Acapulco Mexico

SHOES: Flip-flops and flirty sandals for dress-up, baby!

I love Mexico. The climate, the people, the culture, the language, the food -- oh, and the tequila. I try to travel there at least every couple of months because there's always something new happening, and well, I just love Mexico.

Here's a review I wrote for one of my publications on two properties that I stayed while in Acapulco, back in September, the Fairmont Acapulco Princess and the Fairmont Pierre Marques.

Fairmont Acapulco Princess

Situated in three Aztec–style pyramid buildings on Revolcadero Beach, the Fairmont Acapulco Princess is a massive luxury hotel with 1,017 rooms, including seven penthouse suites. The high–rise somehow still manages to serve up a laid–back charm and consistent service, plus the 480 acres of grounds and golf course offer plenty of room to roam.

Fairmont Pierre Marques

The love affair of the Fairmont Pierre Marques began when oil tycoon J. Paul Getty built this private hideaway in Acapulco's exclusive Diamante district. Several owners and millions of dollars of renovations later, this intimate, beachfront getaway is framed by an exclusive neighborhood, the Pacific Ocean and the emerald slopes of Mexico's Sierra Madre.

As you can see, my whole experience at these two resorts was over-the-top.
What do you think?
Until next time (and hopefully sooner...)

I'm back...

Okay, maybe I was barely here to begin with, but life has gotten in the way. Not of my travels, but with blogging. So today is my attempt to get back on track. I promise to start with tips on the shoes to wear, because, chica, we all know how important the right shoes (aka heels!) are to a trip.

Since my last confession, er blog, I've traveled all across the world. I've been to Mexico: Cancun, Riviera Maya, Los Cabos, Laz Paz (Yacht Cruise), Acapulco (COMING SOON!), Manzanillo, and mad dash through Mexico City's airport (another topic on its own). I've also stayed around my home state of Colorado, visiting The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, Aspen and Snowmass. Other adventures include Las Vegas, Palm Desert/Palm Springs, California, Montreal (Canada), Hawaii (Honolulu and Malakai), Panama (COMING SOON!), and ...I'm sure I'm missing other places I've visited.
In two weeks, I'm heading to England, Wales and Ireland, so I'll be sure to update you on that. For now, I'm just checking in, letting you know what's going on and where to check for stories. I'll blog on some of this adventures -- more coming soon! Really....
Until then, pack your bags, and don't forget the right pair of shoes...Diana ;-)
