About this property

Welcome to Granada Del Mar

Granada Del Mar offers a genuine slice of old Puerto Peñasco, standing as a modest yet inviting beachfront retreat on Av. Sinaloa. With a solid 4.4-star rating, this hotel embodies the spirit of local hospitality, appealing especially to travelers seeking an authentic and unpretentious stay away from the typical tourist crowds.

The charm of Granada Del Mar lies in its unique location—guests can step directly onto the warm Sonoran sand from their rooms, an experience rarely matched elsewhere. While the rooms reflect a dated style, they are meticulously clean and provide functional kitchenettes with large refrigerators, allowing families and long-term visitors to cook and store food conveniently. The affordability here is a standout; for approximately $75 per night, guests enjoy beach access right at their doorstep.

Social life at Granada Del Mar thrives around its cozy bar where Antonio, the ever-attentive bartender, serves cold drinks, including a couple of well-kept tap beer options. This gathering spot attracts an eclectic mix of locals, expats, and returning visitors, framing an atmosphere that blends friendliness with lively entertainment, especially when live bands perform. The bar’s finger food menu complements the relaxed vibe, making it ideal for families and groups.

While some might find the setting less polished than upscale resorts along Playa Bonita, Granada Del Mar’s appeal is its authentic Mexican coastal character. The sense of community and the genuine warmth found here are rare commodities in today’s tourism landscape. Despite minor inconveniences like occasional noise from the nearby music venue or small maintenance issues, the overall experience is heartfelt and memorable, fostering a deep connection to the region’s culture and natural beauty.

For travelers who value immersion over luxury, and who appreciate waking up to the peaceful sounds of waves and sand underfoot, Granada Del Mar stands out as a meaningful choice. It captures the essence of Puerto Peñasco’s seaside allure and promises a stay rich in local flavor, comfort, and genuine warmth.

Location is amazing, not very many places you can walk out of your room and not only see the beach but touch the sand right out side your door. Rooms are not the classiest but they do provide a small kitchen and large fridge to cook and store food for your stay. The bar is fun and the food is great finger food for the family. Atmosphere is great when there’s a live band. Overall for the price there’s no place like this in Rocky point.

I love staying at non-touristy places and being accepted as a "local". To me, this place is "old Mexico". The bar is great with wonderful established clientele that are expats.... If you want "bougie" you better go book lodging around Playa Bonita in the condos... If you want a taste of the "old Puerto Peñasco" than you found a place! It's not bougie, but it's clean and towels are provided.... I always stay in the rooms with the kitchenette. FYI, you need to bring your own paper plates, cups and plastic flatware, cookware and utinsels to use on gas stove. There is a full sized refrigerator and freezer. If you are a coffee drinker you must bring your own coffee maker and set up, or you can go eat at one of several breakfast eateries near by. I like brewing my own coffee and stepping outside the back door and stick my toes into the sand and zen-out! ... Also, there is a front desk person who understands and speaks some English.

I love this place and definitely plan to go back. Rooms are very dated but are clean and the beds are comfortable. The price is right at $75 per night for kitchenette room. The rooms are immediately on the beach with Sand at the front door. There is a little attached bar and restaurant about 50 feet away. Making reservations is a challenging process.

This place is amazing. Inexpensive and on the beach 2 doors- one opens to the parking lot and the other opens to your private picnic table on the beach. Rooms are huge. The music next door is super loud, so dont plan on sleeping early. The door leading to the beach in our room was broken, and so was the window, but still worth the price and location! I will definitely stay here again.

I love the little bar on the beach. Granted there are only two tap beer choices but it is nice and cold. Antonio the bartender keeps all the drinks full. Everyone is friendly and have a good time. I have been going there for years and will certainly be returning.
