Booked thru Rocky Point rentals and could have gotten a better price as walk-ins and no one was hardly there. THis is more of a motel with three stories and some suites.
Next to the Malecon where locals stroll and musicians play on weekend nights. No beach here but $2 cab ride gets you to either beach area.
Stingy on towels, good restaurant, clean rooms and pool and wonderful ocean views. No fridge.
Restaurants a short walk away.

First time in PP. Wife and kids wanted to stay in the fancy hotels by the beach. So, I drove over there with the family in the car.
We drove around looking for a good price in the fancy newer hotels. While driving I noticed all the angry tourist drivers zipping around and no one really looking happy.
I turned the car around and headed back to the old town area.
Boy was my wife pissed at me for not wanting to stay at the new fancy angry tourist area.
Now then, we located a hotel called Vina Del Mar and I said we are staying here. After checking in and getting two rooms we went to the pool, looked at the ocean from our room, took a walk downtown, watched a sunset, and enjoyed all the calm friendly people. My wife fell back in love with me. The kids had the time of their lives. All was good and my life was complete again.
Great place, but if you are a type A person just stay at the fancy beach hotels or maybe buy a rip off time share.
But for me, I'll take the old town anyday over that fancy area. If I want fancy I'll go to Vegas....OH! but wait that's where I live and don't need it on my vacation.

We've stayed there numerous times over the last 3 years and always found it a good value. It is clean and the staff friendly and even overlooks the water, if you request a balcony room. I do NOT recommend it on a long holiday weekend, however. They have security onsite and come quickly, but the drunken college kids are a pain!!

On a whim I headed to Rocky Point to escape the Arizona summer heat. With no reservations I drove into Rocky Point and looked at the downtown area and realized that that is where the life of the town was.. and because of that the other locations with the newer, fancier hotels were out of the question. The Vina Del Mar could use a minor facelift. The first room we were given smelled heavily of smoke but the reception provided us with another room when we voiced our displeasure. This room was clean and overlooked the pool. The pool was beautiful with a delightful wet bar but be sure and use ear-drops afterwards as the rim hadn't been cleaned well and there was some algae arond the ladders in the water. The poolside drinks were very good as long as you did not want anything fancy. The location was ideal; you were only two blocks to the malecon and the evening breezes were pleasant. The room was $70 which was not unreasonable as I did not have a reservation. The Lighthouse Restaurant was directly above the hotel on the hill and was a great place to eat... Just don't plan on walking there!
