A Taste of Travel: Fiesta Americana Condesa Acapulco by Paris Permenter
& John Bigley
Acapulco. It's glitzy. It's glamorous. It's Hollywood with a fiesta spirit. This beautiful port city, filled with the vacation homes of the some of the silver screen's biggest names, is a favorite haunt of the rich and famous. But it's not just the jet setters who get to enjoy Acapulco's magnificent beaches and spirited nightlife. The Fiesta Americana Condesa Acapulco appeals to the average couple seeking good prices. Location is another draw, with the resort's view of spectacular Acapulco Bay, proximity to shops, and promise of round-the-clock fun. Days at this resort can be as busy or as blissful as the two of you choose. You can stroll the Costera and shop at fashionable boutiques for designer clothing or at charming mercados for local crafts. You can don a mask and snorkel in the clear waters off the beach or take an excursion to La Quebrada to watch cliff divers make their death-defying leaps. Or just sip a margarita while floating weightlessly in the pool. However you decide to spend your day, it's always a thrill to watch the sun set over the bay and see the lights come on to greet another pulsating Acapulco night.
