After reading all these wonderful reviews what more can I say. Staying at Casa Monica is a must!! Gretchen Ellinder is a gracious host!! The only problem I had was finding a way to contact her, but now that I have I will share with you this hidden treasure of Cholla Bay. You can contact Gretchen at 602-412-3311. Make your... More

I booked here based on other TripAdvisor reviews and was very pleased. You get plenty of room (essentially an apartment plus a huge deck with great view over the bay), very clean rooms (big points for my wife), great decorating (bright Mexican colors), and great food for breakfast (fried plantains, mangoes and such). I would definitely book here again. More

What a wonderful place for our family to relax. The calm water of Cholla Bay was perfect for our two year old daughter and Gretchen, the host, was amazing. She was warm and inviting and made us feel at home. The casita was beautifully decorated in local style and the breakfast was abundant and delicious. An excellent place to go... More

This is a wonderful B&B located right on the bay. Great hospitality. It was a very warm and friendly environment. The accommodations were nice. The breakfasts were fantastic. Meeting the owner was like meeting a long-time dear friend. We joined the other guests for a fun-filled day of riding Quads. We would go back in a heartbeat. More

I had been to Rocky Point and my impression was that Cholla Bay would be a dusty dirty little village full of rowdy people. Absolutely not so.

After a fantastic breakfast of fresh fruits, french toast, amazing potatoes, egg which tasted like eggs used to taste, we walked across the bay when the... More

This is better than a 4 star resort. It feels like home the minute you step foot on the property!!!! Gretchen is a wonderful host and the food and lodging are a+!! What a beautiful location & clean and comfortable rooms! If you are planning a trip to Puerto Penasco this is defiantly the place to stay. Walking distance from... More

My family stayed at the Casa Monica B&B in Cholla (or Choya) Bay Oct of 2005. What a place!! We found it totally by pure dumb luck, searching for a place to stay on a whim and saw the sign, stopped to ask about vacancy and we are now permanently hooked! Cost is $95 per night per bedroom, with a... More
