Maps and Directions

From Phoenix:
The Condo is located approximately 220 miles south of Phoenix.  It is located in at the end of Las Conchas, a beachfront residential neighborhood in Puerto Peñasco, Sonora, Mexico.  There are two common ways to get to Puerto Peñasco (Rocky Pt.) from Phoenix.  Which way you go will depend on where in Phoenix you start.  The only difference is how you get to Gila Bend, AZ.  Once you get there, there is only one road all the way down (Highway 85) to the border.  The condo is located just over an hour south of the US/Mexico border.
