2015-12-28Travelers who book villas in Mexico may have a few ideas for what they want to do during their stay in Acapulco. While the area is rich with cultural charm, luxurious spas and delicious restaurants offering modern twists on Mexican classics, some people are more interested in the unique architectural flair of the Guerero region. Fortunately, if stylish structures are your passion, Acapulco has much to offer you.
You can start your architectural exploration at the Capilla de la Paz, or Chapel of Peace. Located in the Las Brisas area, the chapel is a classic structure straight out of the '60s that provides a breathtaking glimpse of traditional Mexican structures, and a stellar view of the city to match.
Those of you choosing to walk to Las Brisas from your luxury vacation rentals may also pass by the famed Arango House. Designed by celebrated architect John Lautner, this ultra modern structure has been a fixture of the area thanks to its sweeping curves, wide terrace and fluid feel that calls to mind the works of Gaudi.
Of course, if the deco style is more your taste, there is also the stylish façade of Los Flamingos.
Whatever your speed, Acapulco offers a wealth of gorgeous buildings to enjoy and several beautiful villas to relax in.
