Princess Mundo Imperial is a large resort on Avenida Costera de las Palmas in the Riviera Diamante area of Acapulco, on the southern coast away from the old town. The resort reopened after a major renovation following the damage from Hurricane Otis in 2023, and the city government took part in the reopening ceremony in early 2025. The hotel describes more than a thousand rooms and suites, from deluxe rooms with golf or ocean views to junior suites, one-bedroom suites and penthouses. The grounds include several outdoor pools, a spa, a gym, a children's playground and an adjacent golf course, and the property sits on the beach with beachfront dining. It is the kind of resort where families can stay put for days, and it is also set up for events and entertainment, with live shows and a shopping area on site. The resort is the most expensive of the hotels in this guide, though some rate plans include meals.
Location and getting around
The resort is in Diamante, away from the old town and from the Costera Miguel Alemán strip, so you will use taxis, tour pickups or a hired car for sightseeing. That makes it a resort-first choice rather than a base for a city break. The resort has a concierge, tour and ticket assistance and a business centre, so the front desk can help arrange the city tour or a trip to the cliff divers.
Rooms and facilities
Rooms come in deluxe and platinum categories with either golf or ocean views, plus lofts, junior suites, one-bedroom suites and apartments with kitchenettes or full kitchens. Check-in is from three in the afternoon and check-out is at eleven. Most facilities are what you would expect from a large beach resort, with buffet breakfast, restaurants and a poolside bar. Some guests have reported individual pools or elevators out of service during busy periods, so ask when you reserve which areas are open.
Who it suits and good to know: families, groups and couples who want a resort stay with a beach, a spa and a golf course will find it a good fit. Breakfast is generally charged unless your rate includes it, wifi may carry a surcharge, and parking and pets carry a fee.
Dogs are allowed within limits. Because the resort is large, ask for a room close to the lifts and the pools if walking distances matter, and book early for holiday weeks. Hurricane season runs through November, so build flexibility into your plans and check current travel advisories before you travel.
