Stay Cool by the Sea in June at Tessoro

Arizonans Heading to Puerto Peñasco for Perfect Weather

Down on the Las Conchas Peninsula, we have been enjoying days in the mid-80s and nights in the high 60s. The sea breeze is light and comfortable. It is a pleasure to sit outside by the pool or soak in the perfect ocean water. Tessoro’s many owners and guests have been celebrating one of the best springs ever in Puerto Peñasco. For anyone stuck in the heat of Phoenix or Tucson, there is only one question . . . Why aren’t you here?

Phoenix has seen 4 consecutive days of over 100 degrees. It is 105 degrees right now in Tucson. It is 15-20 degrees cooler on the beach in Rocky Point. Read more

Tessoro Owner’s, CEDO & NaturArte Celebrate Community Seafood Market

Event Supports the Indigenous Cooperatives of Las Conchas’

The Las Conchas Peninsula was alive with the sights and smells of fresh-cooked fish, ceviche and oysters on Saturday, April 10. In a show of support for Las Conchas’ first residents and the sustainability efforts of CEDO, Tessoro and its owners invited the NaturArte Cooperatives to hold a special seafood market at the resort. All proceeds went to support the cooperatives and their families.

The NaturArte Cooperatives have fished, farmed and cultivated mariscos on the Morua Estuary since long before the American and Canadian tourists arrived. They were Las Conchas’ original residents and pioneers. In the years since, Puerto Peñasco and the Las Conchas neighborhood have grown quickly. CEDO has organized the 3 primary cooperatives into the NaturArte Ecotourism Corridor. This allows these indigenous residents to participate in the benefits of tourism and maintain their lifestyles.

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. Read more

Tessoro Ready for the Spring

Las Conchas Resort Living

Tessoro at Las Conchas is open for spring with a whole series of exciting improvements and facilities. Life on the Las Conchas Peninsula just got even better!

Tessoro opened its refined and re-tiled resort pool. With a waterfall, heated main pool and swim-up bar, it is the best place to cool off in town. The infinity-edge views from pool to blue sea are pretty spectacular. The toasty sea-side hot tub, one of the largest in any Rocky Point real estate development, is bubbling and a popular meeting point at sunset. Read more

Salt Lake City to Tucson to Rocky Point

Happy New Year Friends of Tessoro from all of us in sales at the award-winning, “over-the-top” condominium development out on the secluded Las Conchas peninsula. I returned to Puerto Peñasco on January 8 after spending a month in Salt Lake City where I live when not enjoying my time spent in our second favorite “home.” It’s great to be so close to skiing and our friends in Utah, but just as great to come back to the warmth of the Sea of Cortez and Rocky Point’s unbelievable beaches and natural beauty (and amazing real estate).

Update from the Las Conchas Peninsula

Although Tessoro’s visitors always see me in Rocky Point, my family is in the United States and this week I became a proud Marine Corp grandma. I left Puerto Peñasco to see my middle grandson PFC Ryan Gardner graduate from MCRD Boot Camp in San Diego. It made me so proud to see him after 13 weeks, now a young man. Walking on his arm was so special. The patriotism and pride is so incredible and the camaraderie of the parents and families is beyond belief. For anyone that knows me, I am an emotional person who cries while singing Silent Night and when Bambie’s mother died, so you can only imagine my reaction to all the patriotic songs. The final one was Lee Greenwood’s “I’m Proud to Be an American.” Read more

Interview with Lanae Johnson

From JOIN US, December Edition 2009
Lanae was raised in Tucson and grew up visiting Las Conchas with her family. She is now a happy mother of three and is moving into a Diamond Residence at Tessoro with her husband, Darry.

Q: So when did you first visit Rocky Point?

Over thirty years ago, our family started taking vacations to the beach at Las Conchas. We rented different beach houses and always enjoyed spending time at the estuary. The beautiful wide-open spaces offered something for everyone in our family. We enjoyed body surfing, walking the beach, collecting shells, fishing, exploring the coral reefs, building sand castles, frisbee, picnics, bonfires, and cruising the sand dunes. Read more
