Your Puerto Peñasco Local Guide
Hi, I’m Ellie Balderrama — a bilingual, Mexican-American real estate pro who’s called Puerto Peñasco home for the past 9 years.
Born and raised in Los Angeles, I grew up crossing the border with my mom to visit family in Mexico. Those trips lit a dream in me from a young age — to one day live by the sea and create a life surrounded by warmth, color, and community. That dream came true… and now I get to help others make it theirs too.
With over 20 years of real estate experience in both the U.S. and Mexico, I bring deep knowledge of the process, local connections, and a passion for helping others find their place here — whether it’s a beachfront condo, a peaceful home, or land to build your vision.
From trusted lenders and builders to hidden gem taco stands, I’ve got the insider scoop — and I’m here to make your journey smooth, joyful, and completely doable.
