ACAPULCO MEXICO

One of the most exciting cities in the world, Acapulco is famous for its explosive nightlife, postcard beaches, unlimited water sports, first-class hotels, gourmet restaurants and the breath-taking physical beauty of Acapulco Bay!
Here you will find massive nightclubs that are state-of-the-art temples of sensuality packed wall-to-wall with beautiful people partying until sunrise. Acapulco's warm water bay and pristine beaches have been irresistible to humans since the days of the Aztec Empire. The Spanish immediately recognized the strategic advantages of the perfectly formed bay and used it as their base to explore across the Pacific. In fact, Acapulco was the only port in the New World authorized to receive Spanish galleons from the Philippines and China.
The fishing in Acapulco, particular sailfish, is legendary, in fact, it's news when someone doesn't catch a fish. The snorkeling and Scuba diving here are first rate and there is nothing as exciting as jumping on a jet-ski and riding at full throttle across Acapulco Bay.

ACAPULCO BEACHES

Caleta Beach: Once the most popular beach in Acapulco, Caleta beach is located in the "old" part of the city. For swimming it is still one of the best in Acapulco, and so it is popular for families with kids however, please read the warning above. You will be approached by a steady flow of vendors, so do not expect to get much peace and quiet here.
Icacos Beach: Located in front of La Palapa Hotel, Playa Icacos is a favorite beach for vacationers and spring breakers. Parasailing and waverunners are readily available at both Icacos and Condesa Beach.

Condesa Beach: Located in the center of Acapulco Bay, Condesa beach is another popular beach for tourists and locals. Consequently, it is also a favorite spot for a variety of vendors who will be bothering you every 5 minutes. Icacos is better.

Puerto Marques: I like this beach, which is also the favorite of many Mexican tourists. Puerto Marques is located along the route to the airport and is 15-20 minute trip by bus from the main strip. The waves are usually fairly calm here. It's a good beach for taking pictures.

Revolcadero Beach: Located by the Princess Hotel near the airport, Playa Revolcadero is a beautiful and relatively private beach. Unless you are staying at Princess, it's a fairly long trip by bus. But if you want to relax at a more exclusive beach, this is your best bet. Eat at the cabanas for lunch.

Pie de la Cuesta: Plan to go here for the day and stay for the sunset. It's another longer trip, this time to the west. The waves can be huge here, so swimming is generally not recommended. There are some good seafood restaurants nearby, and it is a good escape from the busier beaches along the main strip. There is also a lagoon for waterskiing.

La Bonfil: The best waves for surfing (or so I am told - let me know if there is a better place). You can also swim here, but the waves are rather high. La Bonfil is located between Puerto Marques and Revolcadero Beach, so you need to take a little trip to get there. The beach itself is rather peaceful and doesn't have the usual horde of vendors.
Hornos Beach: Closer to the center of town, Hornos beach has calmer waves and is a popular beach for the local population.
Gay Beach: This is actually part of Condesa Beach and is located between Beto's Restaurant below the Bungy Jump and the Condesa Hotel. Visit Palapas nearby

 HOTEL LAS BRISAS

Blushing brides—such a charming and antiquated concept!—fit right in at this venerable honeymoon hotel perched on a hill high above Acapulco Bay. Various makeovers over the years have updated the property since its 1950s heyday, but this grande dame isn't into trends. Bathtubs are scarce in the 263 spacious but simple casitas, and the linens and towels feel more like Fieldcrest than Frette. Still, old-school panache abounds. Waiters balancing room-service trays complete with flower vases deliver breakfast to each casita's door in the morning. A shuttle leaves every 20 minutes to bring guests to the beach club at the foot of the hills, where pools are set like glassy ponds amid boulders and palms. You can always be lazy and float in your casita's private plunge pool instead.) A sunset dinner at the French–Mexican Bellavista restaurant is the perfect way to end the day.
