Acapulco (2021) is Apple TV+’s bilingual comedy where a young man lands his dream job at a luxury resort in the ’80s – only to find it’s not all piña coladas and paradise.
Welcome to Las Colinas, where the tan lines are deep, the drama’s deeper, and young Máximo Gallardo Ramos is about to charm his way into the resort – and your corazón. Set in the sun-soaked glam of 1980s Acapulco, this cheeky throwback follows Máximo, a wide-eyed dreamer from the wrong side of the beach, as he scores a job at the city’s most luxe resort and quickly learns that paradise comes with its own sticky secrets.
From juggling poolside diva guests to dodging resort gossip like it’s a beach ball, Máximo has his hands full. Add a messy crush, class-clashing friendships, and a suave mentor (shoutout to Don Pablo, the king of cool), and you’ve got a vacay that’s anything but relaxing. Think retro vibes, bold fits, and enough heart to heat up a cold margarita. Acapulco serves up comedy, culture, and all the glow-up goals in one feel-good fiesta.
