Las Brisas

Acapulco


High up in the hills, this spruced-up 1950s resort once hosted the likes of Sophia Loren and Morgan Freeman. You too can stay in one of the individual casitas (villas) with a private pool, simmer in the hot tub of the master suite and hit the beach via La Concha beach club. All accommodations offer terrific sea views.
