The Royal Mayan Acapulco is a beautiful resort but needs updating in a few areas. The grounds are simply magnificent. My friends and I stayed in an ocean view (though the first floor - more palm tree view) 1 bedroom suite in the main hotel. The rooms are decorated beautifully however, the beds and pillows are very, very hard (no... more

As is evident from the reviews of many others, no trip to Acapulco is complete without the expert guidance of Roberto Alarcon (robertoalrey@yahoo.com.mx). He was always prompt to take us where we wanted to go. His tours are interesting, informative and entertaining. His restaurant recommendations were perfect. He lent us a mobile phone (for which we purchased prepaid minutes) so... more

Upon check-in, which was a breeze, we were asked the standard - we will upgrade you to the Grand Mayan if you will do the 90 minute... more

My wife, grad school daughter, seven year old granddaughter, and I stayed at the Grand Mayan June 7-14, 2008 on an RCI exchange in a 1 BR. What a memorable time we had. I will mention only a few things that others have not discussed much. The weather was sunny except for June 9 when it rained all day. Sebastian... more
