Princesa is definitely my favorite Resort in Rocky Point. Princesa de Peñasco is resort living at its finest. From the beach front top floor apartment you’ll be able to see across the beautiful Sea of Cortez to the Peñasco lighthouse and beyond. From the ground-floor condo the heated pool is only a few steps away, and the most beautiful beach in Rocky Point is only a few steps beyond that.
Resort amenities include clubhouse with fitness center, on-site convenience store, heated swimming pools and a child wading pool. Princesa de Peñasco has been very carefully laid out to maximize the views and create the feeling of a luxurious, private enclave. Yet, it’s only minutes from Peñasco’s restaurants, shops and nightlife.
Princesa offers one-, two-, and three-bedroom condos that can accommodate up to eight people or as few as one in comfort and style. Apartments are generously sized with fully equipped kitchens, private baths, laundry room and TV/VCR. They have everything you need for an enjoyable, relaxing stay.

What is it?An FM-2 is a one year permit to reside in Mexico . Unlike the FM-3, however, this document makes the holder an Imigrante (Immigrant). The document must be renewed each year as long as you continue to reside in Mexico . After your fifth year you can apply to become an imigrado - immigrate into the country.
What do I need to get one?
Immigrant Permits ( FM-2) are issued to foreign nationals who, Unlike the FM-3 clients, have the intention of gaining permanent residency in Mexico . Under immigrant schemes, you are permitted to reside in the country, provided that you fulfill certain criteria (as specified by the type of permit) for a period of up to one year.
The permit must be renewed annually for a further four years in order for you to be able to apply for full residency status. If you wish to remain in Mexico as a “resident alien” after five years, you must apply for full residency status (there is a specific procedure to follow), and have this accepted. Once your application has been accepted and your “FM2″ has been issued (see below) you are entitled to full rights and responsibilities as any other Mexican Citizen, with the exception of the right to vote.
Upon receiving this status, you will receive a document that looks like a Mexican Passport (called a “FM2″) — Which looks like a gray version of the FM-3 — which enables you pass through Mexico ’s borders as if you were a Mexican National. You do not need to surrender your national passport, which you’ll use when you return to your home country: either for visits, or when returning home to dwell. If you stay outside of Mexico for longer than 2 years, or for 5 years in any 10 year period, you will lose your resident status in Mexico .

Do I need an FM-3?
You need an FM-3 if you are planning on living in Mexico, if you are going to purchase property or if you are going to rent a property that you already own.

An FM3 is a one year permit to reside in Mexico. This document makes the holder a No Imigrante (Non-Immigrant) like the tourist card but, unlike the tourist card you are allowed to live in the country for an extended period of time. The document must be renewed each year as long as you continue to reside in Mexico . After your fifth year you can either upgrade to an FM-2 or simply request a new FM-3.
The following information applies to persons who will be considered Rentistas meaning you will not work in Mexico .
