About this property
ONLY 5 STAR RATINGS! Spotlessly clean. BEACHFRONT. Private. IMMACULATE. Quiet!
If you are the kind of person that likes spend your vacation in a place that is spotlessly clean and meticulously cared for, a home that sits beachfront on a pristine sandy beach, a magical place where the sea comes right up to the seawall during much of the lunar cycle, a rental property where the owners are very responsive to your needs and most of all, a place that feels like your home away from home, then this is the rental home for you.
Casita Carino was designed to be your tranquil oasis! The casita is decorated in the colors of the sun, sand and sea. Everything is clean, modern and kept and in impeccable condition. The cabinets and furniture were locally made which gives the house an authentic Mexican feel. The casita is perfect for one or two couples or a small family.
Casita Carino is quiet, calm, serene and literally just a dozen or so steps down to the beach. You will be treated to gorgeous ocean views from the great room, the front bedroom and your two private terraces. The terraces are some of the closest to the water and beach in all of Las Conchas. When the windows are open, the soothing sounds of the ocean fill the home.
The tides in section 9 of Las Conchas fluctuate greatly depending upon the lunar cycle. During the very highest of tides, the water comes right up to the sea wall and for a few hours, you feel like you are standing on the back of a ship looking out at sea. If you are lucky enough to experience an extremely high tide on a very windy day, you will be treated to an amazing, one of a kind splash show over the lower terrace wall. During an extremely low tide, you can walk out approximately 900 feet to explore the coral reefs. On most days, the tides fall somewhere in the middle of those two extremes.
Casita Carino is located in the residential, guard patrolled community of Las Conchas and has 24 security. It is located in section 9 which is close to the end of the community where the beaches are quiet and there is not a lot of street or vendor traffic. It also has pristine, sandy beaches instead of the rocky beaches that Rocky Point is known for. Casita Carino is also located very close to the estuary which is a great place to bird watch, look for shells, go fishing and just explore.
Casita Carino has 2 bedrooms. One bedroom is located at the front of the casita and has a king size bed and ocean views with sliding glass doors to the upper terrace. The skylight bedroom is at the back of the home and has a queen size bed, one large skylight (with a blackout shade so you can adjust the amount of light that comes in) and a few small skylights in the bathroom. Both bedrooms have high quality memory foam mattresses and bedding, ceiling fans, reading lights and an extra blankets. Each bedroom has it's own large en-suite bathroom with a shower, separate toilet room and armoire.
The great room has several skylights and has a very airy and open feeling. The sitting area has a comfortable sectional sofa and a 65" smart TV with DirecTV and the premium movie channels. The dining table has seating for four and a little bar aread where you can store your food. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need including a dishwasher, microwave, coffee makers (traditional filter type and K-cup), blender, toaster and a Brita water filtration pitcher.
There are two private beachfront terrace levels that have gorgeous views of the Sea of Cortez (in the winter months, the sun sets over the sea). The terraces sit about 12 steps above beach level for added privacy. The upper terrace has a great amount of shade, a propane BBQ, 3 chaise lounges, 2 chairs and an outdoor dining table with benches. There is also a lower terrace that has a private beach area where you can relax in the sand while your children play safely while still being on the property. The lower terrace has a fire pit, 4 Adirondack chairs and an outdoor shower.
While out on the terraces, you will be treated to views of Rocky Point's spectacular sunsets! At night, the show of stars in the sky is absolutely breathtaking!
We have also added all the little details and special touches that will make this feel like your home away from home.
These include:
~A 65" Smart TV with DirecTV ~HBO, Showtime and the Starz movie channels ~Wi-Fi ~Central AC and heat ~Ceiling fans throughout ~Room darkening curtains in the ocean view bedroom ~Memory foam mattresses ~High quality bedding ~Reading lights in each bedroom ~Extra blankets ~Clothing steamer ~Skylights throughout ~Propane BBQ with extra tank ~Outdoor shower ~Outdoor dining table ~Beach/sand chairs ~An assortment of adult and children's games ~Smoke detector/carbon monoxide detector and fire extinguisher for your safety ~Brita water filtration pitcher with cold water for your arrival. ~Bathroom towels, hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, lotion and soap. ~A house phone with a US number. All calls to and from the US are free.
Upon your arrival, FRESH LIMES AND SALT on the counter top await your cold margaritas and beer!

Wonderful, cozy casita on a beautiful stretch of Las Conchas. All the amenities you could think of and everything is so clean and in great condition. Seeing the waves come up to the wall during high tide is so cool! Also, really close to the estuary where you can have amazing oysters. Only about a 15 min. drive into downtown Puerto Peñasco.
The casita was just as described --comfortable, well appointed, clean and right on the Sea of Cortez.This portion of the Las Conchas beach is long and sandy without coral which made low tide walks a pleasure.Overall, it's a wonderful property we'd be happy to return to
Beautiful home, very responsive owners. I've stayed in 2 of their Puerto Penasco properties and cant say enough good things. Very clean and very comfortable. WiFi is fast. They even gave us a jump when I left the truck lights on all night by accident. Highly recommend. Highly recommend. . appointed and
Have you ever looked at pictures of your prospective stay and just hoped the property is at least half as good as the pictures..well let me tell you..we were pleasantly surprised that it was everything plus more.the accommodations were 1st class with attention to minute details to making our stay comfortable.we will definitely return!!
Our stay at Casa Carino was perfect! Alana was wonderful to communicate with, and the place is even more beautiful in person.
The neighborhood is very quiet and felt safe.
Alana arranged an hour-long beach massage for us, which I highly recommend!
The best part was having Alana’s support throughout our stay. We truly appreciate it and know exactly where we’ll be staying next time!
Thank you
The location was absolutely perfect, upon entering the home there was a nice gift and birthday decorations and that was so nice and I really appreciated it. Communication was on point with lots of information about restaurants and locations near the home. The home was immaculate and the decor and everything was well put together. Will definitely be returning to Casita Carino.
Had to get out of town to decompress and Soak in the beautiful ocean. Well we got much more than we bargained for. The house was beautiful, clean, and Had everything we needed and even more to make our stay comfortable. The constant easy access to the home owner was impressive. They offered extras we have never received before and walking into our home for the week With a fully stopped fridge and yummy treats all over the place was a huge bonus. Thank you again, and can't wait to come stay at your beautiful properties again very soon.
The property was stunning. This was our first time to Rocky Point ever and although we were not entirely fans of that part of Mexico (partial to the Yucatán) but we will absolutely be returning to stay at this stunning property or another one of Alana and Rick's properties again. When they say the waves hit the wall to the house it is no joke!! We had so much fun admiring the low/high tides and everyday was fascinated with the changing environment. We were able to collect a ton of seashells, and thoroughly enjoyed every feature to the house. Also, I highly highly recommend the massage services they facilitate. We also looked into the boat excursions and YiYi was fabulous informing us that she would not just take our money if the experience was not worth it (e.g. choppy water). Ale the cleaner made us great burritos and is an absolute saint if she has to clean up after the ocean does a number to the patio! Overall, such an amazing experience topped off with a gift from the host! Thank you again Alana and Rick!
Peaceful, beautiful, clean and more than promised!
Alana’s communication before our trip answered every single question for me. It was our 25th wedding anniversary and I wanted to surprise my husband with where we were going and he absolutely loved it! The all 5 star reviews helped me with my decision and it definitely lives up to the ratings. The location is at the far end of Las Conchas meaning although it’s about 5 miles from the entrance it’s very quiet and very little traffic. The beach was almost empty except a few people here and there, it was lovely to sit on the terraces and watch the boats in the distance, the people walking the beach, listen to the waves and just relax. We aren’t party people and didn’t go out much because we had everything we needed right there in the casita. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and grill so we bought some basics and hit Jessy’s Fish Market for the most delicious seafood to cook.The casita was SPOTLESS. Every nook and cranny was clean and well maintained. The decor was beautiful and looked exactly how a Mexican vacation home should look. The bed was absolutely heavenly and there are several different thicknesses of pillows to choose from which is such a thoughtful offering!This casita was so wonderful that we felt at home immediately. All of the furniture was very comfortable and being able to sit inside (it was a bit chilly and windy while we were there) with the screen doors providing us with the sounds and breeze was great. It was the perfect 25th anniversary!
This condo should be rated a 5+++! It was everything the website stated and more! To begin with, the view of the Sea of Cortez as you descend to stairs sets the tone! Perfect turquoise!
The place was spotless and well stocked. For a nice change there was enough toilet paper, paper towels, cooking utensils, dishwasher soap, shower soap, hand wash soap. The bbq was pristine (we used copper mats we brought to make an easy clean up).
The owner left very good information about the area and she was spot on! Take advantage of the breakfast burritos, enchiladas, salsa made by locals!
We were celebrating our 45th anniversary and she left a few celebration treats! WOW!
But, most of all, we loved watching the tides come in. The water comes right up to the patio and it is amazing!!! In fact, we planned our days around the tide schedule!
It was nice to be in an expat community with security 24/7. Signs were in English.
My advice….stay here and keep coming back!!!! I
The location is impossible to beat. The house was in perfect condition.

Best Beach house in Rocky Point!
Stayed here several times and never a dull moment. View alone is worth the rental. Alana and Rick have created a perfect VRBO experience. Will be back soon.

Great property
Great property no problems at all. Great view. Definitely made vacation that much better.
Alana’s home is the best property I’ve stayed at in Rocky Point. It is clean, updated, and comes with all the kitchen and beach essentials! The beach at that part of Las Conchas is also the best, with all sand for playing, relaxing, and long Beach walks. We had a great time at a great house!
This was the nicest, most comfortable, and most meticulously maintained home we have ever stayed at in Rocky Point and we have stayed at many. We unfortunately needed to cut our stay short due to what is occurring in the world, but we can hardly wait to go back!

Even better than the pictures
The owners clearly go the extra mile with nice attention to details. Loved the little private sand area and sitting inside on the couch looking at the waves was so relaxing.
