Our travel advisors’ insider tip

Banyan Tree Cabo Marques has nine categories – and they differ not by floor area but by distance to the water.

Three steps are written into the names: the view of the bay, the view of the open sea – and right on the water.

That is a different question from the usual one. On most of our pages the decision is: how many square meters? Here it is: how close?

Our advice: decide first whether you want to be in the water in the morning or looking at it. If you swim, take the category on the water. If you spend the day out and come back in the evening, the higher position gives you the wider view – and on this bay that means the sunset over the Pacific.

Tell our travel advisors which of the three positions you mean. With nine categories that is the entire choice, and in high season it goes early.

Where to Stay in Acapulco: Punta Diamante South of the Bay

Acapulco divides into three parts, and they look very different.

Punta Diamante in the south is the newest of them: slopes above the water, golf courses, free-standing properties. Our recommendation: Banyan Tree Cabo Marques.

For orientation: the Costera runs as a shore road around the bay and forms the middle part, with the hotels of the sixties and seventies. The old town with the Zócalo, the cathedral and the fishing harbor lies to the west. And the cliffs of La Quebrada, where the divers jump, are at the western end of the city.

The airport is in the south, on the same side as Punta Diamante.

Rooms and Categories: The Property from the Inside

Banyan Tree Cabo Marques has nine categories.

What separates them is their position relative to the water: some look onto the bay, others onto the open sea, and a third group sits right on the water.

The motif is the same in all three cases – the Pacific – and it is the reason this property was built on a headland rather than along the shore road.

Tell our travel advisors whether you would rather stay closer or higher. That single question settles the category here.

What a Night in Acapulco Costs

A night at Banyan Tree Cabo Marques costs 268 €. The suitespot benefits apply from the first night.

Banyan Tree Cabo Marques268 €1st night

When it is at its best: from November to April. That is the dry season, the air is clearer and the evenings stay pleasant.

When it is quietest: in May and June, between the seasons. The sea is already warm and the bay still empty.

When to book early: over Christmas and New Year, during Semana Santa and on the long weekends in winter. That is when all of Mexico City comes to this bay – and with nine categories it means very early.

And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in June exactly as in January.

How long to stay: four nights. One for arriving, two for the water and the bay and one for the city with the old town and the cliffs.

Pacific, Cliffs and Exclusive Services in a 5-Star Hotel

What our travel advisors arrange most often in Acapulco is the evening at the cliffs of La Quebrada: the divers have been there since the thirties, and the last jump of the day is made after dark with torches. If you want to see it, allow for the trip from the south of the city – that is half the bay.

Alongside it: the bay of Acapulco, best understood from the water; Isla La Roqueta offshore, reached by boat; the Capilla de la Paz on the hill above the city, from which you see both ends of the bay at once; and the Zócalo in the evening, when the city comes out.

And the food: ceviche from the Pacific; pescado a la talla, grilled over coals and brushed with two marinades; pozole, eaten on Thursdays in Guerrero; and the coconut sold fresh along every stretch of beach.

A stay at Banyan Tree Cabo Marques includes breakfast for two, a hotel credit of 100 US dollars, an upgrade subject to availability, a late check-out, a welcome gift.

You redeem the credit at the property – and since a headland does not put the next restaurant around the corner, it is worth more here than in a city center.
