Puerto Vallarta: The Leading LGBTQ+ Destination in Mexico — and the Home of the Almar Experience

Puerto Vallarta has earned its place as Mexico’s #1 LGBTQ+ destination, blending natural beauty, vibrant culture, and a deep-rooted spirit of inclusivity. For LGBTQ+ travelers looking for more than just a getaway, the city offers an authentic, welcoming, and culturally rich experience — and at the heart of it, Almar Resort, the most iconic LGBTQ+ luxury resort in the Romantic Zone.

A Legacy of Acceptance and LGBTQ+ Community

Puerto Vallarta’s connection to the LGBTQ+ community goes back decades, shaped by early travelers and residents who helped build a culture of respect and openness. That foundation created the city we know today: a place where diversity isn’t only welcomed — it’s celebrated.

Almar Resort honors this legacy by offering an elevated, luxurious, and proudly LGBTQ+ friendly environment where every guest feels fully embraced.

Lifestyle, Entertainment & Nightlife: LGBTQ+ Puerto Vallarta at Its Best

From trendy restaurants and inclusive nightlife to oceanfront experiences like Mantamar Beach Club, Puerto Vallarta stands out as a global LGBTQ+ playground.

At the center of it all, Almar Resort curates some of the city's most unforgettable experiences:

• Mantamar Beach Club – the most famous gay beach club in Puerto Vallarta, known for its iconic pool parties, DJs, themed events, and beachfront luxury.

• The Top Sky Bar – offering gourmet dining, sunset cocktails, panoramic ocean views, and the city’s most sought-after Drag Brunch, featuring national and international drag superstars.

• Eden Pool & Garden Suites – a serene, luxurious escape with an infinity saltwater pool and exclusive guest-only atmosphere.

Whether you're looking for relaxation, celebration, or connection, Almar delivers a complete LGBTQ+ lifestyle experience.

Festivals, Pride & Community Events

Puerto Vallarta is home to some of the most iconic LGBTQ+ events in Mexico.
Vallarta Pride, holiday festivals, and year-round drag and cultural celebrations bring together locals and travelers from all over the world.

Almar Resort proudly hosts special events, guest artists, and unique experiences that elevate every celebration — from Pride Week to New Year’s Eve and beyond.

Safety, Hospitality & a True Sense of Belonging

For LGBTQ+ travelers, safety and comfort are essential. Puerto Vallarta is consistently recognized as one of the safest and most welcoming destinations in Mexico for the LGBTQ+ community.

At Almar Resort, guests enjoy an environment designed specifically for them — inclusive, elegant, and created to feel like home from the moment you arrive.

Natural Beauty Meets Vibrant LGBTQ+ Culture

Beyond the nightlife and celebrations, Puerto Vallarta offers endless beauty:
golden beaches, jungle mountains, the famous Malecón, hidden coves, rivers, art galleries, local markets, and breathtaking sunsets.

Almar Resort perfectly blends this natural charm with luxury amenities, ocean-view experiences, and exclusive LGBTQ+ programming, creating the perfect backdrop for your trip.
