The history of Acapulco is older than you would think. Did you know
that from 1565 till 1815, Acapulco was the destination for the
Manila Galleon? These galleons carried spices, porcelain, ivory and
lacquerware from China and Southeast Asia via the then Spanish
controlled Philippines in exchanged for New World silver. The goods
then crossed Mexico overland for shipment to Spain from the port of
Veracruz.

After a decline in the early XVIII century, Acapulco’s fine natural
harbor began to turn its fortunes around. After 1850, Acapulco
became a stopover for a flotilla of steamships, filled with San
Francisco bound gold-rush adventurers. At the turn of the century,
Acapulco began its adventure as a resort destination. During the
1940’s the Mexican President fell in love with Acapulco and thought
that everyone else should have the same opportunity. By the 1950’s,
investments had made Acapulco as the beach destination of choice in
Mexico. Movies stars such as Elvis Presley and Lana Turner began
coming, staying for weeks, and buying homes. Now Placido Domingo,
Ricky Martin and other stars have residences in this dynamic resort.

Over the last 10 years, major investments were made to modernize the
infrastructure and expand the services required to accommodate
tourism. With the highway to Mexico City, Acapulco has become a
location for week-end retreats for stressed city dwellers looking
for an opportunity to refresh themselves.
