"Today Los Flamingos draws an international clientele for its fine views and its coco locos, tequila drinks served in a green coconut."
Michelin Guide
"In the 1950s, everybody who was anybody in Hollywood flocked to the former home of Johnny Weissmuller, alias Tarzan of the cinema, which had been transformed into a hotel."
DK Eyewitness
"The charm is intact, and the rooms are still alluring."
Rough Guide
"The “coco loco” cocktail was apparently invented here, and the lush gardens and sublime sunset views from Acapulco’s highest cliffs are a perfect accompaniment."

"Once a prime vacationing spot, when the cliff divers were a prime Acapulco top draw. Now a nice hotel, with great bay views, cliff divers daily, and close to Old Acapulco restaurants and beaches."
Rough Guide
"The location of this classic 1930s mid- to-upperrange option – right above La Quebrada – couldn’t be better."
Fodor's
"Another '50s Hollywood hangout, El Mirador exudes nostalgia, with white walls, red-tile roofs, and hand-carved Mexican furnishings."
Lonely Planet
"The rooms themselves are tiled...there's a restaurant (La Perla) where you can watch Acapulco's best spectacle for free, plus three tiered swimming pools overlooking the waves." Full review
