It looked like there was lots to do -- both touring type stuff, as well as water activities. I went for total relaxation -- sat on the beach & on the terrace and read a good book while admiring the view. Will try to do better when I go back next month!
Have fun -- I enjoyed it and look forward to going back.

I'm booked at the Acapulco Park Hotel for $48+ per night at the tail end of March. Looks good on location and adequate on comforts, but I guess they all do when it's an advertisement. Didn't have to prepay or risk anything if trip falls through. Wanted to have something confirmed on the off chance there'd be spring breakers affecting demand for that time.

Of course, I've got less than 10K miles on AA and may only be able to use 'em for magazine subscriptions, but STILL... I'll be watching over it like a hawk.

How did you get to/and from the hotel? Having never been to ACA, I assume that there are a bunch of shared vans available at the airport as in CUN for a decent price. Can you confirm?

I typically get my AA flights into my BA account. However, I have 2,000 miles on my AA due to bonus promotions... They were expiring last month, so I ordered a magazine in November (500 miles) then another in December (1,500 miles).... I still have 2,000 miles and have already got the magazines... From my experience.... the magazines were really a good deal. I had to open a point.com account to have activity on my AA account so the miles would not expired.
