2 Best Hotels in Acapulco Diamante, Acapulco

This boutique-style hotel was built by J. Paul Getty in 1958 as a personal retreat, and you can still get some semblance of millionaire-style accommodations here for much less money. The hotel provides the serenity and sophistication of a private hacienda, but with the first-class services and amenities of an international resort, including a meandering pool overlooking the ocean. You can stay in a room or suite in the tower building or in one of the ultraluxe villas or bungalows, which have private plunge pools. A shuttle runs frequently to the adjacent Princess, where you can use all facilities.

This stunning hotel is at the foot of a lush hill on exclusive Playa Pichilingue, far from the typical beach crowds. All rooms are done in pastels and have tile floors, luxurious baths, and up-to-date amenities such as laptop-size safes outfitted with chargers. All rooms also have balconies or terraces with a view of peaceful Puerto Marques Bay. Eleven extra-spacious club rooms have their own concierge and extra amenities.
