They come with a minimal food and beverage guarantee and towel service fee (less than 500 Mexican pesos).ĬasaMagna Marriott Puerto Vallarta Resort & Spa is located in the Marina District and is perfect for those seeking the ultimate in Mexican luxury. Insider’s tip: Call a few days ahead and reserve one of the premier poolside cabanas. MantaMar draws everyone, including partiers who docked their yacht right off the beach. During Pride, MantaMar served as the hub for the Andrew Christian Fashion Show, the official press conference, the closing party and other festivities. Located in the heart of the Zona Romantica (the Gayborhood), MantaMar Beach Club Bar and Grill is the not-to-miss daytime beach club - Miami-fabulous without the attitude or price tag. Or, the Gay Bar-Hopping Tour is a popular way to meet visitors and locals. Expect nudity, dirty drinking games and free-flowing libations. The all-day adventure booze cruise with a stop at an “anything-goes” private beach encourages boys to be boys. The men-only Wet and Wild Boat Cruise is not to be missed. There are also dozens of massage parlors for about $25. There are 14 gay bars, four dance clubs, five gay hotels, three boat cruises and one gay sauna (and plenty of hot, exotic dancers). There is much to do in Puerto Vallarta, from relaxing on beautiful beaches to swimming with dolphins with Dolphin Discovery or zip-lining with Canopy el Indio.

This year’s Pride - which ended this past Sunday - drew celebrities including designer Andrew Christian, Morganna Love and Viktoria Volkova for a week of parties, including a small, but respectable, Pride parade. The snowbirds have gone home and the LGBT locals are ready to let their hair down during Puerto Vallarta Pride. In May, the water is warm, travel deals are plenty and there are fewer crowds. The high winter season has just ended and locals working in the tourism-dependent port city are ready for a party. Late May is a great time to visit Puerto Vallarta in Mexico - just in time for its Pride celebration.
