Get ready to check into Las Colinas one last time this summer when Acapulco season 4 premieres. Apple TV+ announced the highly-anticipated release date for the comedy-drama, as well as the bittersweet news that the fourth season will be the last. Even though I'm not ready to say goodbye, I think many of us fans saw this coming. So when does the final season get here?

Acapulco bids farewell with season 4 in July

Acapulco season 4 premieres Wednesday, July 23, 2025 with the first two episodes on Apple TV+. An exact episode count wasn't shared. Though based on previous seasons, it's expected that there will be a total of 10 episodes.

The release of the new season comes a little over a year following the season 3 finale. In the streaming world nowadays, that's actually not a very long time or wait. So at least that's something good. It'll also be nice to have the series in the warmer months.

The upcoming fourth season of the Apple TV+ series Acapulco will be the comedy’s last on the streamer. Per Variety, the comedy was renewed for its fourth season back in August 2024, but at that time, it was not confirmed that it would be the final one for the series starring Eugenio Derbez.

The outlet has now confirmed that the fourth season, which will premiere on Apple TV+ on July 23, will be Acapulco’s last. “These four seasons have been magical,” said Derbez, who plays Máximo Gallardo on the series and is also an executive producer. The show follows a successful businessman (Derbez) as he reminisces about his younger years in the 1980s while working his dream job at a major resort called Las Colinas. The series currently boasts a 93% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.

“Acapulco” has been renewed for a second season at Apple TV Plus.

The Spanish and English-language comedy series stars Enrique Arrizon as Máximo Gallardo, whose dream comes true when, in 1984, he gets the job of a lifetime as a cabana boy at the hottest resort in Acapulco. But he soon realizes the job is far more complicated than he ever imagined as all of his beliefs and morals come into question. Eugenio Derbez narrates the series and plays the present-day version of Máximo.

Season 2 will see young Máximo in 1985, contending with upheaval at the resort, unexpected problems at home and a new love interest who just might rival the girl of his dreams. In the present, older Máximo (Derbez) arrives in Acapulco, where he encounters various people from his past — for better and worse.

Apple TV+ has renewed its bilingual comedy series Acapulco for a second season. Production will begin this spring with a return to Mexico.

Executive produced by Eugenio Derbez, Acapulco tells the story of twenty-something Máximo Gallardo (Enrique Arrizon), whose dream comes true when he gets the job of a lifetime as a cabana boy at the hottest resort in Acapulco.

Season two picks up right on the heels of season one. In 1985, Máximo must contend with upheaval at the resort, unexpected problems at home, and a new love interest who just might rival the girl of his dreams. In the present day, Older Máximo arrives in Acapulco, where he encounters various people from his past — for better and worse.

The cast also includes Fernando Carsa, Damián Alcázar, Camila Perez, Chord Overstreet, Vanessa Bauche, Regina Reynoso, Raphael Alejandro, Jessica Collins, Rafael Cebrián, Regina Orozco, and Carlos Corona.

Technically, “Acapulco” starts at the end. On a sunny, cloudless afternoon in Southern California, Maximo Gallardo (Eugenio Derbez) takes in his view of the Pacific from a sprawling estate. On a day off from his life as a financial mogul, Maximo welcomes his nephew Hugo (Raphael Alejandro) for a relaxing kickback. In celebrating his young relative’s birthday, Maximo regales him with the tale of his own teenage days, working at the luxury Las Colinas resort in Acapulco, Mexico.

As the show judiciously cuts back and forth between present-day and 1984, Maximo slowly introduces his younger self (Enrique Arrizon) amidst a sea of family members and coworkers. Childhood friend Memo (Fernando Carsa) helps him navigate life at Las Colinas, as he pines after hopeless crush Julia (Camila Perez), contends with rivals Hector (Rafael Cebrián) and Chad (Chord Overstreet), and does his best to impress the resort’s manager (Damián Alcázar) and...

When wide-eyed, ambitious Maximo (Enrique Arrizon) looks at the gleaming pink hotel that’s overlooked Acapulco his entire life, he sees opportunities and riches he can’t get anywhere else in his town circa 1984. He sees a way out of poverty, a chance to dream, an escape from the mundane. When his mother (Vanessa Bauche) looks at Las Colinas, however, she sees not just a den of sin, but a nest of sirens that will lure her children away for the superficial glory of serving white tourists who will forget their waitstaff the moment they fall out of view.

In “Acapulco,” a new Apple TV Plus comedy from Austin Winsberg, Eduardo Cisneros and Jason Shuman, the truth lies somewhere in between. As a Las Colinas pool boy, Maximo’s natural instincts and charm quickly make him a hotel staple, which helps him towards his goal of funding his mother’s eye surgery.

Exclusive: Jessica Collins, Chord Overstreet (Glee), Vanessa Bauche, Rafael Cebrián, Fernando Carsa and Regina Reynoso round out the ensemble cast, joining Eugenio Derbez in Acapulco, Apple TV+’s bilingual comedy series inspired by 3Pas Studios and Pantelion Films’ 2017 Derbez starrer How to Be a Latin Lover. Veteran Richard Shepard has been tapped to direct the pilot episode for Lionsgate Television.

Enrique Arrizon, Damian Alcázar, Camila Perez and Raphael Alejandro also star.

Created by Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist creator Austin Winsberg, Eduardo Cisneros and Jason Shuman, Acapulco is a half-hour Spanish- and English-language comedy that centers on Maximo (Arrizon), a young Mexican man whose dream comes true when he gets the job of a lifetime at the hottest resort in Acapulco. But soon he realizes...

We’ve all heard the warning, “If you play with fire, you’re gonna get burned.” Well, that’s nothing compared to the consequences if you steal gasoline straight from the source — an extremely high-risk practice now on the rise in Mexico, where the combustibility of extracting raw fuel from open fields is amplified by the dangers of dealing with the cartels who control this emerging black market.

However volatile, these activities have become widespread enough that the locals now have a word for such outlaws: “Huachicolero” — the original Spanish-language title of director Edgar Nito’s attention-grabbing, ignition-ready debut, “The Gasoline Thieves,” which earned its talented helmer the “best new narrative filmmaker” title at the Tribeca Film Festival. For complicated reasons, Mexican crime stories generally don’t translate well across borders: Those that play well at home tend to feel exaggerated and over-the-top compared to the cold-blooded ruthlessness of movies like “Sicario,...
