Spring in Las Conchas

By Scott Spackeen

As the weather glides from slightly chilly to pleasantly warm, there is nothing better than spending time on the Sea of Cortez in Puerto Peñasco, Sonora (Rocky Point). I can say this with confidence, conviction, and honesty as my wife and I have owned a home in the Las Conchas neighborhood in Rocky point since 1996.

We have travelled extensively on numerous trips in the Baja and other parts of Mexico. We love all of Mexico, but always return to Puerto Peñasco knowing that we indeed are invested in the very best spot in this beautiful country. It offers easy driving access near the U.S. border and a very safe, hard working, and friendly town.

Okay, so then there’s the question of where is the best spot to own in Rocky Point and, once again, I think I can narrow it down. Las Conchas is something special, an exclusive gated community with a rich tradition of American and Canadian residents. The Las Conchas Peninsula is simply the best spot to own and enjoy beachfront real estate. The Tessoro Condominium development is particularly “choice” due to its status as the only beachfront resort in Las Conchas. It offers the privacy of a true family vacation away from the fray on a pristine beach, but is only 10 minutes to town and all the restaurants, shops, and activities that are so quaint and part of the local experience.

Here’s the real attraction for me, though: Tessoro owners are a special, self-selected group. Here you will meet interesting and kind-hearted people with the most amazing life stories and diverse backgrounds. All are so friendly, jovial and inquisitive, with wonderful families. When these amazing Tessoro owners “group up” around the pool or by the seaside hot tub and begin to share life stories, I can see the bonds forming and a community coming together. That is perhaps the most enticing thing about purchasing a beachfront residence at Tessoro. It’s all about the people who love Puerto Peñasco and choose to escape the wall of condos and seek something more, something special.

I know what I am talking about. I myself have enjoyed this experience of living in Las Conchas for 15 years!!!
