A word from the owner
If you are a stressed out mom or a busy executive looking for that often
sought after but seldom found ultimate getaway from it all", this is the
place for you and your family, if you choose to bring them. Once you walk
through the door, you are greeted by a beautiful paradise. The views are
breathtaking. The staff, who have been with us for many years now, will
welcome you and take care of your every wish from the moment you enter; from
unpacking your luggage to getting you drinks. Our
international cuisine, prepared by our cook will truly amaze.
Mom, what more could you want? When your children ask you for something you
can simply tell them to ask one of the staff. This is a REAL vacation from
the realities of life; you will not find this lifestyle anywhere else on the
planet. Enjoy five star restaurant quality dining and service in the
comfort of your home away from home. There is much you can choose to do in
Acapulco and the surrounding area or you can do nothing at all but take in
the sun, read a book and be served, hand and foot. There are many different
forms of family fun. Choose from a selection of many beaches, restaurants,
historical places.
There is a variety of entertainment for "children" of all
ages. For those who like the night life, Acapulco's Disco's, piano bars and
live shows certainly offer a diversity of choices in what to do and where to
go to. One of our favorite Restaurant "Tres Marias", is a short drive North,
beyond the Bay of Acapulco, where one side presents you with a wonderful
setting on the Pacific ocean, the other side a Lagoon where you can rent jet
skis. Another is the famous La Quebrada, where divers jump from the cliff to
the narrow inlet below. Or you can just walk down the mountain and go to
Paradise "Disco Beach" (a favorite of ours). You can parasail, rent fishing
boats, rent cruise boats, go scuba diving, roller blading, or deep sea
fishing. Enjoy history at Fort San Diago or tour Tarzan's house. Check out
golfing at the Princess or Villa Vera. Take a trip to the town of Tasco and
buy the most exquisite jewelry and silverware in the world. Or just "veg",
as we say in the states.
Back in the '70's when the New York Times took three days to be delivered; staying
at Las Promesas for us was like no other experience ever. It truly is a
place where the world's worries disappear. To this day, we have yet to
tire of the special feeling it gives us when we bring our 2 kids down to
relax in a world of luxury that cannot be had anywhere else at such an
affordable price.
