In - house staff are amazing. They prepared breakfast/lunch/dinner to perfection. Felt very safe. Driver always readily available for any excursion.

Thanks for a great week in Acapulco. The best about the house is the amazing view of Acapulco Bay. We enjoyed very much Jesus & Co, but felt a little bit insecure about the tipping, since it seemed to be a big issue; how much to leave them.???Maybe a good idea could be to leave some advices to the guests to have an idea. We did not need their service all week around, since we also wanted to some privacy within the family.Another big issue are the mosquitos, and good advice is to maybe get the house sprayed, one of the girls had more than 40 bites when sleeping in the big bedroom. We did our best to keep all doors and windows closed, but some how they still managed to stay arround. The downstairs shower was in a very bad shape, only one drop of water coming out of the tap. The house was perfect for our amount of people, and we had a fablous view to watch the fireworks on New Years Eve.

We were a group of friends coming from Mexico City. As promised, the view of Acapulco Bay is amazing, and the house is very comfortable. However, the best was the staff. Jesus and Alejandra took really great care of us, and Juanita's cooking is just heaven (you can't miss the "pescado a la talla" and the mixed seafood ceviche). We were sad to leave, and would definitely love to go back.

We LOVE Villa Alhambra! We have been coming here with 4 couples 4 years in a row. LOVE the relaxing and beautiful TRUE VACATION this villa provides! We have privacy, our own pool, a staff to wait on us, cook us meals, we never have to leave the place if we don't want to. We feel very safe. we leave the house sometimes to go down to the beautiful private beach which looks like it is a movie set, it is so beautiful! I can't say enough about this place. Looking forward to year 5 next year! I think that kids might get a little bored if families bring them here. There isn't a TON to do and you do have to drive to go to the beach. But for adults, and groups, you just can't beat the villa, the location, the view and the staff! Oh, also, it feels safer than ever. The people seem happier, the airport security seems to smile more, just all around very welcoming and the most 'comfortable' we have felt in 4 years.

We were very disappointed by our stay at Alhambra. The villa is in a very fine and safe neighborhood of Acapulco, with spectacular views of the bay below. VoIP phone for free calls back to the States was great. And Wi-Fi throughout was fast (although spotty in some areas of the house). However, we had specifically asked the owner if there were direct sun on the pool area, and he had assured us that there was. Turned out to be untrue, at least at that time of year. Also, the pool is unheated and very small. Probably more accurate to call it a "plunge pool," rather than a full swimming pool. Alhambra, itself, is in a state of early dilapidation. Wall plates and plastic handles for light switches are missing. Some bathroom fixtures are not fastened to the floor and leak around the base. Some window screens were ripped or otherwise had holes through which insects could enter. My son was very badly bitten all over his face and upper body over 4 nights in the master bedroom. We never pinned down whether it was mosquitoes or bedbugs. Vertical blinds were missing chains that attach their bases. Sofa cushions were badly stained and filthy. The heavily promoted master bedroom TV, with direct access to USA channels, never worked. There was significant hi-fi equipment, but it looked as if it had been wired and installed by me – certainly not by a professional. And the promised professional staff was nowhere to be found. We did have a very nice woman who cooked good, simple, home Mexican meals and who made the beds and washed our towels. And her husband, a helpful "concierge," came and went each day. Their very nice, 18-year old son also helped with serving, but we usually ended up getting our own missing plates and utensils and clearing the table ourselves when we were done. It was far from the "5-star" experience we had been promised. We decided, after 4 or 5 days, to move to a local hotel. That was about a month ago. Since then, I have been waiting for a reasonable resolution from the owner. To date, and despite his protestations that he would get back to me, I have heard nothing specific. We have since learned, until we arrived after Christmas 2013, that there had been no guests at Alhambra since August. Beware: the view – but not much else – is as promised!

We really enjoyed ourselves. Armanda the chef made her famous French toast piña coladas for my kids. She catered to all their needs, this is why I would come back over and over. The private pool and slide where enjoyed daily. I highly recommend this Villa we enjoy coming all the time and are always pleased with the staff and Jesus.

This was truely one of the most relazing vacations we have ever had and staying at Villa Alhambra was the main reason. We were a little shy about going back to Acapulco but so happy we did and once back there we remembered all the reasons we loved Acapulco from so many years ago. The people are very nice and the prices and service are much better that what we normally pay in many other resort cities. The Villa is pretty large and on 3 levels and is first class from end to end. The pool area is like your own resort with a waterfall and waterslide into the pool and a incredible view of Acapulco Bay. The bedrooms are very nice size and the master bedroom has is very large with a private patio overlooking the bay. The Villa has a USA phone which came in handy to stay in touch with family and also USA TV. The staff was just great, Jesus is the Villa Adminastrator and checked on us everyday and helped us set up any day trips or dinner reservations that we needed. The cook and housekepper were outstanding as well. The Las Brisas area in by far the best to be in and we felt very safe while we were there. The owner was very nice to work with and we can not wait to return and in fact we are already planning our next trip this coming October. Thanks for a great vistit!

We stayed here with a group of friends and had a wonderful time! The villa had everything we needed and the staff made our trip extra special. We really appreciated all of the communication the owners provided us as we planned our trip. We had such a great time that we have already booked a week for next year. I am not sure you could get more value at any other property or location in the world! The combination of scenic view, comfortable accomodations, surplus of ammenities, incredible staff, beautiful pool, easy access to the beach and private Las Brisas Club makes this the perfect getaway spot. Enjoy!!!

We just returned from five restful and energizing days in sunny Acapulco. Villa Alhambra is spacious, clean and has a spectacular view of Acapulco Bay at all times. It is the perfect size for a group and the layout of the house allows privacy as well as togetherness. We didn't feel the need to leave the house as it was enough to sit by the pool and enjoy the view. However, when going out, it was just as enjoyable to look at the other beautiful homes and vegetation that surround the villa. Perhaps the most pleasant and unexpected surprise were the people who provide assistance at the villa. At all times, Jesus, the administrator was attentive and went out of his way to meet our needs. He has a charming disposition and knows how to make visitors feel pampered. And, Juanita the cook was incredible! She surprised us every day with creative and tasty dishes. Although we had originally planned to eat out, we ended up staying at the villa the whole time to enjoy her cooking. Thanks Mark for a wonderful stay at your beautiful home!
