Fodor's Expert Review Quinta Real Acapulco

This low-slung hillside resort, a member of one of Mexico’s best hotel chains, overlooks the sea and sits at the western end of Playa Revolcadero. The 62 suites have balconies, Mexican-made hardwood furniture, and closet door handles shaped like iguanas—the chain's signature motif. Six suites have private hot tubs and small pools on their balconies. If you can snag one of those, they don't cost much more than the standard suites.
