from Gaby’s Silver Jewelry store! Rocky Point has its own version of Rodeo Drive, and the Cholla Mall offers a huge selection of wares you will not want to live without at prices so low, you might have to start worrying about the weight limit on the suitcase you are carrying home! That is ok, though, you can always pick up another piece of luggage to hold all the treasures you find during your visit.

When a grumbling stomach warns you it is time to stop playing and start getting serious about filling it, a fine dining experience can be had at Mare Blu Ristorante or a casual meal can be devoured at Colin’s Cantina. Open every day except Wednesday and serving breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays, this popular spot promises a taste-full adventure at every meal, and their baked goods are beyond amazing!

Explore the Amenities of Your FMI Rentals Summer Sanctuary

Because our properties are designed to be an integral part of your vacation experience, you may feel as if you do not have to leave to have a good time, and you would be right! Practice cannonballs in the community pool if you are staying in one of our condos or lay out and perfect your tan in the private one located in the backyard of your luxury escape. Sit at water’s edge with fishing pole in hand in the morning and grill your catch of the day on the barbecue on your deck as the sun sets over the sea. Sleep late every day and stay up till the sun is beginning to peak over the horizon each night and revisit the lazy days of your childhood by spending the hours in between reading, napping, and snacking on the goodies you made earlier in the trip in our fully equipped kitchens.

No matter how you fill the days with activities in Rocky Point, your nights will be comfortable, luxurious, and relaxing when you choose FMI Rentals for your summer sanctuary. Reserve yours today!

Banana Boats

If you’ve ever been tubing or water skiing, you’ll love a ride on a banana boat. The inflatable craft are pulled by speed boats. Once you’ve secured your life jacket and boarded the craft, take off from the shore and head out – but not too far – into the sea. Drivers will go as fast or as slow as the six to eight riders want to go.

Whale Watching

Plan your winter break between January and March and prepare for some whale spotting. The winter months are the time of year when whales from the Bering Sea migrate to the warmer waters of the Sea of Cortez. You’ll see adults as well as their newborn calves out for a swim. There are several boat charters that offer whale watching excursions.

SCUBA Diving and Snorkeling

The beautiful waters and undersea world of reefs and more make Rocky Point a great place to get up close and personal with fish and other sea creatures. There are plenty of companies to take you out for an excursion and include all the equipment you’ll need to make undersea memories to last a lifetime. If you’d rather strike out on your own, ask about renting gear.

Fishing

If you’d rather try to catch fish than swim with them, Rocky Point has you covered. There are plenty of fishing charters that will take you deep sea fishing or to the shores of San Jorge Island, Bird Island, or other destinations. Prepare to hook sierra mackerel, trigger fish, corvina, grouper, spotted sea bass, and many others to enjoy for you next meal. Most companies provide all you need – bait, tackle, rod and reel, and whatever else is necessary to turn a ‘fishing’ trip into a ‘catching’ trip.

Golfing

From the Jack Nicklaus designed Vidanta Puerto Peñasco course, to any of the town’s other fabulously maintained links, the golfer of the group will want to make sure to pack their clubs. If you didn’t bring your clubs and still want to play, ask about gear rental.

Beach Massage

If you’re having trouble deciding between beach time and spa time, the beach resorts of Rocky Point may have an answer. Many offer massages on the beach. Let your masseuse’s hands relax away your stress and worry while the crash of the waves of the Sea of Cortez rock you into a lullaby to complete your relaxation.

Spa Day

If you’d rather experience an entire day of relaxation, not just a short time on the beach, choose one of the many amazing spas in the area for a day of relaxation. Indulge in a menu of services like mani/pedis, facials, and several different types of massages. Revitalize your mind and spirit along with your body as you treat yourself to a body wrap or polish. Make sure to check out all of your chosen destination’s offerings to tailor a package of relaxation that is just right for you.

Seasonal Celebration

Even with no snow on the ground, the homes and businesses of Rocky Point light up with holiday cheer. Whether the décor is as simple as a wreath on the door and a candle in the window, or the halls are completely decked, Rocky Point sparkles and shines throughout the holiday season. You might see sights like life size clay replicas of the Nacimiento (Nativity) in yards or public spaces. See the lilies, evergreens, luminaries and more that prepare homes for las Posadas (Inn, or Lodging). Follow a processional led by children and young people to church on Christmas Eve.

January Jam!

If you happen to schedule your Rocky Point getaway during the month of January, make sure to include the annual January Jam Winter Music Festival.
