We were very excited and surprised at the beauty of this location in Mexico. An added bonus was the Sonoran Sun resort. We stayed in Unit E211 which is rented through Seaside Resorts. Most impressive was the added touches the owner provided such as coffee, tea, frozen pops, CDs and DVDs as well as toiletries. There is also a full... More

We just got back from a wonderful stay at the Sonoran Sun Resort in Puerto Penasco(Rocky Point), Mexico. We stayed in a three bedroom suite with a beautiful ocean view. The suite included a large wrap around balcony which was ideal for meals and entertaining. The suite had all the modern appliances and was nicely decorated. The master bedroom was... More

The Sun gets high marks for cleanliness and safety. It's on Sandy Beach, not in downtown Rocky Point, which is several miles away. The plus on that is the feeling of safety you have during your stay. The minus is that you are a $20 cab ride away from the shopping and the few RP restaurants worth your attention. There... More

We went to Mexico for the first time with some friends and we would def like to come back. Our kids played on the beach where they found seashells and crabs... More

The Staff is indifferent. Checking in , the receptionist was more interested in her personal phone call than us. The units are decorated by the owners, obviously there are no standards. We were fortunate that we were able switch the Unit we rented through an Agent to another owner's Unit , who was checking out. That Unit was acceptable, but... More

Another nice time at the Sonoran Sun resort - clean, well maintained and secure. The Sonoran properties are generally closer to the water and have better veiws than the other places in Rocky Point. We have been traveling to this area for more than 20 years and we like the Sun about the best of any place we have stayed... More

We stayed in a wonderful 2 bdrm - 2 bath unit. Private owners but rented thru Seasidemexico.com. The unit was spacious and beautifully decorated. We were there in late Feb and it's really before the season starts so the restaurant was closed (except weekends) which was a bit of a disappointment but the pool bar was open for lunch and... More

I thought the hotel was fine. The rooms are great, spacious, nicely decorated. I don't think it was the hotel I didn't like. I just didn't like the location. Maybe it was just that I was hoping for a little more greenery coming from Phoenix.... I just didn't have a good feel there. And from the time we entered the... More

This was our first trip to Puerto Peñasco and it was a great one. The condos at Sonoran Sun are beautiful with great view to the ocean we stayed in SE805. The only thing we did not like was the restaurant, but you can alway go buy your groceries and make a good meal at you condo. We are going... More
