Acapulco, Mexico Water Ski Vacations

Welcome! Whether you are a prospective guest or a Ski Paradise veteran, we want to invite you to Acapulco. Most of our guests have at least two things in common: they want to improve their water skiing and have a great time on vacation. We're confident we'll be able to accomplish both of these.

Acapulco Is a Water Skiers Paradise
Acapulco is a city of a million and a half people with a great nightlife, great beaches and the world's most perfect climate. Since the new Mexico City to Acapulco toll road was completed, the city is experiencing a resurgence.

The Best Skiing in the World From November to May
Come see why Water Ski Magazine calls Ski Paradise Acapulco the best ski site in the world. What you will experience is a magical week of great skiing, great instruction, friendly people, excellent accommodations and fabulous food. To read about a typical week click on: Just another day in Paradise..

Your All-Inclusive Ski Vacation
Your week includes 7 days and 7 nights accommodations with 6 days of skiing. Also included are instruction, a video session, all meals and transportation to and from the airport if you arrive on Saturdays.

In Acapulco the accommodations are at our new Villa Aquina (pronounced a kee na) which means 'higher ground'. The villa is located in the exclusive La Cima residential club at 1,400 ft. above sea level and above the famous Las Brisas hillside. Our villa has two great views, to the bay and beautiful lights at night and to the southeast down the Pacific coastline.

Pools & Tennis
We have access to tennis courts and an Olympic size pool. Of course we have our own pool at our villa with a swim up bar and jacuzzi in the pool. This is an infinity pool located on the top floor of our three story villa.

We want our guests to experience total relaxation. At the villa we try to make your vacation absolutely care-free. Whether you need help negotiating a taxi, want to know where the best discos are, or need a little laundry done, our house-staff will help. We have 7 skilled personnel at the villa and another 4 at the ski site. You will be so pampered, that it will be difficult to return home.

It's a Golfer's Paradise Too!
If you have friends who are not skiers but like to golf and enjoy the unique Acapulco villa lifestyle, we can accommodate all of you. We'll ski, they'll golf and we'll all meet for lunch afterward.

Golfers can now enjoy five courses (there is a sixth under construction). The latest is the private and spectacular Tres Vidas where Ski Paradise guests will have golfing privileges. Also available are the courses at the Princess Hotel and The Mayan Palace.

The five golf courses of Acapulco and their rates are: Tres Vidas $190, The Princess Hotel Golf Course $150, the Puerto Marquez course $150, The Mayan Palace $140 and the 9 hole Acapulco Club de Golf for $75.

Tres Vidas is a world class golf course and is located right on the ocean.
Tres Vidas is Gordon's club and his guests can use the pool and dip in the
ocean. Surfing or body surfing are also available in front of Tres Vidas or
across from the South site slalom courses. There is an undertow at times, so
we recommend going only in groups and in front of Tres Vidas where there is a
lifequard.

Fabulous Food
In a word, the food is fabulous! Truly, by having our own cooking and house staff, the meals are better than dining out. Guests might enjoy the Reddened Salmon with a tropical fruit salsa, or the Breast of Chicken in a Pablano Chile sauce. Click here for sample menus and photos. Of course, one night per week we give our in-house chef, Alicia, the night off so we can sample one of Acapulco's best restaurants.

See Acapulco
Even slalom addicts need to take a break from skiing! Early in the vacation you can skip the siesta and take in some of the sights. For example, go explore the Fuerte de San Diego, a landmark Spanish fort built in 1616. Hire a taxi and have them drive you through the winding streets of the old town. One evening after dinner we can take in the world famous Cliff Divers at La Quebrada.
