Acapulco Hotel Guide. Independent Hotels in Diamante, Acapulco, Guerrero

With its upmarket resorts, Diamente—or Diamond—lives up to its name. Beaches here tend to be less crowded than those on Acapulco Bay. Locals favor Revolcadero and Barra Vieja beach, where diners feast on grilled snapper and seafood prepared in beachside huts. Near the airport, water lilies bloom in the mangroves of Tres Palos Lagoon (Laguna de Tres Palos), a haven for egrets and flamingos.
