Bali Hai Hotel
Bali-Hai Hotel Acapulco is a tropical mid-range hotel nestled along the bustling Costera Miguel Alemán strip, offering a relaxed vibe with easy beach access and a lively poolside bar scene. Known for its retro 1950s charm and proximity to Acapulco’s Golden Zone, this family-friendly spot blends affordable comfort with a taste of the port’s classic nightlife energy.
Drinks and Bites
Bali-Hai Hotel, located at Avenida Costera Miguel Alemán 186 in the Costera Acapulco neighborhood, features a poolside Bali Bar serving specialty drinks like margaritas, cervezas (Corona, Pacífico), and tropical cocktails outdoors. The on-site Oceanic restaurant offers international dishes with a Mexican twist—think tacos, seafood, and hearty breakfasts—available for guests lounging by the two pools or in the garden area. Light bar snacks complement the drinks, keeping the focus on casual enjoyment.
The hotel operates with a bright, open layout, just one block from Condesa Beach via a partnered beach club (free tickets and meal discounts available at the front desk). Its 1950s-inspired design—think tiled floors and simple, colorful decor—pairs with modern touches like air conditioning and cable TV in all 121 rooms.

What to Expect at Bali-Hai Hotel Acapulco
Bali-Hai Hotel has been a Costera staple for decades, offering a nostalgic yet practical base in Acapulco’s Golden Zone, just steps from Playa Condesa and Diana the Huntress (0.3 miles).
The hotel buzzes with a mix of families, budget travelers, and solo adventurers, drawn by its two pools—one kid-friendly—and the Bali Bar’s easygoing charm. Drinks are refreshing and affordable, with the bar’s outdoor setting perfect for sipping under the sun or stars, though it’s more a wind-down spot than a party hub—guests often head to nearby discos like Disco Beach for late-night action.
