“Acapulco” will wrap up its run at Apple TV+ with its upcoming fourth season.
The comedy series was renewed for Season 4 in August 2024, but it was not previously announced that it would be the show’s last. The final season will debut with its first two episodes on July 23, with new episodes dropping weekly thereafter.
“These four seasons have been magical,” said series star and executive producer Eugenio Derbez. “‘Acapulco’ brought joy and heart to audiences around the world, and while saying goodbye is bittersweet, I’m so proud of what we created. From our incredible cast, writers, and directors, to the way we celebrated Mexico’s culture, beauty, and warmth — it’s been an unforgettable ride.”
The official description of Season 4 states, “Present-day Máximo (Derbez) works tirelessly to restore Las Colinas to its former glory before the grand reopening. In 1986, when a competitor claims the number one spot in the annual ranking of Acapulco’s ‘Best Hotels,’ young Máximo (Enrique Arrizon) will do whatever it takes to get back on top and secure Las Colinas’s future.”
The cast of the series also includes Fernando Carsa, Rafael Cebrián, Vanessa Bauche, Camila Perez, Carlos Corona, Chord Overstreet, Regina Reynoso, Jessica Collins and Regina Orozco. In addition to returning cast members Damián Alcázar, Jaime Camil and Cristo Fernández, Keyla Monterroso Mejia and Omar Chaparro join the new season as recurring guest stars
“We are so grateful to Eugenio Derbez, Apple, Lionsgate and all of our producing partners for the four amazing seasons we got to do of ‘Acapulco,’” said executive producers Austin Winsberg and Sam Laybourne. “This show has been a true miracle in the vast TV landscape – a bilingual, feel-good comedy with a predominantly Latin cast. It has been an honor and a privilege to work with this incredible cast, crew and writers every single day. This family that we all created together will be deeply missed.”

The show is inspired by the film “How to Be a Latin Lover.” Winsberg created the series with Eduardo Cisneros and Jason Shuman.
