I think it's far easier in Spanish, because to the best of my knowledge, the language mostly follows a one-vowel-per-syllable rule. Or maybe that's just me projecting my Latin studies onto it.

Mostly, yeah, except for diphthongs when you'll get 2 vowels in the same syllable.

Examples:

Amigo = A / MI / GO
Estudiante = ES / TU / DIAN / TE

The dipthong is in the second one.
