I once stubbed the f*ck out of my toe on the concrete Mexican box spring at the Viña del Mar. That's the "Vine of the Sea" (the seaweed). Otherwise was Rocky Point OK. But I think that was in the 90s.
You might wanna wait for other recommendations.

Playa Bonita.
The old original on the beach to the best of my knowledge. Great patio and many good times. If you have a camper, stay at The Reef, down the beach on the other end. |

No more camping on the beach at The Reef.. and to that note, "The Reef" as we know it is no longer there. The RV park on the one side is still available. "The Reef" is now "Wrecked At The Reef" and is at the entry way for the new mile+ pier where they expect cruise liners to dock. I would recommend looking at AirBnB to see if there are houses or condos available, that is usually the way to go. We used to tow the RV's down all the time, but it is a bit of a hassle for a few days. For Thanksgiving this year we booked a house on the beach. |

Now it's more of a bolder infested fishing dock. |

My wife wants us to vacation in Rocky Point over Thanksgiving weekend. We've never been there before, and would like hotel recommendations from those of you that have been there. I have nothing constructive to say other than....Bandwagon. It's like The Love Boat boat for Phoenix socialites and keeping up with the Jones's. With that said, whatever place has the Grand Myan I hear is the place to hashtag all your Instagram vacation pics and Facebook from... |

I will be staying at the Grand Mayan from Nov 12 to Nov 19th. I will be back in PHX on 11/14 but ill be down there that whole week if anyone wants to drop by.
On the 15th, I am looking to rent a Fishing boat for the day. It is $510 and there are two of us so far. If you want to spend a day catching big edible sea monsters, come on down. Also, Rocky Point is probably one of the safer places in Mexico. They dont have the drug corridors going through there. They had one murder there 5 years ago. And it was a local. The place is a tourist trap and they dont want to lose those tourists. |

Thanks for all the replies.
I found out the day after I posted that I was being laid off, so any trips are on hold for who knows how long.

We have had our own place on the beach at La Cholla for 30 years. We feel very safe there. Safer than in either Tucson of Phoenix. We suggest the Pa Paloma hotel. They have a nice restaurant and beach. However our two favorite restaurants are the Lighthouse and Maria Bonita at the edge of the wharf. The lighthouse has a hard road to find but is worth it. Next door to it is the Captains Table which is better for parties. Take a bunch of dollar bills to give to the red cross folks. Travel durint the day. At night just stay on the main streets. Actually I have gone on to side roads many times in Penesco and have never been accosted in any way. Get insurance in Ajo at the big service station if you come from Phoenix and at Lukeville at the gas station if you come from Tucson. DO not travel in Mexico without insurance!!!!!!!

San Carlos/ Guaymas is nicer, but doesn't have the party scene that some want. At least that's my opinion.

Exactly, since all the Gang Hype there have been no Gringos hurt in RP except a couple who rolled their dune buggies on the sand hills. |
