Banyan Tree Cabo Marques epitomizes refined elegance. The 45 subtly opulent villas are subtly opulent, striking ocean views, exceptional restaurants, and a wonderful spa combine to create an experience that recalls the glamour that once made Acapulco a hot spot for celebrities. This is one of the newer resorts in Acapulco, and its polish is a refreshing contrast to the waning grandeur that characterizes many of the city’s other high-end hotels.
Everything that well-heeled travelers could want in a vacation is at this luxury hotel (except for beach access, that is). The hotel’s infinity pool dazzles with its two-tone floor, huge teak deck, and view of the Pacific. In addition to glass-walled treatment rooms overlooking the ocean, the spa features an open-air spa tub on a wooden terrace, offering more dramatic views. And the 44 guest rooms are minimalist and contemporary, all with private balconies with stone seating.
Constructed in the 1957, Las Brisas has become a symbol of Acapulco’s Golden Era glamour. Built on a former Mexican fort in the hills above Acapulco Bay, the property features stone walls, antique cannons, and exceptional views. Rooms that accommodate families with children are clustered in a single area, helping to preserve the calm, romantic ambience for couples throughout the rest of the hotel. Some suites feature grotto-like bathrooms with rainfall showerheads, step-down baths, and rock walls.
