    Weird internet "issue"

    So we finally got our new house in Playa Encanto. I signed up for satellite internet. The previous owners had a microwave link. Yesterday two guys show up, ask for me by name and say they are here to install my internet. They play with the microwave system a bit and I got internet. Today I find...

    Fmm Question

    We are closing on our house this Thursday. One of the requirements is that we stop at the border and get an FMM that shows we are in Mexico for business reasons. I read I could get the tourist card as well as pay for it on line. I was able to fill out the form and print it out, but couldn't find...

    Closing Costs

    Would anyone who has recently purchased a house/condo in Rocky Point be willing to share what their total closings costs were. I have gotten estimates (not official ones) of anywhere between $10,000 and $20,000 and was just wondering what to plan on within that range if possible. Thanks so much!

    Home Builder

    We are looking hard at moving to Rocky Point. We have been coming down since 1980 (yes, for real!). We don't have specific plans and are looking at a number of possible options in terms of location (we are leaning toward Playa Encanto, but are open) and whether to buy or build. I have read...

    Playa Encanto Abandon House

    I know this is a long shot, but here goes. We were driving through Playa Encanto a couple weeks ago and came on a tan house that was right on the beach that looks like it was abandon a number of years ago. It was in bad shape but near other houses that have been occupied and kept up. We ran...

    Carvin Jones

    Like most people with an affinity to Rocky Point we love seeing Roger Clyne when he is in RP (or anywhere else for that matter. We had a great time visiting with him at a tequila tasting awhile back). However, if you are into fantastic guitar players and are going to be in RP for New Years we...

    CAmping?

    We have been going down to RP since the early 80's and remember the "good ol' days" of camping on Sandy Beach. Our version of "camping" has changed, now it means sitting on the balcony of a condo looking at the ocean...anyway.. I have a co-worker who asked if there was a place that they could...

    Semana Santa = CRAZY

    We have been going to RP since 1980 fairly regularly (4 to 5 times a year). Our extended family owns a small house in Cholla Bay but now we usually stay on Sandy Beach. Somehow in all this time we have never been to RP during Semana Santa and after this past weekend I know why. I have never seen...

    Well, our free ride is over. For the past few years we have been able to stay at our friends condo at Las Palomas for virtually free...but, they just sold it. Now we have to go back to renting something. Prior to our freebe we stayed at a lot of different places (family "cabin" at...

    Interesting Crossing

    It was kind of interesting when we crossed the border yesterday. Let me preface this by saying that a few months ago I left some bacon in our cooler (we had brout the bacon with us down there) and got a long winded lecture about it by the guy who found it. That being said, yesterday as I drove...

    Army in RP

    We have been in Rocky Point for the week and noticed a really large number of soldier and also military boats every day. One day they were going door-to-door near the Mirador, another day we saw them at a storage place having someone open every storage unit. I asked around to some of our local...

    Legal

    Stuart- If this thread is out of line just delete it... Is pot legal in Mexico? If so what are the "rules" as far as possession, purchase etc. I know it's always been "available" but to me has never been worth risking it.

Anyway, It is...
