All Inclusive Acapulco - Resorts ranked by reviews

[ Day 6 ] Acapulco

All inclusive Acapulco resorts are not as abundant as some other destinations in Mexico. Here though I will be ranking the all inclusive Acapulco resorts based on travelers reviews.

Acapulco is the longtime king vacation destination in Mexico. When Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton took a romantic holiday there 50 years ago, this quiet tropical beach destination became known worldwide for it's great climate and beautiful beaches.

Over the last 50 years Acapulco has grown to look like Waikiki beach on Honolulu, with the beach surrounded by highrise hotels and resorts. Some of the most popular beaches are Popagayo, Tamarindos and Icacos.

In recent years Acapulco has become the new hot destination for the spring break hoards, with Senor Frogs the center of the Acapulco partying scene.

Acapulco is a mecca of resorts and highrise hotels. There are over 170 in the Acapulco area alone. The all inclusive Acapulco resorts are limited to 8. What I am going to present here is the rankings of quality based on reviews from multiple sources to give you a good idea of which one might be best for you. The reason for using multiple sources is because every one is different. That's true, every review source for hotels and resorts will give you a completely different list, some include many of the same resorts but often will rank a different resort number one.

So I take several sources, giving more weight to the higher number of reviews, and merge them together to produce a good objective ranking.


Here they are including the lowest starting rates for a room for 2 as of May 27, 2012.

1. Emporio Acapulco - $75 on Expedia

2. Ritz Acapulco - $155 on Expedia

3. Crowne Plaza Acapulco - $72 on Expedia

5. Copacabana Beach Hotel - $59 on Book It

6. Park Royal Acapulco - $173 on Expedia

7. Hotel Club Real Bananas - $110 on Expedia

8. Avalon Excalibur - $78 on Book It


Emporio Acapulco takes top honors as the highest rated all inclusive Acapulco hotel. Emporio operates several resorts in most of Mexico's most popular destinations. The Emporio Acapulco is a beautiful resort and very modern and luxurious.

Keep in mind that not all of these all inclusive resorts on this list are all inclusive only. Some are regular resorts that offer all inclusive package deals.

If you are interested I have also ranked the Ixtapa all inclusive resorts and the top 10 hotels in Puerto Vallarta.

I hope this ranking of all inclusive Acapulco resorts helps you to plan your best Mexican vacation ever!
