    Little houses in Cholla Bay

    Question... I know there a lot of variables here, but assuming I had a small lot in Cholla Bay, what would it cost me to have a reliable local builder do a ~ 1,200 sq ft 3br/2ba (small bedrooms) house w/ A/C, Mexican finishes (tile floors, counter tops)?

    Homeport moving along!

    Yep I said this when the jetty started (how long has it been now?) that they just need to start thinking about how to pivot from the dumb cruise ship idea. Vendors could line the beginning of it, maybe fishing at the end, a bar in between? The next "phase" should be how to make the thing a...

    Burglars Active in the Mirador

    Has anyone here used NextDoor? It's basically a popular app/website where people talk about happenings in their specific neighborhood. I see this website as very similar. In my neighborhood on NextDoor, all kinds of things are discussed. Anything from new restaurants opening, lost pets, to...

    Burglars Active in the Mirador

    Indeed, the site is slow right now. Most likely because it's the worst time of year in RP and nobody is visiting, therefore no trip reports. I don't want anyone to leave the site, all perspectives are appreciated. Especially local residents.

    Bachelor party

    Yeah tough time of year for a bachelor party... Agree with happygirl on everything except Guau Guau's. We were down a few months ago (for a bachelor party) and Guau Guau's had sadly gone downhill. We wondered over to Mamacita's a few blocks down and found it much better. Hopefully it's just a...

    Homeport moving along!

    So basically they're saying, "We have no idea if/when this will get done". Yikes... I knew we'd never actually see successful cruise operations out of RP, but figured they might at least get a terminal built.

    Homeport moving along!

    Sorry, but that is hideous. Have they started building the terminal at all?

    Pithaya

    I would be on the road at 1:20, and I'm sure thousands more were too this past weekend for Circus Mexicus.

    The new gang "The Zubias" coming into Rocky Point....

    This songone is my favorite, here's them playing it at JJ's These came up with Roger Clyne in the 90's Tempe music scene. Was really cool that Roger brought them back to Circus Mexicus a few years back when they did the Refreshments reunion. Glad they're back again this year.

    Road into RP

    Even without road construction, you should take this way to Sandy Beach. Only reason not to would be if you needed to shop first as the only store on this route is Oxxo as you approach Sandy Beach. It will cut around 10 minutes off of your drive.

    Continued Harassment by the Police Department

    Reality is most people don't read this forum. Take your average family coming down to RP, kids in the back of the car. Police pull you over demanding money, kids are scared, etc... Makes it easy to say now we play stupid, demand a judge, show them a recording... This crap just needs to stop if...

    Medical Services in RP

    Thanks for the in depth reply Terry, maybe we can get this pinned at top of this thread. Reading that makes me realize how dumb I am for going down so much and not being prepared. I'm going to start printing this along with car insurance for my trips.

    Narco Manta on Benito Juarez in Penasco

    Ban words? I don't follow? I'm definitely happy that tourism is at an all time high. In fact I just brought down a large group, most of whom hadn't been in a long time. They asked about going to Manny's, so that tells you how long. Trust me I'm a huge booster and am the first to roll my eyes...

    Narco Manta on Benito Juarez in Penasco

    I was really surprised that tourism has flourished since the Bella Sirena incident. I wonder if it could survive if those idiots hung a few mutilated bodies on that overpass?
